I believe co-director Stephanie Stine actually talked about the behind the scenes of King Fu Panda 4, and that she was constantly belittled for having ideas that fans would clearly eat up because the writers thought themselves smarter than her (she put it in a much much nicer way). Which if true, makes me hope those same writers felt extremely embarrassed with how badly 4 flopped with the writing constantly criticized.
While the writing is…questionable, saying that it flopped is….wrong 500 million to a a budget of 85 million is great Not saying your wrong about the writing….
The most frustrating thing is that The Chameleon *couldve* worked as a dark reflection of Po. She could’ve been an obsessive fan like him, but to a toxic degree where she just expects these masters to treat her as an equal with no effort put in just so she can play out her fantasies, and turn to sorcery when that idea inevitably flops. Every villain has some link to Po, whether that be a direct tie (such as Tai Lung and him with the status of Dragon Warrior, Shen directly genociding his people, and Kai basically being an Oogway who failed to end his power trip), and it’s a damn shame they didn’t do anything with Chameleon to include this link
According to production notes, they DID have an early pitch where Po envisions Shifu being kidnapped by the villain, further motivating him to go to Juniper City. And they even pitched an idea that Tai Lung has his final goodbye to Shifu. They HAD that idea, it just wasn't in the fucking movie smh
I usually complain about fans weaving conspiracy theories, but for once the crew have been weirdly frank about a ton of the questionable decisions for the movie coming directly from the overseer.
Oh it's worse, the execs explicitly ordered the production team to keep these concepts out of the movie under threat of canning the project altogether. They believed that making the movie shallow would make it more marketable and successful. I dunno about you gang, but I see another exec who's entirely divorced from reality ruining something else because he believes that he knows better than anyone else in the world and I'm gonna lose it. 🙃
@@GandalfTheTsaagan I hope they make a Kung Fu Panda 5 where it's just the original plot of Kung fu Panda 4. Let's just erase Kung Fu panda 4 out of existence.
Kung fu panda 2: Obese panda fights random gang and gets PTSD from an icon they wear and then has to defeat an evil bird who hates him and then loses but then he gets all his friends and then they lose and then he gets peace and he wins and happily ever after
Kung fu panda 3: Obese panda beats up ox high on yellow energy and discovers a city full of obese panadas, obese panda bully ox because obese pandas use the power of having five fingers to help rescue obese panda
MAN your KFP4 rewrite is so much more compelling. Tai Lung coming to respect Po, redeem himself, and make up with Shifu alone is super interesting, but there's even more you could do with it! I mean, we never get to see if Tigress and Tai Lung have any opinions on one another being technically siblings. It would be really fun to examine that relationship a little once Tai Lung manages to reconnect with Shifu (and maybe we could finally address Shifu not being the greatest dad to Tigress, while we're at it. Tai Lung was clearly always his golden child, and now that he's back and Tigress never really got to talk things out with her dad, that probably stirs up some unpleasant feelings.) ALSO consider!! There could be a twist where it turns out redeemed!Tai Lung is the perfect candidate for Po's successor, thus kinda bringing him back around. He was Dragon Warrior material all along, he just had to better himself as a person, or something like that. I don't know if it would work exactly, but it'd sure be a hell of a lot more interesting than what we got.
Although you were joking when you said that a "good amount" of the Pandas escaped... For context... Only a FEW Pandas actually survived... Only a FEW of the at least HUNDREDS of Pandas... Put that into perspective, HUNDREDS of an entire species were killed by Shen just because "I think they might beat me one day."
@@leviticusprime4904 Yeah, they're similar in a lot of ways, they're mainly white, have red eyes, are rich, entitled brats who own massive armies who get defeated by a warrior who... Knows Kung Fu(Goku uses Kung Fu moves)... Holy Jesus, feels a lot like the second film was inspired Dragon Ball as well as Chinese culture and war...
