Spike Lee to remake Enter the Dragon.

What the...................I don't know about this.

SPIKE LEE TO REMAKE ENTER THE DRAGON

BROOKLYN – Maverick director and graphic design encourager, Spike Lee has confirmed this week that he will be remaking classic Kung Fu pic Enter the Dragon.

The news came following what was seen by many as a disappointing business on the 2013 Oldboy remake starring Josh Brolin of last year. Spike cordially told the Studio Exec:

I’ve had a taste of Far East cinematic cuisine and just like the actual cuisine of the Far East, it has left me hungry for more. I began to get a real grasp of the action dynamics and this time I will be going full out.

The new Enter the Dragon will star Ken Yeong of The Hangover ‘fame’ in the role made famous by Bruce Lee, Lee, a martial artist who agrees to participate in a tournament the better to spy on the doings of an evil crime lord. Billy Bob Thornton will play Roper, the American who aids Lee, a role originally played by cult movie legend John Saxon in the 1973 original.

So it's a wacky comedy with Ken Yeong?

It was already done in "Kentucky Fried Movie".

The "Oldboy" remake was horrible!

But I just rewatched "25th Hour" and "He Got Game" and those are good!

"25th Hour" is especially good if you have a young friend that got sentenced to prison, whom you had a few last gatherings for.

Spike should rethink this project.

Oops! I thought the title of this thread was saying that Spike was remaking "The Last Dragon" (Berry Gordy's) lol Funny thing is that I was ticked off about it. Lol!
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

Is he so frustrated with his inability to get his pet projects made? An Inside Man sequel can't be made, but this can? I may go see it but I still say he could find another project.

Bruce Lee's Enter The Dragon is one of those movie classics that should NEVER be remade at all.

I say the same thing about The Breakfast Club.

wow, this should NOT be done. Enter The Dragon is a classic. Hed do better with a remake of Get Christie Love or Cleopatra Jones.
