i just love watching the end hearing the crowd going wild for the plucky yank, all the while thinking "if that was really good old communist russia, every single person in that crowd would be shot and all knowledge of the event would be erased from society. Or maybe even re-written with Stalin dropping Balboa in the second round with a thundering socialist haymaker."

alas, films are never that honest.

The cold war showed us the only thing stopping America from attacking Russia was it's nuclear deterrant. If that was no longer there it would be a very different story. 

I disagree. It was the other way around. America won the cold war and did not attack Russia when the soviet union fell. I doubt the same could've been said about the soviet union had america lost the cold war.

Lets not paint ourselves a false picture here. The Americans have historically been bastards.