I really do feel like Tigress and Tai Lung should have had the duo part instead of Po's dads. They could have been escaping from the chameleon by being in prisoned and it could allow those two characters to be able to talk over their thoughts of the dragon warrior and such and allow them to get more fleshed out. Sadly DreamWorks doesn't like to spend money and thought they could just get rid of the furious five and just bring back Tai Lung as a cameo so that's our reality I guess

@@vengefulbaleYou’ve got a point there. I guess there is a contrast in, say, Shen very quickly stabbing the Wolf Boss in the chest for disobeying him in the second movie in a very quick fashion is different from the weasel villain getting stabbed and it being the focus of the scene. Also, Tai Lung 100% killed some of those prison guards during his escape, let’s be real.
Hello, this is me after watching the entirety of Dragon Knight. Veruca gets stabbed, has a blanket put over her corpse in that same episode, and gets her soul trapped in the ancient sword and comes back in the finale by the final boss. This show is every bit as ridiculous and crazy as OP said it was, but I actually enjoyed it more as it went on. I feel like it went in a more logical direction to expand the Kung Fu Panda world than the fourth movie did.
Wait till people find out Oogway was a near 1000-year old Galapagos Tortoise immigrant not even from China, who invented kung fu. The canon pit is deep.
The one thing I want to be retcon/non canonized in the entirety of the Kung fu panda universe is Tigress having a teenage crush on shifu(Legends of awesomeness)
@@rizie7355 I really wish I was homie, I watched the show avidly when I was younger cause I was really a deep fan and Po literally said it himself when explaining everyone’s deepest kept secrets about them to prove he was the real Po(cause I think his body was stolen through some mystical Kung fu shenanigan)about tigress’s secret which she herself realized it was really him after he said that, to this day It kind of ruins how look at their relationship now
@@yungvoorheez5874 While it's an odd choice and I wouldn't prefer it to be in the show, I don't think it ruins their relationship if she's grown out of it and realized it was a childish crush. Kids get crushes on adults all the time. What matters is the adult absolutely does not reciprocate and puts the child's best interest first.
34:03 whats also stupid about that, ignoring the fact mantis and viper exist and are smaller, is that she just has magic, she really doesnt need to know kung fu, even if she did tho, she is a literal shapeshifter, she doesnt have a character but she sure has a gimmick, yet she didnt use her gimmick to change into a bigger animal and learn kung fu, or search for someone who would teach her, i gaurantee that someone wouldve, since master chicken exists, and hes a chicken.
@@notsyzagts7967 (to prefice, sorry for yapping, didnt realize how much i typed till i finished) nah you don't even need to have seen the other 3 to know, you just need to have common sense. like if your character was discriminated against for being small, making it to where she was unable to learn kung fu since "no one" would teach her, don't make her a literal shape shifter that can turn into anyone. because she can and does just turn into bigger animals. also the whole "stealing people's kung fu" thing is stupid. they treat it like it's magic but it's just a different way to beat someone up. And she specifically chooses to take it from people in the spirit realm, and the 3 main ones were ones that lost. so why wouldn't she want to steal the kung fu of someone who is alive, and known to be win their fights? It would be easier than trying to get this one specific magic staff, from this master of kung fu, inner peace, and chi, who has a good track record of beating people like her, like she couldve used her shape-shifting to catch them off guard and steal their kung fu, and since she's a shape shifter, she would be hard to track down. And worse of all imo, is she isn't just a shape-shifter, she's a sorceress, but she only uses that magic to change appearance, like is that all it does in the kfp universe? She couldn't learn more offensive or defensive magic? The movie is dumb enough already, but there's so much to say about how bad the villain is.
@@X-SPONGEDdude i don’t know why this is hard for you to understand. Yes, po found inner peace. But in order to maintain it, he has to keep meditating just like shifu in kung fu panda 2 he found inner peace but meditates to maintain it. I just don’t get why people like you always assume why a character does something without actually looking for a valid reason as to why
“Mr. Ping found the One Piece” Seeing as Chopper’s Kung Fu Point makes him look like Po and the chapter in the manga where he uses Kung Fu Point debuted years after the first Kung Fu Panda came out, we have come full circle. (Yes I know the real lore reason why Chopper looks like that when he does Kung Fu point)
What I took away is the real reason Po is OP is probably that he has two dads that love him when everyone else has none PS. You can stop making the same joke in the replies now that the Op and Po reversal connection is there 4 times
Probably outside of your wheel house but man I'd love the bizarre lore of the Scream franchise. They make no sense at all but the franchise somehow gets a pass.

