Of all the gloriously bad things in this movie the villain is the best..


Not the bully (who was funny but not the best) but Patrick Kilpatrick. Freaking priceless. He growls, makes weird noises, moves slowly as if to intimidate but not even remotely intimidating.

I'm having trouble deciding if Lee or Terry Silver from Karate Kid Part III is a better over-the-top villain.

I like that he made the bully kid TOM cry like a baby. That really showed how badass he was, that he could make someone that tough cry like a little baby.

Since he was compared to Terrance Silver in KK3 who would you guys put your money on in a fight between Silver and Lee?

Or Mike Barns (arguably the best of the "teen" villains in the Karate Kid trilogy) versus "Tom" from this movie?

My opinion is Mike Barns beats Tom with very little difficulty since he was a national champion for his age division and Tom was basically a "Johnny Laurance" a big fish in a small pond.

I put Lee over Terrance Silver in a fight. He is more psychotic and we actually SEE him fighting OTHER adult martial artists in the tournament and easily beating them. We never really see that with Terry Silver unless his "sparring partners" early in the movie are a lot tougher than they looked.
