Enter the Dragon - Williams beginning scene

Williams story in Enter the Dragon

[@cliftonmcknight4659]

Would have loved to see him and Bruce fighting side by side at the end of the movie

[@treywilliams6120]

That was supposed to happen.

[@princelevi3733]

@@treywilliams6120 yeah john agent wasn't okay with that.

[@maninfire219]

That would've impacted the film to be a real action packed!!!!

[@maninfire219]

I also had that vision

[@greenb1a]

Yes, that would be a good idea. Instead of getting killed, he could have gotten knocked out by Han and been incarcerated, but later saved by Bruce or the spy girl. He could have joined the final fight on the podium.

[@BurningArt78]

I always loved the flashback to Williams' Kempo / Karate dojo. Just enough background, and so cool.

[@moe_syzslak]

Yeh same here. Was like the senior highest ranking member dropping in for a visit before leaving to rep the Dojo. Love how they captured that sense of prideful interaction between Teacher and Student. Osss

Great dojo! Look how solid the punches where and the double punches very clinical. Aint no old school community dojos now in run down neighborhoods where youth can turn to instead of crime. Reminds me of my youth

[@anthonytaylor7590]

Same with boxing clubs I miss the grime dirt and that smell of hard work and sweat made you wanna train todays clubs are all clean and clinical

All the dojos became Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts.

@@lokeymexican They became Macdojos where you can bribe your way to a black belt in 2 years and make the sensei a rich man. I was suckered by one when I was younger and quit.

[@NetUser-qm2ks]

@Roger Chenkenio And the Sensei when he motions his second to come forward and take over, did you notice that sensei kept his eyes on him just to make sure he had correct form before continuing on to meet Jim Kelly (Williams). Oh, and @Glenn Cumbria that’s f’d up when an adult figure like that or a coach or any person you kinda look up to as a kid and he turns out to be a phony. It can really disgust a person in the thing you wanted to do. Glad you mentioned it. Gotta love Jim Kelly though! He was too busy lookin good. 💯

[@rogerchenkenio7238]

@@NetUser-qm2ks i liked it when he wanted to leave the island and the villian said its not possible! And he replied bullshit mr hand man! And continued by telling him, man you come right out of a comic book! He had mr han in that fight. What got him was when he kicked his hand and hurt his foot . Along when the birds came out of the cages in the opium den. After that he couldn't recover and he lost to the villian.great friendship between roper and Williams. Always wondered how they knew each other and knew karate? Could of served i vietnam? Because Williams said to roper ghettos are same all over the world they all stink. That could be an incredible movie on its own. None the less great to chat with a fellow admirer of the arts....

The coolest character in the movie. Jim Kelly also said he wasn’t t supposed to die in Enter The Dragon. It was John Saxon’s character.

[@razorbackfilms]

Holla Back Club there funny because in a draft I read I can’t recall the date on the script but he lived, and John Saxon died. You’re the only person I have heard mention it.

Man…. the feels. They just don’t make dojo(s) like that anymore. Same for boxing and MMA. I love what the modern gyms produce in terms of fighters but the grind, the sweat and the intensity - hard to find those nowadays.

[@djs9415]

This theme music was so haunting that one day I found myself humming it 30 years after I saw this movie. And one can understand that any piece of music which plays in the windmills of my mind and which I can't recognise are enough to drive anyone crazy.Luckily I was whistling it for let's say the thousandth time when a colleague told me ' Hey don't tell me you are also one of Bruce Lee's fans.That's the Enter the Dragon theme.' Well,he preserved my sanity...

[@madwestboy]

i came here just for this one scene, i love how the music changes up when willams first appear. that piece of music has also been in my head for many years

[@berengerdietiker22]

Seizing and keeping the initiative in the face of trouble is always an excellent thing to do. Those discriminatory police officers took on more than they could handle!

[@maninfire219]

But they didn't prosper, because Jim had the upper-hand(victory)by putting them in their places. Just to show the audience that in this metaphor, everyone in the human race has the right to fight for their civil rights. End the war with discrimination, racism, racial injustice and prejudice and let's "FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH."

[@ws90ninety]

They didn't have bodycams.

[@marty6597]

Its just a shame that ETD did not fully showcase Jim Kelly's fight scenes

[@dzobie]

Yeah I feel you on that one. They actually reversed the roles of John Saxon and Jim Kelly cause Saxon's agent said he wouldn't play the part it if his character gets killed. The other thing was that Jim Kelly and Bruce had talked at length about doing more films together and this was to be just the beginning.

[@lstarrtna4288]

John Saxon the star

[@Castro62]

Back then it was just as difficult for a black man to have a lead role as well as an Asian star which Lee just accomplished prior to his death. Hollywood was seriously discriminating until Lee and Kelly broke those barriers.
