  2. FARFRUMLUZIN

    This movie looks good. They really put the “Kid” in Karate Kid this time around. I thought Jackie Chan was going to snap those little arms off lol!

  3. FARFRUMLUZIN

    Man I would have been first but that stupid POP UP slowed me down. God Blessem

  4. Virgodoll75

    I was skeptical at first but it looks like a good movie.

  5. JstBReal

    This looks like a real good movie.

  6. Ms.Mel

    My husband and I can’t wait to bring our son to see this movie!!!
    It looks really good!

  7. newsacredcow

  8. opium.lady

    wow this really made my day (em pathetic?) haha! karate kid is one of my fav childhood movies…i’m so seeing this lol

  9. reader

    So cute! And flexible! Dang! That boy is a star! The movie is something I will definitely be taking the kids to see.

  10. MsTasha

    I think its gonna be really good.Good thing this time they chose a good cast for a remake.

  11. The Heap

    What’s up with all the damn remakes? Can people not come up with original ideas anymore? Smdh!

  12. RETRO MADNESS

    Lol Jaden Smith Looks like Ja Ja Binx! He is one ugly kid, so skinny and long lookin…Seems like light skin is fast becoming the ‘standard’ Black and it kills me, because its not conveying a positive message to the world. There needs to be equal numbers of dark skin actors/singers gracing our screens as well as the light skin ones. Because it seems like the ‘Original’ black people (dark skin) are becoming extinct and thats what the enemy (white people) want.

    BTW I WILL NOT be taking my children to watch this film.

  13. Vanity

    I’m goin to see this, no questions asked. This boy is gonna be big, yea he got a footstep in the door because he’s father is Will Smith, but the boy has talent.

  14. Lady J

    GO TARAJI!!! Glad to see the sista back. Jayden & Jackie, classic

  15. Vanity

    Retro Madness- what’s with all the hate? and calling a CHILD ugly because he’s light skin? you’re sad and you’re a grown woman including a MOTHER. Ok be mad there aren’t many dark skin actors, but what is your hatin and bitchin gonna do? not a damn thing.

  16. Lady J

    @ 12, your ignorance is only outdone by your complete insecurities. You get on your soap box by proclaiming “positivity”, but since was calling someone’s child jar jar binx positive? Truly pathetic. If you truly stood for Black unity you would not devise by perpetuating this whole “light skinned” “Dark skinned” crap which btw is SOOSOO tired and ancient… All black is beautiful must I remind you we did not asked to be born what we are, and LOL, when was “Dark” the original black. It has been found that Indigenous people of South Africa have a gene strain that causes fairer skin as well as green eyes, and they have no more white genes in them than any other African nationality. Just because you have skin issues dont float that diarreah on here ok… btw the “enemy” could care less about you hating on light skin people, he’s actually laughing his ass off because your stupid enough to perpetuate thier greatest trick: hate, divide, and kill off your own so they dont have too.. thanks for making the “enemies” job easier, fu#$%* idiot

  17. Jashunta

    Retro Madeness are you serious?” Wow” at you. I’m dark skinned also and a mother of three girls. What does that have to do with this posts? Nothing! Talk about issues…Anyway, he is a talented young man. I will watch this movie and I hope it is just as good as the other ones were. Peace and love to all skin tones lmao

  18. CallMeQueen

    I can’t wait to see this!
    I am always skeptical about remakes but the preview alone….it looks so inspiring.
    I’ve always wanted to take a martial arts class of some sort.

    Oh and Retro. Really? I think everyone else took the words out of my mouth. Yes we do live in a society that does hold features that a closer to Eurocentric on a higher level, but that doesnt give you license to deem the black individuals ugly because they have those features. He is a cute kid, light skin, puffy curly hair and all. And I have no problem admitted that with me having dark skin, and kinky hair and all!!!!

    Grow up.
    And seeing as you have children, you remarks have proven that it is needed.

  19. Pinksorbet08

    @ Retro
    I really pray for your children. They are innocent and didn’t ask to be born to such a closed minded person whom is supposed to be A WOMAN..
    Jayden is a smart kid and I cannot wait to go see this movie.

  20. FallBackHaters

    @ #12- Your comment was so uncalled for. Jaden is a handsome boy, you wait til he gets older, he’ll grow even more into those looks. He’ll be the spittin image of his father, you wait and see. Adorable little boy.

    To be honest this trailer isn’t making me want to rush out and watch it, but I said from day one when I heard they were making a remake of this film with Jaden Smith that I’d go out and support it, so I will. I think it’ll be a great watch.

  21. asunkee

    SMH @ RetroMadness
    Disgusting…

    On another note, this movie looks like it will be enjoyable.

  22. isysschick

    Looks like a good movie can’t wait to see it when it comes out in theaters.

  23. Mochcherry83

    OMGsh.. I’m going to see this.. Excellent casting for this movie!!!

  24. Tina aka Beanie

    Definitely looks like a good movie. The Smith’s got another Star in the family!

  25. Tina aka Beanie

    BTW..I would ignore RetroMadness…more than like a fat, barely literate, white trailer trash, fast food born and raised troller trying to “stir up trouble” on black sites. It’s common these days unfortunately.

  26. Holleywood

    That whole fam is making green! That is a good thing! I anin’t mad at them! Thanks J Dakar :)

  27. LIL CHOC

    can’t wait to see this. jaden is adorable! retro-i feel bad for you. whoever hurt you and/or your children committed a crime. i’ll keep you all in prayers!

