Not my favourite (#2 was) but I thought the villain was funny as fuck and thought he almost stole the show with his lines.

Plot should have had less panda village and more villain.

I watched it the other day. I enjoyed it quite a lot. Just wish there was more of the Furious Five.

kfp2 is better overall but the third is the funniest

Stripey baby.

Panda shit was gay. Not enough of Kai and his God tier theme music. Or enough Wu Gui with the chi blasts.

Lame in comparison to the first two, but not that shit.

The plot felt a little half baked but at least it had some gorgeous animation

The weakest KFP movie due mostly to lack of real fights that let them use their great choreography. It was really noticeable for me when Po has that short spar with Tigress and I just kinda went "shit, where's that been all movie?" Kai wasn't as fun to watch as Shen was, and while more directly intimidating was less sinister. That and the lack of real connection to Po kinda hurt him as a villain.

The visuals, however, were pretty fucking stunning. Like, god damn.

Pretty bad.

2 > 1 > 3

not as good as 2 but it is still way better than zootopia

A bit too fast paced at places and the villain is not threatening enough but still fucking fantastic.

Visually it may be the best of the 3, but I still love 2 the most.

Best character?

yep

best dad ever

can't wait for kung fu panda 6

>goose
>serving soup made out of dead duck

Boring

Was okay still waiting for my world tournament damn it.

The villain was basically Demongo

It's the prettiest one by far, but i felt like it has too much drama and too little kung fu for a kung fu comedy movie.
Second movie was the best overall, IMO.

better than zootopia

>HAHA LOOK AT ME I'M SO COOL AND DIFFERENT
contrarians need to fucking die

Weakest of the trilogy in a lot of ways- the action set-pieces aren't as exciting, the humor isn't as fresh, the plot wasn't as engaging.

Still nice, though. You could do a lot worse than watching Kung Fu Panda 3.

holy triggered, it's ok user zootopia's good too!.

Why most Jack Black always be the one to learn the uber secret knowledge/technique of the universe. It got repetitive by the second movie. Really hope Shifu would be the one to kick ass in this.

The plot kind of felt like a long episode rather than movie. The spirit world stuff was awesome and I love how it threw you right into it, it was cheesy B movie fun. But then the first half had a bit too much toilet humour and the jokes were a little lacking.

Like everyone else has been saying, Kai was an awesome villain who was fun as hell to watch, I'd say even more than Tai Lung. But I really missed the other Furious Five and especially Shifu.

I didn't hate Po's panda-dad, but I never really grew to love him either. The other pandas I was just "eh" on (the chick-panda getting nunchucks was pretty cool though).

I really enjoyed Po vs. Kai though. Yeah it was cliche at parts but it had so much energy and the visuals were fucking amazing.

I read that they made new models for everyone for this movie. What really bothers me is that they gave Viper fangs when she isn't supposed to have them (it's even part of her whole backstory). I wish they fixed that.

Also I don't get the random ship-teasing for Po and Tigress scattered throughout the movie when they work great as just friends.

awesome visuals
good characters
it's a really good movie

(The name of the movie is Kung-Fu Panda)

aunt panda is cute

Felt more like a kid's movie than the last two to be honest. Even the villain didn't feel like a movie villain, more like a villain of the week from a cartoon.

The girl panda was called maymay.

Enough said.

this

How were the Pandas and baby Pandas beating literal chi's of the masters of Kung Fu?

It was actually pretty bad.

A cop-out of a story. In the first two movies we learn that there is no secret ingredient and that you can become who you want to be through hard work, and not through cheesy chosen one bullshit.

But in 3 they retcon that hard by introducing an actual secret ingredient (chi), and claim that Po was the chosen one all along and it was meme magic that brought him there.

Not to mention everyone learned chi in an afternoon and even retards and babies were doing it.

Po didn't learn any lessons that he already learned in the first two movies. He didn't actually grow, but was hand-waved a new super power.


You have shit taste.

Some of you seem pretty hard on the 3rd, I think it was still bloody great. Maybe the weakest of the trilogy, but it's a bloody strong trilogy. The humour was decent, a bit more misses than before and the fight scenes lacked a bit since all Kai had to do was steal Chi's rather than directly fight.

I think he was the weakest villain too, he didn't have much of a presence in my opinion. He did feel like the biggest threat though so I think he still remained engaging.

Is 3 the last one? With the way it ended it seemed like it's the case, which is a bit of a shame, but also fine since there's no point continually milking it.

I'm not sure how I'd rank them all desu

>Not to mention everyone learned chi in an afternoon and even retards and babies were doing it.

I found this odd as shit. I could understand his fathers since it was about "knowing who you really are", but literally every Panda and then everyone in his home village? How did they make this self discovery so quickly? Shifu couldn't do it and Oogway didn't exactly find it easy either.

