The Karate Kid 1984 

From losing his wife and son to robbery and then to tournament fighting. He really had a hard life.

He on that drink and feeling good but sad at the same time. Damn

This is so heartbreaking because he gets drunk and when daniel reads a paper that his wife and child died during childbirth. You feel sorry for Mr. Miyagi.

Every time I had a problem in life when I was much younger. I always wondered what Mr Miyagi would do in my shoes.

To think they thought about cutting this scene from the movie. It was a epic part of the story 💯

If that was Mr. Miyagi's wife seen at 2:26, it seems like he was deciding to let it go about Yukie at that point after running away to the states to move and live in.

This was the European version of the karate kid 1 UK 🇬🇧📀

In real life, pat morita was in an internment camp with his family during WW2.

4:56...Cap still on whiskey bottle

When Daniel chooses the car Mr Miyagi already knew wich one he liked the most and put the dog tags on the key to that car before Daniel chose .. A silent heartfelt recognition that still brings a tear to my eye .. They dont make movies like this anymore

Miyagi such a great guy. Sad he couldn't move on and get remarried.

Originally In Cobra Kai johnny was going say the line again to aliy And that yeah as true friends

If Daniel didn't come over, I wonder if Mr. Miyagi was going to drink that glass of alcohol himself instead of giving it to Daniel at 3:07 where someone would have to drink it since it's not like the picture of Mr. Miyagi's wife would have drank it. However, I'm guessing Daniel is still underage to drink alcohol but Mr. Miyagi only doesn't know that since he's completely drunk here. Daniel is probably not used to alcohol at all since he choked from it but, he started loving to drink it as seen in season 3 of Cobra Kai.

Miyagi represents the post-war rehabilitation of the Japanese, from vicious war criminals to honourable examples of healthy modernity - an industrious man who strives forward without forgetting his heritage. It's interesting that Kreese's Vietnam veteran character is almost a binary opposite - cruel and uncivilised with a tendency to keep others down for his own selfish ends. I guess that the Japanese were seen as valuable in the new technocratic order of consumerism (the electronics industry being dominated by Japan by the early '80s) whereas the war in Vietnam was to be disowned by the establishment and seen as an outrage to be blamed on the immorality of the fighting men. Interestingly, The Karate Kid was slightly out of step as the revisionist angle was gaining momentum in popular culture - one that sought to memorialise Vietnam veterans as victims, rather than beasts (from First Blood through to Magnum PI via many other examples). Just my take...

Drink drink
