So I really like this movie, despite the flaws in the first half and some of the jokes. I have the same critique that Greg mentioned that some newer Marvel movies have. Some moments that could be really impactful or badass, they cut short with a joke. I think there's a small defense for some of them here, but still. Like when Po fully released his Chi and was forming the Gragon Spirit before he declared that he is The Dragon Warrior. I think they should've let that moment either breathe much more or set up the moment more so it has more impact. Because that seemed like it could've been one of the highlights of the movie. Po having this ultimate moment of destiny, manifesting and he is now above what he set out to be. Although he's not as fleshed out as Tai Lung or Lord Shen, I really like Kai. He's pretty badass, and has an incredible theme. Of course J.K. Simmons lifts a lot of that weight with his amazing voice work. But he's definitely the weakest villain compared to the previous two. I love this trilogy and it's definitely in my top 10 as well. It's so rare trilogies land, let alone like 85% of said trilogy being truly phenomenal. I think one of the best animated trilogies for sure. So funnily enough, I adore Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness. I think it really oddly enough, carries the legacy of Po and has some really unique and fun adventures, as well as some very touching moments too. I guess I'll just inject the idea (Maybe watch an episode and possibly make it a patreon exclusive, to see if its your thing?) It might just be nostalgia but I remember really liking the show. (Has a great intro too) Just consider it π

2023-05-19 05:45:09 +0000 UTCIt may be considered the least of the three, but it still has its moments. Jombies! π Dumplings of doom! "Stripy baby! Stripy baby!" π Oogway! The double dad defense! Everyone helping with their chi π₯ΉThe dragon warrior scene π Beautiful animation and wonderful score. And of course Po is still as lovable as ever π₯° Perfect sync my dudes! Thanks for putting in the extra effort on this one. It was well worth the wait. Fun fact: Pandas do actually roll and its so stinkin cute! My ranking is 1, 2 then 3. I said this on the last one but nothing can match the nostalgia of the first one for me so it will always be my favorite of the trilogy. This has been so fun! I've loved rewatching these with you guys! Can't wait for the 4th one. Much love π€π€π€π€ And as always, skadoosh!
