noypiblazer Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 altho avildsen did not made another rock movie after that first one. avildsen did made 3 karate kid movies. malabo ako sa lunch eb, altho tignan ko kung makatakas ako ditow... erferferf yes that is correct...John G. Avildsen made the Karate Kid movies with Pat Morita and Ralph Macchio after Rocky....eventually Avildsen directed 'Rocky V' which roots back to Rocky's humble beginnings as well as Sly Stallone's humble pie beginnings. Although the film 'Rocky Balboa' (the 6th) was made by Sly more on nostalgia as well as the upcoming 'John Rambo' in '08 speaking of Pat Morita and Ralph Macchio....the late Pat Morita came to prominence in the 1970s tv series 'Happy Days' while Ralph Macchio was discovered as a movie star potential in the 1970s 'Eight Is Not Enough' speaking of 'Happy Days'....Henry Wrinkler as the Fonz was popular and he was even compared with John Travolta's Vinnie Barbarino in 'Welcome Back, Kotter'...both shows in the mid 70s...of course John Travolta became more popular than Henry Wrinkler later on in films like 'Saturday Night Fever' and 'Grease'. Henry Wrinkler took bit parts in the movies such as Adam Sandler's 'CLICK' recently while Travolta got the commanding starring roles in major films. speaking of 'Welcome Back, Kotter'...Gabe Kaplan (Mr. Kotter) competed with the captain of NBC, Robert Conrad in 'Battle of the Network Stars' ...remember that ? Robert Conrad was so active in those years...after his best remembered role in 'wild wild west' he starred as pappy boyington in 'baa baa black sheep' also in the 70s. Robert Conrad was critical of the Will Smith's film 'wild wild west'.....Robert Conrad guested in Jeanne Young's Spin-A-Win and Joe Quirino's Seeing Stars with JQ taena, stock knowledge ko lahat yan walang research research, batang 70s yata to !

gadalej Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 My most memorable movies of the 70's, sergio leon's spagetti westerns. for a fist full of dollars, a few dollars more and the good, the bad and the ugly. these films made clint eastwood the legend that he is. he was the first western movie lead to ever draw and shoot first. also "once upon a time in the west", this sergio leon film was memorable because of henry fonda's portrayal of the man in black. he was totally evil. Dirty Harry, clint eastwood's dirty harry calahan with his trusty .44 magnum was the ultimate hardass cop. do you guys still remember the blaxploitation movies? jim kelly as the black samurai, shaft, and pam grier? was pam grier cleopatra jones? or those charlton heston sci fi classics? planet of the apes? soilent green? and the Omega Man? will smith's upcoming "I am legend" is a remake of omega man, which was also a remake of a 1967 film staring Vincent Price, "the last man on earth".

flyingdutchman Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 add ko na rin ang ROCKY (1976) - the movie about an underdog named Rocky Balboa who 'went the distance' with the Heavyweight Champion of the World Apollo Creed. Sly Stallone was also the underdog in terms of movie writing scripts, no major Hollywood studios wanted to do the movie except for Paramount and initially they had a differnet actor in mind to play Rocky but Sylvester Stallone inssisted on playing the part. The movie went on to become Best Picture with Best Director award to John G. Avildsen along with a Best Actor nomination for Sylvester Stallone. The movie immortalized Sylvester Stallone and it's the start of a six series of 'Rocky' movies. Some other memorables and lines from the movie: Enter The Dragon. "Boards don't fight back." Taxi Driver. "You talking to me?" Deer Hunter. "Mao! " Quote Link to comment

I believe he was one of the producers of the highly successful 'Macguyver' of the 80's. His mate, ron howard, also gave up acting and is now a successful director. Quote Link to comment
protein_gusher Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 My most memorable movies of the 70's, sergio leon's spagetti westerns. for a fist full of dollars, a few dollars more and the good, the bad and the ugly. these films made clint eastwood the legend that he is. he was the first western movie lead to ever draw and shoot first. also "once upon a time in the west", this sergio leon film was memorable because of henry fonda's portrayal of the man in black. he was totally evil. Dirty Harry, clint eastwood's dirty harry calahan with his trusty .44 magnum was the ultimate hardass cop. do you guys still remember the blaxploitation movies? jim kelly as the black samurai, shaft, and pam grier? was pam grier cleopatra jones? or those charlton heston sci fi classics? planet of the apes? soilent green? and the Omega Man? will smith's upcoming "I am legend" is a remake of omega man, which was also a remake of a 1967 film staring Vincent Price, "the last man on earth". trivia question noon: what was the local version of "planet of the apes" starring FPJ? answer: "daigdig ng mga api"! hehehe Quote Link to comment
