Chameleon WISHES she was like Shen.
What they did to shen in that movie really pissing me off.
Shen only made one sound and it's a peacock moan lol
I know! He look so majestic in that animation though! Wished they gave him a line at least or they him apologizing to Po for what he did to him.
@@SagaciousWizard fr same! I couldn't believe they would treat him so disrespectfully. He didn't even put up a fight like Tai Lung and it was embarrassing! And he's my fav so I'm mad! Guess I could say the same for Kai too even though he's not my fav but they did him dirty too.
@@Kevsterlolz LMAO yeah like what the heck was that sound he made hahaha. I literally facepalmed when that happened
HELP THE FACT HE JUST THROWS THE THRONE OUT THE WINDOW 💀💀💀
Meant to represent him throwing away his family, and replacing them with the giant cannon, which is a symbol of desperate measures he took to protect himself.
It _literally_ symbolizes Shen throwing his family out the window for his creation.
I love this movie
Let’s just say that the throne was THROWNE!😂

The specific thing I love is how Shen uses his tail feathers while fighting, as one of the uses in the real animal is to appear bigger for intimidation.
He's so extra, but you can't doubt that it fits him perfectly.
Love when Dreamworks clearly does their research.
Apparently it’s also based off a fighting style that uses metal fans
@@crocoboi7936I knew it was familiar! Dreamworks did a brilliant job combining it
Dreamworks did jack shit. The people they hired did all this, DESPITE Dreamworks, not BECAUSE of Dreamworks. After KFP4, y'all gotta stop huffing the hype juice for Dreamworks.
@@lazaroskarmaniolas7410ehhhhhh
man hush. Don't see Disney getting any better
I'm personally a fan of how Shen *immediately* pulls a 180 when he's talking to the soothsayer. "My parents wronged me, and I will right that wrong."
"They loved you, they loved you so much that sending you away killed them."
Shen then goes instantly from "The past is the most important thing to me" directly into "The dead exist in the past, and I must attend to my future". He still needs the justification to follow through with his genocide, but it's so hollow he can flip it on a dime when it suits him.
Me too
He's ultimately a moral-less psychopath that only wants power and immortality but will come up with any excuse on the fly to make himself sound like the hero in his own mind. It's like he comes off as a generic baddie but you realize it's all an act and he's actually waaay more deranged than that
I love that they left the comparison to Tai Lung's similar moment of disregarded revelation in this video
According to TV Tropes, he takes no pleasure in being the villain; and in that moment, he truly regrets his parents' death and realizes just how evil his actions up to his goodbye with the soothsayer are, and he only marches on because he thinks himself too far to turn back (and to be fair, he did commit outright genocide).
@@Wyrmshield It's not power, it's validation, he always thinks he's the victim and therefore wants to prove to a certain someone (on base level his parents, but in reality himself) that he is capable of more than he is given.
Shen throughout the film has lived in doubt and always assumed his family set him up to fail but when the Soothsayer blows his fantasy out, Shen feels regret and guilt for all he's done.
Shen himself does not want any more suffering to ensue but now it's too late to turn back for him.
What I love about Shen is that despite having an army at his disposal he is actually a competent fighter, he was able to keep up against two masters and only backed away when the third arrived.
He knows the limitations of his own combat which is why he decided to build weapons yet will not shield himself with his own troops for protection.
It is possible that when he was still living in the palace and his true nature was revealed his parents wanted him to know how to fight so he could defend himself in case of an invasion and that he just kept practicing even after he was banished
I agree. It adds to his grandeur, taking out enemies by himself rather than using his soldiers.
That way he’s able to put on a show. Using his tail feathers as a distraction/shield, the way his combat is a display of elegance rather than brute force, how he is dressed in robes instead of armor, how when he produces a throwing knife it almost sounds like a bell or wind chime.
He was such a good character as well as a good villain!
Yeah, I feel like it’s really tropey to have characters with armies and super weapons who can’t fight
Eastern/Asian royalty and their children were usually required to be trained in martial arts.
Required to train maybe, but he definitely put lot's of effort into. He can actually fought with furious level fighters, and the figure and shape of him doesn't make it easy.
What a sad and beautiful character
The amazingly sadistic delivery of "Part of you way over there staining the wall" always gets me
I'm seriously didnt get that while I was a kid
English isnt my native language and when im old enough to understand it
He is so dark. So complex too. Literally the best kfp villain.

