Where can i buy the bronze statue behind shannon. I didnt know there were miniatures of it out there. I searched this website for signs of it and no where to be found.
Please let me know
I’m sorry, I just had to post again. It just fu^%ing blows me away, every time I hear it..
and I’m to when Bruce says: to express oneself honestly; Not lying to oneself. And to express myself honestly. THAT , my friend- it is a very difficult thing to do…
Thanks Bruce
hi Shannon, i was hoping if you find any picture your father instructing bit player then jackie chan before take or sammo hung. and also if you can find pics bruce instructing jackie chan in the movie, “fist of fury” thanks and more power
hi shannon can you pls tell us where can we find the small statue of bruce lee behind you or if it can be purchase so that we can bring and tell every friends of ours that bruce lee is our #1 in the world that change our lives in the way of martial arts when they saw it in our room or house coz ive been looking for some image and miniatures of bruce lee my idol
that was some great footage! its good to see the man behind the scenes. And i too would love a Idol like the one behind you shannon if you dont mind me asking. i would deeply appreciate it. he and his ways have been a guiding light in my life since i first saw enter the dragon as a child.
You are doing a great service to your father, and giving his beloved fans what we need. Could you post some wall paper of the opening fight scene of ENTER THE DRAGON where Bruce is using the Kempo fighting gloves. Keep up the great work and thank you.
Wait I have two more last comment here.Just hold on to your seat on what I will say.Keep it to an account. I’ v been very busy lately on movie story line and software animation design title. Very focus on what I do if not than it will not be finish and never be put out. While I have the drive now and later might not.I know this is the time to work and study more.Later I will show.This is what many will want to see later my movie. What I know at this time for now. Later will be more better.I hope I made some kind of encouragement to all to follow what and how I did it some day. For many to do some what the same.Finding time now to get away to type this for you all to think differently.Here is the start to everything down the road.Thai
I know Mr Lee would have some knowledge of this. Make it your own is what JKD is all about or create something to impress yourself differently.Make it a structure block to what you are going to discover later on.Mr Lee he say in Rome look at this waste of meaning attraction monument.Just sitting there. If it was me I will make it a tourist attraction.Even if money is created to built something new from the original existing structure.We all know Mr Lee will charge you for it to put your money in it. If you want to see it more.This show you are interested and are there living experience part of its meaning being there. If not challenge like always than most will not take it for granted and just passed by it like always. To Mike: Mr Lee was doing what some people are doing today. But that time it was harder.In today time it is similar the same like before. I see around back than it happen.You can deny it but it is reality what we all know and few want to go there or speak of it. If I were to say lets start a radio station everybody would laugh cause why.The way it always was I still not seen an Asian or other culture dominating the radio waves still to this day or the music wise other country. I see only one Hispanic radio station one leap only one. Just like the morning show I not see many other culture there talking or reporting.If many complain what I mean. I know some will say this is a European nation if you have a problem go back to your country.I know many can say this is a European nation. Because I know at least if this land were from the Native American should they dominate the radio waves this is there land right. No not to call them Native American that is a name that were given to them. I call them Native people and what ever are their true names in culture wise. I see people always say we own this land this city and it is made for us.I like to tell that to most that say that no look at the one here a thousand year before you. If the Native never were too nice of a people to give a chance. You would never step on their land to stay this long
and say what you can say now.They would wipe you out even to cross the border and are warn of it.If they only know what would happen generation later would than happen. Look I speak what is real if you like it or not.Sometime expressing something are to much where people can not understand or will not accept and don’t know. If I not said it than they will say you never did speak of it to know or can wait for the next one to come along and speak if luckily when.Really if we are going to go back in time where did the native people came from by checking the DNA their ancestor are Asian. So do not tell me this land is made and dominated by a certain
