Jaden is destined to be the next Pauly Shore and just as talented.

I wasn't a fan of Karate Kid. But I agree that if a remake was to be made, it should keep with Japanese culture.

I also think Jackie'n'Jaden would be a good pairing. I like Jackie Chan movies. They're so hilariously bad in spots, like it's done on purpose. Loved how Rumble in the Bronx had the BC mountains for scenery. Too funny!

oddly enough, i sat through a karate kid marathon on sunday.
it cannot be remade. they can make a NEW one, but jackie is not a karate master. i don't think.
and i think ent is right, jaden is too young. and i think it's too soon after morita's death. i kept looking at his face wondering about all his demons, and what a cool mentor miyagi was.

also, chuck norris made a movie with that poor kid from sea lab (can't remember his name, real cute kid that committed suicide a couple of years ago), another martial arts/buddy pic, and it was cute.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.

Did I mention, uh, NO!!!!!!

Jackie Chan is CHINESE.

Mr. Miyagi is JAPANESE...remember KK2? Osaka, the typhoon, little drum thing? Pretty important to the plot.

HUGE cultural difference.

Princess Buttercup...true dat.

sorry I meant to say remake not sequel.

2009-01-14T13:42:00.000-08:00

kimpim: I have the DVD at home. I was a kid when it came out and still love to crack up over it with my friends. I also have "Teen Wolf" and "North Shore" (the original movie not that TV show). What can I say? I miss the days when malcontent teens from the local dojo facing off with the scrawny underdog at the All Valley Tournament was considered movie plot material.

Totally understand why you would not want to watch the sequel with me though!

Princess: great memory! You're post was like a movie trailer. Although I wouldn't want to be seated next to you at the re-make.

Ent: A 'Dojo' can't go all crazy on someone. Dojo is simply a room/temple. My husband thinks he's Bruce Lee friday nights at the gym along with a dozen other bald/middle aged men. I've picked up a few tidbits along the way.

2009-01-14T13:17:00.000-08:00

I like Jackie Chan movies (except the Tuxedo) and I'd probably see it with my kids. I'm more of a Jet Li fan
though he would be a bad Mr. Miyagi. My kids liked that movie they did together.

I watched Jaden on Ellen a few weeks ago...the kid's got charisma.

"Pat Morita wasn't kicking much ass"???!!! Um yeah...

2009-01-14T13:10:00.000-08:00

"Pat Morita wasn't kicking much ass"???!!! Um yeah you were not kidding about never being a big fan because any fan would clearly remember the Cobra Kai getting it handed to them by Mr. Miyagi when he interrupts them ganging up on Daniel San...the way he crept over that chain link fence and attacked...a panther could not have been more graceful...even a ninja would be hard pressed to execute that level of stealth.

The crane technique? Totally awesome move courtesy of who? Chan? – no, Miyagi? - yes!

After chopping of the tops of THREE beer bottles - Daniel San: “How did you do that? How did you do that?” Miyagi: “Don't know. First time.”!!! The FIRST time Enty – that is skill!

Face it Miyagi kicks total ass – he is just more understated than Chan. In other words, he kicks ass old school.

and let's face it, no one can touch the soundtrack to the first movie. "Cruel Summer" and "You're the Best"? Solid gold.

2009-01-14T13:03:00.000-08:00

I can barely remember when the original Karate Kid came out, but I think that I was a kid. I do remember that it wasn't good enough for a remake or maybe now I'm just too damn old to care.

Perhaps it will attract children with Jaden in it and adults with Jackie's name on the bill.

2009-01-14T12:42:00.000-08:00

May I please think of it as "Little Shanghai Knights" instead of "Little Rush Hour?" Thanks!

Jackie/Jaden sounds like a freakin' brilliant combo to me, no matter what the movie's about. Either one of them just about automatically puts a smile on my face.

2009-01-14T12:30:00.000-08:00

"do you think that a Karate Kid remake sounds better if it has Jackie Chan in it?"

No.

2009-01-14T12:22:00.000-08:00

I think Jackie and Jaden should fall in love with each other!

Then they can call it Kung-Fu-Fags

or The Karate Kid Abuser

2009-01-14T12:11:00.000-08:00

It's a nice idea--though I would expect that both he and the kid would have to kick ass, and with similar skill. Also, it might have to be pretty cartoony to avoid accusations of darkness and violence.

2009-01-14T12:08:00.000-08:00

I really would prefer Sonny Chiba. I just don't see Jackie Chan as the "curmudgeonly" old master.
