Ranking Sylvester Stallone Movies [using the CBOOIMDB system]

Here's how my system works (each category was weighted equally [25%]):

C = Critics rating [taken from Rotten Tomatoes]
BO = Box Office [this represents the gross of the film adjusted for inflation; I used the CPI Inflation Calculator]
O = number of Oscar points [1 point for an Oscar nomination; 3 points for an Oscar win]
IMDB = rating on IMDB

01. Rocky [highest rating on Rotten Tomatoes; highest box office gross, adjusted for inflation; most Oscar points; highest IMDB rating]
02. First Blood
03. Cliffhanger
04. Rocky III
05. Rocky II

Not really. It's just a way for people to discuss what they think are some of his best and worst movies. The list is meant to get the discussion going, but people can take it whereever they want to. I probably should have written a little more at the beginning, something like, "How much do you agree with the top 10 listed here?", etc. It's also a way for people to talk about lesser-known movies and the merits/pitfalls of them.
 
I really enjoyed Daylight-I think it should be higher up. But the crummy premise/script probably dragged down an otherwise workman-like performance by Sly.
 
My first date with my wife was Stop Or My Mom Will Shoot what a crap-fest that was.
I've never heard of Get Carter but if that's worse than SOMMWS, I'd be shocked.

Can't say I disagree with rest though.
 
I have a slight cameo in The Specialist, but damn it's a horrible movie. Someone bought it for me once and still it sits, unopened on my shelf.
