The Karate Kid Deception

Reasonable audiences could assume that a movie called "The Karate Kid" would be about a kid who, well, does karate. But, in the case of the newly released feature starring Jaden Smith  and Jackie Chan, that assumption is only half right.

The truth is that Mr. Smith's character (aka "the kid") does not practice karate, but the art of kung fu. This inconvenient truth was picked up on in various reviews and blogs. Misleading? Maybe. But nobody seems too surprised that the forces behind the remake elected to stick with the well-known title rather than practice a little truth in advertising. Why mess with a successful franchise?

Web searchers were quick to pick up on the minor controversy, sending online lookups for "kung fu vs. karate" and "difference between kung fu and karate" to significant gains.

hahaha. Last week my dad and I were going to watch Robin Hood, but the darn film was sold out. We had an option of watching Karate Kid, but that, too, was sold out.

Ingon to si dad, "Paita pood ni!" hahaha katawa nalang mi duha on the drive back home. :P
