The Karate Kid II

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana discuss the 1986 martial arts drama The Karate Kid II.  Who knew that the Karate Kid was a Roman Numeral deserving franchise?  In this sequal to the 1984 franchise starter, Daniel-san and Mr Miyagi take their kicks on the road and travel across the Pacific to the island of Okinawa to set right wrongs that have festered for decades.  You know what to except in these movies, but there is something fun about the foreign location that adds to this one and saves it from just being a cookie cutter sequel.  And if you watched Cobra Kai (which you should do), this is important viewing since one of the characters introduced here is very important to that show.  Enjoy the podcast!Jason, Andy and Dana will discuss a 1986 movie weekly, breaking down all the nonsense there within. The 3 hosts all work together and everyone else around them was getting really annoyed at all the movie talk, so they decided to annoy the world in podcast form.Check out previous seasons to hear them discuss 1982, 1983, 1984 & 1985 movies, as well as a full season of Love Boat episodes (if that is your thing). Plus one-off specials and a weekly mini "what are we watching" podcast.#jezoo74 #aegonzo1 #danacapoferri #exciting_new