@@rocketman437 I mean... gay people can still have ex-girlfriends. They just didn't realize back then that they were gay, unless I missed something because I don't remember much from the show
there’s a bit of a bias since the evil ones are also the ones coming back to get revenge on him while presumably the good ones are just chilling somewhere else
If KFP5 is a thing, it better be a reveal that Oogway was evil all along. I mean, almost every student he churns out turns evil. Like once or twice is to be expected, but with how many evil students he produced it's gotta be his fault somehow.
The how to train your dragon shows ( Riders of berk/Defenders of berk & Race to the Edge) are canon Also All Hail King Julien is canon to the Madagascar movies
People get mad about Megaminds show, but Dreamworks has always made shows that ignore the lore and just do their own thing. But the audacity of them to pretend it was a sequel-
Thankyouuuuu for mentioning how Kai existing doesn't make sense because he was obliterated as a spirit in the spirit world but yeah. If someone's got a good explanation I'd love to hear it.
Imagine kung fu panda 5 is just "turns out oogways bad vibes were just bad taco bell, oops" and the movie is about po having to compensate all the villains and make it up to them
Ways I would improve the 4th one: - Actually have the furious 5 in the film - Replace Zhen with Tigris - Just cut the Chameleon entirely - Make zhen the antagonist - Make her a Huli jing (Before you say "Hey sel, multi-tailed foxes who can shape-shift are a Japanese thing." Well, they were in Chinese folklore first so) - Etc.
Fun fact, every model for the male and female background characters ARE THE EXACT SAME BUT WIRH DIFFERENT COLOURS THE BUDGET FOR THAT SERIES MUST HAVE BEEN A MELTED POPPYPOP AND A ROLL OF preshly peeled TOILET PAPER THAT SOMEONE WIPED THEIR 🍑 ON BECAUSE THERE WAS NO PAPER ON IT. It's actually commical.
Nah I need the Bizzare lore of All Hail King Juilen and it's spin off All Hail King Juilen Exiled the lore is great for the Madagascar films. It's canon baby.
The fact that I remember all the plotlines of legends of awesomeness from this vid. I guess having one of the greatest theme songs of all time really did wonders huh.
From all the KFP spin off media i only watched that series (also the first two movies) and i had no idea there were more. And it's sad to watch cause what the flip happened to the show i loved as a kid...
I feel like if they make a Kung Fu Panda 5, they would probably go the old Po route. Like Po is now old and just chilling with Oogway but out of nowhere we find out that the world is in trouble and Po has to come out of "retirement"and help the new dragon warrior stop this NEW DANGEROUS threat.
I haven't even finished the video but as a KFP lore freak I'm glad to see someone else falling down the rabbit hole Also thank you for talking about The Dragon Knight that show honestly deserves more attention
8:13 it really is, Tai Lung didn't just have one bad day, Shifu had him training to the point that his bones were cracking, maybe Shifu should have cared about Tai Lung more as a father rather than teacher
13:09 to be fair, you couldn't see it from a top down perspective, but the mountain terrain around the wall is probably steep and slanted as fuck, and he would probably be tumbling down the mountain if he tried
I feel like a cool way to make the Chameleon better (besides giving her a main/representative colour) would've been to change her backstory a bit. Instead of her being too small to train Kung Fu (considering Mantis is a lot smaller than her), make it so she had no talent/wasn't destined for Kung Fu. At some point, in a moment of deep grief she found a secret technique that would allow her to copy the Kung Fu of others. I feel like this would give the writers a lead for a cool thematic conflict. Of Po, the Dragon Warrior, someone who was basically chosen by Fate, against someone who had no future, so she had to turn towards forbidden abilities to achieve what she wanted. I probably described it really poorly, but I think this would've been a good change, which could lead to the improvement of this character.
