  1. What if #GameOfDeath met Pitfall – but forgot the thrills? #Fist2's open world promised #BruceLee's pagoda, but delivered a maze of samey screens and forgettable foes. #KareemAbdulJabbar's shadow looms large. Was this ambition or just bad design?

  6. #AfricanFilmPoster #GhanaFilmPoster
    In Ghana 🇬🇭 when posters can't be imported, local artists will bootleg them to the best of their abilities. Some often are more imaginative than the official studio releases.

    #GameOfDeath (1978)
    Martial arts movie star must fake his death to bring down the syndicate that is extorting him & other celebrities - including his pop singer girlfriend - for protection money.

  8. Itʼs hard to truly enjoy #GameOfDeath. You know itʼs not Bruce Leeʼs vision of the #film, itʼs obvious when thereʼs a double (especially when the fashions give it away), and cutting in scenes of his real funeral is, in my opinion, sick. Plus sides: a John Barry score, and a chance to see #BruceLee in action one last time, even if thereʼs little footage. Muhammad Ali, James Coburn and Steve McQueen were right to decline appearing in the movie. #HK
