yeah, what i really appreciated about kung fu panda is the subtlety. they show glimpses of the past and you can piece together what made tai lung the way he is. it's never explicitly stated that shifu fed his pride and made his existence dependent on the dragon warrior status but the information is right there
@@thuydungie Yeah exactly, you can see it in what they do show you and I really appreciate this kind of story telling. Not everything has to be explicitly thrown in your face for it to be clear~
The teacher may have had a role but that never means he meant for his student to turn physically violent. While I understand the villain's anger for being set up to be the dragon warrior to only be disappointed for not being selected, that never means lashing out that anger physically against someone to the point of hurting and almost killing his teacher. I think the teacher took too much responsibility for his actions while the villain took none. I think he blames himself for not noticing some red flags from the villain prior and wishes he could have guided him in a better path. Unfortunately, in the end, it's the villain's choice to attack.
Dylan has to be one of the most consistent content creators I’ve ever seen. Uploading a movie commentary every Monday without fail for several years is very impressive.
There is actually an explanation of why Tai Lung is still strong after 20 years. In the movie, Tigress says that the dragon warrior can survive with nothing but the dew of a single ginkgo leaf and the energy of the universe, so it makes sense that Tai Lung is jacked cause he was potentially the dragon warrior.
Dylan blaming the fact that he doesn’t know that a snake is called a serpent because he went to a fake college will forever be his excuse for anything he doesn’t know 😂
2 things 1. Shifu is a red panda 2. Tai lung is the most well written villain in the series. The true lesson of the relationship between Shifu and Tailung is how much a parents expectations can affect their children. You said they didn’t show Shifu playing a role in Tailungs turning evil, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Shifu raised tailung as his son. He raised him to believe that it was his destiny to become that dragon warrior so when you spend your entire life with your parent figure/the person you look up to most telling you that you are destined to become something and you believe them going as far as to put every ounce of your soul into living up to their expectations, only for one day they to tell you that it’s actually not your destiny is extremely traumatizing. Tailung was told his entire life that he was destined to become the dragon warrior and the fact that it wasn’t true was simply something he could not face as it would be the same to tell him that his life was a lie. Shifu didn’t really learn his lesson either as when we see how he trained the furious 5 we see that they all also hold the belief that it was their destiny to have one of them become the dragon warrior. However, the difference is that Shifu raised Tailung under much more pressure with higher expectations while he was a lot colder to say tigress during her training. Po represents a change in Shifu as once Shifu finally changes his expectations for what the dragon warrior should be he is finally able to see the potential Po had it really is beautiful. Po in the movie basically represents defying expectations and the scroll being a mirror is to say that everyone is perfect the way they are Tailung couldn’t see this though because at this point he was clouded by the betrayal of his father/mentor.
@@vinnicinhus44 agreed I was just pointing out the lesson within Shifu and Tailung relationship that being how important it is to raise a child with humility Tai lung probably always had some bad in him but I think it was the way Shifu raised him that corrupted him raising him to believe that his value was higher than it actually was and when oogway corrected his view of himself Tailung snapped
the story of tai lung is acutely quite sad cause shifu made him believe he was the one meant to be the dragon warrior and pretty much brainwashed him into it ( like his name "tai lung" means great dragon). So Tai lung being dismissed of the title of dragon warrior makes him believe he is being robbed of something he was suppose to inherit in a way and that he is just a disappointment to his father figure.
Snow leopards are probably the rarest of the big cats. They are found in south and central asia. Kinda makes sense they chose a snow leopard instead of a tiger, which was already taken, but also being rare and jaguar-like.
tigress is a tiger because the furious five are based on the animal forms in kung fu. I agree that snow leopard suited tai lung tho cause jaguars are from south- and central america
Dylan basically predicting the movie but still having a great time shows that tropes and writing predictable/obvious story beats are not inherently bad.
It’s kinda reminds me of what George RR Martin says about storytelling, specifically mysteries. You write a mystery in which the butler’s the killer. You plant clues to show the butler did it. Say you show the story to your friend, the friend guesses halfway through the butler’s the killer. What are you to do? You decide to make the maid the killer. But you don’t change the rest of the story. Wrong move. All that build up shows that the butler is the killer. It doesn’t make sense that the maid did it. In short, a story with proper build up, however predictable, is better than a story trying to be unpredictable for unpredictability’s sake. Story beats and archetypes exist for a reason, as seen in The Hero of a Thousand Faces, we see the same stories across cultures across generations with different tweaks throughout. Idk why I said all that, Hahha. I guess I have George RR on the brain 🤣 Anyway, I agree with what you said.
Honestly this is my favorite role that Jack Black has done. Po was literally made for Jack Black and he fit him so well. I remember seeing this movie as a kid and it’s still 10/10
Dylan continually saying "he's a bear, bear's are fierce"...he needs to watch compilations of pandas being clumsy. I find it hard to believe they're real animals, it honestly just looks like a human in a panda suit 😂
The only reason why they are like that is because of the bamboo they eat. Bamboo isn't actually good for them and slows them down. If they didn't they'd be pretty dangerous and aggressive.
the whole kungfu panda trilogy is so well written, the first movie setting of the story line, second movie explaining the past and the third movie (my favorite) bringing everything together.
