"Show Me Sand The Floor" | The Karate Kid (1984)
/ pieceoftheaction
These two guys have a permanent place in the childhood memories of millions of people. The best place for any memory.
Indeed. But poor William Zabka.... forever a permanent place as a hated bully. But love his arc in Cobra Kai.
@@ckmoore101 I dont know about that. I always remember his hesitation to go through with the foul, and by the end he has a mutual respect for Daniel. If anything I think he humanized what would have been a cliche bully character.
@@Kyrieru
Idk... Hesitating in doing the fouls probably because people can see what they've been doing publicly and on record.
He might wanted to be seen as a badass martial artist, but not (yet?) as a bad guy.
He could have won the tournament... but not the popularity.
Besides... cheating on a beginner like Daniel would have felt an empty win. Probably wanted to win fairly to show who's a better fighter. Anyway, Daniel has only a few months against his years of training.
Including me.
And so many people have been beaten up after thinking those moves actually work xD
"Come back tomorrow." After all that intensity, Miyagi closes the lesson with three words wrapped in kindness. He could have gone off with a lecture explaining to Daniel the purpose of the indirect guidance, or chastised him for his attitude. Instead he just invites him back to learn more, with smiling eyes.
Reminds me of an NFL game where Brett Favre makes a comment of seeing Mister Miyagi in the stands, Pat Morita comes down to meet him. A bit of parallel!!
He didn't need to lecture. He explained and Daniel was in denial not comprehending. The Mr. Miyagi showed him the demonstration and proved his point 👉. The demonstration was self explained.
Of course he had to come back tomorrow. The Daniel did not finish painting the house.
Indeed
I'm convinced that - were this made today (I haven't seen the remake) - they'd feel the need for him to literally explain what just happened as though the audience were stupid. "Wow, so, all of those chores were actually training!" "Yes, wax-on, wax-off, this is how you...". Show don't tell is a dying art :(
A classic scene between teacher and student. This is what makes this movie a classic,
TRUE THAT
@@KOOLBROTHA Real Dat !
I love it when he pounds him.
Would have been awesome if Morita had actually won the Oscar for best supporting actor.
@@oobenoob lmfao
The acting is superb. Daniel's slow progression from tired, achy, and dopey, slowly changing to understanding. Watch Daniel's eyes as he is struggling to comprehend, and then his dawning realization.
Robby Keene has continued the master-to-apprentice chain.
The static framing is perfect too. The way Miyagi is rock solid while Daniel-san drops out of frame like a goofball.
What I love about this is that Mr. Miyagi is really teaching Danny to trust him. He put him through all that doubt and frustration only to realize later that it was for his own benefit. Now if Danny doubts Mr. Miyagi’s teachings again he’ll remember to trust that everything will make sense later on.
Kind of like what parents are supposed to do.
Personally I thought it was more of a lesson in humility that he was building in him, emphasizing that yes this is him teaching him how to fight but all of his lessons to this point were focused on being defensive and with relatively basic chores being used. It helped to contrast it against how obviously arrogant and aggressive the cobra Kai students were who were so high on their own pride that when Mr. Miyagi fought them earlier they almost never used any defensive moves. Clearly he wanted to make sure Danny didn’t fall into the same failings in his lessons.
@@errickflesch5565 yeah till they're unable to stop their child taking hormone blockers, or to voice their concern at school meetings without being arrested
@John it develops a sense of accomplishment, to see an end result of your own hard work. A little pride with the humility.
@@errickflesch5565 well yeah! The movie is clearly putting Miyagi in the father role since 1) Daniel's dad abandoned him and 2) Miyagi lost his son in childbirth.
I loved how Miyagi yelled “SHOW!” at Daniel
like Johnny yelling "QUIET!"
At first i though he told Daniel to SHUT UP lols😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@markmac2206... And that makes Johnny Lawrence the next best "Miyagi Level" teacher of karate, i guess the writers of cobra kai managed to get that point across.
the prelude to Johhny's "QUIET"
That’s a bit of Eagle Fang comin out 😂
Its funny how he taught him basic 8 blocking techniques and also got his work done! Genius.
Think of it like a form of payment. While Miyagi teaches Daniel, Daniel does his lessons in the form of chores and the chores act as a form of payment themselves. At the same time the chores also teach Daniel that dedication and hard work pay off in the long run.
@@Sigma0283 don't forget it is also muscle memory buildup.. so many hours doing the same thing..
