I visited the Kung Fu Monthly offices in 1978. I was a teenager in my Wrangler jacket covered in home made Bruce Lee badges! They were very nice to me. It seems they still have a generous spirit!
Nice one. Did you keep the denim jacket?
1978 seems like an eternity ago now.
KFM is run by Carl Fox now, and yes, he was very generous for gifting me these gems.
Cheers bud 👍
@@StripeyR I'm afraid not. My collection vanished in the mists of time and circumstances! I couldn't afford to replace it all now so I'll content myself by watching your videos 😊
Rathbone place in London if I'm not mistaken this is also the same street in the opening credits of Minder where Terry and Arthur are holding up the bent lamppost. Great video Stripey ❤
Goodness Street? Originally?
I was there in 79' as a spotty faced teen, dragged my mum and stepdad along too, they weren't as impressed as I was 😅
Goodge Street! Damn autocorrect!
Good old Goodge Street, happy memories as teenager 1973 ish and went into Chinese shops lots of Bruce Lee mags and books in Chinese, and saw my first Kung fu film there in Chinese cinema One Armed Boxer and did walk past Kung Fu monthly office, memories.
I recall a goodies episode where it showed the posters of Fist Of Fury and The Big Boss.
They rephrased it to Fish Of Fury and
The Big Pud.😃
Great days.
How times have changed.
👍👍
Very generous of Carl Fox to send you all those goodies. You guys are very lucky to have the Rise of the Dragon convention. Looking forward to your review.
I have still got every issue of KFM., plus some doubles. I also have the Trade Dummy, and I was in the Bruce Lee Society. I had a drawing published in one of the newsletters 🙂
Great pod cast with the kfm stuff, I still have many original copies from the early 70,s among a few other very rare items that you don’t see, well at least I haven’t in the last 50 years. Keep up your good work. Love it my friend.
Thank you 👍
Excellent gift. Of all the bruce lee items I have lost over the yrs, fortunately not the kung fu monthly I still have them all.
Nice one, mate. I do wish I'd kept mine.
They go for silly money on eBay
Cheers pal 👍
Stripey,
One of your comments box mentions Steptoe and Son.
If you've not seen it, you don't know what your missing.
A real crack up and tongue in cheek dedication to Bruce and Enter.
I was only 4 when Enter was released here and i wish i would have been 18 in 1974 to see that film and witness the atmosphere of the kung fu genre.
Many happy memories of collecting my KFM magazines, but they have that musty old smell now despite them being in protective covers, so i don't read them, as the wife doesn't like the stink in the living room!😮😮
Warmest wishes.
Tony and Kim 👍 👍
I have seen the Steptoe ans Son episode (ages ago now)
I'll track it down and have a re-watch.
Re: your musky KFM mags, sound like you need a man cave, bud 😉
Cheers 👍
@@StripeyR
Absolutely.
👍👍
Great video stripey 👍 I have the same Blu-ray Disc. Nice Bruce Lee kit. Enjoy your weekend my friend.
Thanks, Tony.
I had to get the Shout Factory disc's (they're oop now)
The KFM stuff was very nice from Mr Fox (nice bloke)
Cheers pal 👍
Nice find Stripey, your collection must be up there with the best. My wife's away for a few days, so I've been having an 'Arrow-fest' (and the WB 50th 4K ETD). My eyes are pretty much square now, so I don't know what yours must be like 😂
It's getting there, bud. There are a few Bruce Lee sets out there I'd like to get, but a little out of my price range. The "Spectrum Collection" DVDs looks cool, but £150. The wife would go nutz.
Enjoy the Bruce fest bud 👍
What a great gift. Those Kung-Fu monthlys are legendary in their own right. I'm lucky, I still have a few of them. Like you, Stripey, most of mine were on my wall. Cracking video👍🏻👍🏻
Yes you do need those 2 books mate ! They're worth every penny. Carl is a good guy who is quick to respond. Pleased for you and your goodies. Stay safe.
Hello Stripey
Always the same pleasure 🙏 to watch your videos.
Can't wait for the next one.
Cheers 🍻 mate
Cool video awesome goodies from Carl the mini dummy copy and treasure kit are excellent mate ive got the original versions from back in the day im a massive KFM fan as you can tell lol . cheers Pete
Thanks, bud.
It was very generous of Carl (top fella).
I have seen your KFM collection, mate (very impressive 👏)
Cheers pal 👍
Hi Stripey, great video as always 😊
You lucky chap, all those lovely goodies!
I've been wanting to buy the Archive books for a while as I did have KFM magazines but I stupidly gave them away, why on earth did I do that!!
Have a great weekend ☺️✌️
Thank you.
