Stallone Quotes

(From an interview expressing concern over making Conan the Destroyer (1984) less brutal than its predecessor, Conan the Barbarian (1982)) I think it`s a mistake. I know Sylvester Stallone made an extra $20 million because he got a PG rating for Rocky III (1982), but it`s a matter of how much you want to stay within the character`s reality. Can you slaughter people and never see blood? Is it possible? You must have battles. That`s part of life, war, and the world of Conan.

I`m not a beautiful person and I never have been. My ex Sylvester Stallone was obsessed with my looks. He got my profile carved into the place settings of our crystal dining table. And he commissioned a bronze statue of the two of us in our underwear for his garden. It was so embarrassing. But I never understood his fascination.

When I read Copland, I really wanted Stallone`s part.

I sold The Brown Bunny camera package because I had organized it so methodically, so precisely, that I couldn`t let anyone touch it, scratch it, or break it up. I just had to get it out of my life. The package was sold to Sage Stallone who`s one of my favorite people in this whole world, one of the smartest, young, goofy kids I`ve ever known in my whole life. So it went to like my hero.

Sylvester Stallone is very funny and he`s a great guy to hang out with.

He may very well have wanted the dirt to use against Stallone. Maybe Stallone crossed him. I don`t know. But I never asked questions.
