I hope and I'll love to see in the Lee's version the Bruce Lee rule the pagoda scene, perhaps is the most important scene and the most geat scene never shot, easy to do today with CGI technology.
Mr Thau if you read this forum, please ask to the warner and Golden Harvest if you can re-create this scene.
in the new Enter the Dragon scenes, i presume, you must create new special effects for the Evil Han loss of power and for the abbot scene, so you can use CGI to Bruce Lee rule the pagoda too!
i think that the scale of this sequel grown up in a very very powerful level.
EXT. KOREA MONUMENT - DAY
The face of BILLY LO fills the screen. His voice booms
out with a deep, penetrating quality.
BILLY LO
I am Billy Lo! Listen to me,
people of the village!
CAMERA PULLS BACK: BILLY is perched on top of the Pagoda
in Popjusa.. He stands erect on the
pointed apex of the tall, needle-like edifice, his voice
echoing across the landscape as terrified TOURISTS below
scream, run away in panic.
LO
Today I bring a New martial art called Jeet Kune Do!
One which shall last until the end of
time! Each of you......
INT./EXT. PAGODA - DAY
DANNY INOSANTO and KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR stand petrified inside and out of the Pagoda and giant Buddha as BILLY LO continues
BILLY LO
....this bamboo is longer, more flexible and very much alive.
EXT. PAGODA - DAY
CAMERA LOOKS THROUGH the village, across the
River.
BILLY LO'S VOICE
It is hard to have a rehearsed routine to fit in with .... broken rhythm
EXT. MONUMENT - ANGLE LOOKING DOWN
CAMERA LOOKS DOWN PAST BILLY LO. Police cars with flashing
lights begin to converge in the distance.
BILLY LO
The classical mess of martial arts attempts to solidify what was once fluid.
EXT. SHANGHAI- DAY
An aeriel view of the Ching Woo school in flames, the fire
spreading throughout Shanghai.
BILLY LO'S VOICE
There is no longer a need for separate
martial arts in this world, no need for petty
squabbles between one group and another ...
EXT. TOKYO - DAY
TOKYO is in flames. Thousands of JAPANESE MARTIAL ARTISTS flee through the
streets.
BILLY LO'S VOICE
All of you will work together, strive,
train, and sacrifice together - and all for
a common goal!
EXT. HAN's ISLAND - DAY
The island is suddenly bathed in a strange
LIGHT.
BILLY LO'S VOICE
It is useless for you to resist as
it is for you to try grab water ... you put water in the cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a teapot it becomes the teapot ...
When your flashy routines cannot keep up with the speed and elusiveness, you will only bring death and destruction
upon yourselves ...
EXT. HAN'S ISLAND
The island melts under the heat, sags, then
collapses like a toy.
BILLY LO'S VOICE
....while I will lose the potential to express myself honestly....,
There is now one art, one order, one Sifu
who alone will determine your collective
destiny!
EXT. PAGODA- DAY
BILLY LO continues to rant on top of the pagoda.
ANGLE ON BASE OF MONUMENT
A police car has pulled has pulled up at the base of the
Monument. Flak-jacketed KOREAN OFFICERS pile out, their CAPTAIN
holding a bullhorn.
CAPTAIN
(to BILLY LO - through bullhorn)
You are trespassing on Korean martial arts
property - illegally occupying a martial style
monument.......
BACK TO BILLY LO
BILLY LO'S eyes flash with anger as he looks down.
BILLY LO
I will not repeat myself again! There is no
separate style! Therefore there cannot be a monument
to one!.....
WIDER ANGLE
BILLY LO jumps off, smashes into the pagoda lower down: It
crumbles into pieces, the cascading shower of wood
burying the police cars and OFFICERS below.
CLOSE ON BILLY LO doing a flying kick IN MID-AIR
BILLY LO
From this day forward -
there is only Jeet Kune Do!
what's the incredible it is! it's simple and in Bruce Lee old films there various landscape and skyline all over the world to help it
Mr Thau try to do it please!!!
