Rumour - Jackie Chan to pay Mr MiyagiThere's talk of a remake of the Karate kid (surely the original one isn't that old yet? )
Anyway, Jackie Chan is supposed to be in talks to play Mr Miyagi

Heard this on the radio today when Will Smith was on Radio One! He was talking about it.
|
April_Rose
|
Ah ok, so it's definitely happening then?
|
Em_J
|
I think so! Something to do with Will Smith's son?!
|
April_Rose
|
Yeah I think he's meant to be the kid in it!
It's so long since I saw the original I can hardly remember it....
|
Em_J
|
I was just about to say something until I realised I'm thinking of Gremlins!
|
April_Rose
|
I remember that better as I've seen seen it more often!
|
Em_J
|
Mr Miyagi's not in Gremlins is he? Where's the mogwai come from?! Anyway, all I remember of karate kid is that move he does, and him standing on that post by the sea.

No, can't remember what the old dude in Gremlins is called...might be the same actor though, I'll look it up! Mogwai is in gremlins, that's what the cute original one is called
I just vaguely remember the story of the Karate Kid, he's lonely or has no friends or something, and he learns karate from Mr Miyagi....I think....
|
Em_J
|
Oh yeah, wax on wax off, how could I forget that?! My sensei used to say that in karate all the time!!
|
April_Rose
|
Yeah, people still mimic that a lot!
just checked, it's not the same actor as in Gremlins
|
Em_J
|
Oh right!
I'll probably watch it when it comes out.

I'll probably wait for the DVD, as usual!
