We're talking about turning a book into a hit show and what it really takes to bring a story to life. The most important metric for me is do I want to share this book with somebody?

Chapter 3: How does the nostalgia for 'Johnny Tsunami' affect the hosts' expectations?
OK, this this was you. Well, this was not a good movie. Oh, this was not.
Come on.
This was come on. First of all, Brandon Baker. Awesome. Can do no wrong. He was phenomenal in the first movie. He was phenomenal in the second movie. Most of the cast was good. Yes. The little kid was not. Really? Oh, God. First of all, the character was annoying as shit. You just wanted to slap him. Oh, his character. Oh, my gosh.
That was the thing about the first movie was they took... So they were supposed to... In my head, the way they pitched this movie was we want to give Brandon Baker's character... his own version of himself when he was a kid. Right. Somebody who's moved out of everything he knows. He's really struggling with it. He is kind of can then mentor the guy. And then he finds this new niche thing.
In this case, it's mountain boarding. They didn't do that at all, because the thing we loved about the first one was no matter what situation you put him in, he was super nice. He was. He was sharing his magazine. with the bullies at school. He was positive. He was having a great time. This kid was such a little... I wanted him to fall down the gorge. I hated him.
Not only that, but the actor was smiling and laughing through every scene he was in, which took me right out of the movie. Like he's trying to say his lines, but he's got a smile on his face or he's trying to make it look like... It was just... And I know we've seen him in other things and he was better. He was not good in this movie. And it took me right out of the film.
So the acting wasn't good for the little kid and the character... I hate it. Yeah, the character was not a likable character in any sense. No. Even towards the end, I wasn't really necessarily happy that it worked out. You know what I mean for that character? And it makes no sense. The race at the end is unmotivated. It makes no sense.
We're racing to see which one of us can sell these boards in a store. I mean, none of this made sense to me. And it hurt my heart because I loved the first one. I love Brandon Baker. He's amazing. The grandfather, everybody. I was so happy to see them all back. And and then they kind of I don't blame them for it. They did this with the story and I was not a fan. But anyway, we'll get into that.
The director was Eric Bross, a new name to the podcast at the time. Bross had recently come off a big TV movie, Martha Behind Bars, starring Sybil Shepard as Martha Stewart. in her big tax fraud court case. Fun fact, my Uncle Bobby was her lawyer. Wow. Yeah, my dad's best friend. He's gone now, but Bob Morvello, great guy.

Chapter 4: What are the key differences between 'Johnny Tsunami' and its sequel?
Great movie. And most of the video games since. And he appeared in movies like 007 License to Kill, 2001's Planet of the Apes, and most famously, the 1987 critically beloved film The Last Emperor. In 2015, he had a nice return to TV as, I hope I don't apologize if I butcher this name, Nobusuke Tagomi, I believe is how you say it, in the TV show The Man in the High Castle.
But very sadly, and such a big loss for Hollywood, he passed away last year at the age of 75. And that one seriously hurt my heart. Yeah. Another former Magical Rewind guest and friend of the podcast, Robin Lively, plays Carla, the much younger future bride of Johnny Tsunami. She was not in the original movie and was a real get for Disney, honestly.
We spoke to her on this podcast for another Disney Channel original movie, The Legend. I'm saying it. I'm saying it with a smile. I always do. Buzz bucket. That's right. Lively was an always busy young actor appearing in Wildcats, Karate Kid Part 3, Chicago Hope, and the cult classic, Teen Witch. So take that. Yes.
She continues to act on shows like 9-1-1, Lone Star, Cobra Kai, where she revisited her Karate Kid lore, The Good Doctor, The Bad Doctor, The OK Doctor. And she's now shown up on one of TV's biggest hits, Landman. She's also married to the great Bart Johnson of high school musical fame. He's a large man in person, too. And we have also interviewed him.
And we released his podcast right here on this very feed. And Lively wasn't the only Karate Kid alum in this movie. We have Yuji Okamoto returning as the dad. Pete Kapahala. Okamoto was in a bunch of classic 80 movies. Okay. I'm just going to list these movies, and this might as well be called Will's Greatest Hits of All Time because they're awesome.
Movies like Real Genius, Karate Kid 2, and my favorite of all time, Better Off Dead. Please tell me you've seen Better Off Dead. Oh, my God. Sabrina.
Sabrina.
OK, well, it's phenomenal. He plays one of two drivers and he just talks like Howard Cosell drag racing with a young John Cusack every time they appear at the same stoplight. He would also return to his Karate Kid roots on Cobra Kai for almost 25 episodes and appeared in the movies Inception and Pearl Harbor. And man, do I want to talk to him.
Okay, all this Karate Kid talk has made me want to roundhouse kick anyone who likes movies longer than 90 minutes. We all know that's the target we're looking for when it comes to length here on Magical Rewind, people. So let's see what Johnny Capahala, back near the board, near your board, all about the board, came in at. It's 90 minutes. Ring the bell. Call the authorities.

