Came from

What the speakers say it drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Rocky: 1 line the host's read ×1

  1. lineage (lineage): Rocky ⇒ The Karate Kid (the host's read). Rocky is eight years before Karate Kid, which is called the 2.0 version of the same underdog story but a completely different movie in every respect.
    “We're 8 years away from karate kid, which is the next, the 2.0 version of this movie.”

John G. Avildsen: 1 line career ×1

  1. career (career): John G. Avildsen → The Karate Kid. Asked if Avildsen's apex was Rocky, a host says the case can be made for Karate Kid.
    “You can make a case that's karate kid.”

The Mighty Ducks (franchise): 1 line verdict ×1

  1. verdict (verdict): The Mighty Ducks (franchise) → The Karate Kid. Mighty Ducks beat Karate Kid because the audience skews 90s kids.
    “Our demographic of our listeners, I think, is more of a mighty ducks generation than a karate generation.”

Working Girl: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (theme): Working Girl → The Karate Kid. Flipping the villain's perspective as with Cobra Kai: Catherine as a victim of her assistant.
