Men ærligt talt så tror jeg ikke at nogen film kan slå 'Mr No Legs' når det kommer til kampsport.

Filmen har også et herligt bar slagsmål der indbefatter både transvestitter, dværge og race stridigheder! Den SKAL kort og godt ses!

||-18 March 2011-||



Continuing our passionate commitment to deliver the very best in Asian action-cinema through our pioneering Cine Asia brand, Showbox Media Group is proud to announce the re-birth of the celebrated Hong Kong Legends action-cinema label. Under the new releasing banner, 'CINE ASIA presents HKL', Showbox is set to bring the label back to life, and will re-release the cream of Entertainment One's Asian film catalogue, including Jet Li's Once upon a time in China series, Jackie Chan's Police Story 1&2 and Donnie Yen's world-famous, Iron Monkey.

Originally launched on February 7th 2000, Hong Kong Legends broke new ground in the presentation of classic Hong Kong Cinema titles. Undertaking an extensive film restoration programme and developing an entire range of exclusive bonus material, HKL was considered the gold-standard in Asian Cinema until its part-discontinuation in 2007.

To celebrate the 70th Anniversary of Bruce Lee's birthday, CINE ASIA presents HKL will first re-release the feature-packed 2-Disc Ultimate Editions of Bruce Lee's illustrious movies The Big Boss, Fist of Fury, Way of the Dragon and Game of Death, along with the brand-new Cine Asia Blu-ray and DVD release of Young Bruce Lee on 30th May 2011.

Executive director of Showbox, Steve Rivers says, "We are absolutely delighted to be working with Entertainment One and thrilled to be handling these prestigious classic titles again!"

Director of Home Entertainment at Entertainment One, Jon Bourdillon adds, "We are excited about this famous library being handled by the Asian film experts Showbox; we think that the combined line up of the Cine Asia and HKL titles provide a compelling proposition for trade and consumers alike."

The infamous saw scene (mentioned in the alternate versions section) apparently was shown only once to an open public and that was the film's original premiere in the fall of 1971 in Hong Kong. Co-star Maria Yi herself said it was present in the film but didn't look very realistic. Ironically, this was part of the rumor for years as to why the scene was never shown again.

Was this, the most notorious and well known of all the censored scenes, ever in the film? Does it still exist, and if so, where is it? These questions have been the source of much debate and discussion among fans for decades. There has been some speculation that the footage was never actually used because the makers of the film couldn't get it to work. Not so; the scene was certainly shot and included in early Mandarin prints, but oddly, a few fans have reported it was NOT in the otherwise uncut print screened at the Bruce Lee Film Festival in 1979. It appears that a few months after the film's release, there was a major censorship campaign undertaken in HK, and, not surprisingly, this scene was among the first to go, although for a time prints remained largely intact, hence the 1979 print contained most - but not all - of the missing scenes. A few collectors even claim to have seen it on video, but I am sceptical about this because no bootlegs have ever been in circulation. I suspect that such 'sightings' are simply cases of mixed memory, with photos of the scene being confused with actual footage in the film where people are struck on the head by a hatchet and a flashlight. Notice during the fight how much people have moved after the edit has occurred. Just before the cut, Bruce kicks a thug wearing a light-blue T-shirt (stuntman Peter Chan). He falls back towards the ice blocks, and one photo (see below) shows him actually on the ground. However, a second later, after the edit, he has moved considerably and is back on his feet attacking Bruce again with a pole, which Bruce promptly kicks in half. This leads me to believe that there may have been more to the missing footage than meets the eye, but in truth it is probably just a huge continuity error.
The scene would have played something like this: after Bruce picks up the saw, he wards off first attacker Tony Liu and then kicks a man to his left who runs at him with a pole. Another assailant in a dark-blue shirt then approaches Bruce with a raised knife. Bruce swings the saw overhead and embeds it into the man's head, splitting it straight down the middle, causing blood to pour down his face and shirt (this is seen from the side, as in George Tan's still frame shown above). After a scream of pain (which you can actually hear in part on the original Mandarin soundtrack), the man falls back with the saw still inside his head, and then we cut back into the usual censored version of the scene, with Peter Chan attacking once again. Although brief (probably just a few seconds), this is nevertheless an extremely annoying omission which disrupts the flow of the fight dramatically, and is certainly the most (in)famous censored scene in the Bruce Lee canon of films.

Photos below courtesy of David Tadman and Brandon Bentley - these two colour photos show that the cameras kept rolling after the scene we can see in the edited version, when Bruce picks up the saw. He swung the saw overhead and placed it to the side of the attacker's head, so this is not how the scene would have appeared in the film.
