Braithwaite: Hello Mr. Lee. My name's Braithwaite. Lee: Hello Mr. Braithwaite.
Enter the Dragon (1973), Robert Clouse. October 7, 9pm. View count: 1.5?
This movie is obviously a classic, but it's a classic for containing Bruce Lee, not for actually being a good movie. Fortunately, it doesn't really matter. IMDB trivia page sez: "The movie was originally filmed without sound. All of the dialogue and effects were dubbed in later during post-production." Even this (it's pret-ty obvious) is okay, because, you know, it's a Bruce Lee movie. He pretty much does what he wants throughout, being the chaotic good force and walking anatomy lesson that he is, and it's fine. The plot doesn't really hang together, and the characters are collections of arbitrary characteristics, but the fighting is great.
(The hall of mirrors sequence wasn't really worth the effort that was clearly put into it, but that's about it.)

bull-SHIT, Mr. Han Man!
"These are just lost drunken men who don't know where they are and who don't care."
"Where are we?"
"I don't care."
