I've been itching to see footage of Justin Lin's Finishing the Game since word got out that Lin was holding open casting calls for anyone with even a passing resemblance to the great Bruce Lee. Sure, you can argue that Lin has yet to live up to his initial promise but this was a return to smaller film making for him and the premise just made me howl. Finishing the Game is Lin's mockumentary about the search for a body double for Bruce Lee to complete the filming of Game of Death despite only twelve minutes of footage ever having been shot before Lee's untimely death. The idea of a mockumentary ripping into Bruce-sploitation just made me giggle like a little girl and early word on the film was all positive. Well, the trailer's here and it looks fantastic. Very, very nice.
It's official, Yahoo players are the worst pieces of crap on the internet. Go to youtube and check out the trailer there and some more clips.
The trailer's also up on Apple:
