When It Was Cool Retro Pop Culture

Tonya says it best, "Wouldn't it great if we could just ignore away parts of our life like they did with the whole Rocky 5 movie?" Yeah, this movie isn't as terrible as I remembered but it isn't great either. Rocky and Adrianne are back in the poor house thanks to some stupid shenanigans Paulie pulled while they were in Russia during Rocky IV. Also, Rocky it seems, got his brains beat out in that movie and they don't work no more, yo. Rocky ignores his son, who has somehow aged five years since Rocky went to Russian, fought Drago, and returned home. Instead, he's enamored by a new guy, Tommy Gunn (Tommy Morrison) but, wow, does that go wrong: Enter silly villain Duke. (No, not that Duke, another Duke just to confuse things further).
