Go watch Enter The Dragon on HBO Max and/or Be Like Water doc on ESPN+.

Bruce would have continued to change the world for the better if he continued living. Dude was a legend, pimp, and bad ass.

 

[Rawker]

My style? You could call it the art of fighting without fighting.

 

[GreyHorace]

He was not the greatest actor, but goddamn did the man have great screen presence and physicality to pull off looking like a badass effortlessly.




Gone too soon Dragon.

 

[Cunth]

Legend

[Slings and Arrows]

Imagine getting your arse kicked by a guy who took his haircut from a Lego-man.

 

[Kenpachii]

Pretty insane how the guy only walked for 32 years on this planet and got so famous everywhere.

 

[Riven326]

I have the bluray collection that includes seven or eight films. I grew up watching these and it's wonderful to be able to watch them again in their original language.

 

[Stitch]

He even beat up Jackie Chan

Gone too soon Dragon.

What an absolute shitshow of a sequence.
Four minutes of fighting, and there's only about 4 cuts.
That's just shit.
Should be 1 cut per second, not per minute.

Epic fail.

I've been reading through 'Bruce Lee's Fighting Method' over the last few months as a part of my exercise regimen. He was a bright guy, focusing on the concrete functions of a particular move or tool, and he was obsessed with training himself. Jeet kun do was/is definitely an everyman's martial art, teaching the best, simplest tools. tbh I've only seen two of his movies and they were pretty goood, but I prefer the schlocky Shaw Brothers-style martial arts movies of that era.

Remember when the larpers in Portland tried to mimic Hong Kong folks by saying 'be like water'.

Never was a very big fan of the Brucester but there's no denying his awesomeness.

 

[Alx]

I like videos showing in slow motion how his moves are more complex than you realize (and with cameras barely able to catch it)

 

[Fugitive Sex]

Everyone should beat up Jackie Chan. He's a traitorous and hypocritical cunt. Not to mention a worthless womanising parent.

Is it any wonder why he choreographed his own fights? He wanted to incorporate his philosophies on martial arts and demonstrate them onscreen. That's why you see a lot of feints and dirty tactics such as biting.

Bruce Lee would have a career in UFC if around today

 

[Kagey K]

I just tried to imagine what an 80 year old Bruce Lee would look like. I can’t do it.

this is the way, study the masters
