there's a moment where the movie shows kids playing at the Rocky Statue and it struck me that i haven't seen a movie that features fictional people idolizing a fictional character who has a real statue in that location that's a real life thing you can visit
also, this movie did not have enough Philly they said they were moving to L.A. 20 minutes in, and i got sad

I'm almost inclined to say the same too. Although many critics seem to be taking the fact that it hews more closely to Rocky than Coogler's film did as a negative, I really really liked that (especially after marathoning I, IV and Balboa beforehand).
Was an awesome experience with a crowd too. Sure it's a bit less finely crafted than Coogler's and on the nose and everything but it still takes you along the emotional ride effectively. Loved the score too
