The first Rocky was the best by a mile.
PS - I think the female character's name WAS Adrian. Strange, I know.

Yeh one was a geniunely great film & obviously all the sequels lack that spark but I have to confess to having a soft spot for III with Mr T as Clubber Laing-he was just a geat baddie.
As for IV well it was a bit too glitzy for my tastes & the all the Cold War conotations with the Proud Yankee against the Bully Boy Commie was a bit too obvious.

My personal favourite is "Rocky VII - Adrian's Revenge", but I don't see an option to vote for it.
I'm a huge fan of the Rocky series, i'd have to say that my personal favourites are IV & II.
Ivan Drago - "He is not human.....he is like a piece of Iron" (Translate into Russian) ...that was after Balboa cut him. 
Speaking of Drago, he must have the best nickname ever... 'Death From Above' Thats bloody sensational.

Come on! Rocky III is magnificent!
It had the fight with "Thunderlips", chillingly portrayed by Hulk Hogan, showing some brilliant acting skills that were showcased in later years in such hits as Suburban Commando and the hit series Thunder In Paradise. Come on kids, that was some first class growling on display.
Who can forget the icy stares dished out to the Rock as he enters Apollo's old gym. And then, inexplicably, they all love him instantly. If I could just have a word to the continuity expert for a moment ...
Pauly - Burt Young - if you were such a pr|ck, and you hung around boxers for years, surely you're getting tonked at one stage or another. Is there any reason Apollo doesn't haul off and smack him one?
But, the winner in the Rocky III ham stakes has to be B A Barracus himself, Mr T. Is he reading an autocue or what? My favourite moment, interviewed before the second fight, the sportscaster turns to Clubber Lang and says: "Clubber, what's your prediction for this fight?"
Cut to a close up of Clubber, who turns to the camera and snarls:
"Pain."
I defy anyone not to crack up laughing at that stage.