Still a bargain for LaRusso vs paying for years of Karate lessons 🤷♂️
Yes sensai..
HE MISSED A SPOT
One of the best scenes ever filmed, brilliant in every way. Makes me emotional every time
How can it be brilliant in 'every' way when it contains a continuity mistake? That alone means the editing was not brilliant for starters.
@@GodofMMA23 It's brilliant because 99.9999% of viewers are not Karate Black Belts and don't care about any technical inaccuracies.. it was brilliant because this one scene set the tone for the rest of the movie, the relationship between Daniel and Mr. Miyagi, and sequels. The emotional impact and 'Wow' factor of this scene have been acknowledge a million times since the movies was released.
@@GodofMMA23 I'm pretty sure they were talking about entertainment
@@verde6529 ah, well I got confused because they described it as brilliant in 'every way' and it's one of those scenes that I find brilliant in 99% of the ways. But it's also one of those scenes that once tou see the mistake you cant 'unsee' it and ruins it every time you watch.....like the gas canister in the chariot in gladiator or the pylons in the background in Robin hood..when Daniel's right hand changes to his left makes thos scene hard to watch because you remember this is just a film created by humans up until that point you are immersed and forget about real life and believe it, then this scene brings you back down to earth and reminds you it's not real..
Sony improved on it in 2010
This scene never fails to make me cry. The realization in Daniel's face when he realizes he's been learning all along. Ugh.
Such an iconic moment
Really??? It makes you cry!?? Good lord.
Do that Ugh again 💧
Me too.
you really are nobody lmao xD@@mistermysteryman107
The patience of Mr. Myagi is simply beautiful.
Patience of Mr. Myagi?!? Patience of Daniel! The dude painted the house, waxed the car, sanded the deck for what he thought was nothing! That's hella patience.
Not as patient as Daniel was with Dimitri.
@@morgangore1193 truthfully, Daniel's patience didn't impress me at all. Why? He asked to be trained and agreed with no question. Remember?
The only person Daniel had to be patient with is himself and those aspects of himself that needed elimination or refining.
@@jeffreyjackson5229 Before this moment, Daniel didn't realize he was being trained. For all he knew, Miyagi had lied to him in exchange for free labor
I dunno. Miyagi seemed to be on the verge of losing his patience a few times. Notice how he smacked Daniel upside the head once or twice? Mind you, I don't blame Miyagi for doing that, but still....
"Never take your eyes off your opponent, even when you bow" - Bruce Lee
"Never lower your eyes to an enemy!" - Tatzu
The life lesson we can all learn from Mr. Miyagi is "always look eye."
i had already learned that lesson from master tatsu, except it was more like *WHAM* "NEVER LOWER YOUR EYES TO AN ENEMY!"
Most important thing to learn is never take your eyes off of an opponent. Let your ears pay attention to your surroundings.
What about “ No be there”
Also “no be there.”
@Kevin Hart You don't know what you're talking about Kevin Hart, always look at the eyes.
1:53 when mr miyagi makes fun of Daniel lol
That's pure Pat Morita! you could see that personality come through a lot in episodes of Happy Days
“Ah da da da… Stand up!”..
lol..
Eh... waxe onnnee, waxe ooofffff..
👋🤨👋
😂
😆😆
@@Professor__SLMAOOOO 😂😂💀
Mr. Miyagi's wisdom shows in the writing of this scene. The best way to train someone to naturally do something as a reaction is to develop the muscle memory so it happens devoid of thought and entirely as a reaction. He taught him through repetitive tasks not tied to karate how to do Miyagi-do karate almost instinctively. Excellent writing showing the interaction between master and student. One of the best scenes of this movie.
Ultra Instinct...
Body reacts by itself without thinking of doing it.
Well actually if you really learn the history of karate it's originated from everyday activities done by the local. From normal activity then it turns into a self defense created to protect oneself. Sadly not many people know the wisdom from this brilliant history.
Not just repetitive tasks, but also tiring tasks. Mr Miyagi was not just getting Daniel to build up muscle memory, but also the muscle strength/endurance to perform those defensive moves for as long as needed against someone who had been practicing those attacks for many years
Daniel was expecting to be taught Americanized karate. While it is useful, no doubt, the point that you made about muscle memory and repetition is dead on. Repetition is how we trained in the military.