country race like now.I know more than you would ever even to not believe is true.This is expressing yourself some might hate it but is real.Same thing how Mr Lee would say we all are under one family it just happen that people are different.After saying that the audience did not want to hear of it. What is out there or did not understand the topic meaning just brushing it off like always.Just like now the same thing what I am saying people know and are scared of face to speak
or do not know. I want the culture to all to come together. But as I see it
now it is too slow and many will stop who ever will try to change it wise some how for the next young generation.I see it happen in the past and do not deny it.Even if said or not said to know it happens.For some right purpose you just will never
win. No matter how much you try.I just hope the young. One day can say wow there are to many culture to learn from and see that are on the entertainment show and wave line.Which one to choose. But today I do not see it around soon.Check your radio station and TV shows and see if any dominating mixture culture are there in the U.S.A channels.I hope I put this to all of the minds out there.Thank the Native people if not for them being too nice. We all would disappear now from this land of their which they once migrate before us. We now being all here. Thai
Hi, Shannon, thank you for sharing. I was wondering if there’s any news of when fans might be able to see Ahna Capri’s complete home movie footage from the set of ETD. Also (kind of an ETD wishlist I’ve got here), I’d like to encourage a new, larger, more complete book on the making of ETD; Warner Bros has so many previously unpublished photos from the set (according to collector Jeff Chinn), & Robert Clouse’s book was from a limited perspective, it’s not hard to imagine a better book. Actually (while I’m wishing) a new dvd/blu-ray release could be great, too. Paul Heller’s commentary track on the previous editions was sparse & uninformed, I’d love to hear one from HK film expert Bey Logan as well as cast members like John Saxon, Jim Kelly, & Ahna Capri. What do you think? Any chance for any of this? In any case, thanks for your time & consideration.
Do you know that until today I only have “Enter the Dragom” from all the Bruce Lee movies? Whenever I go to a store they don’t have it, and I am waiting for you guys to have it…so I can have it! I like all of them my favorite being “Fist of Fury”, Thanks!

Hi Shannon, I just wanted to say thank you for sharing with us your thoughts, memories and insights of your families life with us! I know I really enjoy it, as do many other people who are fans of Bruce Lee & also Brandon… much love.
Shannon, just wanted to say THANK YOU for being so active in keeping the spirit of your father and brother alive. What amazing men they both were. Your father set me on the path many years ago, and I’m still at it. Doing my best to help promote what he started. God Bless you.
De la mano de mi padre fue la primera vez que llegue a conocer a Bruce lee, fue entonces en Operación Dragón, que mi fanatismo por las Artes Marciales creció en busca de igualar al más grande de todos los tiempos, Bruce Lee.
Al paso de los años, hoy soy Cinturón Negro 3º Dan Prof. de Kung Fu, mi entrenamiento continúa, pero hay algo que siempre tengo presente y soy conciente de que no va a ver otro tan dedicado a su perfección con su cuerpo y espiritú que Bruce Lee, el sigue siendo un ejemplo a seguir.
I came along this link on you tube i dont know if you have already seen it but it is a CGI version of your dad and it is pretty cool why dont you get your team and put a series of your fathers movies in CGI and that way you can be in them with him and create a series of you in the CGI versions as the version in the link is pretty awesome its better than all the bruce lee look alikes out there! cant believe this CGI has captured bruce lee’s essence! the little things bruce did are reflected.. very good! please check it out shannon its really cool you might like it..
This is my background regarding How Bruce Lee made a total impact on my life .
1973 : Began training in Shaolin Sil Lum Gung Fu under Shaolin Monk Si Fu
John Yee . Si Fu John Yee was friends with your father back in the 1960’s , they use to go out cha cha dancing during that time in OakLand China town Ca.
Your Mom and my Si Fu and Steve Mcqueen attended a Martial arts tournament
together in San Francisco Ca .
I met you and your Mom in person along with a large host of your Fathers , students
friends and family at the Bruce Lee : A Retrospective at the Holiday Inn in San Fransico China Town Ca. in the year 2000 I sat just a few feet away from you and your Mom during the first time showing of Bruce Lee : A warriors Journey .
I began collecting everything Bruce Lee I could get my hands on starting at age 13 in (1973)
About 12 years back I decided to limit my Bruce Lee and Brandon Lee Collecting to only Collecting Rare Bruce and Brandon Lee Documentaries , Bios , Rare Interviews,
and footages that I have collected from around the world .
