    Paid my respect to mr lee in 1986 it quite a trek from bonnie Scotland.I still have the photo of me by grave on my bedside unit.I was also at the mandarin film festival as a 16 year old with a guy called mark and the Legendary Maggie smith,Who was one of the biggest lee collectors in the uk.Mark was a projectionist and had all the lee films on 16mm..As for the saw scene in the big boss I can’t remember seeing it..keep up the good work❤

    Really enjoying the Bruce Lee content, Stripey. I've been rediscovering his films recently. As a kid in the 90s I bought the Rank Bruce Lee videos from a carboot sale and I watched them over and over again. I was so excited to find them, I became a fan when I watched Game of Death as a kid, my dad had rented it from a video rental shop the night before. I woke up earlier than everyone else and after watching it I was hooked. My dad woke up and told me about the back story to it, how he never actually finished the film. I was too young to properly understand it at the time,but I did get a feeling like it's like art imitating life. It's nice to discover your channel and it coincides with me discovering some of the most enjoyable films of my childhood. It's also really nice to see the really nice posters that you've made,Stripey, I'm really impressed. I must say that I do like the Golden Harvest films a lot more than Enter the Dragon. It's my least favourite Bruce Lee film. Don't get me wrong, I like the fight scenes, I just think Warner Bros were trying to play it safe far too much with what is basically a James bond script. And having two supporting actors I felt detracted from Bruce, who is the real star. I know that it was a different time. But I would have been even better if Bruce had got to finish Game of Death and Warner Bros got the distribution rights instead

    ETD was the flim bruce lee was trying to make all his life , bruce with this flim acheived his lifes ambition in becoming a world international star and putting hongkong on the world map ,,yes its james bond type ,,but being made in 1973 the world needs to take a bow ,,its the greatest martial arts flim of all time ,,over 50 years later no martial arts flim have come close , but you might disagree,,unless you like van dam flims the joker 😊

    Hi there Stripey, with regards to your being miffed re your artwork I totally agree, this is at the very least bad manners and at the other end of the scale it may constitute copyright infringement. I for one would be annoyed if this type of thing happened to me, so you are right to be annoyed . We always look forward to your videos and as a 64 year young Bruce Lee fan who used to organise Bruce Lee convention here in Scotland in conjunction with an organisation called Martial club. Like you I am going to Seattle next year as part of a cruise and my wife and I will be going to pay our respects to Bruce and Brandon. I have been collecting Bruce Lee merch since 1974 and have retained all of my collection through the years. Thank you for the Bruce Lee content, I have pre ordered the 4k discs of the Golden Harvest box set as well as the Enter the dragon 4k special edition. Thank you for your channel.

Some to make a pure profit and others because they love my hobby as much as me. At the end of the day it spreads the word, Thanks for the detailed Video I enjoyed it.

    Hey there, Stripey! I completely agree with your feelings of frustration and believe you have every right to be upset about this blatant disregard for your hard work and creative rights. Artistic expression is a deeply personal and vulnerable process. When someone takes advantage of an artist's talent and exploits it for their own gain, it not only undermines the artist's effort but also disrespects the integrity of the artwork itself. Your dedication and passion are evident in every stroke and detail of your creations, and it's disheartening to see someone use your work without giving you the recognition and compensation you deserve. Taking legal action to seek compensation is a valid and important step towards protecting your artistic rights. Copyright laws exist precisely to ensure that artists like you are respected and fairly compensated for their contributions. By pursuing this course, you are not only defending your own rights but also standing up for the broader artistic community. While it's regrettable that such situations arise, it's crucial to remember that you have the support of many fellow artists and fans who recognize the value of your talent and creativity. We stand united with you, urging others to respect and appreciate the effort and dedication that goes into creating meaningful art. In conclusion, Stripey, I want you to know that I am on your side. Your artwork is a manifestation of your unique perspective and imagination, and no one should exploit it without your permission. I encourage you to pursue the legal avenues available to you to ensure that you receive the compensation and recognition you deserve. Remember, you have a strong community backing you up, and together, we can make a difference and protect the rights of artists everywhere.

    Hi Stripey. I can understand your frustration. I've been after the Game of Death poster you did for ages to get as part of my Game of Death collection. Would you consider allowing me to buy a copy or do as a swap for a replica miniature tombstone I make. When you go to Seattle check out the Tai Tung restaurant. It was Bruce's favourite and they have one of my tombstones in the corner. Also when you visit Bruce's grave, Jesse Glover and Ed Hart are buried a few feet away to the right. John Saxon is buried near them to. And finally, Charlie Woo (who is in Bruce's book) is buried to the right of the entrance facing the fence. Look for a large vase shaped headstone.👍

    Yeah should have you name credit at least. my brother always has this with his photos published, but then he gets paid for it too lol. When we went to Bruce and Brandon's grave, it didn't have the railings, not sure if it still has the bench to sit on? We planned holiday with Seattle and Vancouver which works out great.

    Hello Stripey. Yes your right, its your work and the guy should have asked for your permission first. In a way its a compliment that he used your work but legally and morally its wrong. I too own 'The Way of the Dragon' graphic book and enjoyed it. Apart from the fact he left out the scene with the bank manager and when Malisa Longo takes Tang Lung back to her apartment ( Actually Bruces hotel room at the Flora Hotel in Rome). You can see his tan leather jacket hanging in the wardrobe. I digress. The WOTD book as you said is a two parter. And that smells of a bit of a cash grab if you ask me, however the fifty years of is nicely done but the guy needs to do hisn legal work first before publishing. Drop him a line Stripey.

    I’m guessing that book may not make tons of money so probably take it as a compliment, but if it does make money then maybe pursue it. Frustrating as I’ve had stuff used and it’s annoying. Maybe contact the book owner and just word it politely Incase he makes more. I remember babysitting at age16 and hiring out Bruce Lee films and was instantly hooked.

    Hi mate. They nicked your artwork. And at the moment I heard you say that is your artwork "This is mine", I immediately thought back about your videos being banned by KZread. You didn't earn any money, just talking enthusiasticly about the artist or album. The author or designer of the book could have asked you or at least they could have mentioned your name with the artwork. On the other hand ....... you're a big Bruce Lee fan and you have to be proud that your artwork is used in a book about Bruce. I can understand your mixed emotions about this. Take care

    Be peeved that they aren't actual posters, just fan art. But you wear unofficial t-shirts all the time. That's taking someone's art without permission all the time. So you can't really quibble when it's your image being taken but you support the taking of others.

    The book has few mistakes. The boss from way of the dragon his name is Jon t benn not bean. The movie poster collection for enter the dragon has game of death written above them. And the synopsis for game of death says along the way, lee meets a female fighter named Ann and forms an alliance with her??? And as for him using your images he should have asked permission he's making money from this book, and I found 3 mistakes which I find annoying for £30 which isn't cheap for what it is.

    The use of the photos without asking is taking a liberty. The copyright claim at the back of the book takes it to downright theft.
