THURSDAY IS FOR LOVERS

By Chet Hondo

Is there a better 80’s movie theme song? No.

Karate Kid 1 and 2 are all time favorites. Please don’t screw up Karate Kid Will Smith.

    Hi there, I’m the Director of a new Martial Arts TV series debuting on STRIKE.TV. I was wondering if you’d be interested in viewing it, and maybe reviewing it. Hope you enjoy! It stars the bad guy from Karate Kid 2. And ninjas!

    BELOW is the official press release. Have a nice day!

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Seattle, WA: “KATANA” is a martial arts web series that premiered January 7th, 2009, on Strike.TV, an internet network created by Hollywood writers during the 2007-2008 Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike. It is the first ever martial arts based internet television series by Hollywood professionals to debut on the internet.

    In the pilot episode, John Koyama (The Last Samurai) plays Toshiro Sato, a former Ninja forced out of retirement to do the evil bidding of his older brother Kenji, played by action legend Yuji Okumoto (Karate Kid 2, Johnny Tsunami). “KATANA” is also Yuji Okumoto’s producing and writing debut.

    Shot in Seattle, the series pilot stars a host of top A-list stunt and action talent from Hollywood to Hong Kong, including Thai action star Don Tai (Rush Hour 3, Fast & Furious), Al Goto (Letters From Iwo Jima, We Were Soldiers), and Sam Looc (Mask of the Ninja, Tropic Thunder).

    The series combines elements of “The Sopranos” & the “Godfather”, documenting a sibling rivalry that erupts into a full blown civil war for control of a Japanese (Yakuza) crime family.
