Wax on, Wax off – Introducing The Karate Lid

wax-on-wax-off-introducing-the-karate-lid<p>Picture it, last Saturday morning. Sitting on my couch, slowly emerging from a sleepy stupor; I stumble upon The Karate Kid on television. It's the original 1984 version, the one that was around way before DVDs, Tivo and even me!</p> <p>I watch for a moment, taking note of the majesty of the cinematography as Daniel-son (or whatever the old sensei guy calls him) practices his special praying mantis-like kick, poised atop a rugged rock on a pristine beach at sunset. It's a sight to see, but something is missing.</p> <p>Now, I don't claim to be martial arts movie master (or an aikido aficionado for that matter) but I do know that no karate film is complete without an element of swagger. Today you've got to have style to keep a story alive. <a title=Watch Dumbledore escape with style href=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V46hFOCWM60>Take escaping an ambush through a burst of fire. That's style.</a></p> <p>The 2010 remake of The Karate Kid captures edgy China streets, where you never know what, or who lurks around each corner. Jaden Smith is scorned and rebellious while Daniel-son seems to mistakenly wander into confrontations. To put it simply, the reshaped classic tale brings ego and pride into the mix.</p> <p>The updated Karate Kid did for the original film what we do for plastic lids of all styles and sizes, offer a modern and effective spin on a classic. Plastic lids have been around for as long as you can remember, right? But did they always offer variety in functionality, appearance and style? I think not.</p> <p>In honor of our <a title=Learn how The Karate Lid poster was designed href=https://www.containerandpackaging.com/wallpaper/2011/karatelid.asp>September 2011 calendar image </a>take a look through our expansive <a title=Search for plastic lids at Container and Packaging Supply href=https://www.containerandpackaging.com/catalog/closures/4/ target=_blank rel=noopener>collection of plastic lids</a>. <a title=Search for disc top plastic lids at Container and Packaging Supply href=https://www.containerandpackaging.com/catalog/disc-tops/104/ target=_blank rel=noopener>Disc tops</a>, <a title=Search for flip top plastic lids at Container and Packaging Supply href=https://www.containerandpackaging.com/catalog/flip-tops/103/ target=_blank rel=noopener>flip tops</a>, <a title=Search for spouted plastic lids at Container and Packaging Supply href=https://www.containerandpackaging.com/catalog/spouted/107/ target=_blank rel=noopener>spouts</a> and<a title=Search for push/pull plastic lids at Container and Packaging Supply href=https://www.containerandpackaging.com/catalog/push-pulls/106/ target=_blank rel=noopener> push/pull lids</a> are just the beginning.