Y’all better like the hell out of this video because I need to see Dylan’s movie commentary to Kung Fu Panda 2. That movie is a masterpiece and one of my favorite animated movies of all time. It has no right being as good as it is, so y’all better get him to watch it! NO RECOMMENDATIONS THOUGH!
I think the reason why you didn't hear much of a sound effect for when Shifu hit the pillar is probably because due to his weight. Shifu is definitely way lighter than Po, so it kinda makes sense that you wouldn't hear more of an impact from him hitting the pillar than Po getting pounded into the earth.
Dylan talking about Po being a bear who should be able to defeat anyone and forgetting that he is in fact a panda and they are a hazard to themselves 😂
@@checksanity I'm aware that Pandas are bears and that they can be dangerous as all wild animals. But Pandas are also one of the peaceful animals and him looking at grizzly and talk about Po is funny. And no one underestimating the story because Po (peaceful, clumsy panda) begin a Dragon Warrior is supposed to be funny and a that's the point of it.
The fact that Dylan is guessing the emotional plot beats of this movie, right down to the correlation between the Dragon Scroll and the secret ingredient soup, is hilariously insane to me
When they're eating together Tigress says something like "it is said that the dragon warrior can survive eating nothing more than... (can't remember the line)" so I think that's a little hint of why Tai Lung is still in good shape even if they fed him little food, he was trained to be the dragon warrior after all.
This whole "I am a professional movie watcher" kinda started as a joke, but here Dylan is again predicting the whole ass plot of the movie 10 minutes in.
I was constantly checking the comments everytime he made *another* perfect prediction. I was almost expecting that he confessed he already watched it towards the end.
I know we only get edited parts of Dylan but like... low key, this man is hella smart. This is the first video in a LONG time where he's gotten a word wrong. He keeps using words, looking them up, and being super proud he's using them correctly - but also Dylan is incredibly good at picking apart the underlying themes and motivations of characters in these commentaries. He says he's concerned he's getting dumber, but honestly, he seems pretty well educated in his chosen field of study to me.
I think that's one of my favorite parts about Dylan. He's genuinely really smart but he's so down to earth and funny that he never actually rubs it in anybody's faces. It's just another one of his hilarious and awesome qualities.
conspiracy theory: Dylan has already seen all these movies but he forgets that he has seen them so that's why he predicts everything. Dylan does not predict..... he just remembers
i love how stylized the animation is in this movie! i think we’ve gotten so attracted to realism that we forgot how creative and exciting animation can be!
This is an INCREDIBLY detailed series. And they did REALLY well with it. It’s true you called a lot of story beats, even down to the lines, but this was such an intelligent film that blew people away. Shifu is a Red Panda. The Furious 5 are all after actual styles of combat, and each use them like their own animal instead of them being purely stand ins for people. And Po learned Dragon Style. Bears are among the best land predators on earth. Definitely the best one on our continent. Tigers are the true kings of the jungle over lions honestly. And I’d say Bears are in their wheelhouse. Pandas I feel are much LESS powerful bears, but they are bears nonetheless. So there is reason to doubt him since they are notoriously lazy animals. Crocodiles are hard to categorize. So let’s just hold them different as reptiles. Snow Leopards are ferocious no doubt, and 20 years goes to show how well he was trained. Reflexes don’t dull, and he was carrying those huge boulders on both sides when his body was trained to hold such weight. Not to mention the position he was forced in would require a strong core and legs. So yeah. Aside from the eating (which they state isn’t a factor for whatever reason) remaining in such a position of captivity actually could be seen as physically beneficial. Like a forced yoga pose. Plus subtle movements seem to be as much his specialty as brute force. And also Tai Lung was shown to be a prodigy with few flaws as he grew up in combat. So getting constantly praised kept him reaching higher and higher until he fell into a state of entitlement. Which is why he broke. The animation is stellar, and it’s totally worth watching the 2nd and 3rd movies.
Giant pandas aren’t actually scientifically classified as bears. It’s a misconception since they have the same shape. I’m not a scientist, but I think it might be bc pandas are vegetarian while bears are omnivores. But I’m not sure.
Okay. I just looked it up, and apparently they changed it since I was in school. Apparently, pandas are bears after all. Either that or my school has the same credibility as Dylan’s lol.
@@cowfreezer7099 I was about to get stuck between angry and INCREDIBLY amused I made a similar mistake actually. I came out with a video where I stated an orca was a whale in part of my analysis and was corrected that Orcas are the worlds largest dolphins. And I was so confused because they are literally nicknamed Killer Whales. Science is weird. And it’s hard to keep up. It changes RAPIDLY compared to math and English, so no one’s blaming anyone here.
@@Kaempfdog I think English, or well language in general, is closer to science in regards to how quickly it can evolve. That said, I get your point. :)
@@cowfreezer7099 Yeah, they’re grouped as a bear, and they’re the most docile, of all the *bears*. They can still seriously harm a person if they feel threatened. As you said, they’re still a wild animal. I wouldn’t describe them as lazy, so much as not aggressive unless provoked. They’re still built like carnivores, they just prefer bamboo and such. They will eat meat if their preferred food it scarce, so they’re still omnivores. It’s likely that tendency to underestimate panda’s, that it was the animal chosen.
