game of death ( 2010 film )
2010 (34th) montreal world film festival - aug. 26 - sept. 6, 2010 - focus on world cinema * world premiere
game of death was horribly done. i have the first box set that has chinese connection, fist of fury, way of the dragon, a special dvd and of course game of death .

and before then, two films made to capitalize on the legend of game of death were made, goodbye bruce lee: his last game of death (1975, starring bruce li) and enter the game of death (1977, starring bruce le)... and one after, the true game of death (1981, starring
bruce lee siao - long
), which ripped off the general plot and sometimes whole segments of the film were redone almost shot for shot .

8 although death race 98 is sometimes referenced as a sequel to death race, based on advertisements, death race and death race 98 appear to be the same game. even the cabinet graphics are identical save for the insertion of the
98
on the banner displaying the name of the game. death race 98 is first advertised in replay in march 1976 and death race is first advertised in the april 1976 issue. given the proximity of these ads to each other and to other coverage of the game death race, with no mention of death race 98, they appear to have been part of the same publicity campaign. the evidence offered by industry coverage from the time period suggests, as i believe, that they were treated interchangeably by the manufacture .

great review. i guess i need to watch game of death ii. i bought that same set for $ 5 at a yard sale and could barely finish the final .
so the uncompleted footage for the game of death sat and collected dust, with some of it being misplaced and lost. greedy producers weren' t about to let this stand, so in 1978, they enlisted the director of etd, robert clouse, to make a new film using the surviving footage, footage from other times in lee' s career, and newly - filmed footage. the result is known simply as game of death .

death race not only helped establish the exidy brand, the game established a pattern for future moral panics regarding video games. death race may have been the first of these, but controversy greeted a variety of subsequent games, many of which, like death race enjoyed a spike in sales because of the publicity. while for the remainder of the ꞌ70s and the early part of the ꞌ80s the public debate on video games moved from concerns over specific text to worries about the arcades themselves, the issue of violence remained simmering in the background, boiling over at the release of certain games or in the face of particularly horrifying acts of violence perpetuated by youth. two particularly infamous game franchises, carmageddon (1997) and grand theft auto (1997) draw inspiration directly from death race 2000 and the legacy of the death race game .
the gameplay of death race is similar to more recent games like carmageddon (1997) and grand theft auto (1997), which allow players to drive over human or humanoid figures in the game world, and which i will discuss in more depth later. death race can be played as a one - or two - player game. the operator could adjust the game to give players between 80 and 135 seconds of playtime per purchased game with games costing 25 cents for a single - player game and 50 cents for a two - player game. each player operates one of two on - screen cars using a steering wheel, pedal, and a shift lever. the objective of play is to hit as many
gremlins
as possible. each struck gremlin leaves behind a cross - shaped tombstone which becomes an in - game obstacle for the duration of the game; because of this, each possible iteration of the game would have a somewhat unique playing field depending on how many gremlins were struck and where they were struck .
filming for both parts started officially on february 15, 2009 [ 31 ] and ended on june 12, 2010. [ 32 ]

( note: these differences are based upon the 2010 theatrical release; it remains to be seen whether future release of deleted scenes, or an extended version of the film, on dvd / blu - ray might address some of these differences. )
i have yet to watch enter the dragon. i will. one warning, if you watch game of death and game of death ii, do it so only for the purpose to reinforce how different a bruce lee movie feels when he’s actually around, and that is to say that bruce is fucking awesome but his copycats are complete rubbish at even being his copycats .
yeah i saw game of death as well & i agre that it was shitty to complet a film with out bruce lee. & fuck kill bill what a peace of cunt faced cock sucking bitch piss, who the hell does silva survermen think she is what a dike
in late 1972, bruce lee was in the middle of filming the film that was to showcase his personal style of jeet kune do, the game of death when he received an offer to star in enter the dragon. the first kung fu film to be produced by a hollywood studio, and with a budget unprecedented for the genre, it was an offer lee was unable to refuse. he was slated to resume filming the game of death as soon as that was finished. alas, before etd was even released, he died .
then here’s my impression for game of death: yes, that’s right. it is horrible… horrible. like omfg what were they thinking. i understand that they tried to make a movie out of the remnant footage of bruce lee before his death, but come on this is just ridiculous. i can’t even imagine how bad game of death 2 is going to be. the only reason i don’t shit on this movie anymore is because there is at most 20 minutes of footage with the real bruce lee near the end of the movie .
an unrelated movie made due to high demand for more bruce, using recycled lee footage as well as deleted enter the dragon footage, new scenes choreographed by yuen woo - ping and kim tai chung, called tower of death, was released in 1981 and in some markets called game of death ii .

