Not to hijack this question but I already see the type of answers that are brewing and I am pressed to clarify a few things.

Bruce Lee's view on "realism" is not a realistic point of view, but one from someone who didn't acquire a real understanding of true martial arts.

If you were trained to stand in a certain way when you are confronted, then you went to the wrong school.

Stances are not for preparing for attacks. When you execute a posture in kata, it is teaching you a specific group of mechanisms that you apply to inflict pain, injury and other bad things your attacker didn't know you would be able to do to him.

Bruce viewed them as "fancy" because he did not know that they have meaning and application.

Bruce Lee changed the world from one where people who study martial arts would make sense of the things they are learning to one that makes people blind to "trueness" in martial arts.

So basically he ruined the perspective of the total beginner, to be able to see what is good. And you all fall for it. Shouldn't the fact that anyone who practices JKD has to supplement by learning 3 and 4 other arts so they can have a well balanced regimen be an indicator that his "philosophy" is incomplete?

How blind can people be?

Yeah it is pretty good

I like the commentary from the MMA fighters i think in some ways his style has influenced MMA.

I also agree with Bruce's philosophy on realism in martial arts when someone is about to hurt you don't have time to do fancy poses.

I took a Chinese martial art and it has benefit me but in opinion i beleive the Chinese dances and katas are a waste of time.

Where can I watch the documentary of bruce lee?

Stream?
