This is the most horrible, terrifying news of the past year. I am not joking. Pardon my french, but there are certain movies with which you just don't eff around.

One of them is Zapped! with a young Scott Baio
One of them is Midnight Madness with a young Michael J Fox.
And the other one is The Karate Kid....which introduced the world to Elisabeth Shue and made it possible for her to later expose her breasts in Palmetto.

If Billy Zabka were dead, he would be rolling over in his grave.

Strike First, Strike Hard, No Mercy, Sir!

Is nothing sacred?

This comes on the heels of the Obama election. Are you really surprised?

Well, Ralph Macchio isn't Ralph Sampson....

The kid will be 11 during filming. Weak! Ralph was like 25 years old playing a 15/16 year old.

I hope they do it up Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon style. Lots of flying through the air and such.

This is blasphemous. That Hillary Swank put the first dent in the empire, this will surely bring it crumbling down.

Does Will Smith get to land a spaceship in it, or does he fly like a superhero drunk and disorderly?

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.

The fighter who breaks his leg is named Ron Thomas, he swam on the same swim team as I. I could tell you a few stories about his mother. I remember him being interviewed about his possible increased role in the sequel. We laughed when it didn't pan out.

"Sweep the leg"

"But sensei, I'll be disqualified!"