Hi Dylan! I’ve been watching your channel since Dylan will not Participate was started. I just wanted to let you know how much you have impacted my life, anytime I’m going through a bad time your videos have always been there to cheer me up. Thank you for everything you do Dylan!
Imagine if Dylan looked up the cast afterwards. The Tigress is voiced by Angelina Jolie. That makes the thing more awkward and I would've loved seeing his reaction finding out.
I don’t see how that makes it awkward. I would say that’s a double win since he has a kink for Maleficent who was also played by Angelina Jolie. I’m just upset Jacki Chan doesn’t get the hype he deserves for being in the Kung Fu Panda Franchise.
@@AdamIshak01 Awkward because he's still turned on by an animated figure. And we want to justify that because of who voices her? Well... Also Maleficent was live action Angelina. No doubts of getting hot there.
@@taurinstraiter2325 he’s mentioned before that he’s been turned on by both the animated and Kingdom Hearts Maleficent as well, and that the Descendants version of her is disappointing. He’s had a thing for the character even before Angelina played her in the live action, which probably just enhanced it, but it’s fitting how once again he’s interested in Jolie’s character. Not to mention having cat like features/qualities is already sexualized as well, i.e. Catwoman, all the sexy black cat, tiger, leopard, etc Halloween and role playing costumes. Tigress at least is a bit more human vs let’s say Kovu from Lion King 2 where a lot of people admit having feelings for him. After seeing some of those Kovu comments and Dylan’s Little Mermaid video, he’s so much more tame in this 😂 I feel like this is the one kink of Dylan’s that actually makes sense if anything lmao. Plus it’s Dylan, he thrives on awkward humor :)
Dylan not knowing that pandas are, indeed, the dumbest bear out there is the funniest thing ever. Pandas have no interest in reproducing, they don’t even like finding mates, and so they endanger their own species. Also, they are meant to be carnivores but they… choose *not* to?? Their bodies can’t digest cellulose properly, yet they are hanging out with bamboo (which is literally bathed in cellulose), so they have really low energy and are relatively weak. So yeah, Po’s really as physically challenged as he’s made out to be 😭
Kung Fu Panda 2 is by far my favourite in the franchise. Emotionally, the stakes are higher and the composition of the score is magic!! Hopefully we’ll get to see Dylan react to it 😊
Dylan calling a jaguar cool but a leopard lame when they're arguably the most similar looking big cats out there is so funny to me! Like there's no doubt that if you showed him a picture of the two that he wouldn't be able to tell the difference
I think the reason one is called a leopard and the other a jaguar or panther is geography. If I remember correctly they're both members of panthera. Which is a family I believe. Even a black panther is actually a jaguar. I could be wrong so don't quote me on it.
@@acelovesdiyschristopher7023 yes! You’re right that they’re both members of panthera, which is a genus so they’re very closely related! But they are different species. What’s interesting is that, despite being two different species, panthers can be either a jaguar or a leopard!
@@acelovesdiyschristopher7023 (for cats/ Felids/Felidae) If it Roars, it is a Panther (Both Panthera and Pantherinae exist. All Panthera is within Pantherinae. I am referring to Pantherinae) (Jaguar, Tiger, Lion, Leopard, Snow Leopard...) (Snow Leopards are actually closer to Tigers than Leopards, so I petition we rename them Ice Tigers) If it purrs, it's Felinae/ a feline (Domestic cat, Cheetah, Cougar, Lynx, Ocelot, Servals...) (Cheetah's are not capable of roaring, but they can chirp. Cougars can't roar, but they try anyways, and it sounds like a human woman screaming in terror.)
I just realized at 23:18 you can see that the dragon scroll is reflective, showing that the person reading it is the secret, I love that attention to detail.
19:06 Tai Lung had plenty of time for *meditation* which is an important part of kung fu, especially in fantasy when you get to the "magical" moves like Tai Lung used when he turned the Furious Five's bodies blue for a second
I feel like Dylan is going to like Shen (Kung Fu Panda 2’s villain) better than Tai Lung. I think they did a better job adding to Shen the emotional weight and ties that Tai Lung kinda lacked.
I think you should definitely check out the second Kung Fu Panda, I think you’d really enjoy the villain more and in my opinion the story and action is just as good if not better than the first film.
I’m so glad someone brought this up- not to mention all the animals are also native to China as well so all around canon and accuracy for these characters.
dylan is fr the only youtuber whose sponsoring segments i do not skip past. my love for this channel and dylans supreme ass comedy cannot be expressed in words.
if you do watch kung fu panda 2 i have a feeling you’re really gonna like the villain. he’s easily the coolest one of the three movies and his fighting style is so unique to the kind of animal he is
I love that his point about him getting stronger while in prison makes sense, until you take into account the second movie and the meditation for inner peace which makes you stronger.
I'm literally dead rn When Po broke the vase containing the souls and Dylan said "He broke this plate thing." I said "Dylan that's not a freaking plate it's a vase." and as soon as he says "since we're on the subject" to which he immediately goes into a sponsership I actually facepalmed my desk and shouted "Oh my f-cking god Dylan." This man is too damn good with these things, I will never get over it.
I really hope you continue this trilogy because the second Kung fu panda is arguably the best one. The villain is fantastic in my opinion and it would definitely be up your alley, Dylan.
