The song "You're the Best" was written for Rockey 2 but they didn't use it

Try to be best
'Cause you're only a man
And a man's gotta learn to take it

Try to believe
Though the going gets rough
That you gotta hang tough to make it

History repeats itself
Try and you'll succeed

Never doubt that you're the one
And you can have your dreams!

You're the best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you down
You're the Best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you down
You're the Best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

Fight 'til the end
Cause your life will depend
On the strength that you have inside you

Ah you gotta be proud
starin' out in the cloud
When the odds in the game defy you

Try your best to win them all
and one day time will tell
when you're the one that's standing there
you'll reach the final bell!

You're the best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you down
You're the Best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you down
You're the Best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ho-how-ho-own

INSPIRING GUITAR SOLO

You're the best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you down
You're the Best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you down
You're the Best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

Fight 'til you drop
never stop
can't give up
Til you reach the top (FIGHT!)
you're the best in town (FIGHT!)
Listen to that sound
A little bit of all you got
Can never bring you down

You're the best!
Around!
Nothing's gonna ever keep you down
You're the Best!
Around!

You know Ralph Machio is going to have some cheesy fucking cameo.

It is hard to believe that the actors in the karate kid series have more academy awards than the brat pack

Smith is far more appropriate as a kid than the 20-something Macchio was when they made the original.

Karate Kid A Classic?

It is not much different than dozens of other films with a similiar premise.

Yeah sure.. The overwhelming number of times the original movie has been quoted and mimicked makes it MUCH different than the others like it. It IS a classic. That movie launched additional karate studios all over the country.

Hollywood will produce remakes, it always has and always will but it is too soon for a movie as popular as KK was. You can get by with that a little more with comic book heroes but not with something like this. Even though the bad guys were over the top Ralph's portrayal as an awkward teen really sold it.

r's right, it was a modern quotable classic. Macchio and Mr. Miyagi made the story new.

I say this today as I order a t-shirt for my brother's birthday that says "Put him in a body bag! YEAH!"

What made it a classic was the molten lava chemistry between Pat Morita and Ralph Macchio. Oh and that crane in the sunset pose on a stump.

I am tired of having nothing special at all that I can have as my own stuff.

Transformers was OK, you all can have that. But then they give you GIJOE, Heman, Heathers (rumored) The Breakfast Club (rumored) now Karate Kid! What's next, fucking GOONIES?
Voltron? Smurfs? Punky fucking Brewster and Diffrent Strokes? You already got Knight Rider. And I know a bitch wanna remake A-TEAM.

I'm sorry but you cool teens/tweens of long ago didn't have to put up with this shit. Nobody's remade Captain Blood, Wizard of Oz, The Adventures of Robin Hood, Clockwork Orange with Will Smith, Casablanca or Grease. You all can share your old movies and claim them as your own and people had to respect that.

Now they are going to make this awesome new 21st century'd/hologrammed/FUCKIN BADASS new Karate Kid. Why the heck would I ever show my future spawn the OLD BORING Karate Kid when you all have your completely IMAX in 3D, CGI, market tested up the ass new Karate Kid?

Fuck you, moronic, good for nothing, creatively bankrupt, low down dirty, Hollywood mongrels with no respect for nothing but the good allmighty dollar. I hope that Will Smith's next picture is Norbit fucking Two and his career gets a serious kick in the ass and we see him fighting for scraps at the table like Dancing With the Stars.

Now dancing the Pasa Doble, "Will Smith and his partner Edyta Slavinska"

Fuck face.

Hollywood "remakes" old movies because it's a hell of a lot easier (and cheaper) than coming up with new ideas and scripts. And these "remakes" are aimed as much at those of us who grew up with the originals as they are at today's teens. It's the whole fucking "nostalgia" craze ... I guess the Hollywood fucktards think we "old fogeys" don't want to be challenged by anything new.

Esp when they remake a movie based on a book that was based on a movie, which was based on a true life story.

Wasn't he a teenager in the movie - like high school? And Ralph looked young then, not like Andrea on 90210 who looked her 30 years playing a 17 year old.

He was a teenager, not a little kid. And he was something like 26 years old.
