    I mean... why re-edit the first one? Rocky 4 has silly bits in it which is why Sly wanted to re-edit it.
    The hands that grip.

      As was already mentioned, why do a director's cut of Rocky 1? It's one of the few movies I consider to be a "perfect" movie (along with Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Ghostbusters, and Back to the Future.) Literally any change would be for the worse.

        Interesting. That wasn't the case back then. Stallone was huge on the robot back when they were doing the movie and he supposedly filmed a bunch of scenes with Paulie basically making it his bride. Perhaps he's been razzed too much about it over the years and now claims it wasn't his idea. But it's been well documented that it was Stallone behind the robot and everybody on set was kinda like "uh, what?" and they cut a bunch of stuff out featuring it.

          I love Sly, but he has a very selective memory when it comes to his career.

          I honestly don’t know why he’d want to cut the robot out anyway. I thought it was a pretty iconic part of Rocky IV.

            The robot is like a time capsule.

            And, it was totally logical, that someone would buy one for fun back then.

              I hope the director’s cut ends up being 90% robot and 10% Rocky vs. Drago.

                That would be pretty hilarious. I'd watch!
