"KARATE KID" Remake: Will it ever end?????

In November it was confirmed that Will Smith’s son Jaden Smith is set to start in the remake of the 80s Clasc "THE KARATE KID".

This film is to be set in Beijing holding on to "elements" from the original film.To make it worst, Entertainment weekly reports that Jackie Chan is set to play Mr. Miyagi.

Remember, Pat Morita was nominated for an academy award for his role as Mr. Miyagi in the original film.

This is like a bad April Fools joke only the jokes on us, they are actually making this movie. Source: Slashfilm

aawww man...

really?

Are there no new ideas in Hollywood anymore?

I've come to the concluon that if a good movie has been made, it will likely be remade (and the remake will likely suck compared to the original). Actually I've known this for quite some time, I've just recently brought myself to accept it.

This sucks....I love the Karate Kid....no need to remake it. And do we really need Will Smith's son in movies now??? Theres thousands of talented kid actors out there who dont have multi millionaire parents.

I'm seriously condering only watching foreign films from now on.

This one's for you Hollywood!

Clint Eastwood already remade Karate Kid.

It's called Gran Torino, and it's the complete oppote of suck.
