Jada Pinkett Smith To Be The New Karate Kid Or Something
Years ago, when the brains behind the Karate Kid movies decided it'd be a fine idea to just replace Ralph Macchio with Hilary Swank and see what happens, well that was the moment our childhood ended. Up until then our chief method for falling asleep at night was to lay there with our eyes closed and sweetly picture Daniel-san kicking Johnny in the teeth. After that we'd always picture him arm-whipping the bad guy from Okinawa to death, and after that we always pictured him literally biting the head off of whoever was the bad guy in Karate Kid III. That's not actually how the third one ended, likely due to faulty scriptwriting. But if you thought it was bad when swank donned Mr. Miagi's karate school patch, well it's about to get worse. Will Smith's kid - whatever his name is - is all set to star in a Karate Kid remake. We don't know, maybe we'll try falling asleep to the mental imagery of that little kid beating people up... but that seems like a pretty slippery slope if you catch our meaning.
