Avildsen shot hours of footage of the tournament from multiple angles

Chronology

Decades after their 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament fight, Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence are rediscovering each other as martial arts rivals. During the original filming of The Karate Kid, the late director John G. The team behind Cobra Kai dug through the studio vault and found tons of never-before-seen clips that they were able to incorporate into the series using flashbulbs. One of them includes Zabka’s real-life mother, who was in the stands at multiple angles unseen until 2018. Ralph Macchio told Uproxx that there are three new angles of the famous crane kick.

Many people believe that Miyagi’s name on his tombstone is a continuity error, as in Karate Kid 4 (1994) his name is listed as Keisuke, but it actually appeared earlier on the plaque he held by Chozen in Karate Kid 2 (1986). This means that it was The Next Karate Kid who changed his name, while Cobra Kai kept the name he was given earlier. However, another interesting fact is that the name given in Karate Kid Part II was not the original name given to Miyagi. In Karate Kid (1984), Miyagi’s first name, Hideo, is briefly seen on Miyagi’s dog tags attached to the keys to the 1948 Ford given to Daniel for his birthday. I was a teenager in the 80s and loved watching this movie – as did most guys my age.

This is the best show anywhere

I was a little skeptical when I saw that they were making a new series set 30 years after the end of the movie. But when I saw the trailers, I thought they might be onto something. After watching several episodes, I can say that they succeeded. It’s not over the top (or underrated). It’s not dumb or stupid either.

But at 40 years old, I kind of agree with him

It does a great job of being serious with a few silly bits or 80s references here and there. This revival could have been a disaster, but it seems like they have the perfect lineup of writers, directors, and actors. actors. It’s funny because when I was a kid I wanted to punch Johnny in the throat as hard as I could. Kudos to the people responsible for making this happen – and of course it couldn’t have happened without Ralph & William.