An interesting part of his backstory is that the Soothsayer goat was apparently a caretaker of his during his youth, so she has the unique position of testing his patience or calling him out.
Yeah, and we can see that in the movie, he never hurts her, he just gets angry at her but doesn't make anything more
Oh yes, I remember commenting that on Schaffrillas’ vid with my alt account- I actually might make a video highlighting their moments but I'm not 100%
The goat is his mother figure.
If anything, she is his parent throughout his life

“Consider it your parting gift. Part of you here, part of you there, and part of you waaaayy over there STAINING THE WALLS!”
That line was pretty hard for a Dreamworks film. Gary Oldman was peak casting.
I'm surprised they allowed that, he basically said master ox was gonna be scattered horrifically in bloody pieces and considering the cannons power I wouldn't be surprised if that's how he actually dies😬😬😬

It'll always be amazing to me how Dreamworks managed to not only make a peacock genuinely intimidating, but make a talking peacock that gets harassed by an overweight panda and a moderately challenged wolf be an absolute badass and fantastic villain. Shen was one hell of a character.

@@LenaHyenaApparently Gary Oldman was a huge fan of the first _Kung Fu Panda_ film that he wanted to have a role in the sequel.
It's so funny how Shen comes back to his parents all happy after killing all the pandas. He's like, "Mom, dad! You're gonna be so proud! I COMMITED GENOCIDE!" Then he's shocked when they're completely mortified LOL
Man was born insane and wanted to make his parents proud, kinda sad 😢
Tbph they were neglectful of him, and considering he was desperate to honor his parents just for one bit it it pretty sad.
@@anotherordinaryfellow6935it's really no wonder why he was more close to soothsayer than his own parents, in the dreamwork site it said that she was his nanny
Its bcuz the soothteller got more influence to ruler than you see, he just have to physically reverse it so his royal family might trust he can be the right successor.
Lord Shen: *Genocides an entire race of people*
Also Lord Shen : *Keeps an old goat that doesn't like him around for no reason*
Probably kept her around out of respect. It was her propechy that started everything, so he wanted her around to prove her wrong. He almost might care for her some as the last remnant of his past or even some kind of caretaker.
Tbh i could see why Shen didn't hurt the soothsayer, because in the official DreamWorks web (Not Wiki, i swear i read this web somewhere in Google) she was his caretaker/nanny when he was a kid, not sure if he cares about her but i think he does (a little bit.)

Whoever decided to make a peacock this scary and badass deserves some awards. Not only designing a scary villain, but also animating his fighting style must be appreciated. The use of his feathers as a distraction and shield against master Croc was genius.

He was projecting.
IMO, Lord Shen is the best Kung Fu Panda villain and one of the most underrated villains. He's sadistic and power hungered to take over China. He's literally the main reason why Po's character arc began.

For the record, Shen is the only villain in this series that forced Po to retreat during their final fight.

True. You can clearly tell how nervous and frightened Po was when he was defending himself against Shen’s rage.
He didn't just force Po to retreat. He BLASTED HIM WITH A CANNON out of the fireworks factory.
Very vicious!!!
@@Gloom_Shroom_Gaming if it wasn't for Soothsayer Shen would have straight up won
@jammygamer8961 If it weren't for the soothsayer, he also wouldn't have killed all of the pandas though.
"I find your stupidity mildly amusing" is my favorite line
Chen was like: “I’m going to eradicate half the population of Panda’s to impress my family”. That goes to show how dark he can be.
It honestly sucked that shen or Kai stay muted in the fourth movie, everyone was disappointed in that scene
Not me! Because I was fine with that
That’s because Shen and Kai were last minute decisions. As were the 5. None of them were supposed to be in the film until the director had to be forced to put them in there. It’s quite insane actually.
I wish the movie just left them out
Shen in KFP 4 is a Walmart version of Shen KFP 2. Such a disappointment
@@ArcticWolf00Alpha0I hate Mike Mitchell, I don’t want him directing these movies. HES TERRIBLE

DreamWorks have never dropped such a cold line since
Shen is The Joker of DreamWorks villains.
More like Frieza from dragon ball series
more like Ruber from Quest for Camelot
Looking at it now, I think I favour villains who use their intelligence as a weapon rather than their strength, because Joker has been my favourite fictional character of all time- I'm talking since I was a kid.