death race followed on the success of exidy' s destruction derby (1975), which had sold well. however, while destruction derby was one of at least three car crash games on the market, death race was presented as something innovative and exciting 5. the first of a series of advertisements for the game to appear in trade journal replay boasted of the game' s unique design and linked it to a variety of historical car and motorcycle - loving bad guys :
a scene is added showing death eaters stopping and searching the hogwarts express. their intentions are left ambiguous until explained by xenophilius lovegood much later in the film .
the second advertisement for death race to appear in replay ran the next month in the april 1976 issue. perhaps in acknowledgement of a feature covering the game' s release in the issue, the ad features simple typography with a photographic image of the game cabinet (death race from exidy, 1976). exidy' s marketing and sales manager linda robertson suggests the graphics were at least as important to the game as the gameplay :
the artwork alone on this game... showing the skeletons, gremlins and graveyard... is certain to invite immediate player interest. the play of the game is so much fun they' l come back again and again
( death race from exidy, 1976). more obviously appealing directly to operators, the ad includes promises of high profits and excellent technical service :
had no idea game of death 2 was that entertaining. was still pretty pissed off about the 1st g. o. d. , guess i should check it out. thanks for another great review !
there is a dvd titled “bruce lee: a warriors journey” that talks about the lost footage and original plot of game of death. it shows the all the bruce lee footage and is far more entertaining than the actual movie .
as media outlets cast attention, even negative attention, on the exidy brand and interviewed exidy executives, they raised the profile of the company among operators choosing games for purchase. the infamy of the death race game not only drove sales of the original game, but prodded exidy to release a sequel to the game, super death chase in 1977 8. in a replay article giving a 10 - year retrospective on exidy' s early success, kathy brainard (1983) says that death race received
more media attention than any other game prior to ꞌpac - man. ꞌ
brainard may have been overstating, given the heaps of press received by pong, but her hyperbole makes an important point about death race' s infamy and what that infamy afforded. in addition to helping establish exidy as an industrial player to watch, death race helped drive exidy' s sales and helped secure the company' s financial position .
the best one to watch truly is hard to find. it includes all of lees actual footage from game of death. its called a warriors journey. its on dvd but in honesty it is truly rare and hard to find .

i caught game of death on amc one night. they were just showing the bruce lee footage, none of the filler (probably only 30 - 40 minutes total). it was very entertaining, and my first thought was how similar it was to a video game. fight a boss, win, ascend to the next level .

cut out the bullshit? ! wow! they should have cut the bullshit with game of death. i have that boxset. i never watched game of death ii because of the complete disrespect of bruce lee in the first game of death. it was so damn horrible and utterly disgusting to show bruce’s funeral and corpse in the film. from what the medical reports say he had an allergic reaction to marijuana and a headache pill his supposed mistress gave him. it caused his brain to swell and he died. if you got the enter the dragon special edition dvd, bruce’s wife explains why he wore the yellow track suit. it was to be as flexible as possible and to feel comfortable. thanks for doing the review, james. thuroughly enjoyed watching it .
game of death was one of the last snipes films before he landed in jail, where notwithstanding a plea to the u. s. supreme court, he' ll be for the next three years for tax evasion. the film was released last month on dvd without playing in u. s. theaters .
to explore the lasting impact and implications of exidy' s death race, i will begin with an overview of death race 2000, placing it in its historical and cultural context. i then provide a history of exidy' s death race game and the public response to the game' s perceived violence. by placing the game in the historical context of changing cinema production codes, i show how it served as a flash point in broader discussions about what constituted appropriate subject matter for popular media. additionally, i suggest that, because death race existed in a games market already replete with depictions of militarized violence, the game triggered outrage not merely because it was violent, but because it depicted violence which clearly questioned the state' s monopoly on legitimized violence and did not exist in other culturally accepted narratives of violence, such as the cinematic western. i outline how the reaction to death race did little to squelch the game' s distribution, and instead had the contrary effect of driving sales and vaulting exidy into the national spotlight. further, i argue that the discourse surrounding death race helped forge a strong tie between video gaming and violence in the public imagination, effectively ensuring the development of similarly violent games. this bond has persisted to the present, leading to the development of several similar games, most famously the controversial grand theft auto franchise – the progeny of death race in both theme and reception .

