History Funny / TheKarateKid

!''Film/TheKarateKid1984''
* When Daniel is running from Johnny after turning a hose on him, he runs into the street while still wearing his shower costume, and causes a four car accident.
* When Daniel asks Miyagi about his skill at karate, he asks what kind of belt he has. Miyagi's reply: "[[MathematiciansAnswer Canvas]]. You like? JC Penney, $3.98!"
-->'''Miyagi''': In Okinawa, belt mean no need rope hold up pants!
* During the WaxOnWaxOff scene, Daniel takes note of just how many vehicles are in Miyagi's front yard.
-->'''Daniel''': Hey, where'd all these cars come from?\\
'''Miyagi''': Detroit!
* Watching Miyagi show Daniel "Wax on, Wax off" is pretty funny, since the audience understands what's going on (especially on a second viewing) before he does.
* Miyagi is doing his "catch the fly with the chopsticks" bit, and Daniel walks in.
-->'''Daniel''': What are you doing?
-->'''Miyagi''': Man who catch fly with chopsticks, accomplish ''anything!''
-->'''Daniel''': May I try? ''(almost immediately catches the fly)'' Look! Mr. Miyagi! I did it!
-->'''Miyagi''': ''([[NotSoAboveItAll throws his chopsticks down in disgust]])'' You beginner luck!
* This moment:
-->'''Daniel''': But when am I gonna learn how to punch?
-->'''Miyagi''' ''(rocking the boat)'': Learn how punch when learn how keep dry!
-->'''Daniel''': ''(falls out of boat, yelps)''
-->'''Miyagi''' ''(laughing uproariously)'' Oh-ho, Daniel-san, you all wet behind ear! ''(Continues laughing, leaning back and nearly falling out of the boat)''
* Miyagi instructs Daniel on how to learn the essentials of balance in martial arts, while on a fishing boat:
-->'''Miyagi''': Now, stand to bow!
-->([[LiteralMinded Daniel bows to Miyagi]])
-->'''Miyagi''': No! [[JapanesePoliteness Not bow!]] (points to the front of the boat) ''BOW!''
* When Miyagi requests the Cobra Kai leave Daniel alone to train for the All-Valley Karate Championships:
-->'''Kreese''': All right, no one touches the ''primadonna'' until the tournament. Is that understood?
* In the first film, the Cobras and Daniel have a truce established until the tournament. However, Daniel attempts to stick it to the Cobras by asking a teacher to repeat for them what is implied to be a dry, boring lecture. This backfires when the Cobras all promptly scatter away to class, leaving Daniel to [[HoistByHisOwnPetard listen to it alone.]]
* Miyagi finally gives Daniel some offense training and uses himself as a target.
-->'''Miyagi:''' Now punch hard. Hya! ''(Daniel punches him)'' What's the matter, you some kind of girl or something? Punch! Drive a punch! Not just arm! Whole body! Hip, leg, drive a punch! Make kiai! Hya! Hya! Give you power! Now try punch! Yosh!
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(punches)'' Hya!
-->'''Miyagi:''' Punch some more! Yosh!
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(punches)'' Hya!
-->'''Miyagi:''' Punch some more! Yosh!
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(punches)'' Hya!
-->'''Miyagi:''' Yosh!
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(punches)'' Hya!
-->'''Miyagi:''' Very good, Daniel-san! Yosh!
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(punches)'' Hya!
-->'''Miyagi:''' Yosh!
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(punches)'' Hya! Hey, pretty good, huh? Hya! ''(punches again while moving around)''
-->'''Miyagi:''' Hey, oi, oi...
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(moves around and punches)'' Look at this, Mr. Miyagi! Hey hey hey! Hya!
-->'''Miyagi:''' Matte, matte. ''(Daniel keeps hitting him)'' Wait wait. Daniel-san! ''(Daniel keeps hitting him)'' Wait, chotto chotto!
-->'''Daniel:''' ''(still punching Miyagi)'' What do you think, Mr. Miyagi? Huh?
-->'''Miyagi:''' ''(had enough and floors Daniel)'' HYA! TA! I tell you what Miyagi think! I think you dance around too much! I think you talk too much! I think you no concentrate enough!
* The part where Miyagi, Daniel and Ali trick a tournament official into letting her be on the sidelines so she could translate Miyagi's instructions.
--> '''Official:''' Hold it, hold it! Only teachers and students on the competition floor, I'm sorry.
--> '''Daniel:''' Oh, well he doesn't speak English and I can't understand his instruction without her. She's, she's his, uh, translator.
--> '''Miyagi:''' ''(speaks Japanese gibberish)''
--> '''Official:''' What'd he say?
--> '''Ali:''' He said you remind him of an uncle he has back in Tokyo.
--> '''Official:''' (smiles) I guess it's okay.
--> '''Miyagi:''' ''(speaks more Japanese gibberish)''
--> '''Official:''' What?
--> '''Ali:''' He says you're very kind.
--> '''Official:''' Oh, thank you.
--> '''Miyagi:''' Welcome.
--> '''Official:''' ''(looks bewildered)''
* Early in the tournament, while scouting the very flashy Darryl Vidal, Johnny can be seen [[FunnyBackgroundEvent in the background]] saying "He's not that good" to Kreese.
* Tommy's freakout in the Tournament when Daniel beats him, as he left himself wide open to attack, is hilarious.
* Bobby Brown's strange resemblance to Luke Skywalker. For added bonus, he even SOUNDS LIKE HIM WHINING when Kreese orders him to injure Daniel.
* A likely blooper in the first film that wasn't caught: during his fight with Johnny, Daniel points at his injured knee... And Johnny ''immediately'' smashes it.
* After Johnny's nose gets bloodied, a member of the crowd, apropos of nothing, shouts [[NoSympathy "Johnny you're a creampuff!"]]

* When Daniel asks Miyagi about his skill at karate, he asks what kind of belt he has. Miyagi's reply: "[[CaptainObvious Canvas]]. You like? JC Penney, $3.98!"

** Likewise later on, during the now [[MemeticMutation memetic]] WaxOnWaxOff scene, Daniel takes note of just how many vehicles are in Miyagi's front yard.

* In the first film, the Cobras and Daniel have a truce established until the tournament. However, Daniel attempts to stick it to the Cobras by asking a teacher to repeat for them what is implied to be a dry, boring lecture. This backfires when the Cobras all promptly scatter away to class, leaving Daniel to [[ThisIsGonnaSuck listen to it alone.]]

* In the third film, when Silver tries to take on Miyagi, he starts making FunnyBruceLeeNoises at him. Once Miyagi finishes kicking his ass he waves his hands around in a goofy fashion and mockingly does the same. With a totally straight face.

* Miyagi vs. Kreese is hilariously one-sided. After Miyagi shoves him off Johnny, Kreese punches, and Miyagi dodges, leading Kreese to punch through a car window. He spins around, goes after Miyagi again with the other hand...and the same thing happens. Miyagi then grabs Kreese and forces him to his knees, raising a hand above his head and speaking in a dead serious tone of voice:

** Kreese's utterly dumbfounded expression, and the wink Miyagi gives Daniel afterwards, really sell it.

* (General) Miyagai and inanimate objects:
** Julie asks Miyagi "When are you going to teach me to break boards and stuff?" Miyagi answers "[[MartialPacifist Why you want to break boards? What boards ever do to you?]]"

** Another case of Miyagi vs inanimate objects from the first film, when some hooligans leave a bunch of beer bottles on Miyagi's truck. They refuse to leave, so Miyagi chops the bottles in half with one swing, terrifying them away. When Daniel asks how he did that, Miyagi replies "Don't know. First time trying."
