funny though neither of the movies actually picture the ways of karate, though they where a great hit back then and even today especially as a kitch flash back and the likes that we all actually enjoy.
One of the reasons I never went to watch the new karate kid movie was mostly because of Jackie Chan and the karate being kung fu now (wing chun, wushu etc.) they should maybe had picked a more iconic character for the role and actually making it more authentic for once.. but well Hollywood doesn't agree.
