Tony Jaa for Game of Death Remake


29/12/2009 Dated and sent to Miss Ralley.
(Just in case someone steals the idea!)

As a lifelong and on going fan of Bruce Lee I had an interesting and maybe blasphemous thought this morning while eating my sausage sandwich.
As we all know, the 1978 version of Game of Death was a good bad movie, an opinion shared by true BL fans. Non BL fans would probably laugh not knowing the back story or even care about it.
The 1973 version was incomplete & too short to make a coherent film, although still better than the '78 film.
So what about, with the decade of pointless remakes behind us, a new version of GOD?
Tony Jaa as the lead and assorted experienced Martial Artists for the different levels of skill as intended in the original script.

Japanese producers, Hong Kong action directors & Thai stunt coordinators.
A mixed language soundtrack but with John Barry's score intact.

I challenge anyone to disagree that Tony Jaa couldn't pull it off but maybe some ideas, suggestions or arguements against my ideas!

There is no help but self help...