I don't think Chi retcons the "there is no secret ingredient" thing for that very reason, everyone knew how to do it, it didn't really make sense, but the fact it is that way does show it's not just a special thing only the dragon warrior can do.

shifu is a red panda

I would fuck shifu up the ass with his cute bushy tail rubbing the back of my ballsack

...what about what I said made you think I wanted to know that?

because red pandas are sexy. and it doesnt matter what you wanted to know, what matter is what I want you to know!

This pretty much. It was far to little "Lets make the villain a villain" and far to much "hur hur hur pandas"

I would totally stick my dick in all those underage female pandas

I just hope having the temple destroyed has a massive impact in future movies since that was the only permanent damage Kai did.
Also wished for Jade Wu Gui that would devastate everything

It was kinda good
Too many fat jokes.
Ok. We get it, pandas are lazy and fat.

I was disappointed po's father was just another random villager not a village leader or a spiritual leader

It's the weakest of the three. I mean I still like it a lot and some of the hate/bashing I've seen towards it makes me a little sad but, at the same time, Doug Walker said something to the effect of "It's the best one yet!" and I gotta know what he's smoking.

Anyway, second movie's still the best.

Everyone has opinions senpai

I was crying bitter tears due to the mere thought of him having to depart from Po. Good thing that didn't happen.

Deus ex panda, the power of comedy relief, and meimei was actually pretty good at fighting.

Meimei was just one of the Pandas, this was literally legends of Kung Fu who dismantled the Furious 5 and Shifu but couldn't stand up to some Pandas?
Comedy relief doesn't really work here, generally KFP treats its battles seriously when it comes to power levels. There were literally baby pandas outsmarting them

It was going to be hard to beat the pure kino that is KFP2 but three was alright, too much of the panda village which got really annoying but it still retained some of the genuine heart of the first and second film and was funny in places.

>KFP 7.5/10
>KFP2 9/10 (one of my favourite animated films of all time with my all time favourite scene from any animated film).
>KFP3 6/10

The idea is that he used way too many of them, dividing his focus too thin.

He didn't control them all did he? I thought he only saw what they saw, rather than directly be responsible for how they fight and what they do

>my all time favourite scene from any animated film
What scene would that be

This scene: youtube.com/watch?v=RqjIkkwMlnw

It blends 2D and 3D animation perfectly, has an amazing grasp of tone, the use of colour is excellent, it has emotional weight and my god the music. This scene made me fall in love with animation as a medium and it is in a film called fucking Kung Fu Panda.

Autism.

good villain
Stupid Panda village
Bad subplot about Po becoming a teacher
Not enough Furious Five.
>like they literally kick the furious five in the crotch and then kick them in the gutter.

The Panda village wasn't that bad. It had its lows but it also had some decent moments.

Easily the best character in the series. Only Lord Shen and his Wolf, Tigress, and maybe Wu Gui come close.

He was a little annoying in the first film but in the second and third he was pretty great.

>Literally using Kung Fu Fighting to close it

It worked for the credits but using it during the movie made me chuckle

bump

...

the music is so perfect

They should have dumped the two dads thing or just resolved it really early in the film.

wasn't it resolved in 2 though?

Proof that the Star Wars formula holds true
>first movie is good and sets up the world
>second movie is really really good
>third film is meh with forced goofy characters to appeal to kids
I realize the whole point of the movie was him reconnecting with his people but there was way too much goofy panda bullshit in this movie.

Having the entire village be a bunch of fat idiots who literally roll around to move places was grating when these people are supposed to have the secret of using chi

Worst movie in the trilogy. Didn't have the support of a strong antagonist like the second movie, and it padded with dumb humor more than the first 2 movies did.

total let down. had a dozen chances to stick the landing and flubbed each and every one of them. It felt like they had some really solid ideas and then execs stepped in and made them shit out the most bland and contrived ending that sucked all the emotional impact and meaning out of the entire movie up until that point.

It's a real shame because they could have tied off a pretty good trilogy with a great ending and then moved into the next set of films (because there will be more) but instead we got this weak ass ending that manages to poke holes in the first two movies when it's supposed to be building on them.

I thought it was a major letdown and that was even after the total fucking misfire that was the Good Dinosaur which came so close to being a great movie that it actually made me rage with how interfered with it came across.

>execs stepped in


soccer moms complained about KFP2 being too dark.

now connect the dots

Overall a worse movie than pic related, doesn't even come close

Villain was great. Order of logic makes little sense (how did Tigree find Po?) The point of the movie was that he should be himself, which was a lesson he learned in the first movie. The plot is pretty stupid but the set pieces are kind of funny. Sometimes.

It wasn't direct to DvD quality or anything. Not the best.

>villain was great
>btw im some guy that was dead but i got spirit magic that makes me op and im mad because reasons

>trilogy
So far.

There are three more movies planned.

