I just like the idea of dispelling the myth of many Asian martial arts. Many of them are more for exercise than actual fighting, more like "dances". And a dance doesn't work if your partner ain't willing.

Real fights are quick and brutal and dirty. Your elaborate kicks aren't going to help you when a guy with a knife basically "hugs" you while repeatedly stabbing you, not this "let's use a knife like a really short sword" shit you see in movies.

Most martial arts schools will be utterly useless in a real life "life or death" combat scenario. And this is what you always need to keep in mind when you see Hollywood martial arts.

Also speed doesn't work if you don't have the core strength (which very much depends on body weight) to back it all up.

Shit like this makes me embarrassed to be Chinese.
This is how I learned to avoid comments in any martial arts movie clip, buncha children who don't know shit argue about what's the "better" martial arts. I think there were moments where Bruce Lee himself made it clear that what he does in movies is completely separate from what goes on in real life.
This is basically the race version of Superman vs Goku: Buncha babies get angry when their favorite superhero doesn't win.
This is likely the first and only mainstream portrayal of Bruce Lee being something other than an untouchable god and you got idiots acting like this has been a 20 year defamation campaign.
