Sadly this is contradicted by all your posts poo-pooing martial arts in favour of 'out larding' your opponent!

On the contrary ..... what I have always said is that a streetfighter can beat a Martial Arts Master any day of the week you care to mention.

And I stand by that

I can be a Martial Arts Master and STILL realise that a StreetFighter would put me in hospital before I had shouted, "EEEEEEAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYAAAA"

Its in 2.35:1 widescreen* but its the ****e dubbed to English version. The original Cantonese version is much better and its surprisingly easy to read the subtitles and watch at the same time. Still my favourite Bruce Lee fim though...

*bummer! its just dropped to 16:9
