Nothing Witty Here, Just Clips That Make Me Laugh

CLIP 1: Missile Dropkick From Top Of Car
Note: Simultaneous screams of horror, very loud footsteps on car and Larry Holmes' white tracksuit.



CLIP 2: If He Dies, He Dies
Note: On top of being really gangster, this is a phrase that may be used in every day situations, ie "Jim can't come out tonight. Whatever, if he dies, he dies."



CLIP 3: Modified Select Dental Commercial
Note: This guy beat us to the punch in spoiling this ad. It's tremendous work.



CLIP 4: Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm Cover
Note: Equal parts hilarious and chilling, only the first few seconds are worth it.



CLIP 5: Daniel Larusso on the Worst Date Ever
Note: Best part, starting around 1:40, thug Dennis is so disgusted Daniel hasn't signed the paperwork to enter the next all-Valley tournament that he uses an inexplicable method we call 'the claw' to destroy a rice paper screen. A completely disproportionate amount of energy expended to rip something that only needed a slight tear makes this pure gold. The whole clip is a decent investment of your time.

WTF is up with the singing shirtless dude??

It would have been really amazing if the Amtrak had struck their car and killed all of them.

"I got 2 tickets to the DANCE club." hahahaha

"Hey Dennis, he's not going to sign it."

(Dennis pauses for effect, shakes his head as if to say 'you made me do this' and rips apart a paper display with his bare hands in a 'claw' formation.)

Notice how Miyagi always does the same move? One block and a 'throw' over his shoulder? And anytime anyone attacks Miyagi in all 4 films they must preface the attack by saying "Come on old
man!"

I have to give the screenwriter props for coming up with such a great scenario ripe with unintential comedy:

"Daniel refuses to do Karate so Daniel gets beat up, time and time again for most of the movie."

HAHAHA genius.

Ps was there a scene at the Dance club? I forget. I can picture Daniel dancing really poorly with that girl to a cheesy late 80's pop song and then those three dudes showing up dressed in silk shirts and slacks to further terrorize him.

yes, there was a scene at the dance club. terry silver (played by the slick thomas ian griffith) pays a guy like five bucks to harrass daniel's gf to rattle him. daniel breaks the guy's nose in a stunning reversal of the punching bag daniel we all know. it's hilarious, too.

Karate Kid 3 is frankly incredible. Someone needs to do a shot for shot remake with Ralph Macchio playing Daniel even though he's probably in his late 40's now.
