- Hi, I'm Peyton List.
- And I'm Xolo Maridueña and we're here from Cobra Kai.
Today we're gonna be playing Portrait Mode.
It's a game where we draw each other for 10 minutes
while answering your burning questions about Cobra Kai.
(upbeat music)
- Are you a good artist?
- I think I'm like a five out of 10,
solid five out of 10.
The thing about having it in Sharpie
is that I'm already so nervous about messing it up.
- The only thing I'm nervous about
is that I don't know how to draw.
(Xolo laughing)
- Xolo, isn't your dad an artist?
- Yes he is, unfortunately I did not get that gene.
That's definitely more of my sister.
I don't know what I'm good at yet,
but when I tell you.
(Peyton laughing)
I'll, let you know.
It'll be like Drake and Josh, how they were like,
"If you squint really hard it looks...
- Yeah. - Like a Christmas tree."
(suspenseful music)
- Yeah
(man door clunking)
(woman door clunking)
(crowd cheering)
- So the final fight in season two took a little bit shorter
than I think a lot of people think, you know,
we only had three days to film all of the,
the choreography for that, for those scenes there
because we filmed on a real college campus.
We weren't allowed to be there on the weekdays,
we were only allowed to be there on the weekends.
But I think all things considered it went pretty well.
Honestly, I feel like the winner was
one of the easier parts to film
just because we knew right off the bat,
if we messed up, you know,
where we messed up and where to fix it.
Whereas I feel like for the other ones, you know,
the moments are so high in intensity that
you're kinda just rushing through them
but, you know, I feel like regardless
they came out super well
and I'm excited to see what people will see in season three.
- So what do you think?
- I think you should delete that,
put it in the trash, empty the bin
and have your laptop cremated.
- There's a lot of theories.
Have, have you heard any?
- You know what, I feel like
when you have a, a fan base
as strong as we have for the Karate Kid,
everything turns into a theory, like,
down to, like I know for the longest time people were like,
"Miguel's house has two owl, salt and pepper shakers
and an owl was blah, blah,
blah's favorite animal from them,"
and it's just like sometimes it gets to the point
where you're like,
"Ah, I think he might be looking too much into it."
But I will say it's cool to,
to see such a devoted fan base.
- There is so much that the, that John, Josh and Hayden
put in for them, that I feel like they're kinda right to,
like you know with the wardrobe and everything.
- Yeah. There's definitely everything happens for a reason,
you know, our creators definitely
put Easter eggs all the time
of characters from our moments
from the past Karate Kids and stuff like that.
But, I think our show does a good job
of not relying on the nostalgia
and being able to stand on its own without the nostalgia.
This is, I can already, I don't know.
I felt like it was, it was going good,
and then I tried to do the hair
and Sharpies don't really allow
for any sort of like shading or anything like that.
Everything is either dark black or, or not, so let's see.
When the first trailers came out, it,
everyone was kind of like, "Oh great
they're ruining another franchise that,
that we loved as a, as a kid."
And I think, you know, it wasn't until the show came out
that people were really like, "Oh wait
this is actually pretty cool."
Like maybe this could work,
and, and I'm really appreciative of, you know, our writers
Josh and Hayden, without them
I feel like this is not possible.
And, and I think it just goes to show, you know,
Billy and Ralph have definitely been, you know
offered the opportunity to
come back and reprise these roles.
And I think it goes to show that
finally they came back for this.
So it must've been like the right time.
- I feel like it was always loved.
And even going to the airport
before my season even came out,
all the Karate Kid fans were there
with the head shots and everything else,
and I was kind of introduced to the world,
then that was a whole huge new road.
- Oh man, favorite Miyagi lesson.
I think the one that comes right, like right off the bat
for me is Miyagi says, you know, "You stand on the left side
you're safe, you stand on the right side, you're safe
but when you stand in the middle,
you get squashed like a grape."
And I think that's a pretty great saying, you know
you kinda gotta, like you can't waffle, you gotta
be on one side or the other.
And I think, I dunno,
I feel like that rain's pretty true.
- Walk on the road.
Walk right side, safe. Walk left side, safe.
Walk middle, sooner or later,
(man lips clicking)
you get the squish, just like grape.
(Peyton laughing)
- Oh no.
- I wish there could have been a little bit more
of a smile here but,
oh nah I'm just (beep) I'm gonna bring the mouth.
It's okay.
(Xolo laughing)
It's okay.
(clock beeping)
Here's Peyton.
(Xolo laughing)
What the.
Oh, we both, we both took.
(Xolo laughs).
Alright, I see you, Peyton. I see you.
- You see me? What is that?
- I, you know what, I just,
I wanted to shade in the eyebrows
but then they just ended up looking like old Cheetos.
But look, your eyes are sparkling and you have...
- That what you doing?
- Yeah.
- It looks like you've seen a lot.
- [Xolo] Yeah, well, I mean, hey.
- I like the flowers, nice touch.
You really got a lot done.
- There we go.
And I have, I look like one of those drawings
where you're like,
"This is the murder of this crime."
Did you see him?
Did you see him at the crim... - Watch him.
- Exactly. Look out for this man.
- Also your body looks like uh, me from Luis character.
- Yeah, exactly. I have a very large head
and a, not so large body.
- Thanks so much for watching.
Be sure to check out season three of Cobra Kai.
