Jeff K.

Boards… don’t hit back.

Hombredave

Now that you’ve watched this, you have just got to see ‘The Kentucky Fried Movie’ (1977).

Life in the cave of Garanoga

Oh this just made my morning lol. Childhood hero right there. My childhood was saturated with Bruce and Saturday afternoon "Kung-Fu Theater.

Data Cable

Enter the Dragon 1 week before Kung Pow... that's some slow-mo whiplash.

Mastervodo

Donkey! Stop that! Wait until you are alone!

Robert Cooper

Bruce Lee was famous in the States largely for this movie. People kind of sought out his stuff after this, but it was never huge because the movies didn't get wide distribution. It's important to understand that until the mid to late 80s how little anybody watched Hong Kong movies outside of a small theater. It wasn't really until independent TV stations and basic cable became common that Hong Kong movies would be on TV all weekend because to US broadcasters they were cheaply licensed content.

PIG

I've always wanted to see this! Will be fun to watch along for the first time.

weyland1000

Simone really looks like the character Tania in the thumbnail . Going to enjoy the reaction now .

megamoo chilli

Classic film. One of my absolute favorites. Own the DVD and I've seen it many times. Take Bruce Lee out of it and its not a very good film. It's all about him. Without him it's a better than average B movie.

Kyle B

The Mortal Kombat movie from the 90s is a beat for beat rippoff of Enter the Dragon. It is a wonder they didn't get sued for plaguerism.

Happy Hanukkah

[Preemptive mollification: I'm a fan of Bruce Lee and have generally enjoyed the following movies.] There's also the matter that his three big (post-1970) HK films are simply not that good apart from Lee's action sequences. Besides low production values, Lee's performance is quite hammy. Given his tragic early death, this posthumously released B-movie is sadly his best movie and the only one I would recommend to a general audience. (Readers are welcome to research Game of Death and its inherent issues.) (ADDED: I belatedly understand that Robert and I are addressing somewhat different matters.)

Happy Hanukkah

I think it's great that you're reacting to this Bolo Yeung vehicle the very day after he celebrated his eightieth birthday! 🍍🥳🎉

Cartoons ReAct

Wolverine first appearance was a year after this movie, but both the claws in this movie and Wolverine's are based on animal claws...so we could say they aren't directly inspired

Cartoons ReAct

it was a homage, same as most of the characters were based on Big Trouble in Little China.

otto

This movie caused countless nunchaku injuries.

Amar

Can you please add “Warrior 2011” to your drama poll please. I’m sure it’s been asked before but if it hasn’t it’s one of the best acted movies I’ve ever seen. One of Tom Hardy’s most down to earth and powerful performances. Thank you

Young Blood Priest

George I’m pretty sure you’re right about Bruce Lee being the first Asian leading man here in the states. Before him Hollywood would only have Asian men has servants. Even when Lee costarred in the Green Hornet his secret identity was the leads man servant/chauffeur. In the 70s he created the show KungFu about a disciple of the shaolin temple wondering through the old west. The studio bought the show but thought the public wouldn’t except an Asian lead so the replaced Lee with David Carradine.

Dwight Scarn

The actors Bolo, And O'Hara the guy with the scar witnessed Bruce Lee beat up an extra who challenged him. He said he bloodied the extra up so bad and got him in arm or leg lock. But also didn't push to get the extra fired. And forgot about it, like it was nothing lol Also apparently Bruce had to slow down his movements for the camera because he was so fast. Also a champion kickboxer Joe Lewis said Bruce Lee was the fastest man he has ever encountered.

Eddy V Ruiz II

now you can watch Kentucky Fried Movie

Andrew

The entire movie was filmed without sound. Everything was added in post production.

