he is so over the top and ridiculous, I love it. man I wish he'd gotten a spin off movie where he's just dumping toxic waste snorting lines and laughing maniacally and beating people up, he's like a cartoon villain.
And was able to take this role and completely own it including a scene where he’s negotiating deals in a bubble bath, on a gold plated phone, smoking a cigar…you know your good if you can pull that off lol
34 years apart is bound to change opinions bruh lol. Silver in 2019 is so interesting because we see glimpses of his former, humble self in his youth, coupled with the sociopathic, unhinged tendencies he developed after Nam.
He also kind of reminds me of Chris McLean from the TD series. I don’t know why. Perhaps it’s because their both well-off (chaotic) lunatics who go out of their way to terrorize mere high schoolers.
@@H.K.5 I like how they sort of covered for that though, when Silver first meets Kreese in Cobra Kai he mentions all the cocaine he was on. Watching this back, it's a hell of a drug. Lol.
Not going to lie. His acting is over the top but it works for what this movie is. Though, some of his less over the top scenes and lines still have fine delivery. It is very cheesy but I still love it. I definitely love even more that they evolved this character into something even more terrifying. It really is a blessing that Cobra Kai was able to bring back basically every actor aside from Dutch’s actor and Patt Morrita.
" back in the 80s I thought I could conquer the world. I came pretty damn close. But I was so hoped up on cocaine, revenge, I spent a couple of months terrorizing a teenager over a high-school karate tournament. It's sounds insane just talking about it. After we lost the tournament I hit rock bottom. Got my ass into therapy. Turns out you disappearing was the best thing that ever happened to me"
the sad thing is I think silver actually had healed and reached a point of peace in his life, only to have kreese mind fuck him back into this. I believe his apology to daniel was sincere, and the downward spiral was totally a result of kreese.
Mat, have to say I agree, Kreese fully accountable for his descent into madness, Silver is a grown man, who should have put his foot down in telling him No!! That's all behind me
Kreese seems to be way humbler here than in Cobra Kai. I mean, here he says Silver doesn't own anything to him, while in Cobra Kai he outright treats Silver like a dog and often guilt trips him by playing the Vietnam card.
Well he was in a low state at that point…he certainly has his moments of humility in CK, though he usually manages to spin them into sympathy because he’s a manipulative sonuva
Kreese at this point was at the end of his life he had nothing anymore that is why he gave up hope and was nice. But in Cobra Kai he came back with attitude 😎
a multi millionaire who disposes of toxic waste while having a ton of legal troubles takes time to bully and mentally abuse a high schooler, you gotta respect the hustle. Mans dedication was second to none😂😂😂😂
Let's see the checklist for 80/90's villain: Ponytail ✔️ Cigar ✅ Ominous mansion ✔️ Over the top laugh ✅ Enough money to spend vast amount of it on revenge ✔️
The actor that plays Terry silver really does look like he could be older than the actor who plays Danile Larrusso. Even now a days the actor who plays Danile Larusso really ages well. He looked like a teenager back than it’s hard to believe he was actually 23 years old when he first started.
I mean he is equally scary in both with different approaches. Here he is just batshit crazy, Matthew Lillard in Scream type villainous. Now he is an absolutely menacing Heath Ledger Joker category villain. Incredibly smart.
Please.....he waa a joke in cobra Kai. He became a caricature of himself and didn't learn anything from the past. Plus be became EXTREMELY predictable.
Silver 1985 talking to Kreese: "HEY I LIKE THAT! OH I LIKE THAT JOHNNY I'M GONNA USE IT (sinister laughing)" Silver 2019 talking to Kim Da-Eun: (in calm manner) Oh i like that, Yeahh.."
This acting is phenomenal and the camera shots and angles and lighting were well done. His eyes remain sinister like snake eyes watching it's prey anyone that can read eyes will know this guy is up to no good but he always goes after unsuspecting people so they never see what's coming next.
i love how when they reintroduce terry in cobra kai he says that he was all coked up and strung out when he terrorized daniel and that he feels bad about that. that sentiment didnt last long . I guess he started coke binging again cause he goes superbully on daniel and company.

