Time to let it be. Surely there are a million possible ideas out there for an underdog movie without going back to the same well.
California kid who learned Karate in a Strip Mall in Inglewood travels to Asia to fight some Monks and just get his ass unceremoniously kicked?

They don’t seem to be planning to run it again.

If anyone might have taped it and can burn a DVD or stick I would buy it.

Thanks.
Same here. Completely forgot about it. Damn.

They didn't capture any of the spirit of Cobra Kai. Take the worst episode of CK. This is 10X worse than that.

I took my six-year old to see it. Its too bad. I was ready to love it. And it had potential. It just... lacked any kind of inspiration whatsoever.

Had a friend in town for an early dinner. Turned out he hadn't seen Sinners, didn't know anything about it, so I took him and saw it a second time for myself.

Damn, that's a great movie. You pick up a bunch of little extras the 2nd time around. I hear it's streaming now, so if you haven't seen it, I recommend you do so.

Try to go in cold without watching trailers or reading anything though.

I'm going to watch Watership Down. Looks like a fun movie about cute bunnies. The name seems weird, and surely it won't have any themes relevant to our current political climate. Oh well.

Don’t think I’ve ever heard that movie described as “fun”.

I took that as heavily sarcastic.

I had to turn it off after 20 minutes. Please don’t tell me something bad happens to those poor bunnies.
