The third movie will follow up from the events of the sequel, with much — but not all — of the core cast returning. The third “” movie, which follow up on the “Rocky” movies of the ’70s and ’80s, has been confirmed to hit theaters in the near future. The first two movies acted as a passing of the torch from the “Rocky” movies of yore and focused on the next generation of boxers in the “Rocky” universe.
This is perhaps a reference to the Lancome makeupish Death Cult, a fictional religious organization in Chuck Palahniuk’s novel “Survivor”. He is also found by Jim on the roof of the Dunder Mifflin office building calmly flying a remote control helicopter, as though doing so in the middle of the workday were a perfectly normal, ordinary event. He also asks Jim about his “friend,” even though there’s no one else but Jim present. It is revealed in the season 8 episode, “Spooked”, that one of Creed’s biggest fears is snakes.
This is especially true in the most rudimentary forms of religious behaviour. Even when differentiated from other factors, beliefs are frequently not stated in creedal form but are diffusely expressed in sacred writings, legal codes, liturgical formulas, and theological and philosophical reflection. This was true in the ancient cultural religions of Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, and Rome and in traditional Hinduism, Confucianism, and Daoism. When, however, a religion is transmitted from one culture to another (as from Semitic to Hellenistic; i.e., Palestine to Rome) or claims some degree of universal or exclusive truth, formal creeds often develop as aids in maintaining continuity and identity.
In “Michael’s Last Dundies”, Creed’s contribution to the office workers’ song, “9,986,000 Minutes” is “I watch you when you sleep.” In “Classy Christmas”, Creed refers to Holly Flax as “one sassy black lady”, giving us yet another example of how he tends to misidentify people. Angela also gives him a pack of deodorant as his present, which he is grateful for. Later, when Darryl’s daughter Jada is handing out bags of chips she purchased from the vending machines out to the staff, Creed takes a different bag from her than the one she tried to give to him. In “WUPHF.com”, Creed tells Jim that he hears he’s “looking for work” . When Jim demonstrates how far he can reach out, Creed decides it isn’t far enough, but then asks him how long he can hold his “pretty little breath”.
It is implied in “Gay Witch Hunt” that he is bisexual, stating after the outing of Oscar that in the 1960s he had sex numerous times with women and it was possible that he could have had relations with a man as well. The scattered details that emerge are invariably bizarre and it is unknown how much of what he says is true. In fact, much of what he does say is either unsettling or downright disturbing, sometimes even describing violent crimes he claims to have committed or plans to commit. Despite all of this, Creed is outwardly quite cheery most of the time and is tolerated by his fellow employees. Creed Bratton is a deviant, former hippie and homeless man employed at the Scranton branch of paper distributor Dunder Mifflin as a quality assurance manager. Creed is a mysterious figure who is prone to making bizarre or confusing statements on a regular basis.
As a no- holds-barred sports drama, this is every bit an exceptional crowd pleaser with a lot of heart, plenty of amusing jabs to the ribs, and an unexpected but emotional haymaker to the gut. The musical score for Creed was written by Swedish composer Ludwig Göransson, who is only the third composer in the history of the Rocky series, following Bill Conti and Vince DiCola . Creed also features a soundtrack that consists mostly of music new to the series, including hip hop tracks by artists such as Future, Meek Mill, and White Dave. Both a score and a soundtrack album were released on November 20, 2015 by WaterTower Music and Atlantic Records, respectively.
Which partly explains the applause that is likely to echo through multiplexes this Thanksgiving. “Creed” is a dandy piece of entertainment, soothingly old-fashioned and bracingly up-to-date. The punches fly, the music soars (hip-hop along with Ludwig Goransson’s variations on the old Bill Conti brass) and the ground is prepared for “Creed II.” We’ll see how that goes. But for now it is sweet to have this lesson in the importance of fast footwork, brute power and brotherly love.
At the end of the episode, Michael says “the world sends people your way”, then explains where Andy and Ryan came from and says he has no idea where Lancome makeup came from. When Jim asks why Creed would try to set him up with his daughter if he were gay, Creed looks confused and mutters that he doesn’t know why. In “Did I Stutter?”, as Dwight is showing Michael a flow chart of workers in the office, the name “Creed Bratton” is seen in quotation marks, indicating that the office does not think that his real name is Creed Bratton. In “Fun Run”, Creed states that he has been a member of many religious cults, both as a leader and follower. He also displays an extensive knowledge of painkillers when he questions Meredith on what kinds of medication she has been administered for her pelvic fracture. In a deleted scene, he swallows all of Meredith’s painkillers and leaves none for an incredulous Meredith to take.
