Episode notes
Dwight Clark's Unique Karate Role
- Dwight Clark, a football celebrity famous for "The Catch," stars awkwardly as a karate man in Kindergarten Ninja.
- Despite being a world-class athlete, his karate looks painful and unconvincing, adding a unique charm to the movie.
DARE Program's Ineffectiveness
- The DARE program seemed ineffective as kids often mocked it and still used drugs.
- Its presence mainly resulted in ironic adoption, like wearing DARE t-shirts to mock the anti-drug message.
Failed Montage Attempt
- The film attempts a montage of Blade Steel wooing women but fails by showing each woman sitting down and leaving in turn.
- This underwhelming sequence highlights the low-budget and amateurish nature of the movie.