Happy Hanukkah

6:14 "There's going to be a little cameo." Well, there already was. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005033/ 6:42 "Is [Bruce Lee] already crazy famous?" In Hong Kong, absolutely. Elsewhere, no. John Saxon (aka Zac Efron Sr :-) ) was better known in the States. He was a busy actor, and you might well have seen him already. 9:11 "That's the conflict?" Word of the day: "Overdetermination." 35:13 "One key thing for martial arts is control." Nonsense. The *key* thing for martial arts is 氣. :-) 46:32 Umm... 47:09 "Flee! Flee for your lives!" For a second I thought you were going for a Cantonese pronunciation joke. "Flee! You are flee!" :-P

Happy Hanukkah

David Carradine wasn't Chinese?!?!?!?!?! :-P By the way, the sequel series "Kung Fu: The Legend Continues" was filmed in Toronto. The grandson of Kwai Chang Caine walks out of the past and ... onto Queen Elizabeth Way. :-)

Young Blood Priest

Do you know if the continuation is streaming? If so on what platform because I want to check it out.

Happy Hanukkah

Sorry, I don't know. (I myself would like to have a reasonably priced boxed set, as opposed to expensive seasons 1 and 2 only.)

maikeru

next please: The Way of the Dragon

Happy Hanukkah

By the way, if you want to feel better about it not being available, check out this excerpt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsinxXHk_KI and particularly Kim Chan (The Ancient) between 0:43 and 0:52. 😂 No, the show was never great, but I don't remember it as usually being that bad.

Happy Hanukkah

A possible follow-up: "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" from 1993. Enjoyable, and no less accurate than most biopics.

Robert Cooper

Yeah. It was just a different relationship with foreign films at the time. For example, by the time Chow Yun Fat made western movies in the 90s, everyone already knew who he was, because Hong Kong movies were everywhere. In the 70s for Bruce Lee, it wasn't like that at all. He had been on TV here, but he wasn't seen as a big star.

Matthew Maxon

Not only did Blood Sport take from this. So did Mortal Kombat.

Matthew Maxon

The cops kept calling Williams a name. That name is so racist.

REDR58

I think we could say that movie is not particularly accurate as regards to Lee’s life in at least one, very important way, but it’s still very much worth a watch.

REDR58

Carradine was half fake Chinese!

REDR58

1 hour 42 minutes makes this Special Edition. The Theatrical. Version is a bit shorter.

Metalhead Reacts

To answer Simone's question Enter the Dragon came out August 1973. Wolverine made his first comic book appearance in October 1974. a year and two months AFTER the film. Also, yes. This film was at the height of his fame. Unfortunately he passed away before the film was released.

Brandon

For anyone else watching from their Criterion box set... this version of the movie is on disk 7. Don't make the same mistake as me and have to start the movie over again. 😆

John

I hope you will consider watching Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon, now that you have seen this movie

James W.

I saw this on our local VHF channel when I was like 8 and after that he was on the top of my pantheon of badasses. When I found he had died like 3 years before I was born, I was inconsolable. My first foray into wall-of-crazy conspiracy theory at 8y/o was trying to figure out who had put a hit on Bruce Lee. Was it J. Edgar Hoover? Was it some secret cabal of kung-fu masters who were jealous of his fame? Was it time-traveling notzees? Perhaps, Megatron? ...We'll never know for sure you guys...we'll never know... Anyways... My bit of family lore was that my Uncle was going to Berkley and running streets in that area when Bruce was staying around there, and would see Bruce Lee around town before he became a gigantic star. He wasn't homies with him but all we needed as kids when we were kids was proximity. As far as any kid I knew was concerned, my uncle learned Jeet Kune Do from Bruce Lee himself. Bruce really liked my mom's potato salad. He taught me how to be like water. (Edit: After seeing Williams pick which trafficked girls he was gonna basically SA, it reminds me how Epsteiny Han's whole vibe was. Epstein with a dash of Dana White. So many films had this stuff, as a kid it didn't even register, it just made Jim look virile, as a grown up with more context, that shit gross)

Adam Vialpando

Bruce Lee was so legendary that I was shocked when I found out he only starred in 4 movies. That makes him very similar to John Cazale.

Terdell Ferguson

Great reaction as usual, G&S. Best line HAS TO BE: Simone's "A bitey type of snake." Bruce Lee was the greatest. Growing up as a Gen X kid he was THE Martial Artist. His legacy lives on.

