KickChick Posted March 14, 2003 Posted March 14, 2003 Miyagi Chojun was the founder of Goju Ryu and creator of Fukyugata Ni.... purely a fictional movie starring Noriyuki Pat Morita as Mr. Miyagi.
ZeRo Posted March 14, 2003 Posted March 14, 2003 the thing i dont get about the karate kid is why he used a kung fu stance at the end?
Mayur Posted March 14, 2003 Posted March 14, 2003 ^ Hollywood And more hollywood It's just a movie mean to entertain Though it does seem BS to us fatherly martial artists |Mayur|
rb Posted March 15, 2003 Posted March 15, 2003 the thing i dont get about the karate kid is why he used a kung fu stance at the end? Because we know which style is better ! Sorry couldn't resist that one
BKJ1216 Posted March 15, 2003 Author Posted March 15, 2003 ^ I'll assume you study kunfu. White Belt- Shudokan Karate
karate_woman Posted April 15, 2003 Posted April 15, 2003 Well, Miyagi Chojun did study White Crane Kung Fu in China, so it isn't all that far fetched that he would teach a Kung Fu move, and if you think about it the move could be part of the bunkai for saifa, but no, it is just a movie The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. -Lao-Tse
shotochem Posted April 15, 2003 Posted April 15, 2003 I actually just watched that for the first time today. Is that Mr. Miagi(sp) guy the same one who made okinawan goju-ryu? And if it is is that what he is teachign the Daniel kid? I thought he is the guy who grilled burgers for Ritchie and the Fonz!!!! OMG!!! Im really getting old . Pain is only temporary, the memory of that pain lasts a lifetime.
