Nah, it's not about the kangeroo's. You should look it up sometime. The eeevel villian doesn't die...he just loses his evil'ness.

Very different from most other MA films, where the bad guy always dies.

"Aiki" is good, more of an adult version of the Karate Kid movies, and does have actual Aiki related moves in it. They even mention O'Sensei in a discussion.
Hmm...havent' seen it...I'll look it up.

The new King Kong movie features a scene with Kong fighting several dinosaurs, and that choreography was very reminiscent of Aikido...