This also of course includes Rare films Interveiws and footages of you .
Like the Rare film you had a short part in known as She , Me and Her or your Rare Interview at the Uk Martial Arts Club hosted by Cris Alex .
Any thing on film of you , your Mom , Brandon and your Dad I continue to collect.
I own many rare hard to find Bruce Lee Documentaries from Japan TV GOING BACK TO THE 1980s and up to the year 2000.
I own almost every Brandon Lee interview he gave except for the one he did in Germany while promoting Rapid Fire that one is very hard to find .
I walked and talked to you , just you and me one on one in the Bruce Lee Museum during its closing time at the Bruce Lee : A Retrospective Event , It was just you and myself with no one else around . Its was one of the best moments in my life .
I never had the honor to meet your Brother Brandon but even though I never met him I still miss him as I do your Father because these two wonderful people changed and continue to change my life for the better .
Question : There are so many fantastic Interviews of you regarding your Dad and Brother that is shown at your site .
I really wish to own all of your interviews in Dedication to Bruce and Brandon from your site on DVD . I dont have the ability to download these interviews and put them on to Dvd and even if I did have a way to do this I do not know if this would be something that would be ok with you and your staff that run your site .
Is there a way I could purchase on Dvd your Interviews or dedications to Bruce and Brandon shown on your site . This would mean a great deal to me to add these rare Dedications to my Rare Bruce and Brandon Lee films Collection .
If you or your staff ever get time to read my email please do contact me at my personal email address . ThankYou for your time .
Best Regards To You And Yours ,

Some great behind the scene pics! Enter the Dragon is a so much better name than Hans Island. Thank god they changed it.
I think that Bruce was so much way ahead of his time. MMA, although a relatively new fighting sport was basically what Bruce was teaching at the time. Read any of his books and this is evident.
It would be very interesting to see how martial arts of today would be if he had lived.
hi all of you i am a big fan of bruce not only because of his fighting one more thing which makes him my fav is his acting. he was a great actor and great martial artist. he was really a brilliant man. thats why his movies are unforgettable . he is legend. i like Brandon also he was also a great martial artist his fighting style was like bruce .
Hi Shannon,
me and my fanatic bruce lee friends here in the philippines would like to request if you have a picture of bruce lee instructing jackie chan in fist of fury and enter the dragon before takes. also with sammo hung if you have. jackie was unknown at that time so this is a very good collection and i saw a scene in fist of fury wherein jackie was an extra practicing with ching wu students together with nora miao unicorn chan etc before they were attack by japanese counterparts. thanks and God bless
call me old fashion or whatever to me BRUCE LEE is the greatest and best martial artist PERIOD. i don’t care what martial artist comes around today or in the future. mr lee was awesome, fast exceptional actor and had comedy in him too. his films are still kick ass. i get upset when after mr lee passed away people use other martial artist to pretend it was mr lee.especially in chinese connection .bruce only did the last fighting scene before he passed because he was working on enter the dragon when they filmed the last part of chinese connection. mr lee passed before he could come back and do the beginning and middle. anyway if you pay attention you see a HUGE difference in the fighting form. mr lee did enter the dragon, return of the dragon, fist of furry and the ending of chinese connection. mr lee also did green hornet -ALL CLASSICS mr lee always will be my idol number 1 martial atrist period ,best in the world,I MISS YOU BRUCE.
my mistake i meant way of the dragon bruce did the last fighting scenes in chinese connection that was mr bruce lee from beginning to end,they used a different voice, brue real voice was in the movie enter the dragon
Hope you come to London again soon, your dad was the greatest ever action star to cross the screen and your brother would have done hime very proud if he lived.
brucelee was a martial art spirit who had given by the very old chinese ancient spirit to ths planet. iove you bruce!!!
Hi Shannon, Yes i also would like to know where and if the statue is available to be purchased somewhere?? Thab\nk you for sharing!
