      I love each of the villains in this series, Shen for how he is written, Tai Lung for how well he counters Po as a warrior, and Kai (I believe 3 is kai) because he's has an interesting power and forces Po to think outside the box. Plus his music is kind of badass

    Not sure if you knew:
    1) Shifu (or Sifu) means "teacher" or "master" in mandarin so his name is literally Master Master.
    2) All the Furious Five are the different styles of kung fu (tiger, mantis, viper etc.) and the animators made a conscious effort to display each style for each character.
    3) Audiences and film makers in China were shocked at how a western animated movie (the first KFP) so lovingly portrayed Chinese cultural ideas and a kung fu story....to the point of wondering why the Chinese movie industry had not done that yet.

  • @jamaljames9331

    I agree with Jen! I think when Lord Shen realized that his feathers triggered Po's traumatic memory of losing his mother, he does it on purpose the second time in order to distract him and uses it as a weapon to make him vulnerable against him.
    He saw how Po's attention was set on his feathers as soon as he fans them, cause it's what made him remember who he is and understands that he plays an important role in his past as to where he comes from.

      It's also implied that it's Shen himself, not Po, who is being referred to as "the warrior of black and white." It's his obsessive pursuit of conquest and refusal to back down and admit fault that puts him in the confrontation that kills him, and by his own cannon no less.

    • @Cassie-s4e

    i think Shen accepted his fate because he knows he lost everything, even when he tries to kill Po again after showing mercy he sees the prophecy is still fighting back and seeing his canon fall down upon him the very thing he thought he could conquer everything feels like death is coming for his misdeeds so he fully accepts that he lost and will die with his hatred too

  • @jasontodd6822

    This one is my favorite out of the series with its story. If you wonder why its darker then the other movies its because Guillermo del Toro produced Kung Fu Panda 2 and you can see he added dark moments in this one. I loved how everyone has grown and respect Po especially Tigress who disliked him the most in the 1st movie but in this one she has become very close to him and has become like a friend you ask for guidance and is like a older sister to him. An emotional story and movie for sure.

  • @careycoombs6274

    One of my favorite things about Po is how kind he is. At the end with his speech to Shen about scars/wounds healing, and in the first film where he tries to explain the dragon scroll to Tai Lung. He fights passionately, but they don’t really try to make him ‘tough’.

    Technically Shen might be considered a warrior of black and white since he's a white peacock, he trained in marital arts, dagger and weapon combat, he bested two masters. This could be further implied as the travel/get ready montage was playing, it went to black and grey, and showed po/shen on opposite sides, then reverse/swap places to the ying yang symbol. Shows they are similar but also different. And he led himself to his own demise bc he wouldn't stop, po just avoided/dodged. He himself was his own undoing, he could've stopped he chose to keep going

    Fun Fact: Shen not only killed pandas but all creatures that represented black and white. Tai Lang also fit that description hence why he was found as a cub by Master Shifu and because of that genocide it was destiny for Po to defeat Tai Lang, defeat Shen and become the dragon warrior. So Tai Lang and his parents and family also suffered at the hands of Shen

    Kung Fu Panda 2 is my favorite from the entire trilogy. I love the story, the music/score and the ideas of finding inner as it was so beautifully shown. Plus big up the story tellers as they were so to the point and efficient with how they wanted to make this movie by taking the themes from the first one and blossoming it into this film where we get to see how Po learns about his childhood, being adopted, relationship with his Dad and his friendship with the furious five especially Tigress and most importantly discovering “HIS” inner peace. The action sequences were great as well. Gary Oldman was great as the antagonist ‘Lord Shen’ as him being a peacock was shown with such grace, with such balletic movements and some dominant lines, and Lord Shen is one of my favorite animated antagonists, definitely top three. Loved your reactions/analysis, take care, stay healthy, enjoy life and have a good one

    Yay! Jen liked it! I looove this one. I really appreciate how far they went with Po’s backstory and didn’t shy away from the ugliness that Shen wrought. Not only on the pandas, but within himself. He laughed at the idea of Po being the one destined to defeat him and became enraged and lost himself even more when he realized that nothing he could do could change his destiny, just like Po couldn’t change his. Except Po accepted his and changed with it, and became better for it. That flashback scene is rough but so beautifully done. I was crushed the first time I saw it 🥺 Again, so glad you guys liked it, especially Jen, since she wasn’t 100% sold on the first one. Great reaction. Can’t wait for y’all to see the third one.

    To me, this one and HTTYD 2 are the best sequel animated movies!!! Even better than Shrek 2.. And also, my favorite of the trilogy.
    I truly love this movie, specially with some details... When he DREAMED his parents and the attack to the village for the first time, it was 2D; because it was something of his "imagination/a dream" (like the opening scene in Kung Fu Panda 1)... But when he finds his inner peace and truly accept what HAPPENED to his family, it is shown in 3D, because it has come his reality, a part of his life...

