hmm... I'm guessing if this is set in beijing it will be kung fu not karate, right?
Now the question is, does anyone know what style they'll be aping?

Amicus has it right, this remake's premise is fucked from the get-go. Karate is from Japan. Not China.

so terrible.

It could actually be alright (despite not being karate).
I sincerely hope that it is, because I'd like my son to have a movie like the original Karate Kid to fall in love with and inspire him. (I finally achieved my black belt rank about a month ago)

I am sure the Will Smith financially produced and backed the movie, and their will be at least (3) stupid rap songs performed by Will Smith on the soundtrack.

wow, synchronized karate dancing with a hippedy-hop-till-you-don't-stop soundtrack. it's all a modern teeny-popper could hope for without all the lame-o character development, tiresome story arcs, and multiple plot points the orginal was laden with.
somewhere, ralph macchio is considering suicide so he can roll over in his grave.

Man, they had to use the same damn name too. The original is still awesome and holds up fine.
What an ego trip, remaking it so your son can be the Karate Kid.

I think it's unfair. I bet the original script for this remake featured Karate and then the producers decided they needed a seat-filling name. Karate's been let down, but I suppose MMA Kid or Ninja Boy doesn't have the same ring to it... neither does Wushu Kid

We need a young kung lassie to come out in a movie called:
wait for it, I swear it's gonna be good....

^ shit. i meant kung fu woman.
btw... small lyric changes and we've got a title track...
Raven hair and ruby lips
Sparks fly from her finger tips
Echoed voices in the night
She's a restless spirit on an endless flight
Wooo hooo witchy woman, see how
High she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman she got
The moon in her eye
She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another
Room and she drove herself to madness
With a silver spoon
Woo hoo witchy woman see how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman she got the moon in her eye
Well I know you want a lover,
Let me tell your brother, she's been sleeping
In the devil's bed.
And there's some rumors going round
Someone's underground
She can rock you in the nighttime
'til your skin turns red
Woo hoo witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye

I think the reason why it is in China and Jackie Chan is the teacher is Hollywood trying to weasel some money out of the new rich Chinese market.
