Remake? How do you improve on perfection and why would you want to? I was fortunate enough to know the man as a child , his intelligence was astounding yet he was very humble he liked kids. He never talked down to me he made me understand him by how he talked to me.

a being as he called it..no one today could come close to Bruce's intellect or amazing magnetic personality that was his and his alone..no manner of PR or Hollywood hype will ever take the place of his extra ordinary dedication to film and martial arts and he has a star on the walk to prove it.

some people cannot be replaced nor should they be it was a very special time and a new remake..well it just isn't the same..nor will it ever be. Its his best and final film respect the man and the film..
LEAVE IT ALONE

and you're right if he were here they wouldn't remake
it I wouldn't want to be the one on the phone with him telling him that one..no Thanks..as he used to tell me.."I don't think so.".when he disagreed.

Remake "Enter the Dragon?" Wow, Warner Bros. is either insane, on drugs or both. Bruce Lee was one of a kind. I could understand a remastering of the original film, but a remake? Moronic!

It was kind of painful watching 'Game of Death' with a double for Bruce (as he died before completing it). The only Bruce Lee film I skip to the final fights, just imagine, a NEW guy trying to kick ass like Bruce... its not gonna happen. These days the West has hardly any 'expert' fighters in movies, they use quick editing, teach a few basic kicks and punches and add a lot of sound effects. This is on the same level of insane as Kevin Smith's idea of casting Jake Gyllenhall (who I admire as an actor) as Kato for The Green Hornet movie... HE'S NOT EVEN A MARTIAL ARTIST, LET ALONE ORIENTAL?!

I'm annoyed with this too, I can understand with remaking J-Horror but this is ridiculous!

These types of remakes make me sick. You don't see Japanese filmmakers remaking Kurosawa flicks. Because they respect the legends. Bruce was a legend and an icon, this would disrespect all the effort and hard work he did to establish Asians in the West. They should just put a ban on remakes. Of ANY kind.

Otherwise when watching previews at the theatre... (deep grisly voiced trailer narration guy)"Coming soon... The Godfather, a remake of Francis Ford Coppola's classic. Starring Jude Law, we know he cannot act. But young girls will watch it for him. This movie is made by sell outs who only want money. So you know it's gonna be terrible. From the director of 'Bratz: The Movie', The Godfather, the remake. Coming soon..."

THIS is what Hollywood has become. I ask for a petition against sell-out remakes in Hollywood.

this is one film they should leave alone.BRUCE LEE is a legend and ENTER THE DRAGON is still the best martial arts film after 30 years.ENTER THE DRAGON is BRUCE LEE'S film alone and a classic and should be left like that.BRUCE LEE died just before ENTER THE DRAGON was released,so show some respect and leave this film alone.

Bruce Lee made his skills art but lets face it, the film really sucked. They remade better movies I dont see why they wouldnt be allowed to remake a B-Movie.

Two words. "Screw Ups..."

If you try to remake Enter the Dragon, you'll ruin it completely, and destroy the image that is Bruce Lee, and were Bruce Lee still alive, they wouldn't be doing this, because he'd have something to say about it, and if I know Bruce Lee, with his temper, it wouldn't be too nice.

WHAT THE HELL IS WARNER BROS. THINKING?!! Bruce Lee is a legend! They really need to leave this idea alone. There isn't a damn thing they can do to improve on the original film, it still holds up as a good martial arts film today. This is just a cheap way to cash-in on Lee's film legacy while pandering to the spoiled, snotty teens of today who are to ignorant too appreciate a perfectly fine movie just because it doesn't have the latest young stars and whiz, bang effects.

This is from a movie fan who does appreciate a good remake of a film when there is a good reason for doing so. But I see no good reason for doing a remake here. Please let Mr. Lee rest in peace. And his legacy intact.

can you think of something original? Think about how many movies are out there. Its either too cheap rip offs of the same tiring stuff we've seen before or do remakes.

Bruce Lee didn't need special effects or anything else to make the movie great. I don't think a remake is going to please many Bruce Lee fans. I'll be amazed if it does the original justice.

Anything for a buck, Hollywood. Anything for a buck. There is NO GOOD REASON to remake this film other than for a quick, lazy buck. Enter The Dragon is a CLASSIC, and no one-- NO ONE-- can replace Bruce Lee. And yes, I've seen all of Tony Jaa's films. He's great, and has the potential to be a martial arts legend in his own way, but he ain't Bruce Lee. Tony Jaa has his own style, and should become a legend in his own films. The end.

Ooh, I know. Maybe if you cast Jackie Chan in it, then give him a black sidekick, like... oh, I don't know... Chris Tucker. Now THAT'S Hollywood.

you guys all know theres ppl out there that were and probably are way more intense than bruce lee ever was, just most likely they don't make movies or are super low key about stuff.

tony Jaa would do an excellent job though. he's jackie chan, jet li, bruce li, chuck norris all rolled up into one lmao.

Enough with the remaking of amazing movies!!!! You CANNOT improve them, or recapture their glory!!

I will not watch this unless it has Tony Jaa (The Protector, Ong Bak: The Thai Warrior) in it.

Bruce Lee is the best tactician of the martial arts, he used whatever was appropriate in a situation instead of a style or format of moves, he adapted that is why he is the best, I wonder who will play Bruce lee's part in the new "Enter the Dragon" Hunter

I agree with everyone, bruce lee was the one and only, nobody can copy him, he is the original, he is enter the dragon, which is one of my favourite films, nobody can replace him, this is a classic and should be left like this, it would just be wrong to try and remake one
