Cute little detail, Mr. Ping (Po’s goose dad) now sells tofu at the restaurant after Po accomplished his dreams of becoming a kung fu warrior because back in the first movie he said making tofu was just a silly dream of his. It’s nice.
Fun side note: there's a short Kung Fu Panda movie called Secrets of the Furious Five which reveals the backstories of the Five. Tigress got left at an orphanage where she was isolated because she couldn't control her strength or temper. When Po is explaining that Shen was there when he last saw his parents and that he needs to know what happened, Tigress was likely also imagining herself in the same spot. That's why she hugs him: she empathizes with him more than anyone else could, but she also has to deny him the answers he (they) wants in order to save his life.
Some sad history behind the wolves: Shen was the only who treated them with respect and kindness, and they were the palace guards. Hence why they were so loyal to him.
Shen is one of the best antagonist i've ever seen. Not only design-wise (cuz no way making a freaking Peacock badass is not cool) but also story-wise. He's so deep, and his relation with Po is so well-written, kinda funny and somewhat very impacting, again the fight scenes are very Badass, thx to the choregraphy & the music.
(In case you haven't realized)
Shen in a sense is a spoiled brat, an eternal dissatisfied person (because of his albinism but that's not the main conflict), despite the fact that he understood on his own, during the final fight (the one before his death , with the armada) that he will never be able to defeat Po... In any case Shen is fighting against the destiny that he himself built, a circle of hatred that won't stop till his death.Yet, deep down, rooted in his subconscious, Shen has always rejected the idea of facing failure. For me the last scene between Shen & the Soothsayer represents this well, he is in an emotional abyss, therefore more suited to a character turnaround, to a redemption arc. For me, this scene is an indirect admission by Shen. Like, I think in this scene, he still has the nastiness and the rage to defeat Po, but he knows despite everything that she may be right. And despite the fact that his destiny is all mapped out : Po or Shen winner, one of the 2 will die. He continues, his head held high towards his tragic destiny, which is why, for him, she is no longer useful, she no longer has anything to predict according to him. It's the scene where he seems more apt for a redemption arc, and this for me is represented by the abandonment of the goat, she was the only one who kept him ever so slightly, towards the light. But he let her go of her own free will. Moreover, an interesting point in terms of psychology is that unhappy people (like suicide level) tend to want to share their unhappiness, to want to share as much suffering and pain as possible with those close to them or even with the world. It's exactly the same for Shen. Whether it goes from the simple mistreatment of minions, to the invasion of entire China, he perceives this quest for power as a means to vent his rage on someone or something. Which contrasts well with Po's extremely jovial appearance. In any case, I think we can say that i like this character !
In fact this movie is my 2nd favorite animated movie, the 1st place is occupied by Rango, an hidden & lost Masterpiece which i deeply reccommend !
It's pretty annoying that these two didn't see how brilliantly well written Shen was. They just saw him on a surface level for some reason
Many people have seen these movies more than once. It's their first time watching so it's understandable.
Another brilliant detail: the soothsayer tells Shen that he will be defeated by a warrior of black and white. Shen is a black and white warrior. His own decisions and inability to find peace is what destroys him. He and Po are both the prophecy and Shen doesn’t even realize it.
The Kung Fu Panda trilogy has some of the best music in any movie
True :D especially Kai's theme song
facts
Fr though, it's so good ❤😩🙏
Oogway's theme alone shows that
Lord Shen is probably the best villain in the Kung Fu Panda franchise, and potentially the greatest villain in all of Dreamworks.
That inner peace scene for Po always makes me tear up. The pain that he went through... you really just feel it like a hammer blow. They did such a beautiful job with that scene! They do an amazing job with all of these movies.
Shen is definitely one of my favorite darker villains of the three movies!
Oh niiice... Can never go wrong with Kung Fu Panda 2. The triloy in general is just awesome
Okay so just wanna clear this up what Po's dad used was not a hammer it was some kind of farm tool or broom. Rhino's hammer was something completely different. Just wanna point that out since a lot of reactors seem to think the same thing for some reason.
