Rest in peace Carl Weathers (January 14, 1948 - February 1, 2024) 😭 Thank you for bringing all of us so much joy with your characters!

"You fight great, but I'm a great fighter" R.I.P Carl Weathers 😢

Made me feel extra old to see Addie not recognize either Mr. T or Hulk Hogan.

RIP Burgess Meredith (November 16, 1907 - September 9, 1997), aged 89 RIP Tony Burton (March 23, 1937 - February 25, 2016), aged 78 RIP Burt Young (April 30, 1940 - October 8, 2023), aged 83 RIP Carl Weathers (January 14, 1948 - February 1, 2024), aged 76 You will remembered as legends.

The CIA must have had Carl pushing too many pencils. RIP champ.

"Today is an incredibly sad day for me. I'm so torn up. I can't even tell you. I'm just trying to hold it in. Carl Weathers was such an integral part of my life, my success, everything about it. When he walked into that room and I saw him for the first time, I saw greatness. But I didn't realize how great, I never could have accomplished what we did with Rocky without him. He was absolutely brilliant. His voice, his size, his power, his athletic ability, but more importantly, his heart, his soul. It’s a horrible loss. I'm standing here in front of this painting because it was probably the last moment we were ever in the ring together, and I'll never forget it. He was magic and I was so fortunate to be part of his life. So, Apollo... Keep punching."

"There IS no tomorrow!" words to live by. Rest in peace, champ.

When I was a kid, I had Rocky I-V on VHS tape. I recorded them off of HBO, they weren’t even official. I was a fat kid, I got bullied and picked on. Apollo Creed training Rocky in “Rocky III” inspired me to start working out. I pretended Apollo was training me. I was poor, so I took my old basketball pole and poured concrete in 5 gallon buckets (of course I didn’t fill it up, just enough) to make my own barbell. Now I’m 6’3” 220 lbs and I’m running triathlons. I always think of Rocky and Apollo when I’m thinking of quitting. These movies changed my life. After hearing Carl Weathers died yesterday, I saw this pop up in my KZfaq feed. I’m new to your channel. Great reaction.

I'm convinced us old timers love these reactions because it's like watching the movies we love with our daughters again. As always love your reactions.

Thanks, Carl, for being larger than life... Goodbye, Apollo... RIP

Addie is SOO invested……in Reference to Rocky and Creed she kept saying “I love the two of us working together” 😂😂😂.

R.I.P. Carl Weathers. Thank you for the memories.

The Dancing Destroyer, The King of Sting, The Count of Monte Fisto, The Master of Disaster, The one and only Apollo Creed! Rest well you Legend.

Found out last night that Carl Weathers passed away. RIP to a wonderful actor.

Carl Weathers had so many acts in his life, and he knocked them all out of the park. I am so grateful for the memories. RIP Mr. Weathers.

Rocky III: I’m a very emotional movie Rocky IV: Hold my beer Fun Facts: This is Mr. T's first acting role (impressive performance btw) and he took his mother to see it. During the scene when he disrespects Adrian she stood up, told him she raised him better than that and stormed off LOL Also Mickey and Apollo said to Rocky "You're the best". Some songs were written for this movie including Joe Esposito's "You're the best" which ended up being used in Karate Kid after Stallone chose Survivor's "The eye of the tiger" instead.

RIP Carl Weathers (1948-2024) Rocky III (1982) continues the saga of Rocky Balboa. Mickey's death after Rocky loses his fight against Clubber Lang was heartbreaking but Rocky training with Apollo Creed was both awesome & heartwarming at the same time because that's when their friendship begins. See you soon for Rocky IV (1985).

You know stallion it's too bad we gotta get older.. RIP Carl Weathers

Thank you Carl Weathers for all the great moments you brought us. From Apollo's charisma to Dillon's handshake with Arnie to his stew eating ways and his one handed golf prowess. And many more... "It's too bad we gotta get old".... too bad indeed Apollo. RIP champ!

Burt Young actually was a boxer. That other guy is known professionally as "Hulk" Hogan. What can one say about Carl Weathers? Such a bright star in our sky. The man overflowed with charisma. Instantly likable, and sorely missed. Rest in peace.

Everytime I watch Rocky 3, it reminds me of Rhonda Rousey. She became champ, let it go to her head, then the challengers really started to swell. And while they were hungry for that belt, Rousey was making Hardees//Carl Jr. commercials, biting down on triple bacon grease burgers with her O-face on. She lost the eye of the tiger, and it was a self-chosen decision.

Dedicated to Carl Weathers January 14, 1948 - February 1, 2024

R.I.P. Carl Weathers, “Action Jackson” ❤️👊🏼

RIP Carl Weathers, Rocky was one of my favorite movies as a young teen adolescence and loving Happy Gilmore seeing he passed away yesterday hurt. Him passing away is right up there with losing Robin Williams for me.

