I have a problem with a scene in the Karate Kid where Daniel and Ally are on the beach with their friends listening to music and playing soccer.  My problem is just after Daniel (he isn't Danielsan at this stage) has finished juggling the ball, Ally takes it and says something like "I'll show you something" and then proceeds to boot the ball in the opposite direction a long way, as if to say 'fetch that you loser'.  I have always found this scene perplexing, does this ring true with anyone else.

You read way to much into things ;D

These threads will eclipse the Decadeology threads for overall inanity fairly soon.

You should of see some of the topics I wanted to raise......"Why, in 'The Empire Strikes Back' after the Hoth battle, does Luke just walk to his X-Wing and take off, untrammelled, and yet the Millenium Falcon, which flies past him, is pursued by half the Imperial Fleet", or "What was the reason the late George Harrison released two different video clips for the song 'Got my Mind Set on You'" or "Is it just me or is the world a far crappier place since the death of Communism"....I could go on and on.  But I won't , or maybe I will.

   Oh dude..!

   You must visit the RebelScum: Classic Trilogy forums.  I hang out there quite a bit when I'm not here...groove ;) on...

  And to the topic - I need to watch Karate Kid again.  It's been awhile...

   

;D I'm on Rebelscum, but I hang out in the collecting forums. Well not a lot now but I have been known to.

Yeah, when I first saw it back in '84, I was like, get yer own ball, stupid west-coast bish!  And the last time I saw it, I was like, yer dumbass brother can't act, bish!  "Allisoooonn....."








:D

Maybe the Karate Kid anomaly is like the Footloose anomaly.  If Ariel is on Ren's side, why does she "volunteer" to issue the challenge for playing chicken on the tractors with the redneck kid?  Maybe both Ali and Ariel are giving a nudge to a reluctant hero.  Could be?

Speaking of Footloose, if Ren moves to bible-thumping, no dancing Podunk, Illinoise, why oh why praytell does the high school have a male gymnastics program?  OK, maybe you could say gymnastics is not a sexual overture like dancing, but wouldn't such a toootal hick town where girls are girls and men are men consider male gymnistics a bit, you know, f@ggy?

Footloose was filmed in a little town south of Salt Lake, that isn't too far off from the town in the movie.  And I think it's safe to assume that Male Gymnastics would be about as welcome in that area as Madonna.  ::)

BTW, I like your threads dcs84.  Diversity makes the world go 'round...

"Slaughter House Five, that's a classic!"
"Where is it a classic?"
"It may be a classic where YOU come frm!"
"Tom Sawyer's a classic."

I wonder if there will ever be a 5th installment of the Karate Kid?  Knowing Hollywood, it's probably in the works

Only Pat Morita can play Miyagi, and he's no longer with us  :\'(
