Karate Kid remake?

[King Imp]

Time to ruin another classic. :nono:

Will Smith to remake The Karate Kid (http://people.monstersandcritics.com/news/article_1361383.php/Will_Smiths_Karate_Kid)

[drusilla]

oh boy

[Axem Red]

Unless Jimmy Norton takes the Miyagi role this film will bomb.

[cupcakelove]

I think you're misusing the words 'ruin', and 'classic'.

[Gmann]

This movie would gain some credibility if William Zabka played Kreese and taught the Cobra Kai's.



Other than that....WHY???!!!???!!??

Can't they just leave old movies alone ???

WHAT THE FUCK ??

[King Imp]

I think you're misusing the words 'ruin', and 'classic'.

To each his own.


This movie would gain some credibility if William Zabka played Kreese and taught the Cobra Kai's.

Macchio as Miyagi and Zabka as Kreese. I would be down with that. :smile:

[King Hippos Bandaid]

great while you are at it lets remake Weekend at Bernies

:king:

[StupidGirlllll]

And I believe that his son is going to play the part of the Karate Kid.. I never saw the original movie so I have no desire to see this 1. I hated them in that movie they did together.

[Gmann]

YOU NEVER SAW THE KARATE KID ??


You're missing out on a classic gem of cinema!

[StupidGirlllll]

No never I was never into Ralph Machio he creeped me out.

[pittphantoms]

This actually has me upset...

If they remake Iron Eagle, I am going to give up completely on Hollywood.

[Bill From Yorktown]

ok as long as he does a remake of "Sweep the Leg"

ok kidding.

[JesterOfSadness]

If the movie tanks, I wonder if he'll blame his son for bad acting.

[drusilla]

[King Imp]

Nah, Will Smith will probably have his wife Jada do it since she has a band of her own.

[lleeder]

great while you are at it lets remake Weekend at Bernies

:king:

I tried to at Mikeyboys birthday party.

[Section 8]

A nine-year old kid playing a high schooler?!?!?

Why do I have a feeling that it's going to be more of an 'inspired by' and using the same title...

Although I do like the idea of Jackie Chan as Miyagi.

[PapaBear]

Won't having a nine year old play the lead ruin the whole "love interest" angle? Just write a fucking movie, Will. Enough with the remakes!

[midwestjeff]

Won't having a nine year old play the lead ruin the whole "love interest" angle? Just write a fucking movie, Will. Enough with the remakes!

Agreed. And i would like to add, TOO SOON!
Might as well remake Men in Black.

[lleeder]

Won't having a nine year old play the lead ruin the whole "love interest" angle? Just write a fucking movie, Will. Enough with the remakes!

I disagree. Nine year olds get alot more pussy nowadays.

[Section 8]

Yeah, but most of it is from their teachers...

What?

[Gmann]

Jaden Smith set for 'Karate Kid' redo
Columbia taps Chris Murphy to write script
By MICHAEL FLEMING
Columbia Pictures is back in the dojo with a new version of the 1984 hit "The Karate Kid," which has been refashioned as a star vehicle for Jaden Smith.

The film will be produced by Jerry Weintraub (who launched the original franchise) and Overbrook Entertainment's James Lassiter, Will Smith and Ken Stovitz. Will Smith, who is the 10-year-old actor's father, co-starred alongside Jaden in his feature debut, "The Pursuit of Happyness," which Overbrook and Escape Artists produced for Columbia.

The script is being written by Chris Murphy, and the film will shoot next year in Beijing and other cities. While the new film will be set in that exotic locale, it will borrow elements of the original plot, wherein a bullied youth learns to stand up for himself with the help of an eccentric mentor.

China Film Group Corp. will co-produce in China.

The younger Smith, who next stars in "The Day the Earth Stood Still," is a martial arts practitioner.

Columbia presidents Doug Belgrad and Matt Tolmach said they had been trying to find a way to bring back the series, which began with three films that featured Ralph Macchio and Pat Morita. A subsequent film launched the career of Hilary Swank.


So there it is. Let's rape and rape and rape for the sake of raping films.

I will continue to hate Will Smith, but I will keep an open mind that one day his son will be a decent actor that isn't in his douche father's shadow.

Anyone else have any guess what the tagline will be?

I bet: The Karate Kid: Kickin' Up in Heeerya!

[JPMNICK]

they should call it the MMA kid just to bring it into this millennium

[Don Stugots]

Stupid stupid stupid.

[fezident]

"FINISH HIM!"


Fuckin' retarded.

[NYHCmikeX]

i cant wait for the will smith remix

"i am a man who will fight, for your honor...uh what yeah..."

"You the best...uh uh uh around...uh...nothin gon eva keep ya down kid."

[fezident]

Why not just get Pat Morita to play Mr. Myagi again? That is... ya know... if he's not dead.

[Contra]

Yeah he's dead

[Contra]

Didn't they try this "remake in exotic location" idea with Dirty Dancing: Havanna Nights? That turned out well

[fezident]

Yeah he's dead

Bummer.


I'm pretty sure these guys are available though.

http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:Er9zvcSzV4PzMM:http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/070409/karate_l.jpg

Is it just me, or is this picture a little creepy?

[Ritalin]

Will Smith is a douchebag.

There, I said it.

[jennysmurf]

Will Smith is a douchebag.

There, I said it.

Did it make you feel better to say it? Let it all out. There are no judgements here--well, not many anyway.

[chubbyknuckles]

Will Smith is a douchebag.

There, I said it.

It's been said for years. But I wouldn't worry about it, if Will Smith gets the script to the Barack Obama bio-flick, he'll put this film on the back burner.


White people are so afraid......
