Yea Forums told me this show was amazing, what gives?
Why is Ralph Macchio's acting so fucking bad? He has worked consistently since 1980, not like he's out of practice or something.

My biggest complaints are the nonsensical scenes. In season 2, everyone just starts fighting in school and it's screams "This is a movie"
It just lacks any sort of grounding. The Karate kid was pretty grounded. Daniel got his ass beat by kids that took karate, until he trained enough to beat him at a tournament. In cobra Kai, kids are just casually having fights that looks clearly rehearsed.
Christian Parker
The show is pretty quick and dirty in general like recent Clint Eastwood movies. Everything scene feels like an elevator pitch.

Johnny's lack of knowledge of the internet really makes no sense. "What's... a facebook?" was stupid enough but he literally doesn't know shit about the internet? Fuck out of here.
Connor Miller
I know fucking boomers you can only use facebook on their phones, you put them in front of a computer or on the phone's browser and they can't find a way to do anything on the internet if their life depended on it
Fuck off. It's a good escape binge watch. Yeah it has its problems but those can be overlooked for just how fun it is. Plus I want to plow Daniels daughter.
I like it and I’ve also got shit taste so suck my dick :)
Ian Bell
Ralph Macchio is an actual boomer though, so he should be approaching the character from that perspective. Maybe some boomers really are that out of touch.
>Johnny's lack of knowledge of the internet really makes no sense. He drank his cares away and became a hermit. I'm an IT pro and honestly I can't tell you anything about tinder or instagram because I've never used it....its a kiddie thing in my mind. I have only one app on my smartphone and its because I need it for work. its pretty easy to shut out new tech if you have no interest in it.

The same reason the original Karate Kid gets a pass.
Nothing The Karate Kid did was particularly special or innovative at the time (even for its time it was painfully predictable) beyond the universally lovable story and heart which Cobra Kai manages to also deliver. I'd even argue Cobra Kai's lightly meta approach to capturing the heart of Karate Kid makes it marginally more interesting than the original Karate Kid itself.
I OVERLY LIKE «COBRA KAI»; DESPITE THE OCCASIONAL FLASH OF PERVERSION, IN GENERAL, IT IS A WHOLESOME TELEVISION PROGRAM WITH A GOOD MESSAGE, WITH ACTUAL CHARACTERS WITH PERSONALITIES.
I WISH THAT MORE TELEVISION PROGRAMS WERE LIKE «COBRA KAI»; ZOOMERS NEED MORE OF THIS KIND OF ENTERTAINMENT.
THE SCENE IN WHICH MARY MOUSER'S CHARACTER, AND TANNER BUCHANAN'S CHARACTER DEFEND «DIMITRI» IN THE MALL AGAINST THE GANG OF RUFFIANS TRIGGERED IN ME A NOSTALGIC FLASHBACK OF «MIGHTY MORPHIN' POWER RANGERS».
IT IS NO SURPRISE, BUT, RATHER, AN EXPECTED GIVEN, THAT A SINCERE, EARNEST, BEAUTIFUL, WORK OF METAMODERN SPIRIT, LIKE «COBRA KAI», WOULD BE DERIDED BY THE HYPERMODERN VVLGVS WITH THEIR «YIKES», AND «CRINGES».
I was annoyed when Hawk and that Dork ex-friend of his was salivating about Dr. Who being a female. But the look on that dicks face when he realized he dated a thot was priceless
Isaac Perry
i know, right. his lips looks so yummy

BACK IN THE GAME, BREAKING HEARTS AGAIN YOU BETTER WATCH OUT, COS I'M BACK IN THE GAME
i just like it because it has that tone and feel of an 80s movie the production values are kinda shit and it definitely looks like a show made for youtube but its not unwatchable I dont get why fags always have such a hateboner for it in these threads, its a good show

>impossibly good this is a red flag
Asher Ward
What the fuck are you talking about man? I'm not into dudes. Don't assume everyone is down with the Satanic Homo agenda
William Lee
It's schlock but it's fun schlock with nostalgia. The new chick is hot as fuck too. Surprised that Daniel's wife is actually super reasonable and likeable.
If you're expecting anything besides pandering and cheesy 80's shit you're retarded.
Jeremiah Baker
It’s fun. And like tv said, it’s the closest we’ll get to real life anime.
Jackson Hill
I'm not some tinfoiler but the way this show was talked about here when it first came out seemed so astroturfed. Every post was about how it's so epic and anti-sjw. It really seemed like some marketing exec thought they could get some "Yea Forums audience"
Samuel Watson
But you KNOW of twitter and instagram. Johnny just acted like he's never heard the word facebook uttered in his entire life. even though at one point facebook was the biggest shit ever. It's one thing to have him say something like "You know I've never actually used facebook before" It's another to flat out say "What is a facebook" as if he has no knowledge at all of it's existence or of what it could possible be. It's stupid.
Jaxson Sullivan
he was never good, on the other hand, Zabka is the man

>Yea Forums told me this show was amazing, what gives? Though S01 was alright. Haven't seen S02 since S01 ended in a retarded way that was only retarded because they wanted a S02, and what I've seen from S02, just through osmosis so far, has been retarded as well.
