Second Impressive Trailer for the 'Karate Kid' Remake

I think everybody was a little surprised that the first trailer for The Karate Kid was actually pretty good. Maybe the holiday spirit or something, but the Jaden Smith/Jackie Chan flick looked like a pretty solid summer family movie, he said swallowing his pride. Here's round two. There are a lot of things we've already seen, but we get a few new glimpses, including the young antagonist. He looks like a dead ringer for a young Bolo Yeung. Remember him as the guy in Bloodsport who was quite obviously on steriods? He was also great and menacing in Enter the Dragon. I have to say, yet again, that this trailer is above sea level. Kids are absolutely going to eat this up, and it doesn't appear to be an arduous trip to the theater for the parents. Not saying it's going to be great - and remember, it's just a trailer - but it's safe to say I expected much, much less. Out of both trailers, in fact.

Jacket on... Jacket off.

Like the trailer, hate the name. It's Kung Fu, not Karate!

[Get The Big Picture]

In China, I think they're going to call it that. But you know how stupid we Americans are - we might not know it's the same movie unless they keep the name...

Does Bolo appear as the grandfather of that kid you mentioned?

[ummm]

Can anyone explain to me why I want to see this movie?

Ummm....I want to see it too. My wife just disowned me.
