Some should never have been made in the first place, thus a remake/reboot would be adding insult to injury.

Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall said, "Guys don't mind hitting Michael Vick in the open field, but when you see Cam, you have to think about how you're going to tackle him. He's like a big tight end coming at you."

the karate kid...too late.

with time on my hand on saturday evening, again thanks father time, i had nothing better to do than watch nothing to loose.  this movie was an ill-fated attempt to remake (or at least parallel) the karate kid.  the updated version replaces karate with mma fighting.  again, it has it's ali, it's mr. miyagi, it's johnny and of course it's daniel.   nevertheless, it wasn't the same without "wax on...wax off".

as i did some research...i see in the upcoming year a remake titled "the karate kid" with  jackie chan will be heading to theaters.