Chapter 5: What happens when Kapahala and Chris dirtboard together?
Chris goes first and pulls off a sick grind trick. His anger about everything quickly turns into happiness and he ends up having a fun day teaching the guys how to ride. And he's good. They show that at 12. He's really good. Over at Carla's Surf Shop, she's complaining to Johnny Capahala's mom about how difficult Chris has been. They think he'll fall into place after the wedding.
It also looks like Johnny Tsunami out of nowhere is playing with the idea of selling mountain boards in the shop. And this is the first kind of we're hearing about this. We're now over at Dirt Devil's headquarters and things aren't going as planned. Troy's on the phone with a potential buyer of the store, but they're thinking of pulling out because of the new competition across the street.
Wait, what? This makes Troy worry that Carlos Surf Shop is diversifying their inventory into dirt boards, so Troy sends Jared out to double check. Back at Val's house, the four-wheeler gang is having a blast. Even Chris looks like he's finally having fun. Val's dad arrives at home from a business trip and meets the guys. He is clearly hiding an accent.
You know, a couple people, their accents pop out. It's like, oh, that's right. We're in New Zealand. Right. But they did great. Once they leave, Kapahala realizes Val's dad was the banker his grandpa was talking to. He just doesn't get what they were talking about. Meanwhile, Jared arrives at Carla's shop and pockets one of their wholesale receipts.
Chapter 6: How do the characters react to the shop competition?
He has proof they are going to be selling dirt boards. Carla spots him and sees him out. Once he delivers the news to Troy, he decides it's time to pay them a visit. Okay. Does Troy have a point here?
I mean, is it kind of a move to literally open a shop across the street and it's a surf shop, but then decide to sell the exact same specific product that your guy across the street literally is selling? I mean, is that kind of not cool? It's absolutely not cool. Okay, so, Troy, bad guy has a point.
An ice cream shop across from a snow cone shop, and then the snow cone shop starts to also sell ice cream. Right, you know what I mean? It's like, that's not... I was like, well, dude, that's really not cool to do. And we're supposed to like you. You're the good guys. Yes. Where I... Because, again, this movie is not going to do wrong. Okay? All right? So you just need to simmer down over there.
Where... Where I just find... I get you, Spidey. I actually kind of like this new nickname of mine where I justified it as it felt like we didn't get a ton of backstory of what the shop was. Remember, it was a hand me down type idea. Right. Where I justified it in my head was this was always an old school kind of surf shop type thing. And.
He is and that the dirt board place was more of a newer thing and he was trying to rebuild it. And of course, he's trying to, you know, make it make sense and appeal to everyone. And, you know, the new guy. Sorry, but this is an old one.

Chapter 7: What are the consequences of Chris's actions?
And this is this is the name. But, you know, but the store was never like the store that they're rebuilding. Her dad shop was obviously never sold mountain boards. I mean, if he if they had thrown in a line like mountain boards. But that's what I'm saying. If they throw in a line like, you know, my my dad who left me the shop was the first person to sell mountain boards.
You open the shop across the street. We're just going back. If they somehow justify it. And they could have done it because of the big wigs that we find out later could have been like, oh, yeah, he was my first sponsor. Exactly. Something like that. But it didn't. And so I know. That could have been one quick chidey seat because we do meet him. And what was he there for? How did they know him?
Thank you. Oh, wow. I'm glad you're with me, Spidey. Wow. Rooster has a point. However, the movie's. However, it's still a 10. 10 out of 10 for Sabrina. I'm giving it 10 roosters. I don't even know what we're calling it. 10 Spideys. Nice. Exactly.
Chapter 8: How does the movie conclude with the wedding and surf shop opening?
So, yeah, I just thought they had a point. It was kind of a kind of move. But anyway. Yeah, it's true. So, yeah. So Troy and Jared make their way to Carla's and get a little feisty about going toe to toe. Tsunami claims competition is good for the community, but the tension is very high. He's Shang Tsung. Yeah. He can kill you and take your soul. Flawless victory. Anyway. Oh, God.
Such a good movie. Anyway, yeah, Troy even announces that Chris is no longer allowed at Dirt Devils, which, of course, infuriates the hopeful member. The next day, Chris won't even talk to his future stepdad. Tsunami tells Kapahala all about his own origins of surfing at 16 and the biggest waves he ever caught. He ate it big time. He took on too much.
He promised himself he would never do that again. And so the next morning, when everyone wakes up, Tsunami is nowhere to be found, which is a nightmare because the store opens later today. And Uncle Chris, little tiny Uncle Chris, is gone, too. Copahala and Sam drive off to find little tiny Uncle Chris again, but instead run into Jared and Val arguing. She's been hanging out with Copahala.
She can't drive with the team to the pro dirtboarding demo, an event where they were planning to meet sponsors. Copahala tries to step in, but that isn't helpful, of course. The dirt devils drive off, and now Sam is forced to drive her in his awesome car. Yeah. It's just so awesome. It was like, oh, this giant plot twist and oh, what a, oh, you can drive me? Cool. Yeah, you can take me? Great.
Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Thank you. I love that you're finding flaws. I know, but it's like, it doesn't matter. Just get her there. But I don't care. Let's go see what we're doing with this X Games moment. Let's do it. Thank you. At the big demo, it looks like X Games, which is a cheap local carnival.
Nonetheless, the trio are impressed with all the riders and start looking for Chris, which for Sam turns into flirting with multiple girls. Kappa Hala finally does spot his little uncle cousin, who is now arguing with Jared about being banned from the Dirt Devils. The young boy challenges Jared to a race, but is interrupted by Troy, who has found a possible sponsor, ProBoards.
The company wants to meet the dirt devils and Chris could join them. He just needs to convince Tsunami not to sell skate or dirt boards. Jared also tells him to be at the Gap in the South Trail. And I'm going to butcher this name. I apologize. Pupukaya? I think so. Is that right? Tomorrow to get big air and prove himself there.
And at the same time, back at the house, Carla and Tsunami are happy they found Chris, but his attitude is really bothering her. It was bothering me by this point. Tsunami promises he just needs to feel part of something. Okay. Once Chris is home, he sprints right to his playing video games, which is
real let's be honest but kapahala tries to give him words of encouragement their family members are getting married they should make the best of it running away will only make people miserable and kapahala just wants his grandpa happy and i like that people started to kind of give this kid like knock off your attitude it's not about you all the time right and that's sometimes not very disney where they'll like sit a little kid down and essentially be like check yourself yeah and they did that twice in this movie which i kind of she then comes and does it too and i like that
