Wax On, Wax Off

[Benji]

Will Smith's kid.

If this film doesn't have Mr Miyagi as well as a cameo from Ralph Macchio then we... well we probably won't notice the latter, but we better have Miyagi

[K]

um, Miyagi is dead dude.

[TGC]

Yes, they had better dig Pat Morita's corpse up for this film Benji. Good call sir

[Benji]

um, Miyagi is dead dude.

TAKE IT BACK

[TGC]

Dead for a few years.

[Benji]

Dead for a few years.

Well then, the time has come to allow Ralph Macchio to replace his sensei

For a minute there you had me thinking 'Holy crap, Todd from Scrubs was the Karate Kid?!'

I had to IMDb him

They'll make Ken Watanabe the next Miyagi.

HOLLYWOOD: "Um we need an actor from, you know, that Asia place. Some Chino/Japanese actor to play some Asian role. GET ME KEN WATANABE!

He's the male Zhang Ziyi (quick, we need someone to play the Geisha role in our upcoming movie Memoirs of a Geisha. I know, let's get Zhang Ziyi. Yeah, I know she's Chinese and the role is Japanese but who'll notice...)

I was furious at the time. I would have watched it if it had Chiaki Kuriyama in instead.

Also if you watch the film, folk are wearing their kimonos with the wrong side folded over the other. They are wearing it the way a kimono is worn by a dead body when it's laid out at the funeral. Stupid.

Is there really any good to come from this?

A 1980's style montage.

Hopefully? Dude, if Macchio isn't in it, Morita isn't in it, and that song isn't in it, then it holds no right to be called a remake.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Add the Cobra Gym and at least a passing reference to bonsai to that checklist.

I feel that it would be sacriligious if the song WAS in the remake though....

but that could be the fanboy in me talking...

God how I hope this idea falls through....

As much as I like Will Smiff, there's way too much of him. Between this and the rumor that he and Steven Spielberg want to remake Oldboy (yes, with Smiff as Oldboy and no, this doesn't sound like a good idea), I'm about ready to punch him in the face and welcome him to Earff. I wouldn't be surprised if this is how the discussion went:

"So, we're gonna remake Karate Kid? Who's gonna be the kid?"

"Um...Will Smith!"

"Isn't he a little young?"

"We'll get his kid. He's like a mini-Will Smith."

"Brilliant!"

So you can spell it right then?

[TheRyno]

No, the imaginary people in the dialogue spelled it wrong.

That was clearly symbolic of how dead their souls were.