PG Modehouse

I might be in the minority when I say that Bruce Lee's Hong Kong films are far superior. Big Boss, and Way of the Dragon. That said for many in the west, this was their first Bruce Lee film.

REDR58

Except for I think 2 of the women, each of the principal actors in this movie are or were martial artists. The late Jim Kelly (Williams) is the tall man with the afro and he was quite an action star in his own right and ran his own karate studio. He was also a tennis player. The musical composer, Lalo Schifrin, worked with Clint Eastwood many times The Zac Efron lookalike was the late John Saxon (Roper) who studied judo and karate but this was his last martial-arts movie. http://bruceleelives.co.uk/saxon.html He was the main police officer and father of Nancy in “A Nightmare on Elm Street" and he had a cameo in "From Dusk till Dawn." Lee’s sister Su Lin is played by Angela Mao Ying (aka Mao Fuching). She studied opera, ballet and trained in Hapkido and other martial arts: https://www.scmp.com/lifestyle/entertainment/article/3094502/angela-mao-lady-kung-fu-outsold-bruce-lees-enter-dragon-us Tania, the woman with the blue top who dies at the end is played by the late Ahna Capri. Capri died at age 66 from injuries suffered in a car accident. It does not seem she studied any martial arts. Jackie Chan was about 19 years old during the filming of this movie. Bruce Lee was about 31 here. The late Shih Kien who plays Han was about 58 years old in this movie. Betty Chung plays Mei Ling. She is a singer and actor. Bolo Yeung (Yeung Sze) who plays Bolo has such a great, distinctive face. He's a very imposing figure! The late Bob Wall played O’Hara (Oharra) and he studied karate, Judo, Shorin-Ryu and Jiu-Jitsu. I think that was supposed to be Han’s own skeletal hand on display in his museum? You can see the guillotine’s blade is held up by nails or some other pieces of metal jammed underneath the ends of the blade. Roper was never a bad guy in this movie. He was just at the tournament to make some money. The (US?) sailors carrying rifles are seen boarding those yellow helicopters that were apparently owned by Hong Kong Air International Ltd. Curiously, they are not marked up as any kind of military aircraft, despite the presence of what appear to be US Naval ships in the background of that scene, including what I think is the USS William C. Lawe (DD-763), a Gearing-class destroyer. Here are some great behind-the-scenes photos from the movie: https://theasc.com/articles/ac-gallery-enter-the-dragon You guys now need to go back and watch Lee’s first big starring role in “The Big Boss” (1971). Edit: fixed multiple typos and such.

REDR58

That is such a fantastic set and a great way to get a bunch of his movies for a really good price on disc.

Will Sofer

The first Asian leading man in the United States was Sessue Hayakawa. A heartthrob during the silent film era, and one of the first sex symbols of film.

Collinson

I would say Bruce Lee was famous in the Martial Arts community by this point. As you say not crazy famous but if he walked into any Dojo in the US everyone would know him. He was putting on exhibitions and doing interviews in that community quite a bit.

Collinson

"Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story." Is a decent biography of Bruce Lee not perfect but does a decent job covering his life.

Adam Vialpando

I guess I should amend my statement by saying he only started in 4 Hong Kong martial arts films. Considering how many movies many other legendary HK stars have done, it's actually crazy.

TexasNight

This is what i came to the comments for.. the "Fistful of Yen" short was comedy brilliance!

David N

If I had my way they would react to nothing but old cartoons, nature documentaries and kung fu movies.

REDR58

Jason Scott Lee is really wonderful as Bruce Lee (no relation). He’s so charismatic in the role. It’s a shame he didn’t turn out to be a bigger star.

REDR58

Oh you're right about that. Cazale was in 5 theatrically-released movies, but I think everyone (I sure did!) forgets he was in "The Conversation" (1974) which was released earlier in the same year as "The Godfather Part II" and gets overshadowed by that bigger movie.

Jayson Phillips

It's funny that Mortal Kombat movie copied some of this movie for their movie

Jayson Phillips

DRAGON: Bruce Lee story is so good!!!! hope you guys watch it.