It was very nice of Carl Fox to send me these goodies.
I too got rid of my KFM mags, years ago. I feel the same...WHY?
You too have a lovely weekend 👍
@@StripeyR Yep I'm absolutely kicking myself 🥴
Carl seems like a nice chap and he's doing his bit for Bruce ☺️✌️
The Shout Factory Blu-Rays are out of print and are a little pricey on Amazon
They are expensive on Amazon. I bought them on Ebay, all reasonable cheap except Game of Death ( but I had to have it)
Cheers pal 👍
Give that literature a sniff for us all, I bet it smells fantastic 😊
😉😁
I had each KFM as they came out but, though a few survived as posters, most were cut up and displayed as photos. I've just looked on eBay for a complete set, but £1100 is out of my league. Thankfully I've still got all my BLS stuff.
I had two letters published in KFM.
One is in KFM No.45.
I know that as it is the only one I have left 😢
Now that is cool! I remember Kung Fu Monthly very fondly, I had our (at the time) local newsagent order them for me each month as they always sold out in his shop. I still have a lot of them boxed up in the attic, so it would be great to get them down from there for a wee bit of nostalgia. Won't make the Rise Of The Dragon event sadly, other commitments with family stuff going on at the same time of it. Cheers Stripey!
Hi stripey
Great collection there mate.
You can never get enough of Bruce Lee
Cheers mate 😊
What a lovely set Stripey, I wish I could go to the event In October. But like I said, It would be too much Pain to go through for two days. I could have bought along all My KFM's and got them signed. I know You are going to have a great time, and get lots of It on film for those of us who could not go. Can't wait to see that. Keep on looking, they are out there.
Thank you Bud. 🙏🏻
Cheers, matey👍
@@StripeyR 🤝
Very generous and a nice touch…. Have a great weekend mate just catching up on your vids
Nice one Stripey! Love Kung Fu monthly and its collectibles. Managed to talk over the phone to the legendary owner Felix Dennis many years ago. Really nice of Carl Fox to send you these. I had a few letters published in some KFM issues. The editors always responded to anyones letters that were published. They were class.
I still have an original Bruce Lee Society sticker from the ‘70s. 😎
Nice 👍
I remember all them original KFM magazines in the newsagents back in the 1970s and had the whole set which ended in 1983 I think. I had 3 issues of the black n white dummy issues but was thrown away when we moved house with all the original FOH sets of bruce lee movies that I got from Cathay films in soho square in london .my folks thought I had outgrown a lot of things when I got to 15 years old.gutted now but that's life I guess.nice stuff you have there mate.
You have some awesome viewers! Nice haul!
Been doing some digging regarding the sped up Nunchaku scene from ETD.
It seems most likely the diffent speed would be (possibly) due to camera set ups rather than a post production effect.
Diffent cameras may have been calibrated differently?
Also due to the different angles, the apertures and sometimes shutter speed are different which seems to make sense.
Not evidence but could explain it. As you said we've seen Bruce spinning Chucks with some serious speed.
Keep up the good work mate.
Great collectables Stripey! I’ve got the first two KFM Archive books by Carl and they’re great: a quality product that brings back fond memories. Apparently there was a showing of a special edition of ETD at the 2023 Rise of the Dragon event. I’d be really interested to know what additional footage was in it.
Additional things included in that screening was:
- Concord intro
- Golden Harvest logo
- Used Lee's own voice for the monk scene (using Little's dub for the missing dialogue)
- Replaced International intro with Chinese one
- Moved Lee's first meeting with Mai Ling to after the first day.
- Included additional footage of conversation with Lee and Mai Ling (had dialogue recorded from script), with Lee changing from his white jacket into his black catsuit and exiting through the door
- Added a small shot of Lee striking Oharra from a different angle during their fight
- Added additional footage of Lee's second conversation with Mai Ling (which explains why Lee uses the window instead of the door to go out into the night)
- Chinese end credits instead of international ones
I think that was everything. We had positive feedback from it anyway.
@@kungfumonthly8527 Thanks for the info! Great that this movie is offering up extra bits after all these years. All we need now is for someone to trawl the Warner Bros vaults to find any other footage… Here’s hoping!
Thanks for the info! Great that this movie keeps on giving. Here’s to more footage coming to light in the future 👍🏻
Great video Stripey. Like the covers on the SHOUT releases
Nice shirt player.
Happykungfudayloveya!
Hey stripey do you have the enter the dragon 25th anniversary edition VHS box set with the CD soundtrack.
No, mate. but I have the 25th region 1 DVD box with the CD. 👍
Very generous, awesome stuff, congrats.
Still got all my kung fu monthly’s got my letter published in the kickback section.
