Some things are best left in the grave and revisited here and there.

sigh. so stupid.

11/11/2008 3:03:03 PM

who does he think he is? Will obama?

11/11/2008 3:19:24 PM

maybe if the kid isnt a little scrawny wimp like the old kid, and he learns MMA shit from BJ Penn it wont suck

11/11/2008 3:22:54 PM

This is so ridiculous.

Just because this kid wants to be in a classic story doesn't mean his dad needs to sell out and do this.

I mean did this kid just see "Never Back Down"? It was basically a remake of the Karate Kid modernized a bit and it was decent enough.

Ralph Macchio >>> Will Smith's offspring.

brilliant idea.

simply brilliant.

11/11/2008 3:37:36 PM

Will Smith's kid is too young. He'll be like 10 years old when this goes into production. What, is he gonna fight the bully that is stealing his lunch money?

On a related note this little punk is slated to become the most spoiled kid in history.

....

why not at this point

11/11/2008 4:31:21 PM

What the fuck man? Why does Hollywood insist on being a bunch of uncreative assholes and regurgitate old classics and fuck them up?

11/11/2008 4:34:08 PM

do we really need to answer that

11/11/2008 7:10:12 PM

so let's see.....in recent weeks I've learned that Hollywood is going to fuck up Footloose and now Karate Kid.... lovely. Seriously. Hollywood....IF YOU CAN'T COME UP WITH NEW SHIT THEN MAYBE IT'S A FUCKNG SIGN

^maybe you should talk to your friends in person, i don't think they read tww.

I'm walls1441 and i approved this message.

No.

11/11/2008 8:16:12 PM

Yeah....no one listens to me. And most people know going in that it's a bad idea...but since their not the one bankrolling it...they roll their eyes. Believe me, I've tried. Unfortunately there are too many retards in this country because well written original shows get canceled while the crap gets picked up.

11/11/2008 8:22:22 PM

no elizabeth shue = no karate kid.

i love karate kid elizabeth shue.

11/11/2008 8:37:31 PM

i hate we get shows like knight rider remake and sarah connor when there are great shows like jericho, journeyman, firefly, etc that get canceled.

11/11/2008 8:38:50 PM

I didn't know Footloose was being remade...screw Zack Efron, he's no Kevin Bacon.

I swear if they announce they're remaking "The Goonies" or "Stand By Me" I'll probably fly to Hollywood and kick someone in the balls/ovaries.

11/11/2008 8:56:55 PM

oh brother

11/11/2008 9:12:41 PM

Next they'll want Hilary Swank to this next Karate Kid.

11/11/2008 11:55:43 PM

If they remake Stand by Me and The Outsiders, motherfuckers are sure to die.

Just be happy that they haven't remade Back to the Future or the Goonies.

Yet.

(btw does this mean that we are gonna get some awesome new training montage music? YOU'RE THE BEST... AROOOOOOUND!)

^^^Yes, I rank Stand By Me right up there with The Goonies, and those 2 movies should be left alone.

And the cast for The Outsiders(great book and great movie) was so strong, that I just can't see them remaking that. The star power in that movie alone is remarkable.
