Daniel vs. Mike Barnes Fight Scene - The Karate Kid Part III (1989)

Best thing Miyagi said: It's OK to lose to Opponent Must not lose to FEAR 💯👊

[@Sirsamuel79]

@@sneescampers that's pretty much what Miyagi said

[@GisherJohn24]

I always wished in this final scene, they'd show flash backs of Daniel unleashing on Johnny, his friends and The Chozen in one clip and then finally remembering all the killer moves he learned of the past and then utterly destroying Barnes. It just needed more. Climax needs to be a true Climax. There was so much they could have done. It's like Daniel forgot everything he learned. Come on Daniel! Avildsen himself said 3 is bad. He rushed it, and hated the script. It was more for the money and to get it out because it was due for a sequel.

The ONLY missing element in the Cobra Kai franchise is Mr. Miyagi. Even so, the writers have done an INCREDIBLE job of honoring the character!

[@Zurround]

I posted on other threads that if the actor was alive it would STILL be better for his character to be dead from a story standpoint both because its realistic (the character was older than the actor I think) and also because dealing with the loss of his mentor is a great part of Daniel's character development. If the actor was still alive then dreams, flashbacks or hallucinations etc could be used for him. Similar to how "Koba" died in the 2nd of the new Planet of the Apes movies and still appeared several times in the 3rd movie (or Obi Wan in Star Wars).

[@marvthedog1972]

honestly i am glad that Mr. Miyagi is not a part of the Cobra Kai series. It shows that life moves on and that we suffer losses. It would be too much if an adult Daniel always runs to him for advice. He has to find his own way now.

[@Neomac316]

I'd really love to see a scene where Johnny visits Miyagi's grave, thanking him for saving his life at the start of Karate Kid 2. I think its over due.

"It´s okay lose to an opponent, must not to lose to fear. You stay in focus. Daniel-san, your best karate still inside. Now time let out". Always gets me. A life lesson for us all.

[@jasonmcgrath1529]

Mr. Miyagi's shout is meant to yank Daniel out of despair. It made him a receptive student. The bow he gives his teacher is a thank you. Daniel does this particular kata to distract Barnes. His final position is a trap, patiently waiting for any attack. Barnes is forced to come in blindly, and Daniel simply flips him. I find this ending fits with the others. When Daniel is forced past his fears, the way to defeat his opponent becomes simple. Miyagi saying that he must not lose to fear is an understatement. The kata is really a centering technique, a gathering of all focus, energy, and willpower. They think he's crazy, but he's just calm. Great stuff.

So He fought Chosen to Death, in Okinawa, and then went back home, and chickened out against a guy that chosen could destroy in a heartbeat? That’s what I hated about this movie. You’d think after having fought for his life in Okinawa, against a true Karate master he’d go on the third one to take on a challenge where the stakes are higher, with a more dramatic arc, but fighting in the All Valley championship again… and with no fighting evolution after the experiences of the first 2. What a disappointment. I can’t stress enough how much I hated this movie. Pat Morita and Ralp Macchio were great, but the writing…. Absolutely lazy.

Ali's conclusion with Daniel might not have been good, but at least that had a conclusion as to what came out of it. Jessica ultimately friend-zoned Daniel, but again, there was a conclusion. We don't see what happened with Daniel and Kumiko. Did they just break up because he had to go back to the States? Did Chozen steal her from Daniel? Did Kumiko die? I'm not exactly the biggest guy on romance, but you need to conclude your stories, and Daniel & Kumiko made for a nice couple. One I surprisingly thought was better than Daniel & Ali.
