I recently referred to a friend as Mr. Miyagi, because I admired their talent & their mindset (most of the time) about life. I’ve learned a lot (good & bad) from just watching them operate. However, they took it as an insult. They said “stop calling me an asshole in roundabout ways.” & “he was an asshole throughout the whole movie until the end.”
Apparently I am crazy because, I don’t remember that part of the movie at all. I remember Daniel not having any friends, getting his ass kicked for no reason, and Mr. Miyagi helping him have a different perspective on life. In fact. I watched the movie to make sure I wasn’t wrong.
All I know is. Most people would not have taken that the wrong way. R.I.P. Pat Morita
