Context Awesome / DragonTheBruceLeeStory

Go To

1* Bruce Lee is shouted down when he critiques traditional martial art at a karate convention, then he claim he can win over any fighter present in less than 1 minute. The public make fun of him and demand he prove his claim. Epic fight and winning ensue...
2* At a college gym, Bruce outwits and outmatches a JerkJock and his friends, who are fueled by anti-Asian sentiment from the Korean War, yet before leaving him, he tells him:
3-->'''Bruce:''' Sorry about your dad. Those were Koreans. I'm an American.
4** [[DefeatMeansFriendship This later in turn causes the Jock's friends to ask Bruce to teach them.]]
5* And most important of all: the Crowning Moment of Awesome of the movie. After enduring defeat after defeat at the hands of the Demon, [[DarkestHour Bruce is dragged to his very own grave, and the Demon is ready to go after his son Brandon]]. Anybody would be crushed, but he's not anybody: He's Bruce Lee. [[HeroicSecondWind He jumps again]], ready to fight for his beloved son.
6** At this moment, Bruce has nothing. He had tried everything in all the encounters with the Demon during his lifetime. Then a lucky kick reveals, [[HopeSpot after all those years and fights, the Demon's weakness at his neck]].
7** The demon won't buldge. And since Bruce discovered that his neck was his weakness, responded generating spikes on his face, so he wouldn't be able to kick his face again.
8** Bruce, then finds a single nunchaku in the mouth of a Lion. Keep in mind: In western culture, Lions are the hunters, the predators. In Orient lions are seen as guardians and protectors. If the Demon is there to destroy him, that Lion is a protector, giving the means to save his family.
9** Thin, armed with one nunchaku, Bruce starts practicing the stunts he invented. Keep in mind: Those aren't real martial movements but the ones he created for the show. [[HorrifyingTheHorror Yet the demon backed in fear. IN FEAR]] His lifetime as a star paid off, since he sowed the seeds of fear and doubt in the heart of a demon.
