Seems that a village in south China's going to make a theme park for Bruce, CCTV is going to do a 40 part TV show about him, his brother and a former student are about to make movies about him and David Henry Hwang is about to make Bruce Lee: The Musical on Broadway.

Wow.

    whoa what's with the sudden creation of all this?! in any case that is very cool and long overdue. although the musical sounds a bit whacky so of course i'll have to see that :)

      with the tepid relationship between superpowers, i'm guessing it's because bruce lee is one of the few cultural exports that the mainstream western world has really embraced...
