Anyone going to see the Karate Kid?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Saw the movie with my son yesterday. i just couldn't get into take jacket off, put jacket on for 15 minutes. If your a fan of the original karate kid you probably will not like the new 1 as much.

How can they call it Karate Kid when there will be absolutely no Karate in it? They say Kung Fu repeatedly in the trailer. Why not call it Kung Fu Kid and say its a "spiritual sequel" rather than a remake?

I totally agree with you and have thought the same thing myself...it's sad and not many people know the differences in martial arts :(
 
lol...

Jackie Chan is too young to play Mr. Miyagi.

How do you figure? Pat Morita was 52 when he played the part in the original, and Jackie Chan is 56!!!! :screwy:

if not Jackie then who? that's my question to you guys

but the guy in Iron Monkey is in it. I'm a fan of his,............ krichardson, how was his role? is he the leader of the kobra kai?
Good point with Jackie Chan and I never was a big fan of his slapstick style but he plays his role nicely......Which role did that actor play in the Iron Monkey? I'll have to pull that out and watch it now,great film...His role was about the same as the antagonist instructor in the previous films but more intense maybe.I thought it was interesting how his character kept referring to the Smith character as a thing though.

In Iron Monkey he played the Iron Monkey lol, the good guy and main character. It's a dope movie if you're into that stuff like me. I love a good Chinese, old skool setting, kung fu type movie. It's basically like a Robin Hood type of story. Dude's a doctor by day, working with and helping out a lot of poor people. By night he suits up as the Iron Monkey, steals from the rich, gives to the poor.

they even have a character play a young chinese legend, Wong Fe Hung in Iron Monkey. The actor is actually a girl. It fooled me, thought it was a boy until I looked it up.

anyways, the guy that plays Iron Monkey is dope, and from what you're saying about his role in Karate Kid, he'd be the one I'd be most excited about if or when I see the movie. "more intense" huh? interesting
 
that video was awesome :ROFL:
 
holy crop that WAS funny, didnt' bother to watch it til now.

"banzai m*ther bleeper" LOL

and dude is 48??? he looks good for pushing 50
