It's a product of its time, like a time capsule.
A remake seems even less relevant than redoing those 80s classics.
You're never going to stop Hollywood doing remakes, but I'd rather they use some imagination and do something new.
Why I love ETD.

For me, Enter The Dragon is all about that cast. I’d love to see that same cast in another movie but not a different cast in the same movie, if you know what I mean. It’s not like it’s such an amazing story that it will make for a strong retelling. As already stated, it’s a thing of its time and that’s exactly why it’s great.

I remember there being talk of CGI using "Synthespians" to replace actors who have died.
It's starting to happen with the like of Oliver Reed in Gladiator and Peter Cushing in Rogue One.
If you remember, Lee appeared in one of those UFC games.
They also used his likeness in some adverts like these for Johnny Walker and Nokia,

Yuen Wah is awesome in his own right, though!
I particularly liked him in Eastern Condors and Dragons Forever:

Paul Bramhall has written an article about why he thinks ETD is overrated.
As much as I like the film, it’s difficult to disagree with many of his gripes.
The concept of this remake is totally pointless. It’s a Bruce Lee film, a product of its time, and served a specific purpose at its time.

[MENTION=7343]prinnysquad[/MENTION] - I think your most important part there is that you like it. In all honesty, if someone has to explain to you why it's not is good as people say, who cares? If it's rated (and it is) then it entertained people, it resonated with people, it was cool to them. I don't know who Paul is but he can go take it somewhere else.Last edited by Dogg Thang; 24-07-2018, 14:48.
