Is everybody forgetting Karate Kid 3? I see that on the trending board all the time, so it must be great.

reply

There was a love interest

reply

I don't remember one. Early on, the girl in the store across the street put him in the friend zone and he was fine with that. Unless you're talking about Kreese and Silver.

reply

No, the girl across the street. She said she was moving away. Daniel-san asked, "Because of me?" and she replied with the affirmative. Then again, it wasn't like Daniel and Ally were having sex in the first movie. They didn't kiss toward the end of the movie. And when the next movie started, Daniel tells his mother how she met some guy in college or something, but he didn't seemed bothered.

Now the second one was a bit different.

reply

1) The girl was supposed to be a love interest bur she friendzoned him at Ralph Macchio's request. He felt uncomfortable having her be his love interest since he was 27 and Robin Lively was only 16.
2) While good the movie is far from great.
3) The reason it keeps appearing on the trend is one guy with multiple accounts talking to himself like Norman Bates and Mother.

1917 has a romantic scene when he met a woman with a baby.

reply

Really? I saw no romance there, just people helping people.

reply

Yes, really. He wanted to settle down there making a family together with her.

reply

Aww, so sweet you interpreted it that way. πŸ’˜πŸ’˜πŸ’˜

reply

But then he remembered his duty and proceed to leave her and the baby. I teared up a little. So patriotic, he was.

The storyline of Psycho wouldn't have worked without a love interest.
