At the risk of being flamed and/or trolled, I would like to discuss a little about Brandon Lee.
The reason being is I was bored with Fear Factor (hmm, that would be an interesting thread for MAists here, no?) last night, went through my humble collection of KF flicks, and decided to watch (again) "Rapid Fire". No big deal, not even really a good topic, but it got me thinking about Brandon Lee, his skills as a MAist, actor, son of one of, if not the greatest MAist ever.
I noticed some interesting things in the choreography of that movie, put together by BL (uh, Brandon Lee, I mean) and one of the other actors (can't remember his name).
Was it JKD? From what I know, which is next to nothing, about the style, it looked very much like he was using it. Now, of course, we all know Movie-Fu is not Kung fu, so I'm sure there were aspects that were made up to accommodate the action, but I wanted to know what his strong suit was. Did he ever actually get to train with his father? Not much, if any, I'm sure.
(And then there is the strangely ironic way that both their lives were taken so early in life, but that's been played out)
Thank you in advance, and if anyone thinks this is an idiotic topic, I'm sorry. Just trying not to miss all that heavenly glory.