Just about to say this, like they always forget about the giant hammer wielding rhino at the beginning of the film 😂
To piggy back off this, when Po’s dad hit one of the wolves, it scarred and blinded one of its eyes. We later see Shen’s right hand wolf with an eye patch, it’s heavily implied (I don’t know if it was confirmed) it was Shen’s right hand wolf who got injured by Po’s father.
A very good villian indeed.. i told you this movie is even better then the first one ;) Also the messages of parenting is so sweet, also the terrible sickness of "Selfdoubt"
One thing I really like about Lord Shen is that, while he is a dark and terrible villain, he never harms the Soothsayer. No matter how she mouths off or defies him harming her is a step too far, even for him.
He's obsessed with the future 🔮, he's a smart villain why would he get rid of the only way of knowing the unknown. She knows this, that's why she doesn't fear speaking her mind.
@@MelonMedley179 She helped raise him, that's why he has affection for her.
@@timemonkey Wrong. He values her abilities, without them he would betray her just like he did the palace guards who were loyal.
@@MelonMedley179 He never listens to what she tells him so he's not just focussed on her abilities. You've missed the point entirely.
@@timemonkey Wrong. He's a twisted villain that turned his back on his own parents. Yet you say he has affection for her. Laughable intellect.
Perfect timing I’m about to destroy my Chick-fil-A meal
The thing I love most about Po is how no matter how strong and famed he becomes, he's still got that inner fanboy and pure love for kung-fu. And Shen is my favorite of the trilogies villains. He's very complex and in the end, accepts his death because he probably knows he's gone to far down the wrong path.
"Never thought a peacock would be a menacing villain" He he well you know many dinosaurs evolved into birds, and ever seen a peacock? These birds are huge and their claws are sharp.. also Turkeys..these birds are vicious. And because they are holy animals in china just like the crane bird in Japan.
Turkeys are vicious. I knew guys that caught them for shipping to market and they got hacked up bad. I caught chickens and got pecked a bit but nothing too bad.
The warrior of black and white is actually Shen himself. The prophecy says that had he continued his dangerous path of manufacturing dangerous weapon, it will lead to his defeat.
To add up to this, the prophecy says defeat, not die. He was defeated by getting his ship blown up by his own canon ball, which Po tossed. Had he accepted his fate, he would have lived and perhaps have a final chance. But he thought that simply accepting defeat and moving on with his life would make the lives he took in vain, so he either had to succeed or die. You can see that once he cut the ropes in the final fight, it was an attempt at him ending himself and taking Po down with him, finally he accepted death and found his inner peace once the canon fell.
If Po died in the first act, no one would have saved the 5 from being captured, the masters would still have no hope. "Kung Fu would be lost". Po was the catalyst to his own downfall.
Part 2 is a perfect sequel. As I send in your video of the first movie. The first movie was about training the body, this movie is about training the mind, and the third is about training the spirit. And we get J.K Simmons in 3.
When Shifu showed up at the final battle I got goosebumps. He is my favourite character. And I like that Po is still such a kung fu fanboy even though he is already the Dragon Warrior.
There is a theory that Tai Lung, the snow leopard villain from the 1st movie, could have been the one to take down Shen since he is also black and white. Both were orphans and taught kung-fu by Shifu. The theory is that Shen wanted to take out all animals that were black and white to prevent the prophecy from coming true and Po was the one who got chosen to be the dragon warrior
I think the black and white warrior is Shen himself
@@MintyMit That is the most popular theory by far.
@@MintyMit He met his destiny on the road he chose to avoid it.
First reaction I’ve watched where I don’t mind the movie blinking because bro that dog is HILARIOUS.
This is my favorite of the trilogy (and all 3 are great in their own right).
Gary Oldman's performance is amazing.
The crocodile is Jean-Claude van Damme.
so i apparently started watching the reaction to KFP 1 one minute before you uploaded this so i repeat; i am so glad you are enjoying these, this series is one of the few trilogies where all three are good movies, with this one specifically being my favorite.
I remember seeing this in the movies as a birthday night out and on the same night I got 007 goldeneye for the wii…damn those were some good times!