@@Godofnothingness6 i am pretty sure that he was in prison at the time
Tbh Tai long is more grey
@@peteralexandergraae2830From what we know about the timeline, Po is about 30 years old in the second movie. Tai Lung went rogue about 20 years before the start of the first movie and there isn't much of a time skip between the two movie. And Tai Lung would of been in his 20's when he went rogue which would put him in his 40's when he escaped prison.
That would mean that when Po's people were killed and he was found by Mr. Ping, Tai Lung would of at least been a older child at the time. No older than a teenager at most.
9:50 i cannot explain how much i fucking LOVE when movies or entertainment in general has this type of parallel coloring. the dark reds and musty grounds that shen was lying in in contrast to poes golden and white is so stunning and the way both of them were fighting in both areas showing how each of them had their good and bad times but it's the way you handle it as a person that makes you grow
_Y E S_
You get it! I love it when movies take the time to really convey the mood or motivations of characters through more artistic methods.
This is one of the only animated where I actually notice the directing because of the colors, lighting, and different animation styles. It's so specific that it really shows that the director had a vision. And it's a damn good one at that.
"O...kay...?" Is such a proper response to po throwing the 'disk of destruction', you can hear that in shen's tone, the line is delivered as "all right, so this is what we're working with here...?"
One of my favourite villains, ever. He's got...A classy style. A unique design. An elegant form of fighting. A great backstory. A *lovely* voice. A beautiful theme...I could go on.
If I ever manage to produce some form of media, I'll certainly have a character inspired by Shen.
Gary Oldman is now my favourite actor because of this video

@@Adrian-ze9ud I don't think death really counts as a villain
@@DumpsterFire2763 Yes he does. Please, explain me your reasons to believe that he isn't a villain
Shen is without a doubt the best Kung Fu Panda villain. He’s evil, sadistic, intimidating, threatening, menacing, vicious, cruel, violent, cunning, remorseless, and vindictive. His design is elegant and graceful, but still badass. I still can’t believe the animators managed to make a peacock look so villainous. His backstory, while not quite as tragic as Tai Lung’s, is still incredibly tragic. He believed his parents never truly loved him when he was banished as a result of his massacre on the half the pandas. He’s also responsible for the death of Po’s mother and Po being separated from his family. In fact, he’s the only villain who serves as a personal burden to Po and made Po nervous during the final battle, as he aggressively attacked him with his feather blades. And of course, I have to commend Gary Oldman for his sensational vocal performance by sounding slimy, cold, malicious, and cruel!

@@Dr.Oofers that was just an emotional reaction. Shen also had that, at least two infact
Shens beliefs actually changed which was him finally accepting that Po was fated to beat him.

He's not the only one to actually change in his own film but to change in a positive way too.
"How worthless would you have to be, for your own flesh and blood not to love you, even a little"
goddamn, now I know why that is a deleted scene
A reminder that the seer never said that shen being defeated was an absolute.
Only that it would happen if he stayed on the dark path he was leaning towards.
Which is how Shen ultimately keeps cementing his fate more and more.
Even though Gary Oldman is most recognized as for his live-action performances, his voice-acted roles are easily his most memorable.
Viktor Reznov and Lord Shen are characters I will never forget and Oldman made sure of that.
Gary Oldman puts just as much talent in his voice-acting roles as in his live-action performances, and I praise him for that! Too often celebrity voice-casting is so underwhelming and an obvious cash grab

Ignitus from the Legend of Spyro video game series is an elite role of his too in my opinion.

Dreamworks is the only one who can make a peacock look more intimidating then a snow leapord
Lord Shen is, by far, the most ruthless of all the villains and one with the greatest villain design of all the - now - 4 villains in this amazing franchise.