I have read this statement many times, by many martial artist:
" I don't fear that man who practices 10k techniques one time; I fear the man who practices 1 technique 10k times."
This would be correct on multiple levels. For one part Mr Miyagi was teaching muscle memory and stamina. Also, in the old temples, pat of how a student would be paying his way was to be doing whatever jobs needed to be done around the property. So in that way it was also following the old traditions.
One of my daughter's karate instructors had said that as he progressed through the different belts, he recognized a lot of those moves taught in the first-level katas. So right from the start you would be learning all the components of your later training, each belt building upon the core elements learned before.
Daniel's last spoken line in that scene is at 1:52; he says nothing else for the remaining 2 minutes of that scene, only conveying his confusion and then his discovery through his body language.
It was the mid 80's and I watched this scene for the first time in a movie theatre in Nurnberg, Germany. When they finally put all of those moves together and we (the audience) suddenly realized that Mr Miyagi really was teaching Karate the whole time, the audience literally burst out in applause...at a movie screen, but still....
Still what?
@@naglismalisauskas1779 Syill Still.
That is the power of narrative cinema
They didn't literally burst out. They figuratively burst out.
What I loved most here, was how Miyagi was teaching Danny how to block and deflect a punch, which is more important than learning how to throw punch
Anyone can throw a punch, but to deflect, dodge, block, stop, that takes real skill
Being in Shotokan Karate for some thirty years, anyone cannot throw a punch or block as a novice, that has to be learned.
Anyone can throw a punch
Landing it on your intended target does take practice
But in the book, Mr. Miyagi taught Danny how to punch last
Not everyone can throw a punch - not properly.
It paid off in the tournament too.. Daniel was at his best staying in the pocket, blocking or avoiding punches and countering off that..
Yeah, it also keeps you standing
I love how Cobra Kai honors Pat by basically having him be present despite the fact that he's no longer with us
In season 3, that bartender in Japan tells Daniel after looking at photo of Miyagi how someone can continue to live in your heart after they're gone.
Daniel’s moment of realization is profound and moving. Little things that seen unconnected turn into big things. Just love this scene forever.
Mr Miyagi is a perfect example of a good approach to take with young men, particularly young men without a father. He balances compassion and understanding with toughness, discipline, and reality. These are the characters we used to get from Hollywood.
Yup. Now we get Andrew Tate 😅
@@themacocko6311better than Elliott Page
The younger generation want instant gratification, they don't want to work hard to achieve something. Even Daniel in this video only did 4 days work and was ready to pack it in. A good teacher/guide is needed to justify the hard work like Mr Miyagi does here.
But in reality the dude just wanted someone to remodel his home for free.
This moment of the film was brilliant the way mr miyagi teach Daniel karate was so lovely.
Not only was he teaching Technique, but also muscle memory. Remember he even showed him, the exact movements he wanted. This was a condensed form of the Miyagi-do style taught to him by his father and his father. But time being very short, he had to get the form right and burned in extremely fast. In training there is no free lunch, you have to put the work in, to get the results out
If he didn't intrinsically know the moves and had to be retaught and literally physically guided in order to do the moves correctly, then the whole training was absolutely pointless anyway- all that training and he still wants to quickly windmill his arms with poor technique.
It would have had the same effect if he had just shown him the little sweeping moves here for the first time.
@@ots1634 , what I'm saying, is the work, Miyagi had Daniel doing, he had him do according to a set motion. He couldn't just teach him the basics without the motions (And teaching him the way Miyagi had been taught would have taken years), so each day he had him doing a set thing, to burn in the memory of the motion. If Daniel did it correctly, he'd have the motion set to memory, hence Miyagi would occasionally correct him. Except painting the house, by then Daniel know what to do from up/down, only side to side. When he showed him what the motions were for, then he had the experience from the work, though he didn't know. my niece and nephew were in Karate/Tae Quan do (sorry if spelling is wrong). they were in it for years and got to green when they decided to not do it anymore. Miyagi put those years of work and practice into a day or two each. Once Daniel had the basic Movements, he could then implement the serious training. But like a strong house, the foundation needs to be equally strong. Miyagi created that strong foundation in that week of hard work
...lovely...and loving...as a teacher and father...
Got a load of free labor too
"Come back tomorrow." The best scene closing line ever.
Even though Mr. Miyagi is sadly passed on in the Cobra Kai universe and in real life he still lives in my heart. His teachings are amazing.
Focus Daniel san
What role would he have if he were still alive?
