Well after seeing this, I'm all confused. First of all, the additional scenes are great but it would change the storyline completely if they're incorporated into the movie. The whole bits about "The game is over" is new to me.
Second, the music? I have the original soundtrack to John Barry's music to Game of Death. The soundtrack and the movie as I remembered it didn't sound like those with the clips. However, I did hear near the end of the fight that did indeed incorporate John Barry's theme. So did they redo the soundtrack plugging in John Barry's theme occasionally. I didn't like most of the disco feel to it while Bruce was fighting with Karem.
Of course we never know how Bruce Lee would have wanted to finish this movie. In my opinion, the clips are more true to his vision. Game of Death is a good movie if you skip the rest of the fake Bruce Lee scenes. They were just horrible! How about if someone one day go back and use CGI to fix some of those ridiculous scenes. Ouch, the worst one was that paper cutout of Bruce Lee placed over the body of the double. That part got to be the worst special effect in film history!