This is kinda perfect timing with the very sad passing of Carl Weathers, such a sad loss. RIP Apollo Creed.

I really liked Carl Weathers in Predator and Happy Gilmore as well. And, of course, Rocky IV. You'll get to that soon enough. RIP actor Carl Weathers. 😢 -OG

Seeing Mickey go was tough, Mr T played such a great villain. But for me he will always be B A Baracus from the A team. I pity the fool😂

RIP Carl Weathers. I hope you continue watching the series still. There will be more tears shed for sure.

THE EYE OF THE TIGER...It's unbelievable how many subtle twists & turns in the plots of all of the Rocky movies, and it's really special to see how Addie connects with Rocky's emotional relationships with Adrian, Mickey & Apollo and how they all will affect his performance in the ring! It touches my heart in so many ways, from the emotional scenes with Adrian and with Mickey to the gritty, daring challenges by Apollo...If you ever want to see a movie that will really MOTIVATE you, make sure you watch ROCKY III!

RIP Carl Weathers “There is no tomorrow”

I still can't believe the Hulkster put Rocky over. R.I.P. Carl Weathers

"You fight great, but I'm a great fighter..." I always loved that line from Apollo. RIP Mr. Weathers...

I can’t believe Carl Weathers passed. Dillon from Predator, Action Jackson, Apollo Creed, he has cemented his legacy in pop culture. RIP.

You know the franchise is gold when you're still crying at the third installment.

R.I.P 😢😭😞 The Legend (Carl Weathers)

Three and four are probably my favorite of the original five movies. Rocky and Apollo’s relationship is so great and it really grows from here. I love it ❤️

I will never understand the Critics at the time that said Stalone couldn't act or direct. The absolute anguish Stalone portrays at the death of Mickey is soul wrenching. What a phenomenal performance.

Carl Weathers - he brought strength and heart and love into all of his projects. The Rocky franchise, Predator, Happy Gilmore, The Mandalorian, and in truth the world are better due to his works of dedication and talent. RIP Carl, you will be missed!

The best thing about every single Rocky movie is the "villain" is always top notch and is always played to perfection. Just enough of hamming it up. Mr. T. was perfect as Clubber Lang! As is every Rocky villain perfect as said villain.

The 80's really shines through on Rocky 3 & 4. Stallone reached an outrageous 2% body fat to film this movie. May Mr. Weathers have the most peaceful of rests.

I've commented this a LOT on other videos and tribute posts before, but I gotta say it again, as it's a hill I will die on. Back in 2017, I had the honor of meeting Carl Weathers in real life. He came to a convention with Dolph Lundgren (Ivan Drago from Rocky IV) and he was easily - without a doubt - one of the nicest celebrities you could ever meet. He was everything you'd expect him to be based on the movies: funny, friendly, and just an overall awesome guy. It's been at least a month as I write this and I still can't get over that he's gone. I know I only met him once, and for a minute or two, but I walked away happy. I never forgot how awesome he was and I never will as long as I live. RIP, I miss you, Carl.

Addie: "Rocky always cheers me up." Us: "Yeah... About that."

Interestingly, the actor who plays Paulie had been a professional boxer. How weird was it for him, who had real life experience as a decent professional boxer, to act in a boxing movie playing an unathletic drunken shlub who doesn't belong anywhere near a boxing ring, while Stallone (as far as I know) never did any actual boxing beyond just training for the role? In the early scene where Paulie is swinging at Rocky in anger... if the two actors had actually fought for real as themselves at that moment, Paulie would likely have destroyed Stallone!!

While I don't love Rocky 3 as much as the first two, I still think it's a pretty fun watch, and it's a good film. Also, rest in peace, Carl Weathers. You were great.

This movie showed us how real men can openly bawl. It takes a real man with real love to hurt like that. Stallone's performance in all these movies never disappoints; inspiring, teaching, and motivating. Just learned about Carl Weathers' passing. The guy was a real champ. RIP Apollo.

RIP Carl Weathers. What a time to be running through the Rocky movies. Especially considering the rest of it

"I pity the fool!" Mr. T is a class act, the opposite of his Clubber Lang character. This was his start and he carried on with his catchphrase to become a TV icon in the series "The A-Team". RIP Carl Weathers (January 14, 1948 - February 1, 2024).

What I thought was always quite prophetic about this film, is that the Original Rocky film was inspired by the fight between Chuck Wepner and Mohammed Ali, but the relationship between Mickey and Rocky is very reminiscent of Mike Tyson and Cus D'Amato, except it was Cus that had Mike Tyson living with him. This film was released in 1982. In 1985 Cus D'Amato died, not able to live long enough to see his prodigy Mike Tyson then go on to become the youngest heavyweight champion in 1986, at just 20 years and 4 months of age.