@@NinjaBuddha503same
in fact, one could argue that mr miyagi is the most important character in cobra kai due to his absence
@@mrscsi6472Exactly for being dead already he has a lot of references and relevance to the story even indirectly at times
“Look eye! Always look eye!”
Such a small line, but one I really really enjoy for some reason.
I prefer the version I learned from TMNT - never lower your eyes, to an enemy.
And, something you never do in martial arts. You always watch the shoulders as a general point of focus, never the eyes.
@@iatsd I was trained to watch the sternum as a primary focal point.
Yeah, it was a straight rip from a bruce Lee movie...
One of the best scenes in cinematic history
Realize how there's no shaky camera or over the top music playing. That's because what you see here is actual talent.
Don't forget lense flares, rapid zooms, camera arcs and explosions.
Camera shake has to be among the worst movie making techniques.
@@bucky5869 Or never have the sun shine. It seems like everything has a permanent shade of darkness, even when it's supposed to be bright. Like a dystopia or something, particularly in action shows.
One of the most intimate and profound scenes in cinema history.
Mr. Miyagi is one of the greatest characters of all time. This scene was epic and I remember being around 5-6 years old in the movie theater going “wow” it completely blew me away. RIP the great Pat Morita. I love the cobra cai series but it just don’t feel the same without the greatest teacher in the world lol
@greg2380NY makes me wonder.if daniel never confronted miyagi, how long would miyagi waited to,test daniel?
@@paulsmith9192I thought of that too. But my guess is, once he "ditched" teaching Daniel to go fishing & left a note of instructions, he felt that'd be the last straw for Daniel
@@Agent.Wadsworth He was probably also wanting to see if Daniel would actually do the work without him being there to keep an eye on things. When Daniel ended up nearly getting the whole house painted by the time he got back, he knew Daniel would take the rest of the training seriously.
He was a wonderful teacher Mr Miyagi taught his student Daniel well using muscle memory techniques and good defence not the vicious way John Kreese taught his Cobra Kai students.
It's amazing that Pat Morita was typecast as a comedian and almost didn't make the role. It would never have been this iconic were it not for hit great acting skills.
I love how at 1:11 Mr. Miyagi gave Daniel that shut up and show me what you’ve learned moment.
“SHOW!”
Sounds a bit like Johnny doesnt it lol
I love how Mr.MiyAgi said eye always look eye
@@zendevil6965 I thought he said “SHUT UP!”
@@TheMan-je5xq"QUIET!"
I wonder if the producer & director thought they just might have one of the most iconic scenes in movie history here. Never gets old
I was 10 years old when I saw this movie in the theaters. It was the first time I had ever seen the audience get involved with cheering and clapping. It was truly epic.
The heart and soul of Martial Arts summed up in one simple scene. Just brilliant.
a great lesson given by a great master.
trained muscular memory and discipline for days, he corrects posture for each move, shows when to use each move, proves that daniel can already combine all of them instantly. without even thinking.
he trained him without him noticing. martial arts isn't about fighting. it's about mental fortitude and discipline. and the most important clue of all. look eyes. always look eyes.
I was 9 in 1984. I rewound this scene over and over with my VCR. God I miss those days.
I was 9 too😂
@@sowingandreaping7871 wasnt born untill 1985
You can tell in Cobra Kai how much Daniel matured, and by this stage in his training/learning he understood that Martial Arts have teachings in everything you do day-to-day.
And one Interesting Trivia, In Gekiranger(Super Sentai), the master of the Rangers, is Master Shafu, a Big Cat, his Motto is "There is training in one's livelihood" where he uses day to day movements, for martial arts training, take a Guess Which Martial Arts Master, Master Shafu is inspired by....
He has as a character come a long way. I watched Season 1-4 of Cobra Kai and stopped. I personally thought the story got to ridiculous. Having just read the recap on Wikipedia for Season 5 it looked even worse. It is very difficult for successful shows like that to continue writing and coming up with new ideas. I'm personally not interested anymore even if there is a season 6.
@@lfskyden That was one of my favorite parts of Gekiranger. I really need to watch that show again.
@@lfskyden at first I mis-read that as "Gekiganger" (as in Gekiganger III), a much different reference...
Cobra Kai sucks. It's not canon to me. It's cringe.
