A new twist on Chinese knockoffs. It's bad enough that China is kicking our collective backside in the global economy, but now some Beijing bullies are messing with Will Smith's son Jaden in this remake of The Karate Kid! Luckily, Jackie Chan (in the Pat Morita role) is there to save America, or something. Did we really need this? No. But does anybody need counterfeits of garish Louis Vuitton bags? Another big no. And yet people buy them. Who are we to judge?

Let us know in the comments section if the physical comedy genius of Jackie Chan will make this worth a look in June of 2010. Or does this trailer suddenly make you miss Ralph Macchio?