the game of death is a rather damaging account of many people’s over reliance on the belief that television has its limits. though, watching the game unfold, under the bright lights of a cheering audience, the result is really not that unexpected. if you’ve ever watched survivor or fear factor, people will humiliate themselves and others at the drop off a hat. to make the leap to hurting a stranger on what seemed like a legitimate game show isn’t really that much of a stretch, especially considering tv’s recent history of extreme prank shows .

i can’t remember the name of it, but there is a very good documentary about bruce lee and it spends a lot of time on game of death and shows all the footage that he shot prior to his death, free from any of the editing used to make it fit in better with the current movie that exists. everybody should look for it and check it out because watching the fight as bruce intended is just awesome .
wow, to think they would go as far as to put a cardboard cutout of bruce on the actor’s face. they’d might as well put the fake bruce’s face on the real body of bruce, from the original scenes from game of death. at least then it would look half - way decent .
yuri tsivian studied film history in riga (latvia) and moscow (russia) combining it with studying semiotics under the guidance of yuri lotman (1922 – 1993), a prominent cultural scholar of the tartu university (estonia) in collaboration with whom yuri has written a book on film language dialogues with the screen (tallinn, 1994). the author of over one hundred publications in sixteen languages, yuri tsivian is also credited with launching two new fields in the studies of film and culture: carpalistics and cinemetrics. the former studies and compares different uses of gesture in theater, visual arts, literature and film; the latter uses digital tools to explore the art of film editing. visit yuri’s website to learn more about cinemetrics; use your russian to read yuri’s book approaches to carpalistics: movement and gesture in art, literature and film (2010) .

the cocksure snipes of his heyday is sadly missing in game of death, with a script as thin in character development as it is leading quality. with the opening mission being as far back as the characters’s stories stretch, it is hard for the audience to feel any kind of emotion or support towards marcus .
in the book, yaxley places pius thicknesse under the imperius curse, giving the death eaters control over the ministry. in the film, pius thicknesse is (presumably) not under the curse, but is a willing death eater or accomplice. however, he seems to be noticeably nervous before voldemort and appears to be threatened and afraid of nagini .