I just LOVE seeing a whole new generation fall in love with Rocky - ALL ❤!

All of the characters in the Rocky films are so well written that you can't help but feel the emotional weight of their joys and sorrows. The death of Mickey still gets me every time and I've been watching this since the day it first came out. I've said in the past that while Star Wars was always my favorite film series, Rocky is the one that taught me about life. There are so many nuggets of wisdom that can apply to all of life and not just boxing. Adrian's "fight" in this was one of those moments. I won't spoil anything, but I think her conversation here is my second favorite which only comes behind one from Rocky Balboa (the sixth one). Thank you for sharing this awesome reaction! And RIP Carl Weathers. So sad to see the loss of a legend who inspired me from a young age!

Wow the painting in the end was behind stallone as he paid tribute to carl today i didn't even realize

RIP Carl Weathers! 😢💔😇 Being a Philly chic born and raised, I've binge watched your first 3 Rocky's and you're adorable! Keep going til the end of Creed. There great!! Fun Fact... The scene in Rocky 2 when Adrian says Win....they show that and montage at every home game of the Eagles. Gets everyone so pumped up!! ❤

RIP Carl Weather's. Watched your Rocky II Reaction about an hour before they announced his death

RIP Apollo, I love that he’s working with US too ❤

RIP Carl ❤❤❤❤😢😢 everything you did was pure magic on screen , you were a true man's man and lived the life of a King❤❤❤ RIP

I was an incredibly young kid when this came out (still young enough to not have seen it in the theater). But I can tell you this.... for those of us that grew up in the 80s, this and "Rocky IV" simply WERE our childhoods. R.I.P. Carl Weathers. I'll never forget you Apollo. You're the best.

Rocky III is *absolutely* my favorite movie in the franchise. It avoids a lot of the pitfalls of sequels and makes the first three movies a true trilogy. Every character from the first two movies gets some new development, new facets of their characters, a new way to shine. Adrian, especially, had that fantastic scene on the beach with Rocky. You'd never guess, from the first two movies, that she had it in her, but it still fits with her so well. And, of course, seeing Apollo in his new role as Rocky's trainer and new best friend fits so well with *both* their character arcs. The first two movies are as much about Apollo as they are about Rocky, so this was a great direction for both of them to take. The franchise just wouldn't have been the same without Carl Weathers.

“There is no tomorrow!” Ahh! So many great lines in this one 🤩

There will be a heavy heart watching the rest of these reactions. The best we can do is remember all the great memories and feelings Carl Weathers brought us over the years and keep his memory alive by continuing to watch these movies. RIP

15:56 such an emotional scene, the "we got more to do" line especially hurts 😢

Rest in peace, Carl Weathers. First person I thought of when I heard Carl had passed was Sly Stallone. Before he began his acting career, Carl had played college football and and played for the Oakland Raiders(1970 to 1974).

Can't wait for Addie to review Rocky 4.

Yes, this film was such a great role for Carl Weathers. Thanks for all the great showmanship, may you rest in peace.

I must say, Addie, I really enjoy your Rocky reactions.

1st Rocky reaction I've seen since the news of Carl Weather's passing). Ugh! As a 51 yr. old Gen Xer who grew up w/Rocky & hv seen each movie countless times, Carl Weather's passing hits. As a kid, I had the poster of Rocky & Apollo posing / facing each other w/the gloves up in my bedroom. Apollo Creed was such a great character. There are some roles that are just meant for a particular actor & nobody cld hv done it as well (Carl Weathers as Apollo, Louis Gossett Jr. as GSgt Foley in "An Officer & a Gentlemen). RIP Carl Weathers.

R.I.P. to the great Carl Weathers. Its so incredible the timing of this reaction, especially considering Apollo's role in this movie and the character development. This was special for someone like me that followed his whole career since I was a 6 year old kid.

This was a lot of fun. Can't wait to experience Rocky IV with you.

I love how much you are loving these movies ❤❤ they all brought us so much joy and happiness back in the day and even now whenever I watch them I still get all the feels!! However, today is a sad day for the Rocky/Creed family and we ding the bell 🔔 one last time for the champ! #RipCreed

The older I get the more I like this one. The message of having the strength to change yourself is so powerful!

The statue is back at the Art Museum but down near the street.

In 2005 I was working for a security company on the Conan O’Brian show in Chicago for a week and Mr.T/Clubber Lang was there. I wasn’t able to meet him but a lot for the crew said he was one of the nicest people to meet

4:39 "You could box yourself." He did. Burt Young was a boxer in the Marines before becoming an actor. He says he also had 14 professional fights and was undefeated before retiring.