    This movie was the peak imo. The characters progressed naturally from the previous entry and the overall story packed an emotional punch with an amazing villain. Lord Shen was equal parts Freeza and Voldemort rolled into one, but managed to differentiate himself from either of the two. I love the fact Shen has a vulnerable side to him and Gary Oldman voiced the character perfectly. I was looking forward to Kung Fu Panda 3 with so much excitement, but it took them 5 years to return. Since so much time had passed, the makers made the third movie with more comedic elements that were clearly aimed to draw kids in. Now Kung Fu Panda 4 is coming and it's coming out after 8 years. I know it will go a very different route and most likely have Po pass on the mantle. So for me, Kung Fu Panda 2 was the pinnacle.

    Shen was such a great villain, one who is more complex than somebody who wants power just for the sake of it. but a man who was built up by his own trauma and became a villain due to it because he didn't know how to handle it.
    Where as Po managed his trauma differently and grew from it. There's also a difference of upbringing for sure but that's the basis of it. I personally did feel for Shen, not that his actions are excusable but it's grounded and real none the less.
    Also that shot of Shen looking up at the canon falling towards him was a moment of accepting his fate, almost like he wanted to die for his sins and find peace that way.

    This is my favorite in the trilogy. It’s also one of my favorite movies of all times cause it personally hits me. Lord Shen is definitely the best villain in the trilogy and I love PO growth and acceptance of his trauma and Shen just can’t forget his. The message is just perfectly told

    Kung Fu Panda is one of the few movies that I loved as a kid and I still enjoy it very much at 25 years old 🎉🎉

    I can still remember when i went to go watch the movie in theaters, my older cousin brought me and my sisters to the movie theaters, my sisters and cousin wanted to watch Pirates of the Caribbean ( the 4th I think), but me being nine at the time, wanted to go see kung fu panda and my cousin ended up going with me either because i didn't what to go alone or they just could let me go alone.

    This trilogy is similar to Nolan's Batman in that each of the films is different but equally good in its own way.

    Peacocks naturally use their feathers to atract mates and scare off predators. So if a peacock were to use kungfu it would make sense they use it.

    I honestly can't believe I didn't like this film when I firsted watched it, but after watching it again I found myself really enjoying it and really love lord shen as the villain, I love po and the furious five going on an adventure to stop lord shen, it just shows how much they have grown from the first film because the furious five didn't like po at first and now they consider po there friend and I love the scene where tigress hugs po like it just shows so much character growth

    Can’t wait for you guys to watch the trilogy of How To Train your Dragon. I know you guys won’t watch the tv series that’s before the 2nd film but it’s great to watch for context. Especially since they are making a live action movie of it.

    This movie is up there with Prince of Egypt as the best animated "kids" films of all time. Amazing villain in Gary Oldman's Shen, lots of really fun kung fu action, and super creative use of different styles of animation. The Inner peace scene and the stuff between Po and his adoptive father always get my eyes a bit teary.

    Imo How to Train your Dragon is more of a perfect trilogy , but Kung Fu Panda trilogy is stil top tier . Shen is the best antagonist of the three movies but Tai Lung is still my favorite

  • @DeLion_1612
    @DeLion_1612 11 місяців тому +1

    Kung Fu Panda 2 is generally seen as the best one of the trilogy, in terms of writing. Personally, I find this one to be the most emotional and mature of the trilogy. And Shen is arguably DreamWorks’ best written villain. Gary Oldman was exceptional! And I think you’ll find KFP 3 is more of a comical film, but still amazing
    P.S. I knew Jen would love Baby Po 🐼 😂

    Everytime i see someone watching kung fu panda series, i really wish they could watch the first one in spanish, Tai Long's VA performance when telling Shifu to "tell me you're proud" is just peek for some reason, it's so well done, you can hear like Tai Long is about to cry, if you have free time (just like 2 minutes of it) i would suggest just searching it up on youtube "dime que estas orgulloso Shifu". Of course not for a video, but in your personal time

    Master Oogway said, "A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it.”
    1st movie: Master Shifu sent a message to the prison to increase security and actually released Tai Lung.
    2nd movie: Lord Shen decided to try and kill off all the pandas and technically created Po / The Dragon Warrior which led to his downfall.

    Too bad you guys did not talk about the cast. Jack Black and Gary Oldman as Shen are an absolute highlight! in 3, watch out for J.K. Simmons and Bryan Cranston. With a special shoutout to Kate Hudson, who goes completely out of character!

    I Love the Kung Fu Panda Trilogy! I love how these movies play around with fighting animation, the humour is on point on where it's supposed to be and how these movies play with your emotions(I'm not crying, you're crying). I think this one is a great flick as well, but I think I just have a more connection with the first one because of how many times I've seen the first one. But I can't wait for you guys to check out the third one!
