This spotlight is on Sony Pictures release of The Karate Kid 3 Film Collection in 4K.

In the 1970's, Pat Morita was pretty much a staple of the American television landscape. It's fair to say he often got work in a less politically correct era as a token Asian on situation comedies. He landed iconic recurring roles as Arnold, who owned the burger hangout in Happy Days, and Ah Chew, the target of Redd Foxx's bigoted antics on Sanford And Son. His is a long career in the annals of 70's television. While he did appear in a few feature films, none of these appearances had the lasting fame or adoration that he experienced as Mr. Miyagi in the Karate Kid franchise. The role would define him for the remainder of his days. When Karate Kid appeared in 1984, it delivered a modest return at the box office but found some enduring returns in the young home video market. It was enough to score a sequel in 1986 that would become the best moneymaker of the franchise's original collection of four films. It pulled in enough scratch to warrant a third film, and that's pretty much where it all went downhill faster than a speeding bullet, which might have mercifully ended the movies on a high note.

"My name is Nicky Shen, and this has been my home for three years. A Shaolin monastery in Yunnan Province, China. My mom sent me on a cultural tour of China. Turned out, it was really a matchmaking tour to land me a Chinese husband. Just one of the many ways my mom tried to control my destiny. I panicked. I ran. That was the first time anyone told me I had a choice in anything. I was only planning to spend the night. But then I saw something that I knew I wanted to be a part of. These women were warriors. And so I stayed. Pei-Ling became my Shifu, my mentor."

One of the neatest little items I've come across this year is a small-budget film called Cicada Song. I reviewed it earlier in the year and have since gotten to talk with the film's director, Michael Starr. He's one of the good guys, and you should slide the film under a tree or two. You'll surprise that film fan who might never have even known about this one.

The Blu-ray offers a wonderful image and audio presentation. It was like seeing the film for the first time for me. There is about an hour of extras that includes a 25-minute behind-the-scenes feature and a long list of short interviews with cast and crew. This is one of those gems I occasionally find that put the spice into this job. Here's a little bit about the film:
