Since the first episode of Cobra Kai, the series has always toyed with the idea of who the plot’s main villain is. Daniel Larusso?Ralph Macchio) or Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka)? The originality of the premise of this sequel, which was originally created, YouTube and one of today’s greatest achievements Netflixit was about transforming everything we already knew about the movie. karate boy between 80s and give us a new perspective. It was the perfect title for the platform that made the nostalgia of the eighties one of its biggest hits with Stranger Things. In this way, the television version became the best, the continuation of the saga. In the last few seasons, the series has taken a delicate path. Integrate all sequels with the same fidelity and respect as the original title.
I don’t remember if I saw the third installment of Karate Kid back in the day. I forgot everything, but it is quite possible that I jumped ship after the release of the latter. In this fifth season, recently released on Netflix, the villain of the third movie in the legend is the enemy to defeat. I said I had doubts about whether I would watch the movie because Terry Silver’s character (Thomas Ian Griffith) was very charismatic. He’s been a series-top villain for the past two seasons, serving everyone who was Danny Larusso’s enemy one day in the past. ally against the new threat. The writers were able to see her potential and own her figure. But of course. this enemy was the man who killed the epic. Did it end the careers of its heroes, too? With his ponytail and utter unscrupulousness, in some action spin-off he starred in, he looked like one of those villains straight out of an early ’90s movie. lorenzo llamas or some actors with similar cache.
Terry Silver becomes a symbol of the wildest capitalism and the motto that victory justifies every road. Back in those days when there were bad guys in the movies james bond They were drug dealers, Silver has a knack too conquer the world. But the invading army is actually a chain of gyms that have become the equivalent of fast food franchises where everything tastes the same no matter where we are on the planet. An excessive ambition contrary to Mr. Miyagi’s principles (Pat Morita) instilled in his disciple Daniel-san when he taught karate to protect himself from his bullies. Season five cemented one of the moments most fans expected to see: The one about Danny and Johnny finally becoming friends. But that wasn’t the only friendship they both found along the way. For this, they included Daniel’s other rivals in the other two films of the saga starring Macchio.
Even John Creese for a moment (Martin Kove) Miyagi was going to join Daniel’s army to defend the dojo, at the end of the fourth season the series started toying with the idea of redemption for this villain. We don’t know how many deliveries of Cobra Kai remain, but everything indicates that a result may be coming. sixth season. But the truth is, all the way has been opened up for Creese to be the last enemy our heroes will have to face. The series justified the character of Terry Silver, but as we said above, he did not have enough weight to be the last enemy. Instead of Creese… that’s something else. After all, it was he who contributed to the rivalry between Dani and Johnny. As well as the one who brought Silver to his crusade against Miyagi. Doubts about the last season consist of clarifying whether it will finally see the light and following all the players’ instructions. they tried to drive him away from the dark sideor on the other hand, the door to his salvation will be closed for sure.
The series played on the nostalgia effect by freeing the cast from the original films while also creating a large cast of supporting characters. We’re so close to the end that we don’t know yet if they’ll play a final card. Hillary Swan It was the actress in the 90s that the saga tried to return to the screen, but failed. He took over the character from Daniel Larusso as a student of Mr. Miyagi. Considering that the actor has worked for other Netflix series before, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to see him here again, no matter how unsuccessful that movie was. If they succeeded in doing that with the third episode of Karate Kid, that wouldn’t be a problem either. And then of course we have one more big unknown. What will happen to his reboot from the saga? Will Smith and his son played Jaden Smith? Will they forget him? Since Will Smith is one of the producers of Cobra Kai, I’d say no, despite being in a slump after what happened on Oscar night. But who knows? And yes Chris Rock Did you get a kick from the crane?
