I mean the nunchucks matching Bruce's yellow track suit, licking his nunchuks before engaging & plus he was facing an opponent who was also skilled with the weapon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way of the Dragon for me, its the lonest and features a lot of different moves/techniques. The chain stick scene in Enter the Dragon is very brief, compared to the nunchaku scenes in Bruce Lee's other movies. 18 hours ago, shukocarl1441996347 said: Yeah that's a good one, also Kung Fu's Hero and Tough Guy are one's where he twirls them. The nunchaku scenes from films I also rate very highly. Nick Cheung-Lik took the weapon to another level after Bruce Lee's death. You can see why Asian filmmakers made so much use of his weapons skills. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DragonClaws Posted January 6, 2022 Author Member Share Posted January 6, 2022 Quote Enter the Dragon was re-released in the UK in 1979, but not before being subject to further edits. Public concern at the spread of the use of chainsticks (or nunchaku) among London youths prompted a request by the BBFC to the distributor to remove all sight of the weapons from the film, its trailer and promotional posters. The chainsticks cuts were replicated when Enter the Dragon was classified for video in 1988, although some of the previous theatrical cuts to the violence were restored. source- https://www.westminster.ac.uk/research/groups-and-centres/centre-for-law-society-and-popular-culture/projects/classified/the-exhibits/enter-the-dragon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member DragonClaws Posted January 17, 2022 Author Member Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) @KUNG FU BOB, Have you seen the nunchaku scene in this Martial Arts Bollywood inspired crossover film?. It's not a straight up Martial Arts film, but it does feature a nunchaku fight scene on board a moving train. Around the hour mark, its a comedic scene that combines a lot of moves from the Bruce Lees nunchaku scenes. Mostly riffing on Way of the Dragon, such as the scene where Jon Benn's Mafia boss gets his wrist snagged with the nunchaku. Then there nice nod to the Game of Death double nunchaku duel right the end of the fight. They've even re-used the nunchaku chain-link sounds effects, from Way of The Dragon. Most of the Karate inspired action, takes part in the final scenes.

Member PandaPawPaw Posted January 18, 2022 Member Share Posted January 18, 2022 See that's what Bruce's version was missing, a bit of song and dance. Bruce and Dan busting some dance moves during their fight would of made it way better. Mithun Chakraborty was a huge star back then. Not sure about now though. I grew up watching his movies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DragonClaws Posted March 18, 2022 Author Member Share Posted March 18, 2022 No Nunchucks - How the quirks of a conservative British censor led one of the most popular cartoons in history to appear in censored form during the height of its success. (Ernie Smith) Link- https://tedium.co/2019/08/20/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-nunchucks-censorship/ Quote Enter the Dragon unwittingly primed the British film industry for a period of aggressive censorship The story of the censorship of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, if you really break it down, starts in 1973, when a film jointly produced in the U.S. and Hong Kong turned martial arts films into a mainstream Western phenomenon. That movie, Enter the Dragon, introduced many American audiences to Bruce Lee, who translated his early appearances on the American show The Green Hornet, one of the first showcases for martial arts in mainstream Western media, into major success abroad. Lee’s films targeting the Asian market had generated so much buzz that the American film industry effectively came to him, putting massive money behind Enter the Dragon’s marketing campaign. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member PandaPawPaw Posted March 19, 2022 Member Share Posted March 19, 2022 TMNT 1990 is so good! Yeah the film is a bit dated but the costumes and gritty style is excellent! I hope the Directors cut or deleted scenes get released some day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was one of my favourite childhood films too, I didnt know the film had been butchered in the U.K at the time. Missed the 1990 movie in cinemas, but my parents rented it for me as a kid. Recall watching it for the first time with a few friends, we all hyped for it. Used to have big movie poster, with the shot of all four turtles peeping out of the sewer hole. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know much about Cheung Lik, but he is a FANTASTIC martial artist! Anyone know his training background? I was so pumped watching Bruce's Deadly Fingers for some reason. It had the good dub crew, so that helped a bit, but....Lo Lieh, Chan Wei man, Bolo and this bad ass dude i've never seen? Just fantastic and I love seeing Hong Kong the way it was. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
