Tear Jerker: The Karate Kid

Original films:

  • Mr Miyagi's entire backstory, from leaving the one he loved to leave a death fight, to marrying but forced to go to war thanks to racial prejudices, only to lose his wife and unborn baby to childbirth while in combat.

2010 film:

  • The car smashing scene. Made worse by the fact that he caused the car wreck that he's reliving that killed his wife and child.
    • "Every year, I fix the car. Still fix nothing."
  • The moment where Dre is injured and Han runs onto the arena floor comes surprisingly close.
