Comment: Bad news, Pat Morita of the Karate kid movies has passed away at the age of 73.

((Morita died Thursday at his home in Las Vegas of natural causes, said his wife of 12 years, Evelyn. She said in a statement that her husband, who first rose to fame with a role on "Happy Days," had "dedicated his entire life to acting and comedy."))

This is truly a sad day. As a kid, I grew up watching and looking up to the character of Mr. Miyagi. He was guy that had the power to kick someone’s a** but didn’t do it. Just because you have the power, that doesn’t mean you have to use it.

RIP Mr. Miyagi

Side note: He was supposed to reprise his voice from the Mulan movies in the game Kingdom Hearts II. I guess that’s not possible now.

Here is his imdb.com career. http://imdb.com/name/nm0001552/