I love how most video commentaries start with reasoning behind the choice and Dylan just starts with, “ my couch is on its side in my bathroom, and look at my shirt, it’s amazing”
the whole trilogy is amazing, I can tell you the amounts of times I’ve cried to some of the scenes the story is beautiful, the characters are all so well written, is funny, is relatable, truly q masterpiece in my opinion. Oh and the artwork and animation chefs kiss.
Actually the post credit scene is connected to the story. When master oogway planted the seed and said that it will grow when u water and take care of it just like po . The seed has grown in the post credit scene as po as grown as well. Pretty cool detail
"Her eyes, oh my god, they're like ferocious... but like in a sexy way." I literally choked on my drink and now my throat hurts lmfao thanks for that Dylan 😂
Happy Monday, everyone. Kung Fu Panda is a movie that has literally impacted my whole life so I’m LIVIN’ for this commentary, can’t wait for you to check out the following movies. Love your content! You make me laugh like nobody else.
Right? The way everyone praises him for guessing the plot and I’m over here like, “He’s seen it before though? He’s not some kind of movie-watching genius!” I guess people just like to think everything on the internet is real. 🤷♀️ Edit: Absolutely hilarious how everyone is personally replying to me instead of the OP who I was just agreeing with. Again, the internet is weird. 🤷♀️
@@HerHollyness or maybe its because when you watch a lot of movies/tv shows you get accustomed to common tropes and storylines. Kung Fu Panda is so god damn easy to see the direction of where its going if youve watched an average shounen anime or other martial arts movies. Its just as likely that Dylan is just good at predicting plot points as it is that he's faking his reactions.
Tbf the plot really isn’t that innovative to not make some good guesses (he also made some wrong ones) when you’ve got a good knowledge of storytelling structures and patterns after consuming a lot of fiction of any media. I read and watch a bunch too and his guesses reminded me of jokes and tropes that I saw employed in stories so I wasn’t surprised when it turned out he was accurate.
It's so much fun to have just recently found Dylan and have so many awesome, hilarious videos to watch. And then it's a bummer to be all caught up and have to wait a week or two for a new one. Sometimes I just go back and rewatch some favorites while waiting for a new video. Thanks for all the laughs Dylan!
So many neat facts about this film. Even so far as the colors. Tai Lung has gold eyes because gold is deemed for only the dragon warrior and he views himself as the dragon warrior. His color is blue. When he goes up the prison, each level loses its red hue and has a blue shade to indicate he has taken it down. And red represents all heroes. The torches had a red hue, but the tiger also wears red to show how much she cares. As well, Tai Lung was once not considered scary enough. Originally, he hadn't laid waste to the valley. In test screenings, many children felt bad for him. He was promised a thing, didn't get it, tried to steal it, then was put in prison for 20 years. It felt excessive. The turtle shell that Tai Lung is trapped in is made with acupuncture. Making it so he can't move. You'll learn about chi later on, at least, Kung Fu Panda's version of chi. They talk about how one needs to find inner peace and to spend time alone to find it. While I don't think he exactly achieved inner peace and he hasn't mastered chi, it is an example of how staying still can add to your strength in this universe. Using breathing techniques to work out the body as well. Annnnd despite how people usually feel about the 3rd movie, I enjoy it a lot. Even more the second movie. I'm kinda sad that they're making a 4th, as the 3rd felt like a proper send off.
this was the funniest commentary yet. i was dying laughing the whole time. I think its cause this movie a childhood favorite of mine. they way you predicted the whole plot and still found it funny just speaks to how good this franchise is. and the 2nd and 3rd ones are connected to Po's story so it isn't a separate story with the same character . but man i think the 3rd movie was the funniest!!

I learned that when I was 5😂
"he hit the magic code on his stomach to turn him off" has got to be one of the best things you've ever said, my good sir

@@sheyannev2757 please educate your self

so perseptive, yet so uneducated
2 things
1. Shifu is a red panda
2. Tai lung is the most well written villain in the series. The true lesson of the relationship between Shifu and Tailung is how much a parents expectations can affect their children. You said they didn’t show Shifu playing a role in Tailungs turning evil, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Shifu raised tailung as his son. He raised him to believe that it was his destiny to become that dragon warrior so when you spend your entire life with your parent figure/the person you look up to most telling you that you are destined to become something and you believe them going as far as to put every ounce of your soul into living up to their expectations, only for one day they to tell you that it’s actually not your destiny is extremely traumatizing. Tailung was told his entire life that he was destined to become the dragon warrior and the fact that it wasn’t true was simply something he could not face as it would be the same to tell him that his life was a lie. Shifu didn’t really learn his lesson either as when we see how he trained the furious 5 we see that they all also hold the belief that it was their destiny to have one of them become the dragon warrior. However, the difference is that Shifu raised Tailung under much more pressure with higher expectations while he was a lot colder to say tigress during her training. Po represents a change in Shifu as once Shifu finally changes his expectations for what the dragon warrior should be he is finally able to see the potential Po had it really is beautiful. Po in the movie basically represents defying expectations and the scroll being a mirror is to say that everyone is perfect the way they are Tailung couldn’t see this though because at this point he was clouded by the betrayal of his father/mentor.