Mr. Miyagi knew that Daniel was years behind the Cobra Kai students so he had to give Daniel years' worth of muscle memory. Blocking has to be a reflex. Everything in Miyagi-do comes off the blocks; it's a countering style of Karate.
Excellent point
He put Daniel into Ultra Instinct mode.
So happy that the legend Miyagi continues to be relevant in 2022
this entire scene has lived rent free in my memory for years.
I love how much reverence and respect Cobra Kai shows Mr Miyagi and Miyagi-do. I need to rewatch the whole movie series again.
Always look eye, the best part of this training. It's called respect.
While it isn't shown here, the one bit I always liked about this scene was the look of "What just happened?" on Danny's face after Mr. Miyagi puts him through his paces.
Muscle memory is a valuable thing
That last flurry by Miyagi really put this scene over the top.
@Kevin Hart he had to go slow to make sure daniel understood what he needed to get
@kevinhart46 He is teaching a new student, you simpleton. Why would he use fast, full force punches? Clearly you know nothing about how to teach anyone anything.
@kevinhart46 I suggest you watch the entire movie to better understand why this is one of the best scenes ever in cinema. When you get older, you'll learn that superficial flashiness is not a substitute for good characterization and storytelling.
Dang, don't we all wish we had someone like mister Miyagi to train us like he was training this young man.
This scene is the definition of movie magic! Daniel and Myagi's friendship and bond is one of the best in cinematic history.
This is the best scene of the whole franchise.
This scene made every movie and series episode happen.
Best scene was the drunk scene.
this scene was so iconic - the moment the penny dropped and the film went to the next level!
Miyagi: Stroke up, stroke down.
Daniel: Am I doing it right Mr Miyagi?
Miyagi: Hai, Daniel san.
Stop being weird to this masterpiece
Miyagi (god form); is it in yet daniel san @SimonPetersen31
Man your clearly fatherless
Bruh, just not
Still tear up on this scene 30 years later ❤
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Now 40 years later.
0:53 my mom couldn't move her arm and I did this as a joke and I ended up fixing it 💀💀💀
How does that even work?
@@Coach_Shinerclap takes attention, rubbing hands warms them up and then you do what each physiotherapist does :D
I’m convinced the spirit of God was present when this scene was shot. It’s very powerful
To me it represents the struggles we go through in life. Sometimes we foolishly think God has forsaken us because we go through trials. Trials and tribulations build character. Not having a lot of money shows you how to manage money to survive. It also shows you how to be grateful for what you have. You go through things, then we you get more or into a position of responsibility you can display the skills you learned when not having a lot. I was broke before, now I have money and then a recession hits. Instead of panic, I can rely on “sand the floor”. This scene is powerful on many levels. Also shows genuine love. I’ll discipline you even though it’ll hurt now, because I know you’ll benefit from it later. I could go on and on.
God would have wiped out the continuity problem and blessed the film's editors with eyes that work..
@@brianjackson3031 Jesus is Lord.
@@GodofMMA23 yes HE is amen
Just when you thought there was no more credit stealing for religious idiots to go for... 🙄
We all need a Miyagi in our lives! ❤
Master Po and Master Kan were previous examples.
I'll always remember that scene. It is indeed a Classic.😎👍🏾
Cobra Kai hits the same balance this film showed so well, between corny (but effective) meoldrama and character interactions that can surprise us, as in this scene.
It's a new school link to the old school. These young kids only have points of reference. They don't have the real experience in the thrill of watching it like we did. They get the Composites of what we saw with our own eyes. I love these movies.
Everytime Cobrai Kai felt like it was becoming a daytime soap, they bring up Miyagi and Im crying like a housewife watching a daytime soap
@@asianmalaysian I do think they are doing way too much bs with the kids. Their arc is starting to look like a WWE storyline the way they keep switching sides.
@@alanfrost75 That's called character development. The show is constantly flip flopping the idea that there's no "all good" or "all bad" with a vast majority of the characters and that's one of the things it does best. And keep in mind as somebody who does watch wrestling, yes they change sides but typically they move on from one story to another when they do so. This show is all one coherent continuation to the original movies with new characters for a modern experience. "Too much" with the kids is exactly the point. It's the only way you can bring back the old characters and give them the justice and character development. The kids are why they were able to take a cartoony villain like Kreese and make him human. They're why a lot of the old characters became more human and not so one-note. And one of the key points of the show is opposing styles and ideas of karate and it's now finding a balance between both styles and ideas. Can't do that without having the kids first starting in one dojo and then ending up in another. And the actors for the kids are phenomenal. Especially the ones for Miguel and Hawk. And they're 2 of the most prominent examples of them experiencing both dojo's and are two of the best fighters in the show because of it. This whole show relies on humans with flaws going through the motions as they happen and learning from it, with the old characters to add onto.
