    We all feel sadden by the fact the Bruce Lee died at just the age of 32, but in truth this man has and will continue to outlive us mere mortals, rarely a year goes by when I was growing up was there not a movie, a documentary, a remake or a TV soapie of some sort featuring Bruce Lee, then with the advent of the internet came all the Bruce Lee memes, then the IP Man movies......Bruce lee is immortal

    In my 60’s today, growing up in Torrance CA, Bruce Lee was a big influence in my life. I even joined the FKA in 1975, Jerry Poteet, Richard Bustillo rotated as instructors for the kids class and of course Dan Inosanto. So yes, Bruce Lee was influential in my life. Missed but not forgotten. RIP

    Thanks for making this video. As a Kung Fu instructor I was massively inspired by Bruce Lee. I've been to Hong Kong several times and it has become one of my favorite cities. I wish this video existed when I was going there about 8 and 10 years ago, I would have been able to visit some of these iconic locations. At the time I thought filming was mostly done at the studios so I never even made the effort to see if they did exist. At least I took a picture infant of the Bruce Lee statue on the Hong Kong Walk of Fame. Cheers!

    Thanks for a very interesting video. I really like the overlay of the photos. The reason for the changes of the titles for Bruce's first two films was for the distribution of The Big Boss in America, due to the drug smuggling, "The Chinese Connection" title could cash in on the French Connection. But both films arrived together and the canisters got accidently swapped.

    When I was younger I saw the original cut of Fist of Fury. There was a guy who jumped out of a black van he started talking to Bruce Lee however it was not part of the script the two guys fought and he tried to drown Bruce Lee and muddy water Bruce Lee pretended like he was dead and he jumped up smashing the guy in the chest doing that yelled at he always do. Where is that footage because Bruce Lee smash the camera he was very upset about that this happening during filming.

    • @onthetracksof007
      @onthetracksof007  Před rokem

      I think maybe the number of rooms did not change that much, it's mostly the house facade, which used to be all glass, which was replaced by concrete wall for maximum privacy. And his lovely zen garden that became onsite parking lot.

    In Enter The Dragon, down at the beach where Bruce Lee arrives from the boat. There is a small house there, every location video have this small jouse or cabin. I cant remember it from the film, do you know why everybody film that house?

    What is the net worth of Bruce Lee today ?
    I've found here and there that was 10 millions $ at his death around 80 millions $ in 2024
    Which is still ridiculous.

  • @Veteran007
    @Veteran007 Před 2 lety

    There is no Way of the Dragon in U.S. It's called Return of the Dragon, mainly because it was released after Enter the Dragon even though it was made before that film. What determines the actual name of a movie is what the marketing department decides upon. That's where the money and promotional efforts are spent. It's not what some Bruce Lee purist says the movie should be called. Go back in time and look at all the posters, magazines and newspapers clips from the 70s and you'll have your answer. Stop rewriting history.
