After Mortal Kombat vs. Enter the Dragon hit 100,000 views, I needed a follow-up. I was looking for another movie observation that could work as a YouTube video, and I remembered this other theory I'd been carrying around for years: Daniel LaRusso isn't entirely innocent in The Karate Kid (1984).

The result was even more spectacular than the first: over 1 million views in its first week, eventually reaching 15+ million.