0:55 my broski... In this franchise a panda can create a nuclear explosion by Contracting his finger. And you're trying to put it on our history timeline?
8:06 I don’t know if you saw that episode of LoA, but that’s actually brought up in an episode where Peng makes a Kung Fu fight club to teach the average citizen Kung Fu
Gaslighting and gatekeeping caused the villains? When someone goes on a war / genocide spree after being told "no, you can't have great power" maybe it was a good decision to not give that person access to great power.

@@notsyzagts7967 (to prefice, sorry for yapping, didnt realize how much i typed till i finished) nah you don't even need to have seen the other 3 to know, you just need to have common sense. like if your character was discriminated against for being small, making it to where she was unable to learn kung fu since "no one" would teach her, don't make her a literal shape shifter that can turn into anyone. because she can and does just turn into bigger animals. also the whole "stealing people's kung fu" thing is stupid. they treat it like it's magic but it's just a different way to beat someone up. And she specifically chooses to take it from people in the spirit realm, and the 3 main ones were ones that lost. so why wouldn't she want to steal the kung fu of someone who is alive, and known to be win their fights? It would be easier than trying to get this one specific magic staff, from this master of kung fu, inner peace, and chi, who has a good track record of beating people like her, like she couldve used her shape-shifting to catch them off guard and steal their kung fu, and since she's a shape shifter, she would be hard to track down. And worse of all imo, is she isn't just a shape-shifter, she's a sorceress, but she only uses that magic to change appearance, like is that all it does in the kfp universe? She couldn't learn more offensive or defensive magic? The movie is dumb enough already, but there's so much to say about how bad the villain is.
inner peace… inner peace… dinner please... dinner with peas… in a sesame-soy glaze…
one of the funniest bits in KFP 4
This is not working at all
The bit was decently funny, my only problem is Po literally achieved inner peace by the 2nd movie. Why does he have to do it again?
@@X-SPONGED he did gain inner peace, his issue there was that he was having his insecurities about giving up his role as the Dragon Warrior
@@X-SPONGEDdude i don’t know why this is hard for you to understand. Yes, po found inner peace. But in order to maintain it, he has to keep meditating just like shifu in kung fu panda 2 he found inner peace but meditates to maintain it. I just don’t get why people like you always assume why a character does something without actually looking for a valid reason as to why
“Mr. Ping found the One Piece”
Seeing as Chopper’s Kung Fu Point makes him look like Po and the chapter in the manga where he uses Kung Fu Point debuted years after the first Kung Fu Panda came out, we have come full circle.
(Yes I know the real lore reason why Chopper looks like that when he does Kung Fu point)
What I took away is the real reason Po is OP is probably that he has two dads that love him when everyone else has none
PS. You can stop making the same joke in the replies now that the Op and Po reversal connection is there 4 times
Po is only OP when he learns to think backwards.
Damn
Po is OP when he turns items on.
@@oshkeet and Po's half black half white, what kind of agenda is Kung Fu panda spreading? Literally 1984
No one messes with the familly
15:00 "Po uses the secretest secret weapon of all, he turns on items and stage hazards" BRO THIS GOT ME EFFIN HOWLING
It's just so accurate, like how
I like how shen just becomes hilter
Bro Really Said: "Hmm My Parents Dont Talk To Me. Oh Well İ'll Just Commit Genocide" 💀
"How did Tai Lung geet a nephew if he was abandoned"? Nephews are not reliant on their uncles for life lmao. He had a sister
Probably outside of your wheel house but man I'd love the bizarre lore of the Scream franchise. They make no sense at all but the franchise somehow gets a pass.
Never considered a horror plot but that or chucky could mesh pretty well!
Nah not kids friendly enough. Or internet based enough. Or games.
Maybe do five night at Freddy. And maybe do slenderman
@@therealchoopo yes
@@therealchoopo Oh geez, I can only imagine how you would do Five Nights at Freddy's.