And this is why the second movie will always be my favorite. He was such a well written villain. The story was darker than the other ones. I watched the 4th movie, and it was really great. Loved it! But nothing could top the 2nd movie for me.
Lord, shen was nothing in the 4th movie, unlike him in this movie
If we learn anything from KFP3, they only hires important VA. But for them to not acknowledges and paid VA for all KFP villain is a crime
In KFP3, master croc returns and he got not a single dialogues. Just dumb reptile.
But WHO THE FUCK PITCHING THE SAME IDEA IN KFP4?
WHO have audacity to say "yeah lets not hire all po villain VA and make them dum NPC"
@@theswags9675Forreal. I was so hyped to see Shen and Kai appear in the fourth movie and they did them so dirty 😭. I like the fourth movie but still
@@Abner-gu3veIk Gary oldman left but the way Dreamworks dissed shen made me mad
Wouldn't say the 4th movie is anything groundbreaking. It's mid at best, but I'm glad you liked it; opinions are opinions.
2:33 "He knows your IP address", that image is perfect.
Shen really said "You know what beats kung fu ? GUNS"
Not me reading KFP as ‘Kentucky Fried Peacock’
Wtf 😂😂😂😂 underrated comment
Ah, yes! The best villain in the series:
Evil Peacock Frieza voiced by Gary Oldman
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who made that comparison
actually it's Lord Freeza
“Have fun with your trauma ✌️” I like that part 😂
We went from this fantastic writing to the writing in KFP 4. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
Is KFP 4 really that bad? Me and my dad were gonna have like a double cinema day with seeing KFP 4 and Ghostbusters 😭
@@LD-hs9ivIts an enjoyable movie from what I've heard, just nowhere near the level of its predecessors
@@LD-hs9ivit’s not bad. Diehard KFP fans are acting like it’s the worst movie made in recent years. The criticism is definitely valid tho, and the movie is not quite up to par with the first three, even tho I still enjoy it
One thing I really love about Shen is that this is all about their pride. They won't accept anyone being better than them or deciding their fate. In the end scene where Poe grabs him and he slashes him you can hear his rage and pain in that shout at the thought of being defeated by anyone. But in the end I believe they only closed their eyes because they realized it wasn't Poe who was the warrior of Black and White, it was Shen. The Seers words about if he wins then what, it's a bottomless cup. His whole life has revolved around him not letting anyone else decide his fate. So when his own cannon fell on him he accepted his defeat from himself because it was own doing, he could of easily dodged but he realized he will never find peace otherwise. So him knowing that only he himself defeated himself brought him peace in those last moments, that the seer was wrong that it wasn't Poe. The seer only said a Warrior of Black and White, not a Panda.
Rip Shen...
Damn the explanation makes the scene much more deep.
GODDAMN 💥🔥🖤
RIP old upload. Shall comment on the new version. He's still not allowed to look good before and after genocide, but he does.
This is literally the third time I've had to reupload this vid...
_Can we make it to 4 TH-cam???_
@@LenaHyena Would fit in with the amount of movies this franchise has. Can't wait for the Judge Frollo or King John video.
@@FirithPanda True- I plan on dropping the Frollo vid later this month, I have two others I'd like to get out of the way. Thanks again for sticking around :)
@@LenaHyena Always. This content is as the kids would say "bussin." And remember, Pronce John wants to be called King. Continue mocking him, oo-de-lally
One of the best animation antagonists ever. DON'T CHANGE MY MIND. I love his elegant style of fighting, his voice, his looks and his mind. Brother doesn't need kung fu when he discovered gun powder
In alternate timeline, Shen gets annihilated by a black and white honey badger instead.
Or the Penguins of Madagascar
Or Pepe le Pew lmao
Oh por spy vs spy de MAD
One of my favorite things about kung fu panda is its ability to take its “final battle” scenes like 8:20 and sprinkle just enough humor to balance it out, while not being too humorous to diverge from how serious the stakes are.
Chameleon can't hold a candle compared to Shen.
Fr
She cant hold a candle to kai and he is the least interesting villain of the trilogy.
@@mrdoggo3569chill on my boy Kai. He’s pretty cool too, he ain’t as complex as the first two villains but he’s still sick. Great badass design, used to be a war general that fought alongside Oogway, his chi abilities honestly seem way cooler than shape shifting. It was great to see implications from his backstory that hinted that Oogway used to be bad but he was enlightened and found peace while Kai couldn’t let go of his own ways and succumbed to greed and lust. And his whole motives about wanting to steal children from every master in China to assert his dominance to compensate for his anger and jealousy of being forgotten in the spirit realm for centuries was also pretty good of a motive even if it wasn’t as fleshed out as Tai Lung or Shen
