 Karate Kid is a serious Oscar contender!!!!!
Quote: Also, we'll gladly go on record that Sony has a serious Oscar contender on their hands in many categories with The Karate Kid, including Best Picture, directing, writing, cinematography, James Horner's score, and yes, even Jackie Chan in the supporting actor category! You can take that to the bank, but you might have to stand in line behind Sony, because they're going to make a lot of money when The Karate Kid becomes the sleeper hit of the summer once it opens on June 11. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/showestnews.php?id=64310I really liked the trailers, so I won't be surprised if the actual movie is just awesome. I really think this is gonna kill the A-team.

 Re: Karate Kid is a serious Oscar contender!!!!!
I'll watch it. The trailer has won me over. When I first heard of the idea and the choice of Jaden I thought it was ridiculous. Anyway, I can't see this being a BP contender but if the year is weak then maybe JC can do Supporting but I doubt it at this point.

 Re: Karate Kid is a serious Oscar contender!!!!!
I seriously, seriously don't buy this. It may be an enormous hit with stellar W.O.M. from general audiences, but Oscars? Harald Zwart (Agent Cody Banks, The Pink Panter 2) for Best Director? No. No.
Pat Morita was Oscar nominated for the original film, so I s'pose Chan might be a very, very dark horse contender in Best Supporting Actor. Even there, though, I am hesitant to seriously consider this.

 Re: Karate Kid is a serious Oscar contender!!!!!
If Jackie Chan training a black boy with corn rows to the tune of "remember the name" is not oscar bait, I have no idea what is.

Posting the same thing in two parts of the forum does not make this claim any less inane.

 Re: Karate Kid is a serious Oscar contender!!!!!
All they said was that this is an OK Movie and specially Jackie Chan will not get anyways near to Oscar.
Definitely not even close to win a single normal award leave Oscars behind
