It was still gay.

Putting anyone as captain of the Flagship ship of any fleet in their early 20's just out of any academy is just bad writting.

I loved the new Star Trek movie too. The only problem I had with that movie was the science of it. What the **** is "Red Matter". It was like watching Independence Day. Mac can't function with 90% of the software out there, but somehow can cripple an advanced technology from outerspace.

Thinking about this brings up several thoughts....

1) What the hell is Ralph Macchio doing these days? Him and his child bearing hips.

2) I'm not a Will Smith fan at all - but i respect his business sense, and the mini empire he's creating here with the producing and positioning his son into stardom too. To parlay a corny ass rap career into this - major props.

3) The Original - what a cool soundtrack - Cruel Summer by the Bangles - ah the memories.

4) The sequels sucked eggs - however, it spawned a young Hilary Swank.

Ralph actually has a 14 year old son. His name is Daniel. I **** you not.

Karate.. ugh. Kung Fu is sooo much better. Although I find it weird they are calling it Karate Kid.

TheReverend · 05-01-2010, 09:29 PM

Anyone else mad the new karate kid is black?

In b4 "that's racist"

Sorry, but it changes the brand. It'd be like if Marlon Wayans had played Duke in GI Joe (not that the guy they picked was any better... angry face insert here), or Hasselhof starring in a remake of Shaft, or a black Dread Pirate Roberts in a Princess Bride remake, or if they made Optimus Prime a jet.

It's on par with the "Wtf?" I'm still getting forced down my throat that Hollywood Nick Fury is Sam Jackson. Someone like Mel Gibson would've been perfect... just let him throw in an obscure Jew hating reference and he totally would've been on board.

TheReverend · 05-01-2010, 09:30 PM

I can say one thing... If Peter Cetera gets replaced on the soundtrack by some hip-hop "artist", I'm gonna flip my **** like you wouldn't believe.

jhat01 · 05-01-2010, 09:48 PM

"The Glory of Love"

Classic

sirhcyennek81 · 05-01-2010, 09:53 PM

I am now old enough to see movies made when I was a child into remakes in my adulthood...

Nightmare on Elm Street...Ninja Turtles...Batman...Superman...and now Karate Kid?

I call bull**** shenanigans. The Karate Kid needs to be a 30 year old ralph machio, not the progeny of big will and jada pinkett smith.

I would watch Karate Kid Part III over this new Karate Kind stuff!

Which isn't saying very much at all.

People would die.

This is such a manly song for our tough hero. Chuck would be proud. Who would win a fight between Peter Cetera and Ralph Macchio in real life?

Just think if their was an officer leaving for a mission aboard a USN flagship who had to stop and kiss the Comm officer on the bridge before he left? How professional is that?

It was Lame.

Not when it comes to original series ST.

I didn't care that they f'ed up Star Wars with the last 3 movies.

What did you think of the new Halloween movies? I saw the new Halloween had some good ideas for the 78 version.

How so? If the 20 year old is the only one with the talent and instinct to solve the crisis that apparently the rest of the fleet can't.......why shouldn't he be a Captain? If his IQ is that much better than everyone else is, it's not really relevant that he's 20 something.

they were good, not great and not groundbreaking, but most reviews gave it 1 or 0 stars. people get too caught up in "omg its not as good as the old one, thus it sucks!" just watch the movie without thinking about it too much and try to enjoy it instead of trying to figure out if its better or worse than the old one.

Also, it's a science FICTION movie that takes place thousands of years in the future with space ships and alien cultures that all speak English, but yeah, that one plot point seemed just too unrealisitc and ruined the whole thing... gotcha.
