Will Smith Remakes The Karate Kid, Casts His Son in Lead

Here is some more news on that Karate Kid remake that's gonna kick your precious childhood memories right in the nuts:

As you can imagine, any Karate Kid remake will require going through the paces of the original, such as the “wax on, wax off” scene. Except now they’d be updated with modern, yet even more tired references like, “Turn the Internet history on, turn the Internet history off. Clean the hard drive, side to side.” And you can bet you’ll get a Nintendo Wii product placement in that training sequence.

Not helping matters, the new Miyagi is reportedly Jackie Chan, who will deliver all this eastern wisdom with the mush mouth diction of the Elephant Man doing Jello shots on his birthday at Hooters.