Well said 👏
This was so well put and one of the reasons why I love this movie
Buuuuuut
It's very important to point that Tai Lung was not justified and was completely in the wrong for doing what he did.
@@vinnicinhus44 agreed I was just pointing out the lesson within Shifu and Tailung relationship that being how important it is to raise a child with humility Tai lung probably always had some bad in him but I think it was the way Shifu raised him that corrupted him raising him to believe that his value was higher than it actually was and when oogway corrected his view of himself Tailung snapped
A red panda is closer to a rat than a bear, so while probably not intended, Dylan is somewhat right.
the story of tai lung is acutely quite sad cause shifu made him believe he was the one meant to be the dragon warrior and pretty much brainwashed him into it ( like his name "tai lung" means great dragon). So Tai lung being dismissed of the title of dragon warrior makes him believe he is being robbed of something he was suppose to inherit in a way and that he is just a disappointment to his father figure.
It's both fascinating and frustrating how Dylan can so accurately predict these movies, I'm all here for it.
Also Tigress is the new Ursula confirmed.
Wait so angelina jolie will be playing ursula?
@@J-R-2000 No, Dylan had a crush on Ursula
@@snackeater4990 ahh lol 😂 I remember now hahaha i thought that disney chose angelina jolie as the new ursula in lil mermaid remake hahaha
@@J-R-2000wait tigress is angelina Jolie??
Snow leopards are probably the rarest of the big cats. They are found in south and central asia. Kinda makes sense they chose a snow leopard instead of a tiger, which was already taken, but also being rare and jaguar-like.
also, the movie is set in animal China, so it makes sense that Jaguars aren't in this movie since they aren't native in Asia.
I think the Clouded Leopard is one of the rarest of cats. I love snow leopards!
Beep, bop... I'm the Philosophy Bot. Here, have a quote:
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle"
~ Socrates
tigress is a tiger because the furious five are based on the animal forms in kung fu. I agree that snow leopard suited tai lung tho cause jaguars are from south- and central america
the movie: *kung-fu* panda
dylan: a bear that does karate
Loveeee😂
And he said it just before karate too 😂 it was so funny
Dylan basically predicting the movie but still having a great time shows that tropes and writing predictable/obvious story beats are not inherently bad.
It’s kinda reminds me of what George RR Martin says about storytelling, specifically mysteries.
You write a mystery in which the butler’s the killer. You plant clues to show the butler did it. Say you show the story to your friend, the friend guesses halfway through the butler’s the killer. What are you to do?
You decide to make the maid the killer. But you don’t change the rest of the story.
Wrong move. All that build up shows that the butler is the killer. It doesn’t make sense that the maid did it.
In short, a story with proper build up, however predictable, is better than a story trying to be unpredictable for unpredictability’s sake.
Story beats and archetypes exist for a reason, as seen in The Hero of a Thousand Faces, we see the same stories across cultures across generations with different tweaks throughout.
Idk why I said all that, Hahha. I guess I have George RR on the brain 🤣
Anyway, I agree with what you said.
Or it shows Dylans own taste in stories.
@@jackierosas9593 he should've told the writers of Gossip Girl that....

Honestly this is my favorite role that Jack Black has done. Po was literally made for Jack Black and he fit him so well.
I remember seeing this movie as a kid and it’s still 10/10
And he is epic in School of Rock!!
Even tho I partially agree with you, I can't help but love him in Jumanji just as much.
more of a nacho libre fan myself
Bernie was good.
Same with Ian Mcshane (the voice actor of Tai Lung)
Dylan continually saying "he's a bear, bear's are fierce"...he needs to watch compilations of pandas being clumsy. I find it hard to believe they're real animals, it honestly just looks like a human in a panda suit 😂
This is by far the best description of a panda I’ve ever heard
It's like they're actively trying to be the modern dodo birds.
The only reason why they are like that is because of the bamboo they eat. Bamboo isn't actually good for them and slows them down. If they didn't they'd be pretty dangerous and aggressive.
the whole kungfu panda trilogy is so well written, the first movie setting of the story line, second movie explaining the past and the third movie (my favorite) bringing everything together.
What makes the third one your favorite? I'm curious because people usually choose the other two
@@itzelwisteria1819 the whole power of chi, reasoning for why he is the dragon warrior and what the purpose of the dragon warrior is, just makes me go

@@shakespeareangentleman do you mean the arrival of kai? BECAUSE YES????? omg
Y’all better like the hell out of this video because I need to see Dylan’s movie commentary to Kung Fu Panda 2. That movie is a masterpiece and one of my favorite animated movies of all time. It has no right being as good as it is, so y’all better get him to watch it! NO RECOMMENDATIONS THOUGH!
I think the reason why you didn't hear much of a sound effect for when Shifu hit the pillar is probably because due to his weight. Shifu is definitely way lighter than Po, so it kinda makes sense that you wouldn't hear more of an impact from him hitting the pillar than Po getting pounded into the earth.
Dylan talking about Po being a bear who should be able to defeat anyone and forgetting that he is in fact a panda and they are a hazard to themselves 😂
He’s right about treating a panda like a bear, though him being unfamiliar with people underestimating pandas loses a level of the story.
