31. Agentdc7 has a brilliant but evil mind.

32. Caucasians are not stonger than one ticked-off Chinese guy.

33. Indian sepoys look a lot like Chinese with brown makeup.

34. The Japanese Ambassador really doesn't have much to worry about now that the hero is dead, so why leave the Ching Wu School alone?

35. In 1908 China, Japanese and white people wore suits that apparently came back in the 1970s.

36. Biscuits are definitely not a health food.

37. The Chinese students at Ching Wu couldn't have been that great if the Japanese wiped them out. Where were the Japanese dead?

38. When a ticked off Chinese guy tells you to leave, leave.

39. If you don't want to leave, at least don't be stupid enough to attack him one at a time.

40. Kung Fu fighters come big and small, but Smith & Wesson beats them all.

41 - When your guts are hanging out, worry about someone who is already dead.

42 - After being hit in the face full force, you can still execute a perfect knee kick.

43 - It is easy to hang a corpse that weighs 50 pounds more than you without anyone noticing.

44 - It is necessary to disguise as a telephone repairman in order to find out that Russian wrestlers are very strong. It is okay to risk the real repairman showing up and asking: "What the hey?" While you are in the boss's office, don't kill him, along with the other goons. Wait till it is night, so that everybody will wake up and ask: "What's the *beep*ing noise?"

True, but due to the poor HK cinematography it looks like his nipples are the clue. Plus that is what I thought when I was young and most everyone else does when I show the Fist of Fury. It is funnier anyway.

Dalton and Craig! Accept NO substitutes!

It's not a good a good idea to wear white to a funeral when its raining.

[–] comic_geek05 15 years ago

White is the color of mourning in Asia.

[–] muzilon 16 years ago

Large glasses make perfect disguise when everyone is looking for you.

Of course - look at Clark Kent/Superman.

46. Lamp posts make good places to hang your dead bodies until you can come up with a better place.
47. Chinese cops will always give you another day to get your s**t together.
48. One way to get out of a relationship you're tired of is to go on a revenge-inspired killing spree.
49. Girls can Kung Fu, too. Just don't tell them any secrets because they can't be trusted.
50. Bruce Lee is the best MA artist of both the 20th and the 21st centuries.

51- If you kill, and maim, and beat enough people to death, your substitute teacher will realize you were right, and that he was wrong.
52-Don't name your children Fung Guai Shur: Apparently, translation means "Traitor","Coward" or "Chicken Sh*t"
53- Asian People can play "Steppin' Fetchit" roles too! Just look at Mr. Woo the interpretor for the Japanese school!
54- Apparently, there aren't too many telephone poles in Shanghai: They double as hanging posts, also.
55-Fighting causes acne problems.(Bruce has a couple of Pimples on his forehead)
56-Japanesse geisha dancers look like "Mrs. Livingston" from "The Courtship of Eddie's Father".(YES!!!I AM SHOWING MY AGE!!!)
57-If you have "Lost Your Tongue", apparently slapping up side your head will cause it to reappear.
58-If you're from "Rusher", and can say "Let Me Take Care O Him", sounding like Sylvester Stallone, and Dolph Lundgren at the same time, you can get into a Bruce Lee Movie.
59-When it rains, during a funeral in Shanghai, the dirt will not get wet.
60-Now, make sure you listen, because I will only say it once..."We are not sick men"

61. Japanese, East Indian, and White people are all no good racists and only Chinese are nice.

62. When it rains in Shanghai, nobody gets wet.

63. If you're Bruce Lee, you can even lift up a rickshaw by the poles, defying the laws of physics.

64. No matter how many Japanese karate students you beat up, more will attack you, often one at a time.

65. A major villain will never make a sudden frontal attack. They will insist on dancing around you first.

66. White and modern Asian people in 1908 (or whenever) wore the same hairstyles as people in the early 1970s.

67. The Shanghai International Police Force drove cars and used American handguns that didn't come out until the 1930s in 1908. When was that movie set anyway?

68. You can eat a roasted lizard in a graveyard even if you don't have a knife to field dress and clean it.

69. You can bash someone over the head with a shovel without hurting them.

70. Don't take a flying leap while screaming at a bunch of policemen with their guns out. You might make them mad at you.

71. Two lame-a$$ Japanese karate students punching you in the stomach two or three times will immediately make blood squirt out of your mouth.

72. Chinese people are all attractive and wholesome-looking, Japanese people are all sleazy-looking, goofy, bad teeth, wear ugly mustaches, and so on.

73. Pick up two Japanese guys off the floor, spin them around, and they'll morphed into rag dolls.

75- Jackie Chan makes a good stunt man
76-I don't care how old he is,Steve Martin is the only white haired man in 1970s karate movies
77-Prarie Dogs are delish, and can be found in any graveyard
78-Bruce only packed two outfits for his trip to his teacher's funeral
79-Table cloth makes good fabric for a girls two piece lounger.
80-No matter what, Bruce Lee looks good kicking someone's ass.

82 - In any country, at any time in history, when you need to whip up a firing squad to kill a chinese martial artist the white dudes will be in the front row.
83 - 1908 Japanese officials look & dress just like 1944 Japanese officials from WW2 3 Stooges movies.
84 - 1970's MA movies are WAY too focused on MENs nipples, while a nicely-endowed stripper gets to keep hers hidden.

Alot of really good/amusing ones here. "Number 73" is my favorite.

The ones about 70's hairstyles in a film supposadly taking place in the early 1900's is very obvious,so too the cars they show.
