Hah, that's a great flick! But... just like I chose Dolph over Sly, I'd pick the Porsche, not the Mini. :wink:

We also find out why the "Training Montage" and "War" tracks were different in the soundtrack album and the movie: DiCola started on the score way before the movie was complete and these were recorded prior to fit the album, then when the picture was locked, DiCola re-worked and re-recorded the cues to fit the editing perfectly...

Did you know that Brigitte Nielsen's character (Ludmilla Drago) wasn't in the script? Her talking was done by Nicoli Koloff (Michael Pataki).

One of the benefits of being Stallones girlfriend, being written into the scripts of his movies?

Of course! But that was actually a good move I think, it made an interesting dynamic between Drago who doesn't speak and his wife who can't shut up and seems to have more of a relationship with her other partner in crime...

While Dolph always laughs about Ivan Drago probably still being in Siberia, Stallone himself gives his take on the character's life:
Ivan Drago I always believed went back to Russia where he was scorned and badgered into a position of disgrace and eventually succumbed to alcoholism and unfortunately then suicide.

Ivan Drago is dead!

6. What happened to Paulie’s robot in Rocky 4? Did you get to take it home after the film? That was awesome…

6. Brian, Actually I wish that I had taken that robot and crushed it in a nearby trash compactor. I don’t know what I was thinking, but I had seen that robot perform at a party and was so intrigued I thought ‘My god people haven’t seen something like this since Robby the Robot.’ I got carried away. I would’ve been better off having a vacuum cleaner; at least it would’ve been more in character. Thanks anyway.

Ivan Drago is in Siberia, that is so funny :lol:
that's horrible if Stallone said that (although i understand - he's only joking) - that is so funny.
Ivan Drago is not dead, he is still alive and well (in Siberia) - :cry: :D .
