There was an interview with the co-director, Stephanie Ma Stine, that reveals a lot about this film, including that it was conceived as a live action-animation hybrid movie in which Zhen and the Chameleon were humans, the director Mike Mitchell was given full creative control and heavily prioritized comedy over emotion. Also, the Furious Five, Shen, and Kai were all very last minute additions which is presumably why they don't speak or interact with Po at all.
I heard that news aswell, I was so mad when I heard it, they should have fired Mike Mitchell and let Stephanie take over as the director, she also wanted it to be Kfp1 and kfp2 level, he clearly just didn't want to accept that this film isn't supposed to be about comedy it has to be more emotional and deep for the story to make sense. I really hope someday they do a Ma Stine cut like how they did the Synders cut in the justice league.
Well, there is a Kung Fu Panda show, actually....Well, actually there's THREE Kung Fu Panda shows, one of which was a significant part of my childhood, And yes - It has fight scenes in every episode!
A lot of people say this movie is the weakest and bad but for me i take the weakest part but it’s not a bad movie it’s just disappointing for a KFP movie and this is coming from a big fan of the franchise
yeah tbh the whole new dragon warrior didn’t make sense to me for this movie. While it was a good movie in itself they really came up with a plausible but completely random plot. The villain is great, I like Aquafina’s role too, but I hate we couldn’t see the furious 5 (budget with everyone coming back but unfortunate) and that this seems like a completely random time for Po to give up being the dragon warrior. He’s still so young and hasn’t been the dragon warrior for too long at this point, I thought it would be an issue of passing down once he’s closer to Shifu’s age.
My favourite part of this movie was tai lung redemption arc and the ending the soundtrack where they all got sent back to the spirit realm it melted my heart hearing oogway ascends track in that scene 😢
It was so rushed and didn't feel right at all. Tai Lung says it was a mistake making Po the dragon warrior then 10 minutes later he says something cheesy as hell like "hmm maybe you are the dragon warrior." The ending of the movie kind of just undid a lot of Tai Lung's intelligence and wittiness that made him likable
Spoilers for anyone who wants to read: The part of the sorceress stealing Tai Lungs Chi should've happened at the beginning of the movie. Then even with it stolen, show that Tai Lung is still capable enough to escape. Then have him begrudgingly seek out Po's help to return to the spirit world. Then you have the whole movie with Po and Tai Lung being the main focus. This could have given Tai Lung some interesting scenes of him meeting everyone again, especially Shifu.
but she couldnt have taken his chi without opening the spirit realm first. To do that she needs the staff of wisdom. Which needed to be given to her, not taken.
@@horyzengm you could have a scene at the beginning of an ambush on the palace where Po and the Furious Five defend the palace. However a bunch of shenanigans could occur that leads to the staff being taken
@@Whineanddine52 Pretty sure the main reason the furious five weren't in this movie was due to them not being able to hire the previous voice actors. A full on fight would need buildup, and during that buildup theyd need dialogue. That's why they only showed up in the credits scene. Also, yeah they could have had the staff taken at the start. But remember, shifu also has to tell po to find a successor, and that whole mental battle needs to happen, it's pretty crucial. ALSO also, if we somehow did include all that, then also had Tai lung somehow escape, then ALSO had him convince Po he's good now, then ALSO have Zhen somehow make herself look good for Dragon warrior role in Po's eyes (considering she only liked him after they spent time together, and this ambush method would negate that) The movie would end up being over 2-2.5 hours. And animated movies aren't the type of thing that you want to extend for any amount of time.
@@horyzengm honestly you could redo the movie without Zhen. Make the story around Po and Tai Lung. I think Tai wouldn't want to prove that he's changed and more so just wants Po's help to get his chi back. Po would help him since he knows that if the chameleon uses the staff more then that would be bad for a whole lot of reasons. Then at the end of the movie before Tai Lung returns to the spirit world, he leaves with a better understanding of why Po was the Dragon Warrior and not him, but this time that scene has more narrative build up. The successor for the dragon warrior could have been Tigress. She has the closest connection to Po, she is present in most of the movies and she is more than capable of taking that mantle.
I really don’t care if some people find this move bad or terrible. I absolutely loved this one. the part where the chameleon op absorbed the skills of the masters, lord Shen, tai lung, general Kai, really made me go “oh sh*t” in my mind. She was just consuming the skills one by one, and she was just getting more powerful by the second, genuinely felt like an cool scene for me
He is obviously going to react to that, as he stated in the Sonic Movie 2 video. We all just have to wait until the streaming release. He's not gonna watch a low-quality pirated version of it and possibly sabotage his career.
16:26 - Heyyy, it's Ke Huy Quan!! He has such a recognizable, iconic voice. I'm so happy he's gotten so popular again recently. He's such a sweetheart. He makes everything he's in soooo much better.
@@nafimkhan9462especially with the choosing the new dragon warrior aspect. He hasn’t been the dragon warrior for too long, does the prophecy really suggest the dragon warrior will be found after 500 years and only remain in that position for a max of like 10 years? I thought it’d be an issue of passing it down once he got to be Shifu’s age.
I just saw this in the cinema yesterday and it was just me and my dad in this one room then like 10 minutes in a couple came in so in total only 4 people were in one cinema room
The Chameleon can mixture the appearance of one master with the skills of another. That's why when she transforms into Po, the Chameleon can mixture with skills of another master like the bites or breathing fire or when she transforms into a chimera and can mixture all the appearances and skills into what she wants.

