>"But to be fair, Po is leaving the Valley of Peace and he's going on a huge adventure to this giant city..."
You're almost literally describing the plot of the last two movies...
Kek, bet they'll just appear as those dumb dolls Po had in the first movie or in posters. Just like Tai Lung, they keep saying he's a favourite and he's going to be in the movie, ohh, look at him on the poster!. Probably he's just in that one scene where the Chameleon eats him and then he'll be gone forever.
>Guys put sunglasses and a jacket on a kangaroo because he reminds them of a common acquaintance >acquaintance nickname is "Jackie Legs" >they keep naming the kangaroo "Jackie Legs" for the rest of the movie, and never as "Kangaroo Jack" bar the hallucination/dream scene
Damn, this movie was stupid...
they should have been a revolving cast of characters changing every movie, older ones becoming masters on their own and leaving to establish new schools
The franchise never recovered from letting Chinese writers (that needed CCP approval) take the wheel for KFP3.
Depressing but we should have known that was a kiss of death for any decent writing.

so that's why it was shit... I always wondered
KFP2 is average. It reminds me of Titan A.E: there was potential for something great, but the writing is lackluster. Both films suffer because of their writing.
Who?
Seriously though, they were dead weight since the first movie. All they added were some cool fight moves nothing more. I think you can count all their lines from the previous movies on two hands.
>finally sees the trailer >mfw it ends on a fart joke
I may be giving the other 3 more credit than they deserve, but someone please remind me... do any of the other 3 movies (no specials or tv show) contain a single fart joke? I honestly can't remember a single one...
And if so, then now I know exactly what kind of movie this is going to be
When I got the survey last year with a rough version of the trailer I literally told them that and that the fart joke was stupid. The only reason I can think of why they kept it is because it probably tested well with kids. I still find it abysmal though
>The only reason I can think of why they kept it is because it probably tested well with kids. I still find it abysmal though
Whenever I hear about the "but kids liiike it!" reasoing for adding a fart joke, this dialogue plays on my mind:

For me it is a matter of standards. Has that been Shrek or Minions, I wouldn't have cared at all. But, kung fu Panda managed to deliver 3 movies without falling into that kind of joke, I don't even remember it in any of the specials or the few episodes of the different shows I've seen.
I don't like using this term, but it was literally the final red flag regarding the quality of writing. Even the lazy, gluttonous Panda village managed to go by without resorting to it.
There is sorta one in Secret of the Scrolls. It's not accompanied by any fart sound effect so it's kinda hard to tell. But the main movies never really had one.

>Budget bloating actors cut from the rest of the movies
Good. Jackie Chan isn't starving to death and neither is Seth Rogen.
The real loss was Lucy Liu
>Po having trouble with inner peace after having mastered it already >raspy as frick Awkwafina as the deuteragonist >villain is just a lamer Kai >no Tigress in sight
This is going to be awful, I can feel it.
I just hope Tai Lung gets his kung-fu back (if he actually lost it and Chameleon didn't just duplicate his powers) and has a redemption arc where he reconciles with Shifu. I don't give a frick about Po or Chameleon or the new fox chick.
>The movie is about Po stop being the Dragon Warrior (because, suddenly, it is a transferable job, rather than a life long title) >New side character is a female voiced by a minority (somehow popular yes, but still minority) cast
Honestly, we all probably see it coming already, but the Awkwafina character is going to be chosen as the next Dragon Warrior (and may even refuse the role, and even get away with it, because "I choose my destiny" or some crap like that)
i'm just autistic for color balancing, the yellow one blends with her fur too much and the long sleeves make it harder to read her arm position, which is essential with her fighting style
Please explain to me how the peawiener was planning to take over China and make everyone bow before him with a fleet of small boat ships carrying a cannon each.
You do realize that they set it up that cannons and gunpowder at large are new threat; capable of killing off kungfu masters
the larger implication that cities of China have no defenses to cannon fire. he's clearly mass producing these weapons and his fleet will just become exponentially larger.
Huh, pretty sure anyone can easily explain why Phantom Menace is boring - political talks and council meetings mostly devoid of emotion that will bore anyone that isn't able to full geek about the setting's lore, and with a large chunk of the plot being about stuck on the shithole of Tatooine because engine problems.
Does this mean that they have moved on to protecting other lands? It would make sense that they might return to their homelands and teach other students about Kung Fu once they felt like they have learned enough and probably still feel a bit butthurt about the whole training their whole lives to be pushed aside for a random ugly bastard.
I'm starting to think they were just bad at Kung-Fu, in the first movie the turtle doesn't want any of them to be the dragon warrior and picks some random fat guy then they job. In the second movie again they are just jobbers and in the third movie again they are just jobbers
Good, they had zero character development
Paint chips aren't a good substitute for brain cells my friend.
It’s true
Tigress came close. She kinda has an actual name and her attitude is a direct result of the conflict in the first movie.
Maybe they could have used this movie to give them character development, ever thought of that you fricking moron?
>characters are given little dialogue and development throughout three movies
>b-b-but maybe this o-one they finally would, r-moron
>Characters constantly shoved to the background
>Get no character development as a result
>"Well you guys have no character development, so get lost"
Probably couldn't get the actors back. Not like they had many lines to begin with.
who are these? your KFP OCs?
The funny thing is that Tai Lung is coming back, but they aren't.
They are in the movie.
They just won’t have major roles.
>They make an appereance
As background characters in the last minute
Will Tai Lung be the only returning villain with a speaking role?

