Hi uvat
Only one of the awesome quotes from the original film. I think someone needs to head to the Video Store to watch them! ; )

RIP Pat Morita. No matter how good this movie is, it will never beat the classic. It’s like redoing Dirty Dancing. It just feels… wrong!

Why is the quote “Miyagi have hope for you” listed as a movie?
Posted on 22 July, 2010 at 12:01 pm by Clare Sandford
Good spot – we’ll just edit that (so much for my semi-clever quote)

XBLA gets the Summer of Arcade, a barrage of games with critically acclaimed titles like Limbo.
PSN gets discounts on a bunch of old/mediocre games and a movie remake promotion.
Clare Sandford, as European Product Manager, I’m hoping you can make a difference. Please take note of what the competition is offering and compare it to what is being offered in your post. I’m hoping you can see who is offering the better content and will resolve to swiftly redress the imbalance.

Why does it feel like all films released these days are just remakes? and some are worse than the original (although I did like war of the worlds).

i love final fight double impact and don’t feel bad that I paid £7.99 for it when it’s £3.99 in this promotion. certainly it’s got more hours of play from me than most full price modern games have this year (such as the below average tedious war for cybertron and the massively overrated dull glitchy red dead redemption)

You know, in the US they gave away Rag Doll Kung Fu once (it was a week long promotion). That´s how I got it. Didn´t like the game though but it was a much better promotion.