  28. media robot

    I tell you Will & Jada did a great job because this young man is a genuine talented actor…I’m def going to see this!

  29. kcool

    I’m supporting it lust like I supported his last movie and all of his daddy’s movies.Love The Smith family easy to work with.

  30. ShanBan!

    CL
    yuh know howwwww long ago i saw this trailer?
    you cant do this!
    at least post something that isnt on another site be exciting!

  31. ShanBan!

    ROFL’in
    @ everyone getting at no. 12 for calling the boy ugly
    it was his own opinion.

  32. UM... I GUESS

    it looks cute… but im tired of all these remakes. why cant hwood just let a good thing BE?! smh

  33. BEN

    I might be the first on this blog to say this, but this looks UBER corny. I believe there is no doubt it will draw in numbers because it is Will Smith’s son. But this version doesn’t look as serious as the one from 83, looks like they are making a big joke out of it.

  34. t

    it looks like it will be good!

  35. truthfullyspeaking

    This movie looks so lame. I am also tired of these damn remakes! Directors/writers need to come up with something new. It’s funny because when someone does come up with an original or unique idea, other movies copy it…. example “The Ring.” Every horror movie after that had a ghost of a kid or a possessed child in it! I loved the Karate Kid with the girl, that one was inspiring and funny, but they should have just left it at that. Taraji P. Henson is too ghetto to be playing in a film like this. It’s good to see Will’s son trying to act though, but I want to see him in an original movie.

  36. Lavi

    Nice. Will be seeing this.

  37. mantra56

    I have no interesting in seeing this but best of luck to the Smiths

  38. tell the truth

    this boy is so cute he is gonna be a heartbreaker once he gets older…. cant wait to see the movie and for the idiot that commented on his skin tone, i feel sorry for your children, its people like you that carry on hate in this world.

  39. ni

    He looks like riley from the boondocks, lol. Very cute!!!

  40. Shabazz

    Racial stereotypes come from the media. When Hollywood saw how much money that the Rush Hour movies made, when they teamed up a black and Asian actor, Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan, they started to copy that same format with Karate Kid , by teaming up young Jaden with Jackie Chan. That`s how Hollywood works , when a movie like Rush Hour is financially successful they will copy that format to death, until eventually it becomes a racial stereotype and people start stereotyping and thinking that all asians know karate and all black people are clowns who can dance.

  41. Sherelle from england

    AAAAWWW JADEN LOOKS SO CUTE..
    RETROMADNESS :o :o TUTTUT U SHUD BE ASHAMED SEYIN STUFF LIKE THT IT DNT MATTA WAT COMLEXION WERE ALL BLK WE ALL GET LOOKED AT THE SAME WAY WE ALL GET DICRIMNATED AGAINST THE SAME WAY….

  43. Deann Dmere

  44. DaLady

    I loved the original movie and this one looks like its gonna be cute younger version of the movies… hope its as good as the trailer ALWAYS cautious when the trailers are good…

  45. Felicia

    @ 35. truthfullyspeaking, “The Ring” is a remake too.

  46. Singer with Soul

    I can’t wait to see this one!! Very Cute kid But doesnt he look like Rilly from the Bondocks with those braids in his head..lol

  47. Mini Me

    This trailer honestly made me wanna go out and see this movie. Jaden is too cute. & to me a remake is when they do the exact same movie over like cant buy me love and love don’t cost a thing. this is just using the same formula of the karate kid with a different plot and characters. ppl always gotta complain about something i don’t see none of ya’ll pickin up pens and writing scripts
    & i was gonna get on #12 but everybody beat me to the punch lol

  48. BLACK-IVORY

    he’s sooooooo damn cute…will and jada must be proud of him…go jayden!!!!

  49. cubevision

    this looks decent..

  50. MoniMoni

    As an adult, I wouldn’t put it on my list, I’d wait for cable, but for people who have children, I think they should be happy that there is a movie that they can take their children to see.

    Go Jaden! Go Jackie!

  51. 2 BAD

    @ Truthfullyspeaking

    Also The Ring was not the first movie to show a possessed child. Ever heard of The Exorcist (1973) or The Omen (1976)?

  52. ♥¸.•*´¨`*•.¸♥•.¸♥¸SHEENA♥ ¸.•*´¨`*•.¸♥•.¸

    Awww he is such a little cutie pie! I loved him ever since The Pursuit of Happyness. I for one am glad that they are at least using a little black kid in this part. They could have easily given this role to a little white boy. Why not just be proud for the little kid’s success? I think parents should take their kids to see it. At least they get to see a positive image of a little kid that looks like them. Come on people give me a break. I bet if it was a re-make with a little white kid you would all take your kids to see it with no problem at all. Why scrutinize it to death when it’s Jaden? My people are so backwards.

  53. Brilliant

    @Retro Madness, you made yourself sound completely stupid. For one he isn’t light, secondly we are aware if the issues but it doesn’t take hating to solve it, he is a cute CHILD. Thirdly I am light skinned and I believe in black love and power but it takes love for all black people not just the original blacks as you put it.. SMH

    Keyword: KID

    Wonder why they didn’t use a teenager like the orginal?

  55. blkmarilyn

    I bet ya will was on him like white on rice to get this role down. Jayden is a natural and so was his little daughter in Kit Kidrige. Love the Smiths. Love black folk doing positive things.
