It turns out 2006’s Rocky Balboa was not the end the line for our favorite boxer after all.  The film, like no other sequel before it, rediscovered the edgy, independent spirit of the 1976 masterpiece that captured the heart of the world.  When audiences walked out of the theater this time around, there was a collective feeling that the Rocky franchise had gracefully come full circle.  Writer, actor, director and producer Sylvester Stallone tells Original UnOriginal that his new Rocky musical will take Rocky fans “an extra 360 degrees.”

“I don’t know…it’s like, ugh, there’s no nail in Rocky’s coffin yet?  You know in the last one we got da stuff outta da basement, now we gotta get some stuff outta da closet,” says Stallone.

Rocky: The Musical is like nothing Rocky fans have every experienced before.  Here Rocky faces new challenges in a fast-paced world that is always a step ahead of him.  Rocky Jr.’s new homosexual relationship with a Russian figure skating coach ignites a bitter feud that puts Sly back on the ice for the first time in over thirty years.  While searching for answers to the prejudice inside him, the former champion must come to terms with not only his son’s sexual identity, but his also his own.

Helping Stallone through his first original stage play, Rocky film veteran Burt Young reprises his role as Rocky’s ill-tempered, alcoholic brother-in-law Paulie.   The supporting cast includes Broadway veterans Harvey Fierstein and Nathan Lane, with music by none other than Sir Elton John.  

Fierstein, who appears in only one pivotal scene as the ghost of Mickey, sings the Elton-penned “You Got Heart Kid.”  In the scene an angelic Mickey hovers above a troubled and tearful Rocky praying at his bedside.  The song, holding strong on iTunes singles charts, gives Rocky the courage to tell Paulie that, after leading a prominently heterosexual lifestyle his entire life, he might be gay.

An always seemingly out-of-breath Fierstein tells us that while his scene is strong, Sly and Burt’s is "extremely intense." 

“Every night I have to scream at the technicians to get me out of the air and those damn wings off so I can hurry to see Burt go after Sly with his bat," says an energetic Fierstein with two cigarettes hanging out of his mouth.   "When Sly sings and dances his way through ‘Oh, Come On Paulie’ to the music of ‘Yellow Brick Road,’ it brings tears to my eyes.”

It’s perhaps Nathan Lane, as an injured, down-on-his/her-luck transgendered figure skater Adrian, who has made the most radical transformation of his career.  Lane reportedly spent four disciplined months dieting and exercising his way down to a sleek 115 pounds and adding a small silicon B cup to his newly chiseled frame.

“The food and exercise was horrible, but I love my new tits and so does the champ,” says the prolific stage actor with a burst of his trademark laughs straight out of The Birdcage.  "But seriously, when we recreated the scene on the ice from the first film, I didn't feel transgendered at all.  I think audiences will see past that too."

Though the Broadway Rocky is drawing mixed reviews, from “an expressive journey through a simple man’s soul” to “an enormous, steaming pile of shit than misses the toilet bowl with every painful movement,” theater-goers are still packing the house every night.  Stallone is quick to argue that even the harshest critics have not dismissed the sheer power of the show’s finale where Rocky faces his deadliest enemy yet – himself.

“The house is up on their feet, applauding their asses off and screaming while Rocky is beating da shit out of himself,” comments Stallone before he punches himself in the face three times.  

A bit dazed, he looks this reporter dead in the eye and says, “it’s metaphorical.”

Rocky: The Musical will enjoy a sold-out run through the spring of next year, right before Stallone begins shooting the eagerly anticipated sequel to the 1984 comedy classic Rhinestone with Dolly Parton.

From Best of Craigslist:

Isn't it funny how most w4m ads are like checklists of requirements. These women think finding a guy is like ordering a sandwich – a little more height please, easy on the love of sports, and can you throw in a weekend house in the mountains and a willingness to support some other guy's children? 

If men wrote their m4w ads the same way, we would expect to see something like this: 

Looking to meet the woman of my dreams. Someone who appreciates me for who I am. I love big TV's, big trucks, baseball caps, and wife-beater tanks. I love going out with my friends to get drunk at strip clubs too. I'm looking for a nice woman who is not looking to jump into a relationship too soon but who knows what it means to be sexy and take care of her partner. Please no BBW's (sorry) but you won't look good on my arm when I wear a white t-shirt. 

You must love dogs and my beer can collection, my dogs, my cans, and I are a package, so if you're not into them then please move on. I like to let all 6 of my dogs sleep in my bed with me, so hopefully you don't have a problem with that. 

Deal breakers: 

• likes to shop too much 
• obsessed with height (i am short) 
• fat 
• talks about yourself too much 
• neediness 
• always wanting to talk about the relationship 
• small breasts (sorry, there is nothing sexier than grabbing onto a nice pair) 
• doesnt like to cook for her man 
• bossiness 
• nagging 
• always wanting to get up early in the morning 
• fat 
• intolerance of me and my habits 
• pressure to have kids 

Turn ons: 

• thin 
• large breasts (very sexy) 
• quiet 
• beer drinker 
• has her own friends and won't try to make me watch chick flicks 
• smells good 
• likes football 
• doesn't expect me to pay all the time 
• intelligent but not too intelligent (i dont like nerdy girls) 
• rich father 
• thin 
• doesn't have a relationship calendar, i.e. doesnt wonder after 3 months if we are going in the right direction. 

Can you find me a woman like that??? LOL 

• Location: Reality

• it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

On June 6, 2008, a riot ensued at a stunt orchestrated by Baron Cohen and the producers of the film as they staged a “Blue Collar Brawlin’” in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Patrons were lured to an event billed as cage fighting, held at a Convention Center, by print and Craigslist advertisements, promoting “hot girls”, $1 beer and $5 admission. Approximately 1500 people attended the event, and were greeted by signs that informed them that they were being filmed. No cell phones, video, or cameras were allowed inside. Instead of hot girls and cage fighting, the acts taking place became homosexual in nature, and people threw chairs and beer at the performers. The performers were Brüno (Baron Cohen) under the ironic gimmick, “Straight Dave” and an unknown actor portraying his opponent.
