This week, James and Jon are covering The Karate Kid (2010), directed by Harald Zwart, screenplay by Christopher Murphey, story by Robert Mark Kamen, starring Jaden Smith, Jackie Chan, and Taraji P. Henson. Together, they discuss their personal experiences with karate, the way the Karate Kid franchise resembles the Child's Play franchise's continuity, whether or not John Voight's going to save Hollywood, where this film fell in the trajectory of Jaden Smith's acting career, Bray's rollercoaster reaction to the film, why Jada Pinkett Smith didn't play the Taraji P. Henson role, sponge metaphors, just how brutal these twelve-year-olds get with each other, off-shoring of the auto industry, and much, much more!
