Mick ... and Adrian ... and Paulie ... and Apollo might ALL be rolling in their graves after this -- 'cause here are a bunch of the Philadelphia 76ers doing "Rocky" quotes -- and it's so bad, it's good.

Jahlil Okafor, Joel Embiid, Nik Stauskas and more all take a swing and delivering some of the most famous quotes from the franchise ... despite the fact they have terrible Philly accents.

Our favorite part ... Dario Saric singing "Eye of the Tiger."

The team is honoring the 40th anniversary of the original "Rocky" -- and will include the theme at Wednesday's game against the Wizards.

Kat Von D is the new owner of the home made famous by Steve Martin in "Cheaper by the Dozen," but the place was anything but cheap.

The home's located in L.A.'s Hancock Park neighborhood which has been home to Melanie Griffith, Shonda Rhimes and Lana Del Rey ... and which also helps to explain the $6.5 million price tag.

HUGE is an understatement for the 12,500 sq ft, 3-story Victorian. With 11 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms ... it's a TON more room than single Kat needs, but maybe she's planning to adopt 12 kids.

"8 Mile" director Curtis Hanson had a solid will in place before his September death that not only took care of his longtime companion and son, but also his extended fam and his movie biz.

Curtis and partner Rebecca Yeldham never tied the knot but have a 12-year-old son together, and the Oscar winner left most of his estate to them, including a home in Laguna Beach. He set up a trust for Rebecca, the kid and several other family members.

It's not clear how much is in it, but the docs say he had nearly $5 million outside the trust.

Rebecca's asking to be named executor of the will, except for anything related to his production companies. Curtis specified his producing partner Carol Fenelon should handle those decisions.

Prince Harry's new girlfriend, Meghan Markle, actually hit the big screen before she scored on TV, and we found the footage -- her first big role in Hollywood.

Meghan, who's famous for "Suits," starred in a movie called "Deceit" directed by Matthew Cole Weiss way back in 2006.

Marilyn Monroe's blonde wig from her last film, "The Misfits," is about to hit the auction block.

It's the first time in almost 2 decades the mop's been up for grabs. Bidding starts at $10k ... a lot less than the $29.9k it sold for last time around. Heritage Auctions, which is running the show, is counting on $20k minimum.

A lock of Lennon's hair sold for $35k earlier this year ... almost certainly more than MM's fake hair will fetch.

Marilyn's wig has some extras, like 5 ringlets for volume. You also get the original storage box labeled: "United Artists Corporation / The Misfits / Mapes Hotel / Reno, Nevada" and "Hold At Airport For Pick Up" ... so, cool piece of movie history.

Bidding starts Nov. 12.

Val Kilmer is struggling to speak with a severely swollen tongue -- and while he still denies he has cancer -- whatever his ailment is ... it's forcing him to put his work on hold.

Kilmer shocked an audience in L.A. Thursday night that showed up for a screening of "Citizen Twain." The actor was drooling as he explained his tongue had recently swollen up and he was still recovering.

He did not say what caused the swelling, but a couple weeks ago his former co-star Michael Douglas claimed Val was battling oral cancer. He denied the cancer, but did say he had a lump on his throat.

Brad Pitt looked both relieved -- and maybe a little worse for wear -- as he resurfaced after being cleared in a child abuse investigation.

Brad seemed happy Wednesday at a fan event for his new flick, "Allied," in Westwood, CA.

Brad Pitt resurfaced for the first time since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce ... and it sure looks like the strife has taken its toll.

A scruffy Pitt and Julia Roberts showed face in L.A. Tuesday night, at a private screening of "Moonlight." Brad's production company, Plan B, backed the project.

Julia's not attached to the flick so looks like she was there just to support Brad.

Casper Van Dien isn't very good at keeping secrets, or ... he's playing a really cruel joke on "Starship Troopers" fans who are going crazy about the recently-announced reboot.

We asked the original Johnny Rico at LAX what he thought about his 1997 cult classic being reprieved ... and his answer could trigger an epic nerd freak-out.

Before Demi Lovato took down Rocky Balboa in a sparring match, she got lessons on how to take down Rocky ... from Rocky.

Sylvester Stallone shared a clip of them practicing a jab sequence -- exactly like Sly does when he's shooting a movie. He gave Demi a handful of cues and choreography for their boxing skit.

Maybe our suggestion Demi could be a good fit for the "Creed" sequel wasn't that far off. Chick's fight game is focused, for sure.

Demi Lovato's got hands of stone ... just ask Sylvester Stallone.

Demi and Sly strapped on the gloves Wednesday at Jay Glazer's Unbreakable gym on the Sunset Strip -- and she obviously has some ring experience ... of the Hollywood variety, at least.

Rocky was having fun, although he claims he slipped when he hit the mat. Decide for yourself.

BTW, the "Creed" sequel is slated for November, 2017. Get DL a script, stat!

Just sayin' ...

Charlie Sheen's got your lock for Wednesday's epic Game 7 of the World Series in Cleveland ... and he's hoping reviving Mr. 'Wild Thing' himself is enough juju to tip the scales.

We got video of Ricky Vaughn on his private jet en route to C-Town for tonight's Cubs-Indians showdown ... where he'll almost be front and center at Progressive Field. Check out the vid ... he makes a BOLD prediction.

TMZ broke the story ... Sheen scored some sweet tickets for the game thanks to 2 local business owners.

'Birth of a Nation' star Armie Hammer smells a rat -- a racist one -- when it comes to the treatment one moviegoer claims he got when he tried to buy a ticket for the flick.

Armie told us he saw the Facebook video posted by a guy in Delaware -- he claims the box office at a Regal Cinema told him 'Birth' was sold-out, but then he went inside and found the theater almost completely empty.

As we first reported ... Regal denies any wrongdoing or racism -- but Armie's not totally convinced, and says he would've flipped out way more than this guy did.

Making movies is Ron Howard's thing but waiting in line for 'em -- or remembering much about 'em -- is definitely NOT.

We caught up with the awesome director in NYC, and considering he's made about 100 flicks ... he must remember all the lines to at least one classic movie, right?

ATTENTION, SPORTS GAMBLERS!!!!

Wanna (possibly) win some money this weekend??? Pay attention ...

The guy who's handicapping prowess inspired the movie "Two For The Money" is about to give you free cash (maybe) ... by revealing the biggest LOCKS of the NFL gambling weekend.

TMZ Sports spoke with Brandon Lang ... Matthew McConaughey played him in 'TFTM' ... and asked him -- for you guys of course, not for us -- to reveal the safest bets for this NFL weekend.

PAY CLOSE ATTENTION -- Brandon breaks it down good ... and even though we really don't know what the hell he's talking about ... we're gonna go ahead and go with his picks anyway.