>Kung Fu Panda 3
>Po's two dads get ''married''
>adopt Po
>turns out Po is gay too
>has to help him fight prejudice in the dojo
>muh evil bigots
>muh oppression
>two hours of literal gay furry porn
worst movie I've ever seen

what could they possibly do? Po has been effectively unbeatable since the end of the first movie. What stupid gimmicks are they going to pull out their asses to make the next 3 any kind of tense?

I thought that the plot was much weaker than the first or second ones. KFP2 was incredible, especially with the equal parts hilarious and threatening villain, but the third one and its qi bullshit asspull really dropped the ball on the ending. Also, they didn't expand on the weird Po/Tigress romance subplot from 2.

>that mantis
>that purple thing
Who would buy that for their kids?

I'd say the point of this movie was more self discovery and learning who you truly are. In the Second he finds inner peace, which he seemingly does by understanding himself doesn't he?

I recall Shifu using the exact same line about Oogway living in a cave to find inner peace and here using it to say he found out about himself too if I'm not mistaken. I think they're different, the morals in all 3 films are but perhaps not substantially so.
I'm also not seeing how any of them contradict the other desu, there was no secret ingredient in Po except that it was his destiny since he became the dragon warrior. Whilst the first movie did give the impression anyone can do it given the "no secret ingredient" thing, they had to go somewhere with Po being the dragon warrior.

Some of the humour did fall flat, mostly in the Panda village but it wasn't anywhere as bad as people seem to be making out. There were still good jokes and even the previous movies have had some misses.

bump

I like it better than 2

Kai>Shen

An unnecessary movie. The Furious Five were useless AGAIN, Po got another powerup, the idea that your lazy ass lifestyle makes you able to fight legendary Kung Fu masters is stupid, and "Try hard and you'll be a good teacher with no training or experience" is just as dumb.

>I'd say the point of this movie was more self discovery and learning who you truly are.

I feel like the movie tried to have too many main points, and most of them were forgotten and dropped. Like at the beginning when Shifu tells Po that being the dragon warrior is not all about fighting, and then he solves the crisis with Kai by fighting. They also had that odd moment when Po was looking at the scroll, and rather than looking at the picture of Oogway fighting, he was looking at the pandas. I thought it was setting up something about Po's desire to be closer to his people... and then surprise, all he cared about with Chi was fighting. Why not have him look at the picture of the fight? Why have him focus on the picture of the healing if he wasn't interested in healing?

I also think the movie would have been a little better if Po hadn't become great at ALL the panda stuff, because while he is one, he wasn't raised with them. Like that little moment with chop sticks. It would have been nice if he preferred them, just to show that he was still culturally different from them.

needed less chi magic and more kung fu
Kai's theme was purified awesome

>he solves the crisis with Kai by fightin
Well not really, the point is he couldn't really fight Kai. He was 2stronk, only once they got into the spirit world and he was enhanced by Chi did he dominate, but that was chi magic rather than outclassing his opponent in a fight a la Tai Lung.

it doesn't matter that he was fighting with chi instead of physically, he still used fighting to solve his problem.

He used fighting in all the movies, it's Kung Fu Panda, the big bad villain is going to be defeated in some form of combat. I don't think that demeans the point of the Chi, even if the Chi thing was a bit of an asspull since suddenly everyone could do it when even Shifu couldn't learn it.

Besides, the point with it not being all about fighting was more about him being a teacher in this one, which he did with the Pandas. Even that seemed like an asspull to me because there's no real sense in the Pandas beating the Chi Warriors who have run rampant throughout most of China, even the baby pandas were winning them ffs. But yeah, back to the point, he taught them all something and in the process learned how to spread his knowledge, even going as far as teaching Shifu how to channel his Chi. So he's a fighter (first movie), a son (second movie) and a teacher/master (third movie).

I thought there were supposed to be 6 movies but I'm not really sure where they can go from here.

>6 movies
Holy shit.
What the hell? 3 felt like an ending. I suppose they could have a rogue pupil of his own for 5, then in 6 he can become a literal Kung Fu God because literally what else is left.
He's pretty much surpassing Oogway at this point.

Was Po justified in destroying Kai's immortal soul like a ballon with too much air

Yep. I like it the least out of the whole franchise. This includes the animated series and the shorts.

Yep, but they brought it back in 3 and it made an excuse to make it even more about Po while other characters was glossed over.
Its basically Legends of Awesomeness bleed into the movie.

the duck dad is the best character

He's a goose.

Any WebM requests from the film?

He did nothing wrong.

His backstory was a bit weird
Teamed with Oogway for so long, presumably doing good and then just went evil on a whim?

Texturing and set designs and lighting was gorgeous as usual. Wish we had more action than the panda village. The spirit world sequence and ending fight were beautiful.

He sucked as a villain.

He didn't suck, he just didn't have much to him.
