I'm actually surprised on how this movie ended up flying below the radar (somewhat)... maybe it's because it got release in a quite busy season and that's always hard. But, hey, it's here now!

So, Jackie Chan and Jaden Smith. The re imagining of Karate Kid. It got release on Jun 11 ! Anyone actually got around to watch this one?!

We didn't forget, we just got all our caring about it done sometime in the last 26 years.

Now, now Fifth. In this post Last Airbender world we must remain ever vigilant lest the terrorists studios attempt another attack upon our childhoods.

Last Airbender isn't an attack on any of our childhoods.

Well, there's the Fairy Godparents one coming out, we could work with that.

Or the Dragonball movie. Yeah. This post-Dragonball-movie-world.

It was surprisingly better then expected. Even more racially accurate then the original.

Or so I've heard. I hadn't seen it and with my track record of ignoring most movie. I probably never will.

I've never seen the original either, but I quite liked this one, honestly.

I think it's because this was just Will Smith buying his kid a starring role in a movie.

Nepotism, in Hollywood?

Ludicrous!

Mr Miyagi could kick the shit out of Jackie Chan.

I don't think Pat Morita actually practiced any martial arts.

It was great. It was as good as if not better than the original. I just hope they don't try to pull the same stunt the original did and release 2 sequels and a "The Next..."

Jackie Chan never ages. Which is why I think that the Karate Kid is meant to be a Rush Hour prequel. (http://twitter.com/boburnham/status/16087590352)
