Which comedians? As far as I know comedians mimic his voice because its unique (just like Arnie), but they dont mock his IQ...in fact the story of making the Rocky film is always considered as the prime example of struggling and making it big.

He may be known for all these big dumb tough guys he’s been playing for 40 years, but - and it’s evident in this interview - this man is one of the most supremely intelligent men in Hollywood. I’ve actually watched this clip a couple times cause I’m always astounded by the elegance and the intellect on display.
Taking Rambos dialogue out was a genius decision.

When I listen to this and watch the movie it sounds like he's just full of shit. The Rambo in the movie just doesn't seem like a talker. The guy who edited this movie should have gotten an oscar if the John Rambo character was uttering these idiotic lines Stallone is talking because it doesn't sound like the character would say this dumb shit in the dialogue scenes that do come threw. It makes me think Stallone is over dramatizing how ridiculous the lines were.

I love whenever Stallone talks about Rocky, because you can tell how much of himself and his heart is in that. It was everything. Regardless of how big of a star he became, that same street kid turned boxer was always the same. He always seem an humble and sincere about it.
Stallone is awesome because he's the "Columbo" of Hollywood. He plays it low-key and unassuming, but he's often the smartest person in the room and four steps ahead of those who claim to know better.

I met him many times, my best friends god father, and father was his body guard and in his movies. Tony Munafo was his name and sly were best friends, Tony died last year and his son was an extra in the last blood.
Stallone is awesome! Very smart dude and very humble and down to earth. Rare Hollywood gem.
For his perseverance alone, he deserves every bit of his success - never mind that the dude wrote Rocky, which screenwriting professors could use to teach screenwriting classes. Great great film.
Mind blown that the first Rocky movie was shot in 28 days.
First Blood is still about my favorite movie, that music, the scenery, the intensity, awesome, still watch it every time it comes on. And Stallone, cut as hell in all of them, what discipline, legend.
This guy’s story is THE EPITOME of persistence and believing in yourself!!! I hope he writes a biography someday!!!!!
Stallone can tell the rocky story a million times it never gets old. Hes a great story teller.

There was two major action actors back in the 80s and 90s, Sly and Arnold. For me, two great actors but I draw a distinction between the two. Arnold plays and acts with his head and Sly always with the heart. But two amazing people and gave me many wonderful moments in Cinemas. Thank you Sylvester Stallone.

Man, Sly is a phenomenal interview. Just hanging on his every word.
What a great fucking guy. I would pay to see the original Rambo "uncut". I bet it's hysterical.
One of the nicest people you'll ever meet. He deserves every nice happening to him.
Sly inspired Matt Damon and Ben Affleck when they were trying to get Good Will Hunting made. They got the exact same feedback from studios that he did for his script in that 'we love the script, let us pay you and cast some well known stars' and Matt Damon said their response to this was to use the principle that Stallone started to let studios know that they didn't know what they were talking about and they would do a better job than anyone they could get even though they were nobodies at the time. It's a shining light to any young writers/actors out there when they feel pressured by money men
Legend
Stallone is so humble, so I'll say it, Stallone you're a MULTI TALENTED BLESSED GENIUS.
Sylvester's first movie is like a Bands first album you have your whole life to write it and plan for it it can be done in a short amount of time because the pre production was done years before

I think that, because of the type of movies he's always in, not a lot of people are hip to the fact that Sylvester Stallone is scary smart.
So much respect for this actor and artist. An inspiration to many, many people.
You know what, the fact that he passed on that 360k, that might be the most impressive thing he's ever done.
Sylvester Stallone is my idol! He is actually an incredibly brilliant man who has strove forward in Hollywood for many years to become as successful and renowned as he is now! ~Dutch
Sly's intelligence is extremely underappreciated. I've seen comedians make fun of him but it always feels like they're missing something in their impression of him. It's his intelligence. I dont believe in Role models but this guy is someone I think fits... no... is the mold of something like that. I envy him.
Howard has a good way of making it seem like this is the person's first interview about a particular subject.

Phenomenal Interview. Stallone would make an amazing teacher of the art. As a Story Teller, Screen Writer and Actor he has amassed a deep well of wisdom in film. He truly has paid his dues. Thank you for the memories of your Grit!
I love hearing about the uphill battle he had in making what is in my opinion the greatest film franchise of all time!
Even though I was born in 1998, some of my favorite films to watch was the Rocky and Rambo films. My father only kind of liked the first film of each, but I fell in love with each one - with the exception of the most recent Rocky and Rambo film(sixth Rocky film and the fifth Rambo).
He is an underrated screenwriter. He basically wrote the Rocky, Rambo and The Expendables sagas.

Watch Jim...Rambo gonna finish that that fat fuck sheriff started." LOL.... even almost 40 years later I can still remember me saying that. It was a great movie.

28 days! it took me three months to shoot 17 minutes. Makes the Rocky story even more amazing
howard is the best for getting info out of guests that no one else can get out of people.....amazing....great....
i like these interviews - where they talk about the stuff or stories behind the scenes or what we didn't know - great job
Love sly. Such an amazing life story. Did so much for all of us with the rocky series. Changed lives, taught a lesson to never give up. And even though he has quite a few dumpster fire movies and cheesy roles, he CAN ACT! If you don’t believe it watch Cop Land.
Sly's breakdown at the end of Rambo was so fucking moving
Howard is a true Master. They way he directs the conversation and knows when to cut them off .
I just love Sly, what a amazing human being. So humble and down to earth
Stallone is an awesome guy....I've read his books, Sly magazine, and Rocky is one of my favorite movies. The poignant parts of these movies hold up over time. Now he makes family vids and damn if those aren't fun to watch too. This is a good match. Stern does interviews really well and he's genuinely interested in his guests and always asks great questions. I'd prefer just Howard but I understand loyalty.... thanks for the video.
Curious I thought I'd known Sylvester all my life nearly, and then 2019 comes and I feel I see him clearer than ever, even with my failing eyesight.
EXCELLENT Interview.... Finally in SLY'S own visual words . The story and the whole beginning 👍😎
Brilliant bit of advice at the end there when he mentions changing the dialogue in Rambo so the other characters build up the mythos, not John Rambo himself just going around telling you how badass he is.
Howard Stern is my favorite interviewer & this segment is an example of why I like his style.
i cant even imagine rocky without stallone as the main role.

First Blood is a film very close to my heart having seen it many times s a kid..and to this day still think it is the best thing Sylvester did outside of the Rocky films and maybe F.I.S.T and Nighthawks.
One of the greatest stories of all time. I was born in 1980 that series is apart of my childhood.
Not a fan of the sequels but the First Blood is work of art. Heard similar story about A New Hope. Apparently good editor is worth his/her weight in gold.
Hands down, Howard is the best interviewer. He is a master because he is just himself
Great interview, much respect Mr. Stallone
"Take that you mouse munching mother f*^&%" could have been the best one liner of all time hahaha
Oldy but a goldy! Keep on rocking
That’s very true about First Blood, the script had been knocked around Hollywood for 10 years and at one point had Steve McQueen starring, then Al Pacino

Hilarious.
