Well I don't remember any threads about it, seems like the kind of project that would get a warm welcome from the initial details to me, top director, top writer, seems an attractive 'one sheet'.

Jaden's rise to supreme power will not be deterred by the shitty writing of Gary and direction of M.Knight. It has been foretold.

Im not debating whether KK is good or bad, but you havent seen many movies if its in your top 10 worst. It holds about a 70% on RT too.
I've seen more movies than you...I'm obsessed. I watch a new film everyday. There are films that are worse in terms of aesthetics, cinematography, and dialogue however those that are worse are more entertaining. Karate Kid occupies a sort of neither-land in that it is neither good nor hilariously bad. I think it's a failure both in terms of entertainment and artistry.

Nope. Eli had shit writing, and I'm more than sure this will too. I mean, M.Knight is on board so it has to be pretty shit. Lucky for both of them, Jaden will bring in some money to keep them in the business for now. The Smith domination can not be stopped.

Will you please admit that at this stage in his career Jaden is not a good actor? :lol

will totally Facebook friend you! *giggle* *LOL*
Sorry Gary, but getting in bed with M. Night has me losing all interest in this movie.


Really surprised anybody here finds the Jaden thing even remotely more troubling in anyway.

That opinion is certainly not worthy of a "what the fuck are you talking about". You must at least recognize that you share that stance with almost no one.

Damn.....

Well maybe Garry can convince someone not to preface any trailers with "from the mind of m. night shyamalan".

I hate Shyamalan as much as the next guy, probably more.
But his problem was always writing, he's a pretty decent director, or at least he was, Lady in The Water and The Happening are terrible across the board.

That being said, I think his name is box office poison at this point.

I just thought of an idea.

Since he loves to be in his own movies, write him into so many scenes that he can't possibly direct, then remove those scenes in editing.

?

This is pretty much M. Night's specialty and he has some decent movies under his cap: Unbreakable, Sixth Sense, The Village (Scarred by lackluster writing), and Signs was okay.

If you liked this Karate Kid remake you must have muted the television during all of Jaden's parts.

No...I did make an embarrassing post about my sex life though.

You sound like an unbelievable snob.

And this is GAF, we're all snobs.

I'll bet John Travolta is secretly doing a fist-pump at the prospect of this replacing Battlefield Earth on the list of worst sci-fi movies.

This is a terrible post. In addition, my insecurities dictate that I must use hyperbole in justifying my own opinion, so I classify this the 3rd worst post that has ever been on the internet. Ever.

GAF! be easy.

Garry has bills to pay. This will enable him to pay them and continue buying Macs. Chill.


Nobody's begrudging the guy his job, but any chance to pick on one of the worst directors making major motion pictures will be taken.

A far-future sci-fi by M. Night written by GW? Will watch...I'm a sucker for far future speculative sci-fi.

And is Gary really banned? For science's sake unban him now so he can tell us stuff.

None of what you said makes sense, there are 1000's of movies that are worse in every way and are also not entertaining.Its your opinion I suppose, but its not a very good one.

On a side note why is everyone saying Gary is banned?

I didn't know that. Good grief, he has 4 names or something. He needs to lose them all before getting banned.

It was a joke. Wow, didn't know there was a Jaden Smith/Karate Kid defense force. What's next a Noah Ringer/Last Airbender defense force.
