The Karate Kid original series COBRA KAI from YOUTUBE RED coming 2018
The Karate Kid is being revived by YOUTUBE RED with a NEW original series called COBRA KAI, Also, The Voltron Craze has finally hit the LEGO market. All that and a bag o' chips! Right now!
Waddup to my Peoples! Welcome back to RETRO CRUNCH, your nostalgia news show that is all about Current Pop Culture, Movies, Music, and Games that relates to all things 70s, 80s, and 90s!
Alright, so probably the most anticipated RETRO news to talk about is that YOUTUBE RED just announced that it is making an original series called COBRA KAI. Which looks like its gonna be directly based on the old Karate Kid Movie Franchise.
Its going to be a 10 episode comedy series that picks up 30 years after Daniel san edged out a win in the ALL Valley Karate Tournament. With some vudu magic from Mr. Miyagi of course...
Cobra Kai, is gonna be out in 2018, and will delve into the life of Daniel Larusso and his family as he is drawn back to Karate when his long time nemesis Johnny Lawrence reopens the Cobra Kai DOJO.
The story, aptly named COBRA KAI will be less about just Daniels story and more about how both Daniel and Johnny got to where they are today.
We will probably learn about how Daniel met his wife and raised their children in a post- Miyagi world.
Also, the show will delve more into whether Johnny really was a reformed degenerate that was just put into a bad situation when Daniel came to town and interrupted his chances at turning over a new leaf.
Such a tragic story..
An important aspect of the show according the Ralph Macchio is the absence of Mister Miyagi. I'm sure we will see many flashbacks and thought provoking lessons that Daniel will use as teaching moments for his kids that will be directly influenced by Miyagi.
Maybe some chop stick fly catching, or waxing the new ceramic floors of his McMansion.
So, there you have it. Are you excited that after 30 years, we get to finally see where it all will end?
I sure am and can't wait for the show to start! Let me know what you think about the news in the comments down below.
Also, in keeping with the KARATE KID spirit, you should check out the DANIEL IS A BULLY video on Youtube, cause you should go into WATCHING COBRA KAI knowing that Johnny Lawrence might have got a bad wrap.
By the time the video was over, I wasn’t sure whether Daniel or Johnny was the real bad guy. Funny stuff.
Then, theres a great music video that is just as funny, that has most of the karate kid cast in it, and if your truly a fan, you've gotta add this to your watch list. Ill link to all the videos and news we talked about down below.
Then next! Onto some RETRO Toy news.
Voltron, Defender of the Universe is getting a LEGO toy! And it is the brainchild of a contest winner of the Lego ideas Program where the winner designed the LEGO Voltron based on his childhood toy.
This brings up the question of whether LEGO will opt to go with the more Nostalgic version, or in keeping with more modern fandom, opt for the NETFLIX one.
Lego has not made any mention for pricing or availability yet, but said to check back in 2018 for more information.
The wait sucks, but at least we have a LEGO Voltron coming at some time!
Let me know down below which version of Voltron you'd like to see LEGO make.
And If you have any friends or family that like RETRO NEWS or you think would enjoy this video be sure to share it with them.