The fact they made it clear is all advertising that Tai Lung was back, only proves that he was the main selling point of the movie. He appears for like five percent of the screentime, yet is the best part. If we don't get to have a proper ark in 5 or 6, some people actually need to be fired for failing to do the one thing they're paid for; storytelling.
(At 23:49) FINALLY! After all these years… Ian McShane has returned to the _Kung Fu Panda franchise!_ and his character has emotionally changed… More or less.
After watching this i just realised the plot hole that when the chamelion hit po with tai lungs power. In the first movie the finger thing doesnt work on po it just makes him laugh
29:14 yeah all of this actually was in the trailer and that’s something that made me kinda unmotivated to see the movie since they revealed very much of the plot in the trailer but it still was a great movie
The Chameleon is a vain, psychotic and greedy bastard. She not only saw the Kung Fu as a means to adquire more power instead of learning something from the martial arts itself, but also wanted to adquire the skills the easy way by shortcuts to become more stronger, including trespassing into the Spirit Realm to steal them from the dead warriors and corrupting the art of Kung Fu with sorcery and witchcraft. She also using everyone, including Zhen, to do her bidding work and allying herself with the crime bosses of Juniper City to control the city and have her share of tributes makes her an even more nasty villain. That explains why no one would want to train her in Kung Fu because she was already a person who wanted power above all things and not because of her size as the Chameleon claimed to Po.
5:50 yup, that’s Awkwafina. 4:07 First Love and Thunder. Now this one. 14:21 he finally did. I wasn’t expecting that. 15:00 lol hahahahahahaha!!!!!! 15:35 you saw Everything Everywhere All At Once. What about Loki season 2?
It's very enjoyable movie to be honest, the action is as good as always and the villain is very good, backstory makes her reputation look bad but everything else is perfect
Tai long in this movie:"WHO DENIED ME MY REDEMPTION ARK?!?!?!?!"
Ah yes, Tai *Long.*

Looks like Tai Lung's screentime in this movie is Tai Short 😂 (i'll show myself out....)

@@theblueststar5316 literally 💀
The staff moment was sick
By the way, The Chameleon said she was only stealing from the kung fu from every master villain before her, not the hero’s.
I'm actually glad we got to see Tai Lung come around.
It was unfortunately rushed
The peach pit that Shifu planted has grown like how Po has grown in all the movies

They should have given Tigress her own movie instead of Kung Fu Panda 4. Humble opinion.
agreed this seems like a cash grab
Well, there’s going to be 2 more because the creators originally planned 6 movies
OK I definitely agree that Tigress deserves her own film, and so does Shifu and Oogway I would love to know about how they became kung fu legends