@@checksanity I'm aware that Pandas are bears and that they can be dangerous as all wild animals. But Pandas are also one of the peaceful animals and him looking at grizzly and talk about Po is funny. And no one underestimating the story because Po (peaceful, clumsy panda) begin a Dragon Warrior is supposed to be funny and a that's the point of it.
The fact that Dylan is guessing the emotional plot beats of this movie, right down to the correlation between the Dragon Scroll and the secret ingredient soup, is hilariously insane to me
When they're eating together Tigress says something like "it is said that the dragon warrior can survive eating nothing more than... (can't remember the line)" so I think that's a little hint of why Tai Lung is still in good shape even if they fed him little food, he was trained to be the dragon warrior after all.
Let’s give a round of applause for Dylan on actually going out and buying a new shirt, cos who knows when that’s gonna happen again👏🏻
This whole "I am a professional movie watcher" kinda started as a joke, but here Dylan is again predicting the whole ass plot of the movie 10 minutes in.
I was constantly checking the comments everytime he made *another* perfect prediction. I was almost expecting that he confessed he already watched it towards the end.
I know we only get edited parts of Dylan but like... low key, this man is hella smart. This is the first video in a LONG time where he's gotten a word wrong. He keeps using words, looking them up, and being super proud he's using them correctly - but also Dylan is incredibly good at picking apart the underlying themes and motivations of characters in these commentaries.
He says he's concerned he's getting dumber, but honestly, he seems pretty well educated in his chosen field of study to me.
I think that's one of my favorite parts about Dylan. He's genuinely really smart but he's so down to earth and funny that he never actually rubs it in anybody's faces. It's just another one of his hilarious and awesome qualities.
conspiracy theory: Dylan has already seen all these movies but he forgets that he has seen them so that's why he predicts everything.
Dylan does not predict..... he just remembers
Exhibit A: Gone Girl video. I rest my case your honuor.
definitely felt that vibe for this video lolol
I love how everyone is joking about Dylan being consistent . That's our way of showing we've missed you
i love how stylized the animation is in this movie! i think we’ve gotten so attracted to realism that we forgot how creative and exciting animation can be!
This is an INCREDIBLY detailed series. And they did REALLY well with it. It’s true you called a lot of story beats, even down to the lines, but this was such an intelligent film that blew people away.
Shifu is a Red Panda.
The Furious 5 are all after actual styles of combat, and each use them like their own animal instead of them being purely stand ins for people.
And Po learned Dragon Style.
Bears are among the best land predators on earth. Definitely the best one on our continent. Tigers are the true kings of the jungle over lions honestly. And I’d say Bears are in their wheelhouse. Pandas I feel are much LESS powerful bears, but they are bears nonetheless. So there is reason to doubt him since they are notoriously lazy animals. Crocodiles are hard to categorize. So let’s just hold them different as reptiles.
Snow Leopards are ferocious no doubt, and 20 years goes to show how well he was trained. Reflexes don’t dull, and he was carrying those huge boulders on both sides when his body was trained to hold such weight. Not to mention the position he was forced in would require a strong core and legs. So yeah. Aside from the eating (which they state isn’t a factor for whatever reason) remaining in such a position of captivity actually could be seen as physically beneficial. Like a forced yoga pose. Plus subtle movements seem to be as much his specialty as brute force. And also Tai Lung was shown to be a prodigy with few flaws as he grew up in combat. So getting constantly praised kept him reaching higher and higher until he fell into a state of entitlement. Which is why he broke.
The animation is stellar, and it’s totally worth watching the 2nd and 3rd movies.
Giant pandas aren’t actually scientifically classified as bears. It’s a misconception since they have the same shape. I’m not a scientist, but I think it might be bc pandas are vegetarian while bears are omnivores. But I’m not sure.
Okay. I just looked it up, and apparently they changed it since I was in school. Apparently, pandas are bears after all. Either that or my school has the same credibility as Dylan’s lol.
@@cowfreezer7099 I was about to get stuck between angry and INCREDIBLY amused I made a similar mistake actually. I came out with a video where I stated an orca was a whale in part of my analysis and was corrected that Orcas are the worlds largest dolphins. And I was so confused because they are literally nicknamed Killer Whales.
Science is weird. And it’s hard to keep up. It changes RAPIDLY compared to math and English, so no one’s blaming anyone here.
@@Kaempfdog I think English, or well language in general, is closer to science in regards to how quickly it can evolve.
That said, I get your point. :)
@@cowfreezer7099 Yeah, they’re grouped as a bear, and they’re the most docile, of all the *bears*. They can still seriously harm a person if they feel threatened. As you said, they’re still a wild animal.
I wouldn’t describe them as lazy, so much as not aggressive unless provoked. They’re still built like carnivores, they just prefer bamboo and such. They will eat meat if their preferred food it scarce, so they’re still omnivores.
It’s likely that tendency to underestimate panda’s, that it was the animal chosen.
"Are pandas looked down upon???" no but dylan are you forgetting that pandas can be so lazy that they don't even reproduce to save their species
Bruhhhh ToT I'm dead. I didn't even think about that !

Imagine if Dylan looked up the cast afterwards. The Tigress is voiced by Angelina Jolie. That makes the thing more awkward and I would've loved seeing his reaction finding out.