I love that we saw more of Terry’s and John’s backstory in Cobra Kai we saw how Terry obviously feels guilty cuz his radio went off giving away their position resulting in Ponytail’s death then being a POW and watching his squad being forced to fight to the death for the amusement of the Viet Cong after that whole ordeal it made perfect sense why Terry developed a cocaine addiction to cover up for his severe PTSD it’s like Terry said “My father wants me to put Karate and Vietnam behind me but idk if I could ever go back to a normal life”
Out of everyone's return to cobra kai Terry Silver was the one that got me the most excited/hyped he was easily my favourite villain and bloody hell did they deliver on his return. He's even more menacing than ever the only thing that was dissapointing and a let down was that we never got to hear his classic laugh that's the only thing that was missing. But other than that it was so good seeing him back again I just remember getting crazy excited when they teased him at the end of season 3.
Terry Silver is so much better of a villain than Kreese ever was. He's more charming and a better fighter too which is odd. It was always alluded that Kreese was the better fighter and had a more fierce reputation especially after Cobra Kai season 4 thoroughly established Silver was the beta to Kreese' alpha status but what we all see in every part of Karate Kid 3 and Cobra Kai is Silver is a thoroughly better fighter than Kreese and it's not subtle. I don't get how he was a bit of a sissy in the war and Kreese was a badass. It doesn't fit well with what we see in the films and series. Terry would embarrass Kreese in combat yet he acknowledged him as his superior over and over. Quite annoying until he finally usurped him at the end of last season.
I think it was due to his loyalty. Terry is a twisted man, but his loyalty is incredibly strong. After kreese saved him from that hell hole, he put all his trust in him.
He wasn’t a better fighter than Kreese. Just more cunning. Silver was always exposed for the coward that he was when the numbers/deck weren’t stacked in his favor.
@@SouthpawsRule217 no. It really didn’t. He had to rely on a numbers advantage, and camouflage, and paying off ref’s etc, to win. When the fight was out in the open, one on one, with a level playing field, Terry got owned….per usual.
To be honest when I heard cobra Kai season was going on I thought it was too old to bring it back but when I heard Terry Silver was coming back I became interested too watch because his character in karate kid 3 was so powerful one of the best villain role I'd ever seen the man knows how too steal the show every time as he still had that old Quick Silver type of attitude I thought he was the best actor out of all no doubt he rocks.
@@evelic He DEFINITELY can fit the bill for some other batman villain for sure though. Considering how scary and incredibly intelligent he is in Cobra Kai, he would kill it.
It's like Thomas Ian Griffin went from being Jim Carrey in KK3 to Master Thespian in Cobra Kai...every time I see Griffin (in interviews, etc.) he scares the hell out of me now...I can't separate him and the character he played in Cobra Kai...
Looking back now as an adult who live thrillers and suspense. I think it would have been badass if they just had the introduction of silver without you ever knowing that he was part of Cobra Kai. And then after the reveal at the car dojo that kreese isn't dead you see all scenes seeing it into motion
It's so hilarious that Terry said that he was addicted to cocaine during the 80s. It made his behaviour so much sense. Terrorising a teenager, laughing like a maniac in a sauna, doing business in a bathtub, trying to kill a elderly war hero. It could all easily be explained with him using cocaine to cope with his PTSD.
Man, did Cobra Kai ever do Silver the justice he was so desperately needing. Turning what was a very cliche yuppie douchebag villain (who in all fairness did make Karate Kid III at least semi-entertaining with his schtick) into a fully formed, well rounded antagonist. As great as everyone else was, Silver (and to a great extent Chozen as well ) MADE Season 5 as great as it was. I think without those two guys, the season may have actually notched a fair bit below the par established by the previous seasons. As it is, it stands out among one of the best seasons of the show.
On the contrary, if you view from a different vantage point - Terry was a good guy and the others were the antagonists. all Terry wanted to do was start a global karate franchise like Tiger Schulmanns but greedy and arrogant Daniel LaRusso kept attacking him and his business. What is wrong with introducing good karate to the world, with form, discipline, elegance, and technique from the best instructors all over the world - Tyron woodley, Stephen Thompson, the Korean champions. Sign me up! What is not to like lol
Wouldn't be surprised to find out Zlatan was indeed inspired by Silver to create his public persona. He really does resemble him, from the ponytail to his fighting chops.
A man can't stand, he can't fight. A man can't breathe, he can't fight. A man can't see, he can't fight. A man calls himself Jaden Smith, he can't fight.
I like Terry smile he is totally crazy. The best actor in Karate Kid and Cobra Kai. I like how he lie every word. I like Terry Silver theme karate kid song very good. Cobra Kai never die.
Maybe he wasn't, it's simply been 34 years since then and all sentences/fines have long been served? He's still an enigma in Cobra Kai being honest, we will learn more.
“Back in the 80s, I thought I could conquer the world, and came pretty dang close. I was so hopped up on cocaine and revenge. I spent months terrorizing a teenager over a high school karate tournament. 😂 It sounds insane just talking about it.”
I remember watching this movie back on 1990 and many times and I never paid attention to the background music, and when I saw Cobra kai season 4 I paid attention to that silver music theme, now that I am seeing this I realize that the movie had that same theme but it is not played through a loud dramatic way, that can be found on cobra kai 4 only.
Terry is easily the greatest villain in the whole franchise
Sato was evil out of bitterness. Crease out of ignorance. But Silver was evil out of the delight it gave him. (amped by coke)
Agreed
Definitely! He was a real prick
And also the most loyal friend
He's the best character in the franchise
he is so over the top and ridiculous, I love it. man I wish he'd gotten a spin off movie where he's just dumping toxic waste snorting lines and laughing maniacally and beating people up, he's like a cartoon villain.
He’s basically a PG Tony Montana
He was cartoon villain in KK3 but in Cobra Kai he was actually scary. The man easily caused rift between Daniel and his wife.
"hey..I LIKE THAT. OOH I LIKE THAT JOHNNY!!!"
@@chasevids14 Gringo PG Montana lol
You can see him in Captain Planet as Looten Plunder that's the most similar cartoon character I can compare Terry Silver to

Haha
He’s more of Suge Knight
Lol, yea he is
He is both Palpatine and Joker. Taking over the world while being high on cocaine and enjoying every minute.
He’s somehow more menacing in Cobra Kai. Maybe it’s the fact that he is much older and can still kick ass.

Watching this after Cobra Kai I really don't remember this movie. This was a lot more involved than I recall.
It's funny when he gets referred to as a "Bond Villain" in Cobra Kai xD
1:33, You’re gonna regret this, I AM COBRA KAI, the same background music
I remember watching this movie back on 1990 and many times and I never paid attention to the background music, and when I saw Cobra kai season 4 I paid attention to that silver music theme, now that I am seeing this I realize that the movie had that same theme but it is not played through a loud dramatic way, that can be found on cobra kai 4 only.
Loved that guy his character was so funny
5:27 This is the “missing” Silver theme from Cobra Kai!!
