Bruce Lee or Elvis Presley???
#1
Folks,
Whilst having one of those debates, I stated Bruce Lee is definetly more famous world wide today and will last a longer as an Icon then 'Fat Boy' Elvis Presley.
The youth of today talk about and admire Bruce Lee's skills and abilities, the film industry paid tribute by making the Hollywood movie 'Dragon', even fashion designer use pics or stencils of Bruce Lee on their clothes (GRADE A shirts), Beastie Boys paid tribute to Bruce on MTV, and just released 'Platinum Edition' DVD uncut Bruce Lee films (which are placed next to todays actions films) in the available shops, the list goes on.
What are your views?

Geezers,
Obviously my views might sound biased having Martial Art background, but no one I know gives a hoot about Elvis, yet they all recognise Bruce as the Ultimate fighter. Now think about this how many kids right know growing up will be into Elvis not many, but they will grow up watching Jacky Chan & Jet Li movies, and will no doubt learn of Bruce Lee.
Walk around Leicester Square and checkout Bruce Calendars being sold, but no Elvis. Hollywood has made a tribute film for Bruce and now Ali, these guys will I reckon outlast the 'Fat Boy' Elvis in time.