I was waiting for him to watch the end credits Just for that 😫 hahaha
I don’t see how that makes it awkward. I would say that’s a double win since he has a kink for Maleficent who was also played by Angelina Jolie. I’m just upset Jacki Chan doesn’t get the hype he deserves for being in the Kung Fu Panda Franchise.
@@AdamIshak01 Awkward because he's still turned on by an animated figure. And we want to justify that because of who voices her? Well... Also Maleficent was live action Angelina. No doubts of getting hot there.
@@taurinstraiter2325 he’s mentioned before that he’s been turned on by both the animated and Kingdom Hearts Maleficent as well, and that the Descendants version of her is disappointing. He’s had a thing for the character even before Angelina played her in the live action, which probably just enhanced it, but it’s fitting how once again he’s interested in Jolie’s character. Not to mention having cat like features/qualities is already sexualized as well, i.e. Catwoman, all the sexy black cat, tiger, leopard, etc Halloween and role playing costumes. Tigress at least is a bit more human vs let’s say Kovu from Lion King 2 where a lot of people admit having feelings for him. After seeing some of those Kovu comments and Dylan’s Little Mermaid video, he’s so much more tame in this 😂 I feel like this is the one kink of Dylan’s that actually makes sense if anything lmao. Plus it’s Dylan, he thrives on awkward humor :)

Dylan not knowing that pandas are, indeed, the dumbest bear out there is the funniest thing ever.
Pandas have no interest in reproducing, they don’t even like finding mates, and so they endanger their own species. Also, they are meant to be carnivores but they… choose *not* to?? Their bodies can’t digest cellulose properly, yet they are hanging out with bamboo (which is literally bathed in cellulose), so they have really low energy and are relatively weak. So yeah, Po’s really as physically challenged as he’s made out to be 😭
mother pandas sometimes kill their newborns because they're too annoying lol

@Emily An FR
Dylan calling a jaguar cool but a leopard lame when they're arguably the most similar looking big cats out there is so funny to me! Like there's no doubt that if you showed him a picture of the two that he wouldn't be able to tell the difference
I think the reason one is called a leopard and the other a jaguar or panther is geography. If I remember correctly they're both members of panthera. Which is a family I believe. Even a black panther is actually a jaguar. I could be wrong so don't quote me on it.
@@acelovesdiyschristopher7023 yes! You’re right that they’re both members of panthera, which is a genus so they’re very closely related! But they are different species. What’s interesting is that, despite being two different species, panthers can be either a jaguar or a leopard!
@@alexschofield8085 exactly. They're so close. Thnx for the genus reminder.
Snow leopards are the coolest and bestest animals and u cant change my mind
@@acelovesdiyschristopher7023 (for cats/ Felids/Felidae)
If it Roars, it is a Panther (Both Panthera and Pantherinae exist. All Panthera is within Pantherinae. I am referring to Pantherinae) (Jaguar, Tiger, Lion, Leopard, Snow Leopard...) (Snow Leopards are actually closer to Tigers than Leopards, so I petition we rename them Ice Tigers)
If it purrs, it's Felinae/ a feline (Domestic cat, Cheetah, Cougar, Lynx, Ocelot, Servals...) (Cheetah's are not capable of roaring, but they can chirp. Cougars can't roar, but they try anyways, and it sounds like a human woman screaming in terror.)
I just realized at 23:18 you can see that the dragon scroll is reflective, showing that the person reading it is the secret, I love that attention to detail.
19:06 Tai Lung had plenty of time for *meditation* which is an important part of kung fu, especially in fantasy when you get to the "magical" moves like Tai Lung used when he turned the Furious Five's bodies blue for a second
I feel like Dylan is going to like Shen (Kung Fu Panda 2’s villain) better than Tai Lung. I think they did a better job adding to Shen the emotional weight and ties that Tai Lung kinda lacked.
I absolutely love the second movie and yes, I agree, Shen is such an interesting villain
The fact that Dylan didn't draw a parallel to Kill Bill with the five point palm exploding heart technique frustrates me SO much
I think you should definitely check out the second Kung Fu Panda, I think you’d really enjoy the villain more and in my opinion the story and action is just as good if not better than the first film.
absolutely agree, the villain in the second one is my number 1 favorite and also my personal animal crush
Definitely! Also i absolutely love Gary Oldman's voice!
Plus the family storyline 🥺
NO RECOMMENDATIONS
@@evastaver6420 your personal what
Those animals being chosen is on purpose as they represent different styles of Kung Fu. MatPat talked about it in his recent video about the movie
I’m so glad someone brought this up- not to mention all the animals are also native to China as well so all around canon and accuracy for these characters.
dylan is fr the only youtuber whose sponsoring segments i do not skip past. my love for this channel and dylans supreme ass comedy cannot be expressed in words.
Dylan literally is the only youtuber I can watch without feeling like I have to multitask to enjoy it 😂
omg for real 😂
his videos are like three tasks at once in terms of entertainment
if you do watch kung fu panda 2 i have a feeling you’re really gonna like the villain. he’s easily the coolest one of the three movies and his fighting style is so unique to the kind of animal he is
When the world needed him most, He returned.
My current favorite Dylan moment is when he smoothly transitions into the ad, and you can tell he’s smiling ear to ear every time he does that lol

The Kung Fu Panda series is such a gem I’m so happy to see Dylan diving into it !!!