REDR58

No "The Righteous Gemstones"??? What's happening???

Skyruff Creative

You have seen (the Zac Efron lookalike) John Saxon (Roper) but mostly in older roles such as the father/police officer in first "Nightmare on Elm Street".

JoeNotCharles

Yeah, I always thought that this movie's not that great. So much of it is introducing characters, so little of it is those characters actually doing anything. And the bad guy was well acted outside of fight scenes, but not threatening at all physically.

Michael Kemmet

I'm only halfway through, but I'm very disappointed with Simone. Not a single "I am Bolo, from Aeor" reference from her. IYKYK :D

JoeNotCharles

+1 to watching Mortal Kombat now. It's cheesy but surprisingly good for a video game movie full of 90's CGI.

Peter Dillard

Now you're ready for 'Return of the Dragon'

Happy Hanukkah

Trivia: In 1986, Bolo Yeung had a small role opposite Brandon Lee (son of...) in Legacy of Rage.

Simon Pegged Me

George, I'm pulling the guillotine release rope all day every day. I mean, it's a guillotine. When's the next time you're going to have an opportunity to see one in action? To be clear, I would not use it on a cat or any other living thing, but an empty guillotine? Hands on noses, kids, it's time we brought history to life.

Ashkaun

Another Bruce Lee movie you should watch is “The Way of the Dragon”. He fights Chuck Norris and I personally think it is a more exciting film.

Corabal

I'm assuming George knew that was Sammo Hung at the start of the film as well?

Kyle B

I feel like Jim Kelly in this had to have been a major influence on the character of Black Dynamite.

Dwight Scarn

I like George but was surprised he seems to have nothing to say about this movie afterwards. I would have talked about what an impact bruce lee had on me when I saw this flick when I was 5

Dwight Scarn

So much fiction in that movie but was overall entertaining and got the spirit of bruce lee

Dwight Scarn

I loved all those movies growing up and enter the dragon was my favorite. But gradually over time I believe Chinese Connection was his best. But sucha great way to introduce Bruce to the American audience in Enter the Dragon.

Dwight Scarn

He has a James Dean like career. Brief but so culturally impactful. Bruce lee was a fan of James Dean I believe l.

Dwight Scarn

That was a hilariously bizarre movie. One of my fave Robin Williams roles he was nuts lol

Dwight Scarn

I read alot about Bruce lee and they really made it incredibly fictional lolol but very entertaining.

GAB

Wolverine in comics dates from 1974 (The Incredible Hulk #180). Enter the Dragon was released in 1973.

Happy Hanukkah

Stop me if you've heard this one. A Chinese man, a White man, and a Black man enter a martial arts tournament...

Young Blood Priest

100%. Michael Jai White said he was a huge Jim Kelly fan. I don’t know if anyone here is familiar with The Boondocks but Kelly was the influence for Grand Master Bushido Brown. DOOOYYYY!!!

Matthew Maxon

you hear "Ping Pong" and think "Kung Fu" because that's what they are saying.

sheriffjt

Great! Now you can watch Kentucky Fried Movie!

sheriffjt

OK, just read the comments and everyone has said this already, hopefully that bodes well! Also, still watching but I guess the cameo they were talking about wasn't Jackie Chan, as it went by without mention...

Simon Pegged Me

Wait...Is that...? Do I spy with my little eye a tactical turtleneck on Bruce Lee when he's out at night reconning the island? I believe I do. Archer would be proud, or asking his mother to make Bruce wear something else. I'm torn on this one.

Elvenwitch

Am I the only one who reflexively yells Mortal Kombat when the gong rings during the party?

keoma songs

If they do, they will have our gratitude! In the spirit of our ancestors.

keoma songs

It will be a reaction of extra-ordinary mag-ni-tude!

Joits

Even as a kid, I always hated that they had John Saxon fighting Bolo. We were robbed of a Bruce Lee vs Bolo fight.

sheriffjt

Honestly, I can't watch Enter the Dragon now with out hearing those quotes.

KC

I would suggest Ball's of Fury if you guys are in the mood for a fun movie.
