The Karate Kid

OK, they are remaking "The Karate Kid." I'm not really sure why except Will Smith is producing it, and it stars his son, so it looks like an attempt to make the kid a star.

I saw the trailer for it last night. It's apparently set in China and Jackie Chan plays the Mr. Miyagi character, so shouldn't it be called "The Kung Fu Kid"?

Anyway, Jaden Smith looks to be about 10 years old. And here's the really stupid part. The movie (and trailer) recreates the scene where Miyagi saves Daniel-san from the Cobra Kai kids. In the original, the kids were a bunch of high schoolers (played in Hollywood fashion by men in their early 20s), who were bigger than Miyagi. In the trailer, the kids attacking Jaden Smith look to be about his age. I repeat. Jackie Chan beats up a bunch of 10-year-old kids.

Did anyone think about that before they shot the scene, much less decided to include it in the trailer?
