"The Karate Kid": The Swede
> Posted by Andrew Tran on February 19, 2008 12:02 PM

There's something about "The Karate Kid" that brings back fond memories for my generation. (Sweep the leg!) That might be why there are so many "swedes" of it online. This one's my favorite because it recognizes the importance of the montage training scenes that the other videos neglect. Also, the ending, which isn't exactly faithful to the real movie, but is totally worth waiting six minutes for.

Check back every day until "Be Kind Rewind" opens on Friday for more "sweded" videos and Q&As with their creators.
