The leather motorcycle suit worn by ``The Bride'' and the same yellow colored jersey worn underneath are copies of the tracksuit worn by Bruce Lee in `` Game of Death '' (1978). Additionally, the eye masks worn by the ``Crazy 88'' members under Oren Ishii, played by Lucy Liu, were worn by ``Kato,'' played by Bruce in the television series ``The Green Hornet.''
It goes without saying that the blues is a ``god'' that is worshiped not only in Hong Kong/China, but throughout Asia, and even throughout the world.
"Green Hornet" preview
Well, first of all, the name of the character "Kato" in "The Green Hornet," which made Bruce popular in America, is the Japanese name "Kato." In addition, when he guest-starred in "Ironside," he played a karate master. In other words, he gained popularity in America as a Japanese character. Also, "Kung Fu," which he brought in with the intention of starring in it himself, was rejected and David Carradine took the lead role.
In the midst of such disappointment, I thought, ``Roar! Dragon wake up! When Bruce saw Jimmy's unsteady kicks in "The Jaguar," he said indignantly, "Jimmy's legs are only for standing!" It is said that this anger prompted Bruce to return home and debut in Hong Kong.