I HATE when I’m enjoying a video and in the middle there’s a extended add ….but I like the way Dylan does it it’s funny to me 😂
THANK YOU DYLAN FOR FEEDING US WITH PREMIUM CONTENT
Omg yess
I love that his point about him getting stronger while in prison makes sense, until you take into account the second movie and the meditation for inner peace which makes you stronger.
Dylan's commitment to bring up his fake college every video is stronger than most relationships and buying himself new clothes.
I'm literally dead rn
When Po broke the vase containing the souls and Dylan said "He broke this plate thing." I said "Dylan that's not a freaking plate it's a vase." and as soon as he says "since we're on the subject" to which he immediately goes into a sponsership I actually facepalmed my desk and shouted "Oh my f-cking god Dylan."
This man is too damn good with these things, I will never get over it.
whenever he does this I just cackle like a madman
I really hope you continue this trilogy because the second Kung fu panda is arguably the best one. The villain is fantastic in my opinion and it would definitely be up your alley, Dylan.
Yesssss
"So demanding." Laughs then "not sexy, not sexy. You know what's sexy? Humans."
That dropped me on the floor and sent me into a different realm. 😂
The way Dylan basically predicts the entire plot of every movie amazes me each time💀 might as well watch it on silent and “create” the dialogue😭
the tie long joke is genuinely the funniest one I've ever seen, I've replayed it five times and it never gets old it's one of my faves
I love how most video commentaries start with reasoning behind the choice and Dylan just starts with, “ my couch is on its side in my bathroom, and look at my shirt, it’s amazing”
the whole trilogy is amazing, I can tell you the amounts of times I’ve cried to some of the scenes the story is beautiful, the characters are all so well written, is funny, is relatable, truly q masterpiece in my opinion. Oh and the artwork and animation chefs kiss.
The fact that Dylan is my age but these cartoon movies weren’t his childhood saddens me but I’m glad I’m here to watch him enjoy them now
Actually the post credit scene is connected to the story. When master oogway planted the seed and said that it will grow when u water and take care of it just like po . The seed has grown in the post credit scene as po as grown as well. Pretty cool detail
"Her eyes, oh my god, they're like ferocious... but like in a sexy way."

At 5:50, the fact that his Goose Father can open the door so easily after Panda has tried so much but couldn't... hmm🧐
Kung Fu Panda is probably one of the funniest animated movies that will never get old for me
Dylan having a picture of squidward in his bathroom makes so much sense for some reason
Every time Dylan calls the red panda Shifu a “rat,” I died a little inside.
dylan is that one friend who pretends not to have seen a movie and than makes himself look like a genius for guessing the plot

@@HerHollyness or maybe its because when you watch a lot of movies/tv shows you get accustomed to common tropes and storylines.

Its just as likely that Dylan is just good at predicting plot points as it is that he's faking his reactions.
@@HerHollyness In what video does he mention that he watched it already?
Tbf the plot really isn’t that innovative to not make some good guesses (he also made some wrong ones) when you’ve got a good knowledge of storytelling structures and patterns after consuming a lot of fiction of any media. I read and watch a bunch too and his guesses reminded me of jokes and tropes that I saw employed in stories so I wasn’t surprised when it turned out he was accurate.

It's so much fun to have just recently found Dylan and have so many awesome, hilarious videos to watch. And then it's a bummer to be all caught up and have to wait a week or two for a new one.

glad we're getting so much dylan content this week
So many neat facts about this film. Even so far as the colors. Tai Lung has gold eyes because gold is deemed for only the dragon warrior and he views himself as the dragon warrior. His color is blue. When he goes up the prison, each level loses its red hue and has a blue shade to indicate he has taken it down. And red represents all heroes. The torches had a red hue, but the tiger also wears red to show how much she cares.
As well, Tai Lung was once not considered scary enough. Originally, he hadn't laid waste to the valley. In test screenings, many children felt bad for him. He was promised a thing, didn't get it, tried to steal it, then was put in prison for 20 years. It felt excessive.
The turtle shell that Tai Lung is trapped in is made with acupuncture. Making it so he can't move. You'll learn about chi later on, at least, Kung Fu Panda's version of chi. They talk about how one needs to find inner peace and to spend time alone to find it. While I don't think he exactly achieved inner peace and he hasn't mastered chi, it is an example of how staying still can add to your strength in this universe. Using breathing techniques to work out the body as well.
Annnnd despite how people usually feel about the 3rd movie, I enjoy it a lot. Even more the second movie. I'm kinda sad that they're making a 4th, as the 3rd felt like a proper send off.
I LOVE this and the second movie! You should definitely watch the second, if you want a terribly sad backstory and extremely evil villain. 😄
(even if you don't make a commentary and just watch on your own time!)
No recommendations!!!!
I admire Dylan so much for his consistency of posting videos on both of his channels.
this was the funniest commentary yet. i was dying laughing the whole time. I think its cause this movie a childhood favorite of mine. they way you predicted the whole plot and still found it funny just speaks to how good this franchise is. and the 2nd and 3rd ones are connected to Po's story so it isn't a separate story with the same character . but man i think the 3rd movie was the funniest!!
Oh cool. I havent watched the third one
