  4. The Rocky sequels weren't as successful as the first one (which was directed by John G. Avildsen)

  5. Yes, the director also needs to play the main part (or at least a very major supporting character)
    1
  6. It's more like cameos or bit parts rather than playing a big part in his own movies

  7. You mean "Rocky Balboa". The first movie was directed by John G. Avildsen. The Rocky movies Stallone directed are either quite good or average; not quite as great as the first one

  8. He didn't play a major role there

  9. Jacob Jeffries They said in the intro that the criteria was the principal actor serving double duty

  10. Yeah, Warren Beatty has at least twice directed himself to an Oscar nod

  11. Cameos don't count that much, especially not when Hitchcock's cameos are close to being an extra in his own movies
    1
  12. Not really since they are more like Easter Eggs or treats for the audience. And in many director cameos, they appear as extras

  13. Stallone only directed the sequels
    1
  14. Quentin Tarantino never plays major roles in his movies
    1
  15. the Rocky sequels weren't as great as the first one

  16. Rocky IV earned Stallone a Razzie for both Worst Actor and Worst Director

  17. Dwin​​ I can agree that the Razzies are not always to be taken seriously, but I still don't take box-office success into consideration when judging a movie, especially since the difference between critics and audiences is too big. Critics give a movie negative reviews because they cannot direct it themselves? That's ridiculous! Ever heard about aesthetic judgement? And btw, you should read every IMDB "review" and 80 % of the comments on videos that discuss good/bad movies, and you will quickly learn that I never take them seriously. The audiences don't even know the difference between liking/disliking a movie based on personal preferences and giving aesthetic judgement, and they're awful at argumentation

  18. He at least did much of the editing on "American History X"