actually there was a special on amc that went at length to explain the real plot of bruce lee’s version of the game of death. it was a feature length documentary special dedicated to i guess the 20th anniversary of enter the dragon. what i can remember is the tower of death was the center piece of the netire movie, bruce lee’s character and five others are moving up this tower fighting against the different arts of kung fu until they reach the top where kareem abdule jabbar was the supreme fighter. i believe the starting plot was lee’s character had a sister that kidnapped or poison and he enters this tournment or game of death to rescue her. i agree with the crappy version that was pushed on us and i would have loved to have seen bruce’s vision of his movie rather than this shit storm we got settled with .
i think that was a great review. from around the age of 10 i sat watching game of death in total confusion. i didn’t realise until i was a little older that the film was completed after his death. so the use of chopped scenes from other movies plus what appeared to be a cardboard cut out of lee baffled me! so, it was great to watch something that identified the same stuff that made me scratch my head as a kid. also, the stuff about god2 was excellent. great memories and top to watch. well done !
a new york times article published in august of 1977 again summarizes the game, and quotes from driessen. however, here, the tone is different. titled
postscript: controversial
death race
game reaches' finish' line ,
the article presents itself as a close to a controversy that had made headlines for the better part of a year. exidy had ceased manufacture of death race earlier in 1977, and while the remaining machines might be problematic, the game seems less of a clear and present danger. the article does recount a scene from westwood electronic amusement center in los angeles, where the reporter saw a young girl score 6 hits on the machine while under the supervision of her father, who encouraged her by saying
you sure were chasing them .
the article closes by quoting a 13 - year - old fan of the game who responds to the suggestion the game may make him violent :
that' s stupid, and besides i don' t even know how to drive
( harvey, 1977). the issue is presented as somehow resolved, no longer a serious threat, even though children are still playing the offending game .
the advertisement featured the marquee picture from the game cabinet complete with muscle - car racing ghouls, and the first line describing the game is punctuated with tiny skull - and - crossbones graphics. the statement that the player will have to
ꞌget involvedꞌ in whatever way he wants
suggests a male audience, but more importantly, it suggests the game will provide an immersive, engrossing environment .
the film program is organized by christopher y. lew, mia locks, and aily nash .
when exidy first began manufacturing death race, the company had not considered it as one of their more important designs. according to paul jacobs, who served as executive vice president for exidy in the 1980s, the game was
originally viewed by the company as nothing more than an intermediary piece with a limited run
( brainard, 1983). the game had been performing well, but had not attracted much attention and did not seem slated to become a hit when an associated press reporter based in seattle wrote a story raising questions about how child - appropriate the game was. the story captured public interest and triggered coverage in a variety of other outlets. in defending the game, exidy rarely addresses the gameꞌs intended audience; instead, the company seeks to minimize the gamesꞌ violence and stresses that the publicity has been beneficial. jacobs repeated the belief that the publicity had been good for the company' s image, had driven sales of the game, and had raised the image of the video game industry :
in the book, each potter decoy carries a rucksack and a cage containing a stuffed owl. the decoys do not carry either of these in the film, and harry having his owl would serve as a give - away to the death eaters .
the cultural context into which exidy launched death race as an arcade upright in 1976 was shaped not only by the film that inspired the game, but also by a broader debate about media and amusement regulation and youth access in the united states. coin - op amusements had long been regarded with suspicion in the u. s. , and moral reformers had successfully influenced the regulation of film and comic books among other media. the comics code, in particular, resulted from efforts to curb the spread of materials deemed inappropriate for young readers. while u. s. video game manufacturers may have early thought of their machines as bar amusements intended for adult consumers, the appeal to and popularity among younger players fueled moral guardians anxieties around video games. arcade video games had no ratings system to indicate the intended or appropriate audience for particular machines. even the mpaa film ratings system was quite young at the time, and as roger ebert notes in his review of death race 2000, that rating system was not entirely effective at keeping younger viewers away from adult materials. in the absence of a clear definition of appropriate audience for death race, moral guardians seem to have assumed that the game’s accessibility to children meant it was intended for them .
when, the british company stainless games released carmageddon, in 1997, the public response bore striking similarities to the response to death race. carmageddon is a racing game with incorporated vehicular combat in which players gain extra time by damaging other vehicles, collecting bonuses, or striking pedestrians. like death race, the game featured vehicular violence that existed well outside established and accepted narratives of violence. in the united states, the entertainment software ratings board gave the game a rating of
m ,
the board' s second - most restrictive rating, intended to indicate that the game is suitable only for players who are at least 17 years of age. the game was censored in other countries, including the united kingdom, where censors insisted pedestrian victimsꞌ blood be changed from red to green to give credence to the claim that the victims were not human (poole, 2000). as in the case of death race, the controversy did not stifle sales and instead drove them. according to lead programmer and company co - founder patrick buckland :
we weren' t known, the brand wasn' t known … the game had to stand on its own two feet, and it might not have done that without the violence – though it did get fantastic reviews