@@Melvinshermendude I don't think choopo is obligated to stick to those things specifically, more importantly fnaf has been talked about to death. if you wanna see yet another person go insane over the fnaf timeline may I recommend bumbles mcfumbles
13:11 Even easier solution, OPEN THE DOOR, and no, it wasn't locked, Mister Ping opens it right after Po is chosen as Dragon Warrior💀.
Po tries opening the door but it doesn't work for him for some reason, or presumably for anyone, until Mr Ping needs to see what happens.
@@nkbujvytcygvujno6006 No, he just bangs on it, which I'm pretty sure Isn't enough to open two giant doors.
@@YSL8704 But the door has no handles or knobs or rings or anything to grab to open it. It's just a flat expanse of wood that only has rings on the inside. Like a fortress.
@@nkbujvytcygvujno6006 Yeah, you have to PUSH it, not bang on the door.
@@YSL8704 Po ran into it full tilt and it didn't budge but ok
What!? That last show before the 4th movie had the craziest plot twists.
The words "master mastodon" nearly made me have an aneurysm
Dude the dragon night actually showing Brown bears from Europe is WILD it was sick seeing some lore expanded in and there being a legit plot too
That show is not canon, cause they retconned Mr Ping being gay and gave him an ex gf.
To think, if the writing was a little more competent, the Animation was decent (maybe by being like Loads style), and there was more promotion, it could've been GREAT
@@rocketman437 I mean... gay people can still have ex-girlfriends. They just didn't realize back then that they were gay, unless I missed something because I don't remember much from the show
Someone: Yknow, it seems like Oogway has a bad habit of reacting poorly to potential problems in people.
Oogway: *I sense bad vibes among us*
ඞ
HE SAID IT! HE SAID THE THING!
EVERYBODY WAS KUNG FU FIGHTING
Those kicks were as fast as lightning.
MY LONELINESS IS KILLING ME
IN FACT IT WAS A LITTLE BIT FRIGHTENING
BUT IT'S YOUR LIFE THAT YOUR WRITING🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
@@JamesGalano-xd3te🎶AND I!🎶
Why has Oogway trained so many villains? It seems like everyone he teaches turns evil.
Guess the people he teached we're destructive at heart. And Kung Fu made them even more destructive.
He trained Shifu ig
@@alfalldoot6715 Just you wait for Kung Fu Panda 5.
there’s a bit of a bias since the evil ones are also the ones coming back to get revenge on him while presumably the good ones are just chilling somewhere else
@@mynym4543 How convenient for Oogway.
The mosy shocking thing in this video was the po's dad was the pirate king
Indeed lol
Ah yes, Poffy D'Panda
Luffy is shaking rn
Pin g. Roger
12:05 "Woah, thats crazy. Lets get DoorDash" funniest thing ive very heard
Kung fu panda 2 was and will always be one of my favorite animated movies of all time
The fact that Oogway doesnt even give people a chance when he senses their vibes is so mean.
If KFP5 is a thing, it better be a reveal that Oogway was evil all along. I mean, almost every student he churns out turns evil. Like once or twice is to be expected, but with how many evil students he produced it's gotta be his fault somehow.
OH THANK GOD SOMEONE ELSE KNOWS THE DRAGON KNIGHT EXISTS. NOBODY ELSE MENTIONS THIS SHOW IN ANY OTHER KUNG FU PANDA REVIEW.
Mr ping's backstory as a pirate was something I wasn't expecting to learn
I never aknowledged the other series and deemed them as non canon, the only one I believe is canon is the first one, maybe because I'm biased
Yes you’re very biased 😅 I consider ALL the shows canon
It's because they aren't canon. None of the dreamworks shows based on movies are canon.
The how to train your dragon shows ( Riders of berk/Defenders of berk & Race to the Edge) are canon
Also All Hail King Julien is canon to the Madagascar movies
People get mad about Megaminds show, but Dreamworks has always made shows that ignore the lore and just do their own thing.
But the audacity of them to pretend it was a sequel-
Same I consider legends of awesomeness canon maybe cause of nostalgia.
