Film Karate Kid Trailer, Ya'll!

Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 3:11 PM

Here's the new trailer for the Karate Kid remake, starring Jaden "My dad is Scientologist Will Smith" Smith, and Jackie "I'm actually going to try and act in this one" Chan. Three reasons why I choose to already hate it: 1) "Sweep the leg, Johnny!" is not uttered a single time in the trailer. 2) Umm... hello? Where's my boner inducing Elisabeth Shue cameo? And 3) Jackie forces the kid to repeatedly put on and take off his jacket instead of waxing his cars? No wonder kids are so goddamn lazy these days! That's BULL SHIT!! I'M ANDY ROONEY!!

I wonder how much of their financing came from the Chinese government trying to show that their Kung Fu is better than Japanese Karate.

was "Kung Fu Kid" not as catchy? Also, remember this film. This will be among the first in a line of long movies to come that ratchet up the American xenophobia of China (remember the Japanophobia of the 80s and 90s?)