the reason bruce wore the yellow suit, was because it had nothing to do with any matrial arts uniforms. bruce always said the best style was when there where no specific style. thats why kareem abdul jabbar was the hardest to beat in the orginal game of death, he didn’t have a specific style .
faking the dead: billy lo fakes his own death to mislead the syndicate. he later returns to kill them off one by one .
a dreadfully awful action film which title has nothing to do with the movies setting. a good fight at the end with snipes and daniels but the rest is awful, lots of bullets fired and not a single clip reloaded. snipes dose not attempt to act once in this film. gary daniels gives the only performance worth noticing to bad the film is a waste of his talent
that said, the rest of the film is pure crap. i just skip over the plot and go straight to the action here .
anybody who wants to know anything about what bruce’s original intentions were for game of death, please watch bruce lee: a warrior’s journey. it answers every question you ever had about god as well as includes unseen footage that makes it the most definitive version of god. after you see it, you will never watch the robert clouse version again .

roger ebert, writing for the chicago sun - times, awarded the film zero stars, and did not engage with the film much in his review, choosing instead to meditate on his experience seeing an audience full of children watch the movie with glee (ebert, 1975). negative critical response to the film was not universal. in the los angeles times, kevin thomas (1975) said the film
demonstrates that imagination can overcome the tightest budget .
in addition to praising several actorsꞌ performances, he dismissed criticisms of the film' s violence saying ,
there' s much slaughter in ꞌdeath race 2000, ꞌ but it' s presented so swiftly that the film avoids an unduly hypocritical exploitation of that which it means to condemn .
exidy introduces: th race 98 it' s indescribable. so different, it' s in a class by itself. death race 98 is what the player wants it to be: mobsters in the 30' s commandos in the 40' s dragsters in the 50' s hells angels in the 60' s street racers in the 70' s the first game to require the player to

once identified as a controversy, death race attracted high - profile media attention. even coverage that appeared as news, rather than editorial, helped perpetuate the controversy by legitimizing concerns and raising awareness of the issue. an article in the new york times in december of 1976 indicated the game had attracted the attention not only of local authorities, but of the national safety council. in the article, the author refers to the game' s stick figure targets as
symbolic pedestrians
and quotes extensively from the manager of the nsc' s research department, behavioral psychologist gerald driessen. driessen notes that nearly 9, 000 pedestrians were killed in the past year, presumably in driving accidents, and argues that video game violence is categorically different from television violence :

gremlins can only be struck when they are in the central
legitimate playing field
of the game. in two - player mode, players are competing against one another for the most kills. a player therefore might choose to deliberately crash into the other player to prevent him or her from striking a gremlin (exidy, n. d .). the game ranks players depending on the number of points they scored. these rankings – skeleton chaser for 1 - 3 points, bone cracker for 4 - 10 points, gremlin hunter for 11 - 20, and expert driver for scores greater than 21 – further the horror - inspired theme of the game (death race from exidy, 1976) .

one peculiar aspect of the controversy worth drawing attention to is the larger context of other coin - op video games available in 1976. while the lively used market accessible to route operators certainly expanded the number of games available for purchase at any given time, i would like to focus here on the new machines sold through distributors. even a cursory glance at listings of new machines makes clear that death race was not the only violent game on the market. atari' s offerings in 1976 included five games which could be categorized as violent: the rather self explanatory cops' n' robbers; the chase and crash crash' n' score; the wild west - themed gunfighting game outlaw; jetfighter, which featured simulated jet dogfighting; and tank 8, an 8 - player tank warfare game. chicago coin, of course, had their chase and crash, demolition derby, available. electra' s offerings included avenger, a scrolling shooter game in which the player piloted a fighter plane. digital offered a jet fighting game with the rather self - explanatory name air combat. meadows was manufacturing bombs away, in which players piloted bomber planes and sunk ships, and fun games had a seek - and - destroy aircraft game named biplane .

the compromised film’s pleasures largely come from its totally game cast. true blood breakout ryan kwanten, character actor steve zahn, and game of thrones mini stud peter dinklage plays three friends who love to act out their dungeons & dragons obsessions via larping (or live action role - play), but who unwittingly summon demons and monsters while doing so. specifically through dinklage, knights of badassdom has moments where it’s like a live - action mad magazine riff on game of thrones' current season' s
