Rocky & Philadelphia Morning

[LB99971]

Love this scene so much! And that music when he has to get started.

[mcTEKKERS]

which rocky film is this????

[LB99971]

@mcTEKKERS the Original. The one that started it all. And my favorite. The last Rocky is great to because he has a new challenge to beat: his age. And he wins again for the last time!

[mcTEKKERS]

@LB99971 Ah rite ... thanks .... definitely getting this on dvd

[speccyninja]

raw egg drink *cringe*

[ZR600openmod]

Best Movie ever made. Between the music selection and the thought Stallone put into this perfect trilogy this will go down as my personal favorite as all time.. Legendary

[LA6616]

if apolo got up that early and ran, he would get arrested!

[MrFuat20]

hes wearing alstar shoes awesome !!!

[shampoohoo]

Love the token gesture stretching.

[757330]

This is the price you pay to be a champion. Nearly all of us are not willing to pay it.

[tzanegmr]

fuck this. i'm not going to ruin it by watching this scene on youtube. i'll just watch the whole movie again !!!

[koron44]

i'm wearing the same shoes :)

His first attempt at the Philadelphia Art Museum's staircase, the start of a long, tough road.

This could have easily been the opening of the movie, followed by the fanfare theme and letters, then his fight with Spider Ricco.

[mmoore0325]

One of my all-time favorite scenes in film. I love when the full melody kicks in around 1:58. That's what sticks in my head when I think of this scene.

[crcracker1]

This is where the legend all began!!

[leon6266]

omg was he drinking egg? :):) i cant do that even my PT told me its good for workout

[matfdp123]

@leon6266 There is the difference between you and a champion

[TheMagedMan]

Classic scene. Full of many emotions. Very inspirational.

[TheSlystallonefan]

Powerful scene. Brings joy and tears to me. A true message in this scene even though there is no dialogue but its the idea that a person has to trust in himself and fight the odds to get where they want to get. WOW WHAT A SCENE.

[louissayshi]

I have to agree with Eric. I like this scene even more than the scene of Rocky triumphantly scaling the museum steps later (which is awesome). This scene carries something earnest and poignant, and despite the failure (gasping for air at the museum steps)--perhaps because of it--it makes my heart go out for Rocky, for the underdog challenger in us all. Love the raw gruntings. The raw-ness of truth, dream, and determination.

[popizm]

thank you rocky.

im 33 now and this scene comes to my mind 3-4 times a week since ive seen it the first time. and i cant even remember that. maybe i was 5 years old.

im sure it made me win a lot of times at life!

(im not a winner but thanks to moments like that im not a loser too)

[clazza01]

@popizm you are an amazing person to write what you wrote i too think of a scene in letter to btezhnev a few times a month, the scene which has elaine looking over the water, i play the musicin my head

this rocky scene is one of my fave rocky scenes xxx

[Drevorub]

этот фильм просто шедевр!

привет из России!

[backtoharmony]

Thank you I loved this more than you know.

[ericrunningback]

i believe this is the best scene in all movies. This is the start of the legend, the will to get up at 400 and take a hard grueling run in a 28 degrees weather. So inspirational.

[kingravlos]

@ericrunningback i liked the scene where the loan shark drives away in the black car and Rockys left there walking down that long road with the black gating...

[tunandrice]

@ericrunningback agree agreeee

[LB99971]

@ericrunningback i think I agree with you. This was the real Rocky, the bum who tries to beat the odds. The music is perfect because there is a sadness to watch this man struggling to accomplish something he knows everybody doubts he can. But he pushes on in spite of this obstacles and you just feel for him.

[juanisabastard]

@Maxioteque hey bro thanks

im glad u put this up dude

thanks

[Wildcock23]

I'm from St. Paul, Minnesota.... 28 degrees is not cold at all =) but 4:00 in the morning sucks

[Bird33Larry]

Todo mundo aqui fala ''Isso me faz querer correr as 4 da manha'' minha gente voces devem bota o dispertador toca as 4 da madrugada,ai ele toca voces desligam,um video desse nao vale de nada quando a realidade bate,quando saimos da nossa zona de conforto oque vale é apenas oque realmente somos e oque realmente queremos,esse video nao é um ideal pelo qual alguem levantaria a essa hora para correr

[RaceIsOpen]

incredible song and timing...incredible movie! love the Rocky spirit that's even in all our Philly teams! 

[samcagz]

its rocky whos made me determined and give me inspiration love you rocky and you to rocky marciano 2 favirote boxers even though rocky balboa dosnt exist this scene makes me wanna jog in the mornin

[krasmast]

Yes, this where it began, from botton to the top, against the power. Man I love this.

[thehudd69]

my favourite scene from any of the rockys. this is where it all began

[gergej89]

why so early? because of the traffic?

[jib2182]

@gergej89 Maybe he has to work during the day?

Doesnt he work collecting debts?

[PeterGunztv]

@jib2182 @gergej89 When he got the title shot, his boss let him take off from collecting debts to train. So, he only wakes up at 4am just for the hell of it. If you look up Mike Tyson's early training videos on youtube, you'll see he also went for a run at 4am every morning.

I love Rocky!!!!