I love your empathy. Sly knows how to pull on the heartstrings like no other.

Believe it or not that brief shot of Rocky on the Muppet show was footage of Stallone’s real life guest star appearance with the Muppets. Stallone was giving some random groupies some basic punching lessons teaching them how the throw the old one two. For this movie, Stallone actually had Jim Henson come in for an ADR session just for that one scene so you can hear Kermit saying, “It’s the Muppet Show with our very special guest star, Rocky Balboa! Yaaaaaayyyyyy!!!!”

Rip legend. No one was like Carl Weather. One of a kind. Side note, I met Mr T in the late 80s when I was a little kid. Nicest guy ever.

Addie, My Daddy took me to see this in the theatre when I was 9 years old and I teared up my eyes when Mickey died. I'm a grown man of 51 years old and I have seen this movie numerous times. I still to this day, tear up when Micky dies. God Bless..

I met Carl Weathers at Star Wars Celebration in London last year, SUPER nice guy 🥰. MTFBWY Carl 🙏

Mickey death always has me in this film. Burges Meredith was an amazing actor. Burges played Penguin in the 60’s Batman tv show. R.I.P. to Carl Weathers who recently passed away and such an amazing actor.

#RIPCarlWeathers. Breaks my heart. Damn I love his movies and his Star Wars character

Such a wholesome reaction. This is one of my favorite movies in the franchise. Even though we didn't find out the results of that last fight here we will find out what happened in one of the later movies and it's a touching moment, really well done. And that goes for you as well Addie, nicely done reaction!

RIP, Carl Weathers, Apollo Creed, 1948-2024.

Did you know you can actually see that statue on the side of the steps of the building @ 8:48 which is The Philadelphia Museum of Art. And they now got a small Rocky shop. I’m from Philadelphia by the way

I WATCHED when Sly was on the Muppet Show (and, of course, Kermit saying, "Rocky Balboa!" was laid over the original audio from the show). It was a big deal. As a kid, the Muppets didn't have a lot of celebrities that I was into. But Stallone sent me an autographed photo when I was 9 because I'd sent him a fan letter.

"This guy will kill you to death..."!!! I LOVE this line!

Fun Fact: Mr. T is actually a super nice person IRL, and has done more for children's charities than almost anyone, raising millions, visiting hospitals. He's a superstar.

Fun fact, 4:26 -- Burt Young (R.I.P. last year, rough few months for Stallone, adding Carl Weathers to the sad list) was actually a boxer. He served a tour of duty in the United States Marine Corps from 1957 to 1959; while in the Marine Corps, he boxed regularly, winning 32 of 34 boxing bouts

28:07 I totally forgot that Rocky catches Clubber’s hand 😲 That was awesome! 🤩

_Rocky_ was a big part of my childhood. Seeing the actors pass away really feels like losing a part of my past. God rest the souls of Carl Weathers (Apollo), Burt Young (Paulie), and Tony Burton (Duke).

Paulie: “What’d I do to them?” Another great line 😂

This is my personal favorite of all the Rocky movies.

4:28 the Irony of this scene. Burt Young was a seriously accomplished fighter in real life. He had a very impressive record

I like seeing new generation watch and love rocky

Thank you Carl Weathers for shaping us 80’s kids into adults Apollo Creed is a childhood hero for all of Us . Rest in Paradise

Addie, I remember commenting on your very first reactions to BTTF and telling you to stick with it and the audience will come. I love being right. haha 😂 You're SO good at this and it's really cool to see you get rewarded for your hard work. These Rocky reactions are superb. Thank you for creating these. 🙏

RIP to the champ, the greatest legendary actor Carl Weathers (1948-2024) he'll be forever missed and remembered.

This may be my favorite Rocky movie, but this is going to be bittersweet to watch. RIP Carl.

I love Mr. T. He is my favorite character in Rocky. Just raw energy.

I was stunned yesterday with the announcement. Carl Weathers' passing hits hard (awkward pun acknowledged in this context). I was a kid when these movies came out, and Carl Weathers was a bigger than life personality on the big screen. I was thrilled when I watched The Mandalorian, and enjoyed the bits of the 'making of' and directors conversations related to that series. Getting to see Carl Weathers be bigger than life behind the scenes as himself was priceless. RIP Mr. Weathers.

Adrian's speech on the beach really makes this movie IMO.

Thanks, Addie, for sharing this reaction. I liked all that I've seen of Carl Weathers'(Apollo) performances, and am sorry to hear of his passing. I previously knew Burgess Meredith(Micky) from one of my favorite Twilight Zone episodes and for playing the Penguin in the '60s Batman TV series and feature movie.
