For Your Consideration: Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Breakfast Club, and Over the Top all deserve the Karate Kid Legends treatment
Why should The Karate Kid be the only 1980s teen classic to get a full-scale revival? We have three other all-timers from the genre we'd like to nominate for similar treatment: Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Breakfast Club, and Over the Top
Karate Kid: Legends is a movie with a mission — to expand the long legacy of The Karate Kid back onto the big screen after five previous installments, and the fan-favorite Cobra Kai TV show. But why should such a thing be kept back for Daniel-San and his cohorts, when there’s literally a decade of movies aimed at kids from the 1980s that are primed for revival and rediscovery by the now middle-aged faithful? For your consideration, friends: three more ‘80s cinematic classics that someone should rewatch and reboot as quickly as commercially possible.
This is For Your Consideration, in which we try to come to terms with the inescapable fact that, honestly, there’s too much out there to have time to watch, read, or hear everything — by making some suggestions about things that you might have overlooked but would enjoy, anyway. Think of it