Damn, this movie was stupid...
Then we got an animated sequel where they get magic abbo powers to talk to this random Kangaroo.
And yet I wanted to see it because of that dam trailer using the dream sequence. Curse you marking, you did your job too well.
AI voice overs no doubt
>Po is leaving the Valley of Peace
Aw shit... it's going to be another Toy Story 4, isn't it?
>no tigress
Good. I hope they frick off somewhere for the rest of the movie. All I need is Tai Lung.
She'll show up at the end of the movie post-time skip as his bride
They got forgotten after the first movie. They barely did anything in the show but job.
they should have been a revolving cast of characters changing every movie, older ones becoming masters on their own and leaving to establish new schools

KFP2 is average. It reminds me of Titan A.E: there was potential for something great, but the writing is lackluster. Both films suffer because of their writing.
This thread is not about KFP2, Black person. Turn off your bot.
Who?
Seriously though, they were dead weight since the first movie. All they added were some cool fight moves nothing more. I think you can count all their lines from the previous movies on two hands.
Do they even have any personalities?
Tigress is cold and aloof. Mantis is a wisecracking butthole. Crane is a nerd. Monkey is the playful one. Viper is girlie girl.
Even the deleted scenes have weak dialogue
?si=g3Ie5Y7IMOsIZqVD
I don't think they wanted to go through the trouble of getting all thr VAs again.
Also isn't one guy white and would want to voice an Asian character?
Most of the cast aren’t Asian.

It's really not that bad t. brap hater

KFP2 has a pooping euphemism
?feature=shared
Yes, but let's be fair in saying that an euphemism will never be the same as literally showing them shitting and pissing themselves

Latinamerican Anon here, what do you think of her voice in Spanish?
?si=2faNj2KBt4OT1aDG
(Just in case, all the returning characters seem to be voiced by their usual dub actors)
>literally the only thing anyone is looking forward to is Tai Lung
now watch as the scenes in the trailer are basically all we're getting
Not true, I'm only watching this shit for him
I just hope Tai Lung gets his kung-fu back (if he actually lost it and Chameleon didn't just duplicate his powers) and has a redemption arc where he reconciles with Shifu. I don't give a frick about Po or Chameleon or the new fox chick.
Considering that the Chameleon also turns to Po which Po has to defeat I would assume he still retains his abilities.
Oh. I get it now. He loses his abilities so then he must train the fox chick.
>The movie is about Po stop being the Dragon Warrior (because, suddenly, it is a transferable job, rather than a life long title)
>New side character is a female voiced by a minority (somehow popular yes, but still minority) cast

Talk about doing Tigress dirty...
>Group of famous people we paid for two lines per movie
>in-universe exist solely to be the clique Po wants in then a punching bag for the bad guy.
The grasshopper and snake were always pointless adds, one of whom is just there because they liked the voice actor in his shitty comedies.
i preferred the red dress on tigress
too sexual...
I miss it too.
i'm just autistic for color balancing, the yellow one blends with her fur too much and the long sleeves make it harder to read her arm position, which is essential with her fighting style
Did they say the outfit change was plot-related or whatever?
iirc she's just wearing yellow in 3 and that's it
Totally not a Mary Sue
>Poster art has an infinitely better design
Hate it so much
It's concept art. I love when movies and shows find some way to sneak it in.
Is she... supposed to be a reference to some Chinese folk hero... where the common folk love and support her, with only the authorities pursuing her?
You know, like Zorro.
In the one of interviews they said she's a mentoree foil to Po, like Po himself was to Shifu
so is she racist?
Didn't they confirm they are coming back?
Please explain to me how the peawiener was planning to take over China and make everyone bow before him with a fleet of small boat ships carrying a cannon each.
>with a fleet of small boat ships carrying a cannon each
like that
But what's the plan? Threaten to shoot cities unless China worships him?
Probably: shoot small towns, steal more metal, build more cannons, go after bigger prey.
Weak plot
You do realize that they set it up that cannons and gunpowder at large are new threat; capable of killing off kungfu masters
the larger implication that cities of China have no defenses to cannon fire. he's clearly mass producing these weapons and his fleet will just become exponentially larger.
you're talking to the kfp2 schizo, don't bother
>cannon and gunpowder
Words that you won't hear in KFP2, because the dialogue feels almost aimed at 8 year olds
>capable of killing off kung fu masters
Those weapons were slow as shit. Rhyno master only died because he didn't move out the way.
i mean what is the point to be there and don't do a shit, 3 is a example of that
4gotten
Why were they such dicks to Po in the first movie?
Viper liked him
He's fat and moronic
>Bust your ass for a promotion
>It goes to some random idiot off the street.
Crane was rather patient in this scene

It's shit

Oh, you again.
Dreamworks probably wanted to do this since the second movie
I hate boring films like The Phantom Menace and Kung Fu Panda 2, because it's hard to explain what makes them boring.
Huh, pretty sure anyone can easily explain why Phantom Menace is boring - political talks and council meetings mostly devoid of emotion that will bore anyone that isn't able to full geek about the setting's lore, and with a large chunk of the plot being about stuck on the shithole of Tatooine because engine problems.
This sharktalegay is so fricking annoying
if only people stopped replying to him
Jennifer Yuh Nelson, please never direct another movie again.
Needless to say, i watched The Darkest Minds. Wish i haven't.
Mmmm Monkey
Does this mean that they have moved on to protecting other lands?

Miss but not forgotten
the more the gratting performance of awkafina i hear the more i want to burn random orphanage
want to frick the chameleon tho
>no viper waifu yet again
Pain, I like it rough. Pain I cant get enough.
I'm starting to think they were just bad at Kung-Fu, in the first movie the turtle doesn't want any of them to be the dragon warrior and picks some random fat guy then they job. In the second movie again they are just jobbers and in the third movie again they are just jobbers
Why is Viper so cute?