😂Omg stripey 😮I'm jealous I'm not going to lie, man very generous of him, see as i always said and say, it costs nothing to be nice, i can see the delight on your face mate, i used to be like that with my mates, when they were in my 1st man cave, they could get over all the nick nacks of Bruce Lee in enter the dragon mostly 😂i had, and I'd simply take the item down and give it to him, providing it was looked after properly, i lost my 1st collection, to an accident, belive it or not, he still has the enter the dragon promotional flag from the Premier from the states, he offered it back, but refused, when i gift you something it's for keeps, take care Darren and enjoy you deserve them mate 💯✌️🇮🇪✌️🤜🤛👊👊👊#1940to1973 #brucelee #foreveryoung #jeetKuneDo #ENTERTHEDRAGON #KungFuMonthly
New stripey !!!
Met Carl Fox at the last 2 events with Andrew stanton ❤
HELLO matey I noticed you reacted to my comment about The nunchiku scenes possibly that 1camera may of been slowed down and the other kept at normal speed but you didn't give any thoughts on the idea ,I'm just interested if you considered it plus did you get a chance to check out the Brandon interview in Australia 1992 ? It's quite a famous one I'm sure you've seen it loads of times but it's worth going to have a look at it again as we forgot exactly what is said due to the 100s of interviews people like me and you have seen on Bruce it's quite classic actually and I love the way Brandon says his Dad was ridiculously fast anyway still enjoying your videos lucky you getting all the posters and bits and bobs from The Bruce lee monthly I was actually chuffed for you I enjoyed watching your face light up 😂🤙
The King 🤴 of Jeet Kune Do and Kung Fu Master Bruce Lee 🤴
Talking of goodies, please could you do a review of The Goodies "Kung fu kapers," including "ekithump". I'm sure all your subscribers would love it. Also Bruce is mentioned a lot in the episode of Steptoe and Son as well.👍
That episode of Steptoe and Son is a real crack up and had me in tears.
How I wish I would have been 18 in 1974 when Enter was released here.
Watching that episode and seeing the poster being shown at the cinema when it's going off was true nostalgic.
I also love the way they both refer to Lee and Han in that episode.
Bruce would of been in stitches Watching that episode.
Good on the writer giving Bruce tribute to his greatest of films.
Glad you mentioned it because not many people are aware of it.
👍👍
I remember "ekithump" 🤣with the sausages (i've not seen that in years)
I also remember the Steptoe and Son episode, with Steptoes coming out of the cinema, after watching ETD.
I'll have to track them down to have a re-watch 👍
@@StripeyR The episode was called "The Seven Steptoerai"
@@StripeyR The Steptoe episode is on CZcams but The Goodies are
on other sites.
I read somewhere a man literally died laughing from a heart attack watching the ecky thump episode!
His widow supposedly wrote to the Goodies to say she didn't blame them and at least her husband died happy!
What was the name of the boy getting lesson of Bruce,
Mr Lee said to Braithwaite, "It's Lao's time" 😉👍
@@StripeyR Does he mean the actor playing the boy's REAL name ?
@@karatefella Wei Tung 👍
Stripey as big as a Bruce Lee fan that you are? Have you ever felt the urge to study; Wing Chun or JKD?
I had a go at Wing Chun, but I felt a bit kak handed.
Regarding JKD, I think that was Bruce's personal expression of martial arts. People will disagree, but that's my feeling on it. Cheers 👍
Ok but I just thought I would ask the question? Peace Dude.✌🏾
Thanks for the showing of your gift from king fu monthly Stripey, i really enjoyed it cheers mate.👍🏻✊🫶🏻
Lovely gesture from Carl. You certainly helped sell a few tickets Stripey 🎟️ I’ve got those individual shout factory releases. They were excellent for the time 👍 I had to buy all those KFM mags second hand. By the time I got into Bruce they have finished being published. Still have them somewhere. Got them all including the trade dummy for a fair price back in the late 80s early 90s. That trade dummy goes for crazy money now. And I never understand people disliking videos. I get it on my channel. Don’t like it go and watch some Beerdy BS videos. Probably more their level 🤣
It was very nice of Carl.
I do wish I'd kept all my KFM magazines & books and other paraphernalia I got back in the day.
Regarding the dislikes, mate, it comes with the territory (it all helps the algorithm)
I got some hate on the nunchaku video I put out (like you said, I upset fanboys).
It is what it is.
Have a great weekend, pal 👍
@@StripeyR some fans can’t handle the truth sadly Stripey. I thought Bruce was all about truth in the martial arts and life. I guess the fanboys missed that bit. Have a great bank holiday weekend buddy. Hope we get some decent weather for a change.