6:40 that flicker of humanity and regret. darn.
4:38
The coldest dreamworks line ever
As much as I love out-and-out uncomplicated villains, I do love complex villains that are understandable without being relatable.
You can see the steps he took and how his ego and misguided beliefs led him to doing terrible things. His death scene sticks with me as an amazing almost-redemption, where he realises he cannot win against Po’s undying love despite everything. He isn’t redeemed in a traditional sense, but he kind of reaches a messed-up kind of inner peace that he was WRONG.
1:49 I love his demented voice and face.
actually if you pay attention in the final scene he's cutting the ropes on purpose. he's done running so he's going to end it himself, a peacock of black and white
“I thought we weren’t supposed to do this in public” IM SCREAMINGGGGG
"Murderous Gary Oldman peacock with parental issues for the win"😂😂😂😂😂😂
He was the only villian that was actually killing other people, making the story better as higher stakes were on the line
8:29 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 How the movie can be so serious and so goofy at the same time????? Legendarily hilarious, actually.
Im a bigger fan of tai lung but even I cannot deny that shen did not mess around
Shen was my absolute favorite villain. The fact that he wasn’t given any lines and only showed up for a second is unforgivable
In KFP4: look how they massacred my boi 😭
Shen actually gave us an error in the timeline: he says he waited *thirty* years, but he was exiled after his attempted genocide of the pandas; Po was probably barely even a year old when this happened, and by the first film Po is around twenty. So unless a; Shen was only around ten years old when he lead the massacre (meaning 30 years would have been all his life), or b; it's been ten years since the first film which would mean the twenty years Shen was in exile as Po grew up plus those ten would equal thirty, we have a complete timeline error on our hands.
Shen is bad at math. I mean he did say that half of the year counted as a full year
I believe shen was older (around 20) when he committed panda genocide, which would make him around 50 when he returned. Age doesn't seem like an inhibitor of their kung fu skills which is probably another reason why all these villains hate Po cuz of how young he is
My idea is Shen was around 10 when he started to dream about conquest and getting power, commited genocide 10 years later, returned from banishment another 20 years later making him around 40 years old in the movie
"Part of you here, part of you there, part of you *waaaaaaay* over there *STAINING THE WALLS!"*
Easily my favorite quote from him
His first acts on screen were building a super weapon & attempted genocide.
Yeesh.
Not attempted just straight up genocide
@@maarekstele2998 “Attempted murder, honestly what is that?! Do they hand out Nobel prizes for ‘attempted’ chemistry?!”
- Sideshow Bob (and probably Shen)
@@garretthildebrandt428 yeah im being a-hole about it sorry lol fun fact the definition of genocide is the targeting of a specific group of people for the purpose of making them no longer exist. So technically no such thing as attempted genocide just is or isn't
@@maarekstele2998 I get that. I only called it “attempted” because he failed.
@@garretthildebrandt428 yeah sorry i just had alot of depressing arguments about stuff like this
We need a "Kai being iconic for 10 minutes straight"
Kai’s theme SLAPS hard
Kai is a generic villain. Revenge. Literal power hungry. But at least they did great for him.
Each of his theme slaps so hard. I think my only issue with him is dreamwork didnt make longer backstory
This dude already collecting all master kungfu chi in afterlife and also oogway. He just keep adding something in his bucket list like little kid.
"I will stop playing once I beat the turtle boss. No, I mean after I escape the nether. No, I mean AFTER the panda boss".
I shall let other channels give the rest of the KFP villains their “being for minutes straight” videos
a tai lung one is bound to appear at least
@@LenaHyenaOMG THANK YOU!!! KAI IS ABSOLUTELY ICONIC THO
@@3takoyakisShen on paper is a more generic villain than Kai. Evil warlord that wants to conquer the world, and supposedly murdered the main characters family. Despite all this he’s still very complex and executed to near perfection. Kai’s motives were simple but they still worked for the type of character he was, his backstory was lacking some context tho
Shen: *Commits genocide*
The chameleon: *proceeds to push someone down the stairs*
4:59 oh my god, OH MY GOD THAT WAS CLEVER OF YOU DREAMWORKS!
WAIT. MICHELLE YEOH WAS THE SOOTHSAYER??? MY QUEEN 🙇🏽♀️
2:31 i coughed my drink out through my nose
3:32 wait i dont
3:52 i dont remember these scenes
man yknow what, maybe the reason they deleted these scenes was to remove his relatability to the audience, make him less likeable and therefore people are not as mad when he dies. but oops some of us still wish he was written w/out death being the end 😭
5:04 YOUR EDITING IS TOP TIER OMG
