As crazy as your post sounds, it wouldnt surprise me if there was some lame CGI or special effects.
What concerns me most, besides the obvious Billy Zabka debacle, is the impending soundtrack.
Have they decided whether to re-use classics like "Cruel Summer" from Bananarama?
"You're the best," and the All-Valley Karate tournament montage was unquestionably the hallmark of that movie. You could argue that actually was the 3 or 4 minutes of film that tied all 80s cinema together into one great whole. What are they going to do for the remake?
highlights of this montage are
1. Daniel fighting Lamar Latrell at :52
2. Fat, out of shape dude at 1:24
3. And Larusso fighting Dutch at 2:28. Dutch, btw is the baddest mo-fo of all the Cobra Kai and has the most wicked kick at 2:46. That dude is so limber! How does he move his head like that? Also, for some reason, Dutch scores one point, then Daniel scores one point, but Daniel wins.
