By the time The Blg Boss and Fist of Fury made it to America, someone wanted to make a box-office connection to The French Connection and have The Big Boss changed to The Chinese Connection because of the heroin smuggling taking place in the movie. But like everywhere you go, we find idiots in this world, one of those idiots found there way into the place where name tags were assigned and placed the wrong title on these two movies. He put the Fist of Fury tag on The Big Boss film can and then he put The Chinese Connection tag on the Fist of Fury film can. This is not a proven fact, but after a little investigation of my own, I believe it to be the truth. A simple accident by someone with there mind on something else at the time of doing their job let to these two movies being know as something other than what was intended. Instead of fixing the issue, a lot of promotional money must have been spent of the big photos for the movie houses and they didn't want to spend more money on some Chinese low rate movie...just another reason to be angry at the movie industry!   See 2 other replies

Yes, that's what I'm saying. The TV cameras weren't fast enough to capture his movements and the audience would've been lost. The first time he showed up on set and did a routine, the US crew just looked at each other in disbelief: "what just happened?!" So they made him slow down (at least on TV - I don't know about his movies). Another actor with a reputation for not faking fights 'enough' to the stuntmen's taste was Bronson.
As you say, all this wouldn't fly in our liability-conscious times. We just turn to CGI to give the illusion' of contact or speed. Most action appears cartoonish and blurry that way. I just love it when the camera takes a step back and just records the whole action without tricks, but it takes real fighters like Bruce to pull that off and look interesting.   See 3 other replies

Well they did ask him to slow down, one of the directors mentioned asking him in an interview to slow it down because it made the fights seem poorly choreographed and memorized. I also remember Bruce Lee broke one of a stuntman's ribs during filming. I doubt Hollywood could pull that off at any stage.   See 3 other replies