ATHENA P AND CHOOPO IN THE SAME VIDEO??? THIS IS A MOMENT IN HISTORY!!!!!!
The lifeguard is voiced by athena p 20:11
Oh my gosh, you're right!
Athena Peeeeeeeeee!
21:44 is THAT THE BITE OF 87
I never knew I wanted a Choopo and Athena P crossover
I love how you can spot schaffrillas in the minute 35:02 with the others purple villains
26:07 NO CAUSE I SAW SOMEONE TALK ABOUT THIS SCENE AND I VERBALLY WENT “HE WOULD NOT FUCKING SAY THAT”
Damn, now that you mention it, the 4th movie being a Tai Lung redemption arc would’ve been pretty cool.
6:45 Of course! The Giant Leapard Moth was destined to be Shen's downfall, how did we not see it before now!
Thankyouuuuu for mentioning how Kai existing doesn't make sense because he was obliterated as a spirit in the spirit world but yeah. If someone's got a good explanation I'd love to hear it.
Oogway is the kind of guy to see that someone needs therapy and solves the problem by sentencing them to death
30:44 Honestly this was the most amazing part of the kung fu panda lore i've heard about yet.
The more videos he makes
The more he loses his mind
The more he loses his mind
The more videos he makes
Perfection
Imagine kung fu panda 5 is just "turns out oogways bad vibes were just bad taco bell, oops" and the movie is about po having to compensate all the villains and make it up to them
Bro drew his face on his belly and thought we wouldn't notice (thumbnail)
They might not be blind but they don't notice all the details
Po _bears_ Choopo's mark
A third of the video is dedicated to everything that happens before Po is formally introduced. Very lore intensive man. Great Job!
4:52 Taotie said like "Taiyote" 💀 though it’s spoken like "Dao Dai".
Ways I would improve the 4th one:
- Actually have the furious 5 in the film
- Replace Zhen with Tigris
- Just cut the Chameleon entirely
- Make zhen the antagonist
- Make her a Huli jing (Before you say "Hey sel, multi-tailed foxes who can shape-shift are a Japanese thing." Well, they were in Chinese folklore first so)
- Etc.
Can you do a Bizzare Lore of The Boss Baby Back In Business
Fun fact, every model for the male and female background characters ARE THE EXACT SAME BUT WIRH DIFFERENT COLOURS THE BUDGET FOR THAT SERIES MUST HAVE BEEN A MELTED POPPYPOP AND A ROLL OF preshly peeled TOILET PAPER THAT SOMEONE WIPED THEIR 🍑 ON BECAUSE THERE WAS NO PAPER ON IT. It's actually commical.
@@TheCrazyCrabMan what is this. a small town in alabama?
Nah I need the Bizzare lore of All Hail King Juilen and it's spin off All Hail King Juilen Exiled the lore is great for the Madagascar films. It's canon baby.
@@kermitgotthesickkicks4265 I'm pretty sure someone's made a whole series about *the crimes of Mort* on youtube
@@TheCrazyCrabMan He made that just about mort not the lore of the show itself.
The "Chamelon is malding because she smol" is stupid as shit when you remember MANTIS EXISTS
i mean it's implied that po and the furious five are only known regionally so they might not know about mantis
@@games_on_phone89Yeah but considering we’ve known Mantis longer than her, it makes her plight hardly empathetic
The fact that I remember all the plotlines of legends of awesomeness from this vid. I guess having one of the greatest theme songs of all time really did wonders huh.
From all the KFP spin off media i only watched that series (also the first two movies) and i had no idea there were more. And it's sad to watch cause what the flip happened to the show i loved as a kid...
shifu has a gf??? 💀
*had*
UA-cam commenters try not to put 💀 at the end of every sentence just because
Summery: Funny panda doing funny not panda things.
I feel like if they make a Kung Fu Panda 5, they would probably go the old Po route. Like Po is now old and just chilling with Oogway but out of nowhere we find out that the world is in trouble and Po has to come out of "retirement"and help the new dragon warrior stop this NEW DANGEROUS threat.
