Weirdest Siri Glitches
The year is 1968. That guy Stanley Kubrick has released a new mind-bending film called 2001: A Space Odyssey. Quite a lot of people thought it was the most incoherent film ever made. But after all, Arthur C. Clarke said about the film, “If you understand '2001' completely, we failed. We wanted to raise far more questions than we answered."

Best Bruce Lee Movies
It is rumored that Bruce Lee was reincarnated as Chuck Norris's beard. Perhaps that's why Bruce Lee is so aptly nicknamed "The Little Phoenix." Or maybe it's because he's a kung-fu master. Yeah, that sounds about right. Getting his start as a child actor in Hong Kong, Bruce Lee eventually made his way to the United States and opened up several martial arts schools. He was devoted to the art of teaching and was successful. He gained recognition as an actor when he starred in The Green Hornet in 1966. From there, he and his family moved back to Hong Kong where he worked on a number of films. Bruce Lee set the standard as a kung-fu god which others strive to reach. Even after his death, Lee is known as the master of martial arts.