When you don't realize a simple everyday activity is teaching you martial arts..one of my alltime favorites..
Am I the only one who cacks himself laughing when he keeps going to the floor and Miyagi sighs just get more emphatic? Creases me up.
Best scene ever.
Full of wholesome tuition, passing of ancient flame to a new student and an amazing bonding experience. Historic.
I laugh as well, its likei daniel son wants to give Mr. Miyagi a blow*** , its PG rating so yeah, its funny
Look who's cacking
Cacks? Creases?
I love how he taught him that excellence in one thing leads to excellence in all things. You think your painting a garage, no your also learning to fight!
I saw this movie as an insecure soul-searching little boy in the eighties. It was like a religious experience. I still practice martial arts today and keep coming back to this movie.
Mr. Miyagi is one of those guys who you wish was a real person. A genuine, caring guy that you seek out and talk to in times of trouble. Atticus Finch is another guy, probably the greatest fictional character that you wish was your neighbour.
My dad absolutely loves this movie... I remember when I was growing up in the 90's, when I would do something wrong he would say "ta-ta-ta-tada". (1:18)
I know it's only a movie, but "Mr. Pat Morita" was so much like my Grandfather... Behind everything my Grandfather said and did their was always a lesson and purpose to be learned! How I miss him so!
Strength through humility, patience, and discipline. My grandfather always practiced what he preached through his actions and his words. Miss the old man. Small in stature but strong in Spirit.
It is difficult to imagine the movie with out Pat Morita. He was a beautiful funny man. RIP
From a technical standpoint, the fine tuning here in this video was backed up by the muscle memory from doing the same repetitive motion over and over again. If this was done in real life, not only would Daniel never forget it, he would also have the muscle behind it to perform the actions in the upcoming fight(s).
3:22 This is where the fun begins 🙏🏽
The whole scene is fun
(Playing on arcade)
“READY! FIGHT!”
Great use of volume in the audio in this scene -- so calm and quiet during the "show me wax on, wax off" part, so that when Mr. Miyagi suddenly yells and starts throwing punches, it catches the viewer by surprise just like he was catching Daniel-san by surprise.
I expect the vast majority of us would have loved to have had a teacher/mentor like Mr. Miyagi.
My sister burnt me out on this movie, but now I dig Cobra Kai. Everything ties in nicely.
You had Kk1, Kk2, Kk3. EVEN NKK...
One of the great things about that entire training sequence is that it mirrors actual Karate training, which is based in repetition of movement until muscle memory is achieved so that action becomes spontaneous. That's exactly what happens here. Miyagi doesn't just instruct Daniel to do a task, but is specific in each movement for each job so that he performs the same action over and over again until it becomes second-nature.
There's some artistic licence involved, clearly, but the basic principle is solid.
Watching this now, I can really appreciate what a genius actor Pat Morita was. Simply perfect.
This has to be one of the best personal epiphany moments in film. Thank you 80s!
One of the best examples of show not tell in a film.
Is it just me, or does Daniel use exactly zero of these moves in the competition?
not just you 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He doesn't use them in Part III either
Man. The way his voice cracks on that last _"always look eye"_ 😢 Is it even acting anymore when you nail it this damn good?!
PAT was a genius actor,he did comedy real well,hell, he did everything well i liked him in DESERT HEAT,incredible man with sense of humor,GOD REST HIM
Daniel sure got some quick hands. He actually did pretty well on his first try.
One of the best scenes ever in Hollywood history! RIP Pat we love you!👍
Man, I remember when Mr Myagi jumped over that fence to save Daniel from those punks. That was some great cinema there. One of my best childhood memories. The eighties were a fantastic time for movies.
I love this, he thinks his time was being wasted but Miyagi shows him how much he was learning in his hard labour. This teaches faith. And Miyagi is a genius teacher.
Absolutely one of the best films for its time.. Back in the 80’s, there was no short of bullies. Everyone lifted weights or was in good shape, it as a status, no like today. Long Live the 80’s, just a great era.
