Watched every Bruce Lee movie excluding Game of Death because it has his corpse in one shot [and is just grave-robbing for money].
DRAGON THE BRUCE LEE STORY looks good.
Watching Sammo Hung as the protagonist in 'Enter the Fat Dragon' (Mang Hoi and Yuen Biao are thugs in a fight scene..) . This is probably the best screenshot I could take and possibly the only one until I see some funnier ones..
This year, the Bruceploitation 'THE BIG BOSS PART II' (1976) was finally found.

It seems that back in the apartheid days of the 70s and 80s a lot of wild HK and other Asian films played in the South African cinemas. One big cinema had a lot of these prints and when the owner died his son-in-law took over. That guy formed a video label called Global and he started to put out a lot of these rare films on DVD.
Crude cinema prints were used for the DVD's without any form of restoration but at least it means you can get to see these rare films.
Anyhoo, to make a long story short the Global guy had a print of THE BIG BOSS PART 2 but didn't wish to release it (despite heaps of fans bugging him about it) and in the end he sold the print to a cinema in Zambia. I don't have the name nor location of said cinema.
Film has finally been released on Bluray 1080p HD by Severin Films for their 'Game of Clones' boxset.
