The Karate Kid

[Oakey]

For those of you who were thinking there just weren't enough remakes of popular Hollywood movies these days you'll be happy to learn that The Karate Kid, an 80s favourite of many, is currently being raped hard in the ass for your future viewing pleasure.

Keeping with all things 'equal opportunity', the main character is now a black kid (Will Smiths son to be exact) and instead of being called 'Daniel' he'll go by the ever traditional moniker 'Dre'. As you can expect (going from the trailer) the film will feature lots of Rap music. Perhaps there'll even be a simultaneously released Karate Kid theme song performed by Messrs Smith and Smith Jnr. Jackie Chan will play the role of Mr Miyagi. Except he's going to be called the rather catchy 'Mr Han'.

Bizarrely the film will be set in China (that's right, the home of Kung Fu) which creates some confusion as to why a Chinaman (Chan) is teaching a black kid (Smith Jnr) Japanese martial arts. Still, let's not let minor technicalities get in the way of a good money making opportunity.

Someone pointed out something on another forum that made me laugh.

In the original we see just how much of a bad ass Mr Miyagi is when he takes on the Cobra Kai lot, who are all in their late teens and considerably bigger than Miyagi.

The same scene is in the new trailer, except it's Chan taking on a bunch of ten year olds.

A middle aged man kicking the crap out of ten year olds doesn't have quite the same message as an elderly man beating up a bunch of late teens.

Didn't you see the trailer?

The film may well turn out to be craap but its immensely more embarrassing to admit you read the Stun.

In the world of the internet it's not uncommon for people to send other people links to things that may interest or amuse them. In future I shall endeavour to provide you with a 'proper' link for things I don't even know exist.

Sorry, pal, missed off the smiley due to Christmas Eve merriment. Only a light hearted comment. No offence intended.

I was only kidding.
