Really would love to see Johnny and Daniel join together and have Migel and Sam together all part of miagido karate. I see Jhonnys son Robby teaming up with Krease and Barns.....to still get back at his dad!

    As a 13 year old girl ,The Karate Kid was the movie I rewound and rewatched repeatedly. I had all three main movie posters on my wall. I carried a pic of Ralph in my school bag and kissed it for luck.
    For me, it was KK two that stole my heart. The little girl getting rescued from the bell tower was epic and the beautiful dance scene was breathtaking. Long Live The Karate Kid and RIP our beloved Pat Morita

    Fun fact: Toshiro Mifune, the famous Japanese actor known for his role as the samurai, Yojimbo, was offered the part of Mr. Miyagi, but he came across as too stoic and rigid during his readings. Pat Morita not only came with a more peaceful demeanor, but was able to pull off Miyagi's natural sense of humor as well.

    Pat Morita and Kurtwood Smith are great examples on why actors should be cast on ability and not only type cast by the role they played in previous films. Both actors roles in TKK and Robocop are iconic to this day and I can't imagine anyone else playing their roles, especially Kurtwood as Clarence Boddicker.

Pat Morita is seen via archive footage talking about working with Demura Sensei.

    The Pat Morita story is even more amazing because he was SPECIFICALLY targeted for not getting the part. He was interviewed by another channel (Emmy tv legends?) where he retells the story.

    One fact about "get him a body bag" he did not mention: It was never uttered during filming. After the film's production, and editing was complete, the Director Avildsen needed soundbites to fill time. In comes Rob Garrison (in a sound studio booth), and out came the iconic line. Avildsen told him fans may forget his character, but will remember that (iconic) line forever. He was right. May they both R.I.P. 💖

      Larry B. Fine He doesn't "just Google" the information. He paints a narrative that includes humor and personal anecdotes, along with some nice editing that is a far cry from channels that are all about the cash grab. I'm always entertained and have a good laugh.

      Larry B. Fine A third grader could get 86K subs, script, edit, and produce content that entertains thousands of viewers per video...really? What I think the real issue you have is that he puts ads on his videos; why shouldn't he get paid for his efforts? You don't like him, great don't watch. You are in the minority. I'm assuming you produce original content without ads? Oh, you don't produce any videos...

      Larry B. Fine Trolls are all the same: hide behind an avatar, say things they are too afraid to say in face to face interactions, and show absolutely zero initiative themselves. Trolls are critical, yet don't have the stones to put themselves out there for others to critique. And yes, I'm a big fan of positive and creative people, not nihilists who are afraid of the real world.

    I love this movie. Pat Morita, may he rest in peace, and Ralph Macchio were incredible. I also love the fact that some of this was filmed at Golf 'N' Stuff in my hometown, Downey, California though some say its Norwalk but it borders on Downey and Norwalk. One fact is that the water slide (which is now completely gone) was only open for the movie. The water slide was shut down due to a death years before so we never got to use it and it remained shut down for years before Golf 'N' Stuff revamped a lot of things and took down the slide altogether. It actually sucked cause a lot of us wanted to go on it but, nope.

    It baffles me that no one seems to point out that the Jackie Chan/Jayden Smith reboot of the movie was entirely wrong. Chan's character taught the boy Kung Fu, not Karate. Kung Fu is from China and Karate, of course, is Okinawan/Japanese. If they'd wanted to stay true to the original, they'd have had the child be taught Karate again, like in the original. Or at least name the film the correct "Kung Fu Kid".

      When the movie was presented to the Chinese government for approval to show in their theaters, the Chinese officials demanded the name be changed for that same reason. I agree with you 100% as calling the movie Karate Kid was being disrespectful to both martial arts systems. This was pointed out to the movie makers, but they only thumbed their noses.

    When I was in the Marines back in the mid 1990's, I got to meet one of the roll models for the Mr. Miyagi character. His name was Fuse Kise and he was still giving lessons on the base I was stationed on in Okinawa, Japan. I still kick myself to this day because I din't take lessons from him. That would have been awesome. Also, the scene where he catches flies with chopsticks was also done in Samurai 2 by Toshiro Mifune's character Myamoto Musashi.
