I still love Bruce… Like so many folks, it was through his work that I got into martial arts movies. That said, my admiration for Chiba has grown as I've gotten older. In Enter The Dragon, Bruce spawned the fraudulent notion that nunchucks are reliable weapons, and that old wives tale persist to this day
In The Street Fighter though, Sonny Chiba gifted us with highly practical life advice. When a dude and a chick try to screw you offer in a business deal, make Rocky Road out of the steaming, runny **** they've just taken on you… Launch him off a rooftop to a bone crunching death, then sell her sexy ass into prostitution for an eye-popping payout. You still get your cash, and also satisfaction that you may not have enjoyed had they actually kept up their end of the deal
