AngelaG Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 also, in the fight scene where "daniel -san" is up on one leg, and does the jump kick to win, he is actually in the white crane stance (again, very poorly done).....Goju Ryu decsends from White Crane. I heard somewhere that the "crane kick" used in the Karate Kid movie was actually created specifically for the movie and was not derived from any actual karate move or stance. I could be wrong, or my source could be wrong, but I was fairly certain that at the time, that move was not a legitmate karate move because it had no practical application. I also heard from the same source (I think it might have been a special feature on the DVD, but I'll have to double check) that the move was created specifically to look cool and make for a climactic ending. Wap Yup I read that too. I also read that the kata used in KK3 was made up as well!

Master Jules Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 I was several years ago for a short time. Around the time of my divorce, my life became so hectic that I had to leave. I did send all of my students to continue their training to Chi-I-Do. ~Master Jules......aka "The Sandman""I may be a trained killer......but Im really a nice guy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