Most people either ran from bullies or got a sock full of quarters or some other creative solution. Teachers wouldn't help and mostly parents felt you should solve your own problems. Weigh lifting wasn't that popular among teens though.
When you are around the same age as the actor playing Daniel in the movie, seeing this after the decades makes you realize just how quickly time flies. Wow!
Such a great scene. Excellent writing, excellent command of the entire thing by Morita. Also... notice the fairly minimal amount of CUTS. Yes, this is something you won't see in almost any modern film because directors are WAAAYYY too busy implementing everything BUT allowing performances, sets, lighting, shots, and even *pauses*... ...to remain organic.
I'm trying to get some of that back with my work on "Diamond Dragons". But trust me when I say that no one except no one will ever see this comment.
🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨
I will remember the name 'Diamond Dragons.' Market it well, and when I see it again, I'll remember what you've said here, and I'll tell my friends about it.
Thank you for everything Miyagi sensei
R.I.P.
When he says “SHOW!” still feels it going up my spine since I watched it in 1984
One of the best scenes in any movie ever and we learned more about being a Jedi than we ever did from Yoda.
Good point, Yoda was never actually as helpful, he was more 'cryptic and vague'.
i love the moment when he says "look eye. always look eye" its both saying that daniel should always have eye contakt to be aware of his opponent but also being equel to Miyagi.
The last point may not fly in some japanse dojos where the master is someone to be if not almost feared, then certainly someone above you.
It's inauthentic though, to be honest. I think this is the movie that started this particular idea, too. In Japan or Okinawa it's perfectly acceptable to look downward while bowing.
Yeah that wouldn't fly in Taekwondo for example. Looking at someone while you bow is a sign of disrespect because it means you don't trust them.
@@taekwondotime as it should be
is more a Bruce Lee reference
Mike Tyson said he only looks at the shoulders so he can see where the punches are coming from
"Come back tomorrow." You've still got that final small bit of painting to finish on the house.
Actually? Mr Miagi trained him right doing this kind of training.
I LOVE Mr Miyagi’s yelling when he throws his punches 😆😆😆😆😆😆

"You never take your eyes off your opponent. even when bowing!"
I've told my kids that when I have them do something, there's a reason behind it they may not yet comprehend. When they didn't understand what I meant, I showed them this scene.
2:52 IS FUNNY HOW MR MIYAGI IS TRYING TO HIT DANIEL AND THEN DANIEL IS DEFENDING HIMSLEF😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m gonna tell my kids in the future that this was how I played outside
0:20 why is he cussin so much😂
Because he's a hothead
He's from Jersey.
I remember watching this movie while we were taking a lunch break in summer camp when I was in hapkido. I'd actually been having trouble with my blocks because of my neuromuscular stuff. But seeing this, I went to the back of the mat, and I practiced. And my teacher, who we called sensei in spite of it being a Korean art, stood up and followed me, and he put me through my paces with it, because in that moment I understood. To this day I treasure that moment of understanding.
Powerful scene
Crazy that Pat Morita didn't win oscar for this
He didn't win an Oscar, but he will always be remembered for this role. That's much more important, I think.
@@williamschroeder3070Amen! Glitz, glamor, and awards doesn't mean anything worthy of value. It's the impact you leave in this world that has extreme importance. ❤😊
Who needs a damn Oscar when his role can't be replaced by anyone else due to how natural his character is?
@@williamschroeder3070 you're right
@@BearAndBunny0605 you're right yes
This is one of the best scenes ever filmed. So powerful.
The tone of the movie and Miagi as well, was lighthearted and casual. Miagi's intensity and the complete lack of musical score, the silence, adds to completely flip this movie. Miagi is now in charge and a huge authority figure and we realize we don't know this guy at all
Love their chemistry that bond that never could never break
Johnny Classic="QUIET!" Miyagi Classic="SHUT UP!" No bad student, only bad teacher Daniel-San!
There's a video out there talking about how Miyagi and Johnny are very similar.
This is such an iconic scene in such an epic movie. I love it
I went to see this the week it first hit theatres. A whole group of siblings, cousins and friends, all mid-teens, had a fantastic time. This scene, we all agreed, wasn't a surprise -- it is easy to project the real reasons behind all the chores, of course -- but it it WAS a delight, because it was done so well, so satisfyingly, and above all, so patiently -- there's no rush to the payoff as seems to be in so much action entertainment since then. It is legendary, for many good reasons. I will never forget seeing it that night.
