Last Exit on Mainstream

In which our heroes talk s*** about the 2023 Netflix documentary "Sly"

In our first episode looking at Sylvester Stallone we focus on the documentary film Sly, produced by and released on Netflix in 2023 which catches up with our hero as he's moving house from LA back to his home town of New York and he's reflecting on his career and the body of work he's created over 50+ years on the silver screen. We'll look at his childhood and relationship with his father, his most iconic roles and his subsequent career which defines genres, creates the ultimate underdog and an almost 50 year franchise.

This is episode 1 of a 4 part miniseries in which we'll take a deeper dive into the Rocky-verse, look at the impact of Rambo on 80s Action Movies and look into what happens to a career when the star begins to fade.

Next Episode

"All I wanna do is go the distance" - Almost 50 Years of Rocky

In which our heroes talk s*** about Sylvester Stallone's most iconic character - Rocky

In this episode we dive into a movie franchise that has so far spawned 9 movies over almost 50 years and with more spin offs in the works, shows no sign of stopping. This week we get into the Rocky-verse!

So while Rocky famously loses the fight but wins the girl in the first film, he gets another shot at the title in Rocky 2, loses and reclaims the belt in 3, avenges the death of Apollo Creed in 4, retires and becomes a trainer in Rocky V, is brought out of retirement to lose an exhibition fight in Rocky Balboa before working with Apollos Son in the Creed series...on top of that theres a Creed 4 in the works, a Drago film, talks around Rocky 7 as well as a Rocky prequel series so it seems even nearly 50 years since the first film Rocky is still a license to print money.

This is episode 2 of 4 in our look at the career and impact of Sylvester Stallone, our first episode focused on the 2023 documentary film "Sly" while the remaining shows will look at 80s Action movies and then his somewhat fading star power
