Original Last Dragon Movie Trailer
What’s your Last Dragon story?
For me my memories start before I even watched the film. I can still remember the first time I saw Bruce Leroy doing slow motion kung fu in the trailer. It came out in 1985 but I didn’t see it until probably a year later. I had to anxiously wait for the VHS to come out because it didn’t come to theaters in the small Canadian town where I grew up. Little 10 year old me was so excited when I saw that tape in the video store. Once I got the tape home I wore it out and didn’t want to give it back! Later I even hooked up 2 VCRs so I could make my own copy since it was near impossible to buy at the time.

My dad and I had to sneak in while we bought tickets to another movie to watch “The Last Dragon”. They said they were sold out, but we got to watch it. Also El Debarge – Rythem of the night was and still is one of my favorite songs.
This movie and only this movie is my favorite. And will be for the rest of eternity. The ending scene is my dream wedding. ..
I’m so excited!!! I fell in love w/this movie the first time I saw it. I just watched it 2 nights ago w/my 2yr old. Bruce Leroy is the man and Sho Nuff was an awesome bad guy!! I hope my schedule allows me to attend!!
One of the baddest movies of all time. I always hoped there would’ve been a part 2. RIP to Julius Carr aka: Sho Nuff!!!
