I personally enjoyed both, each in their own campy way... I would argue Karate Kid is certainly a classic with phrases and references that have easily become part of American (and possibly the world's) culture. It is also the epitome of the 80's underdog/bully film genre. I'm not saying you have to like it, I never would say anything like that to someone, but certainly you can see its influence?
Red Sonja isn't along those lines, though Conan would be.
