    You can't do that, man!

    Besides, Rocky II was pretty awful, especially compared to the first one

    I think you were thinking about the re-release, 'The Special Edition' which was released on 1980 with added scenes inside the mothership. But yeah, it was released on 1977, the same year that Star Wars came. Steven Spielberg was nominated as Best Director for the first time for this film, which ironically wasn't nominated as Best Film. But hey, they needed to make room for 'The Goodbye Girl'! :lol:

    this guy's list is solid, but he got it all wrong in ranking the top five which should have been the bottom five.
