The Karate Kid

Ah...gotya!:giggle:

 

:dancingBaby:

 

Sorry REED, but I feel the opposite. I went in WANTING badly to like the movie.... but I just couldnt. It has NO rewatchability whatsoever to me.

 

what difference does this make? we're adults...who cares what kids think about a movie
i could watch the original Karate Kid now and enjoy it...it is that awesome that it appeals to kids and also adults


anyway, any kid of basic intelligence would understand that this is the stupidest way to end a movie ever ----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eMvzuxET7A :laugh11:
if your kid didn't laugh like hell and yell out "wtf?!?" when they saw that part then they're retarded

 

You showed vids of guys doing similar things in practice without an opponent. Not the same at all.

 

He lands on the foot he kicks the kid with. Shocker.

 

So U're BITCHING about the Way the Karate Kid Remake Ended, yet U're FINE w/the Original???...A FRAIL Kid w/ZERO Athletic Ability All of a Sudden Takes Out an Entire School of Black Belts, by Simply Learning to Wax a Man's Car, Sand his Deck & Paint his Fence/House???...

Yeah, OK...


REED:Lok:

 

Word. Maybe next we should whine about cartoons because they are unrealistic too

 

The original Karate Kid ended with Johnny walking face-first into Daniel's crane kick, after Daniel beats a bunch of more experienced opponents who run into Daniel aimlessly and with no defense. The 2nd one ended with Daniel doing some stupid swinging thing on Chozen (who was a bad-ass and awesome villain BTW) and then that stupid "honk" thing on his nose. The 3rd Karate Kid ended with Daniel suddenly getting a boost of confidence after a 10 second pep-talk from Mr. Miyagi and Barnes hesitating because Daniel was doing some form that resembled The Robot.

What was so bad about the ending in the 2010 Karate Kid, when taking the other ones into account? The endings are always ridiculous.

 

Just Think, Somewhere Out There is a COMPLETE BADASS Who PERFECTED Every Technique that Mr. Miyagi Taught Daniel San...A Car Waxing, Deck Sanding, Fence & House Painting BADASS...

What do U Call a Guy that Waxes Cars, Sands Decks & Paints Fences & Houses???...A MIXED MARTIAL ARTIST...

Two problems I had with this movie was that it was way to fuckin long. I thought I was watching Lawerence of Arabia for a second. It should have been at least 30 minutes less.

Also, the love interests scenes were silly. He looked and was actually alittle to young to be taken seriously when it came to a love interest. They should have strictly made them just friends, and avoided that silly kiss, and dance off scene.

 

I agree on Chozen: BADASS villain. In fact...I think I may have to purchase that film. Chozen>>Johnny. No way Daniel could have even been competitive with Chozen let alone beaten him. No amount of "drum technique" could have beaten Chozen.

I just don't see myself watching KK 2010! Some young punk with corn rows??? No thanks. Will Smith should have cut his son's hair for that role.

 

It Actually HELPED in Making Jaden a "Fish Out of Water"...Black Kid in Asia, Breakdancing, Rocking Cornrows...Besides That, Jaden have Probably Looked even YOUNGER w/Out Them...



REED:dancingBaby:

 

REED's Rewatched it Tons of Times...1 Aspect of the 2 Flicks that's Going UNspoken is the Superior CHOREOGRAPHY in the Remake...The Training Sequences in the Remake SHIT on those from the Original...Jaden is Much More FLUID & ATHLETIC than even a Young Adult Ralph Macchio was...

To Each his Own, but REED Came Away IMPRESSED by the Little Motherfucker...


REED:dancingBaby:

 

It wasnt Jayden. It was the movie. He does have a ton of charisma, and he's good looking (obviously coming from two good looking parents), and he has the Smith name.... so he's destined to be a mega star one day.

 

it's better to learn by waxing a guys car than from picking a coat up off the floor :dunno:

 

How do U Figure???...On the Surface, BOTH Seem to B Pretty SILLY Ways of Being Introduced to Martial Arts...Again, BOTH Seem Silly...Yet U're ONLY BITCHING about the Karate Kid Remake in this Thread, when the Original was just as IMPLAUSIBLE @ Times...



REED:hammert:

 

The Original Daniel Laruso didn't need gymnastics...shiiiiiiiit! He had the Magical Mr Miyagi of "Miyagi-Do Karate"!! :bears:

 

agREED...

They Gave him the Gymnastics Background, he had the Fluidity of Being a Breakdancer & he Also Spoke of Being Athletic, which was ILLUSTRATED During the Training Sequences...Jaden Simply Brought MORE to the Fray than Ralph Macchio Did...& Though Probably 10-15 Years YOUNGER than Ralph Macchio was During the Original, Jaden was Actually MORE BELIEVABLE as a Martial Artist (Despite the Ridiculous Reverse Flip Kick @ the Very End)...

The Training Sequences & Fight Scenes of the Remake SHIT on those of the Original...Due to Jackie Chan, No Doubt...


REED:cheer:

 

I believe that person is called a Mexican.
