    I'm so gutted that they filmed it and then cut it. I've been longing to see Bond do it and what's worse, Bruce Wayne as a kid in the Gotham tv series has done it...with an actual rolex and it's a brutal beat down too.

    I think it's highly unlikely that scene wasn't directly inspired by Bond doubleoego

    I can only come to the conlcusion that as Knuckle Dusters themself are banned in many countries that the sensors handing out the certificates has concerns it would be too violent or imitated, and that keeping the scene in would have upped the certification age thus cutting out a key demographic and potential viewer base.

    Really? Because in the link I posted above they have a child Bruce Wayne using his dad's Rolex as a knuckle duster on a fellow school student.

    Yeah along with Nunchakus they are banned in a lot of coutries for many years in British films you were not alllow to show Nunchakus
    , when we were kids we used to try get foreign version of Bruce Lee movies because the
    scenes were removed from British verisons.

    See here rules are different now Nunchakus scenes in a film now drive up the certificate to 12A in the UK

    Wow! That's really cool. I'm glad they left it in. I'll have to watch it again and look out for it.

    Hmmmm....I seem to recall the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie having nunchakus (Michaelangelo's weapon of choice) and that was a pg.