20:05 IS THAT ATHENA P?!?!?
8:45 No idea why but this got me lol. Tai Lung looking like a demon because Oogway vibe checks are law
I haven't even finished the video but as a KFP lore freak I'm glad to see someone else falling down the rabbit hole
Also thank you for talking about The Dragon Knight that show honestly deserves more attention
8:13 it really is, Tai Lung didn't just have one bad day, Shifu had him training to the point that his bones were cracking, maybe Shifu should have cared about Tai Lung more as a father rather than teacher
So when do we get the 1 hour how to train your dragon lore video and breaking down every dragon in the series?
please god no, the newest show is so bad
Hell naw I need a Lore video on Madagascar just for all hail King Juilen and King Juilen exiled alone that'd be like 2 hours long at most.
Read the books. It's way better
13:09 to be fair, you couldn't see it from a top down perspective, but the mountain terrain around the wall is probably steep and slanted as fuck, and he would probably be tumbling down the mountain if he tried
Love how despite dumping on just about every show/film he can, guy has to admit that the inner peace scene was good
The stage hazards/items/final smash bit for the tai lung fight is absolutely the best part of this video oh my god
It’s the jack black lore baby!!!
Oh man! describing the final fight of Kung Fu Panda 1 as Po turning items and stage hazards on is hysterical.
Chopoo: Also Shen's parent's died of sadness
Padme: First time?
the voiceover is probably the only reason i subscribed, how legendary
I think you’re more likely to die if you’re a character in a kid's movie than if you're a character in a kid's tv show.
I feel like a cool way to make the Chameleon better (besides giving her a main/representative colour) would've been to change her backstory a bit. Instead of her being too small to train Kung Fu (considering Mantis is a lot smaller than her), make it so she had no talent/wasn't destined for Kung Fu. At some point, in a moment of deep grief she found a secret technique that would allow her to copy the Kung Fu of others.
I feel like this would give the writers a lead for a cool thematic conflict. Of Po, the Dragon Warrior, someone who was basically chosen by Fate, against someone who had no future, so she had to turn towards forbidden abilities to achieve what she wanted.
I probably described it really poorly, but I think this would've been a good change, which could lead to the improvement of this character.
Finnaly, someone made a complete lore about Kung Fu Panda universe, Thanks A Lot!
13:20 in the movie there's a split moment where Goose dad opens the door and that it was opened all along. So like... Po's a complete idiot-
Mr ping being a former Pirate king was one of the best Plot reveals in the franchise in my opinion.
0:55 my broski... In this franchise a panda can create a nuclear explosion by Contracting his finger. And you're trying to put it on our history timeline?
25:52 Some broken condoms stumble in💀💀💀
So what I got from the first 10 minutes of the video is that being fatherless means you have good vibes
Oh God King Fu Panda is 15 years old...
That's a whole ass pregnancy
Pregnancies last for 15 years???
@@Meme-saviour yes, buckle up
maybe even 2 pregnancies
They grow up so slow.... 🥹@@Meme-saviour
the usage of the color theory in the first 3 movies was fucking gorgeous.
You should totally do Ninjago next ;)
YES!!!
HOLY CRAP ITS ATHENA, I just choked on my drink
There's time travel now? Mark my words, one of the following movies will feature *the multiverse.*
8:06 I don’t know if you saw that episode of LoA, but that’s actually brought up in an episode where Peng makes a Kung Fu fight club to teach the average citizen Kung Fu
The MR Ping lore runs deep
I love stumbling across a channel I have never heard about and absolutely loving it! Excited to watch other vids and see what comes out next!
Gaslighting and gatekeeping caused the villains?
When someone goes on a war / genocide spree after being told "no, you can't have great power" maybe it was a good decision to not give that person access to great power.
Hey he said that 80-90% of these villains are caused by gaslighting abd gatekeeping
15:04 Po really used Smash 4 Items and Hazards against a Melee player, and then won with Ultimate Mechamics by farming rage. Bro is a master cheeser.
