Sylvester was expected to walk away with the Best Supporting Actor Oscar, having triumphed earlier in the year at the Golden Globes and the Critic Choice Awards. However, we were all shocked when Bridge of Spies actor Mark Rylance scooped the award instead!
“What the f**k!” Michael bellows at his TV after hearing Sly was robbed of his award! “Co**sucker” he screams as the obscenities just pour out of his mouth like dirty water out of a sewer! You “mother-f***er” he continues before asking, “who the f*** is this?”
His reaction was probably befitting to every Rocky fan, or should we say Creed fan, who has been mesmerized by Sly over the years. He was awesome in the latest movie of the boxing series, but fair’s fair! Mark was very convincing too as a Russian spy.
It’s shame that Sylvester didn’t win because he was expected to pay tribute to his late friend Tony Burton, who appeared in six Rocky movies, in his victory speech. Next time!
