He actually has 2 Iconic characters in cinema: Rocky and Rambo.. 
few other actors can claim that level of achievement.
We cant do a Stallone appreciation here.. but Rocky is the ultimate underdog triumphs story..and Oscar winner
Rambo is such a classic but I'd say the 4th in the series may be truest John Rambo..a bitter, angry killer with no real purpose any more if its not killing

Nice videos, James, thanks for sharing here in the thread.
And indeed, this is a fact, in addition to all of Stallone's talent, he does most of the stunts, and exposes himself to danger frequently in the scenes, to offer the maximum realism to his audience.