Can't believe they're bringing back all the villains for the fourth one. It's gonna be epic!
Out of the 3 movies I think kung fu panda 2 is my favorite
This trilogy is pure awesomeness, and so are you! Good reaction and thoughts at the end.
0:43 What a little baby, aw.
What an adorable puppy you have
This is my personal favorite of the trilogy, so I'm sure you two will love it or at least hopefully, time to actually watch the reaction
Watch the "secrets of the furious 5". It's their origin story
I've watched many many movies and am very reserved for what I give a 10/10 but this movie man, it more than deserves it.
I need a calendar so i know what movies you guys are reacting too 😊
I love your reactions videos ! 🐸🐸
Master Shifu had the coldest intro in the final battle 🙌😂
When Po’s mother sacrifices herself, that shit is gut wrenching
Can't wait for 3rd one
Something of note, while it was cut from the film a part of Shens backstory was that he was abused by his parents for being an albino peacock. This can still be gleaned from some of his lines like when he says his parents wronged him you can hear it in his voice.
What kinda happy pills did you give that rabbit? He been asleep the whole show.
I just love how even the soothsayer with her magic sees china as the whole world cause by their philosophy they r the middle kingdom the centre of the world and surrounded on all sides by Barabarians so her powers from her gods would also reflect that
Puppy Cam for the win!
Really cool that you are tuned in in this journey of Po's self discovery.
The movies so far really do a good job of showing his character development along with the rest of the cast.
The main difference and similarity I see in villains like Tai Lung and Shen is how the former is an enclosed event yet hes so distant to Po, whereas the latter is greatly increase in the scope of his actions, yet it feels a lot more personal.
As always, is a pleasure to see you guys react.
My favorite movie.
My favorite Movie out of the Three.
So, are you going to do the TV Show too at some point?
The original script had Shen’s parents be ashamed of him being an albino, so he was basically raised by the Soothsayer. They removed this part of his backstory, so his kindness towards her is a little unexpected
I feel like you guys really undersell Shen. While he definitely IS an entitled brat, there was *alot* more to it than that, and even his brattiness was in small increments.
This mo ie still makes me cry. A gokd standard for a sequel.
Как же я ждал когда вы начнете смотреть эту замечательную тройку мультфильмов и наконец-то вы пришли к ней! Вон уже вторая часть а теперь с нетерпением жду третей!
My favourite one.
Awesome!
My favorite of all the trilogy, I'm sure you'll enjoy the third one as well, it might be inferior in some ways to the other two, but it's still a great movie:)
One of a few trilogies that doesn't have a bad movie
@@tmtorsmth Agreed
@@tmtorsmthtrue
As much as I enjoyed your reactions to this gorgeous film, I will have to say one thing; Sorry but you guys are completely wrong about Shen. He is definitely a stronger villain that Tai Lung primarily for the reason that he is directly responsible to the events of Po's life. In that he is literally the one that put Po on the path of becoming the Dragon Warrior in the first place. He's more emotionality exposed and compromised than he let's on in that while he may seem spoiled, it's because he really has nothing left going for him. Deep down he knows he can't change his fate and conquering China is his big goal because, what else does he have left? He's very broken and a very tragic character. I am actually very surprised you two didn't catch that, especially when he had his final scene with Soothsayer.
I think it's unfortunate that you didn't see how deep of a character Shen actually is. He is undisputedly the best written villain in Kung Fu Panda
by the way, i would like you to do Mario & Sonic all Anime Intros by LordTRex at some point.
Please react to more animation 😊
... you guys did it again. You cut out most of Shen's best parts.
ESPECIALLY the "Parting Gift" scene. It's so genuinely chilling the vitriol in his delivery of _"STAINING THE _*_WALL!"_*
Like, I understand that you guys need to cut parts for CZcams copyright problems, but the cuts that you've decided to make just bother me. It's like, all of THE scenes I wanted to see a reaction to. Tai Lung's fight with Shifu, many of Shen's more humorous & really intimidating deliveries.
Their take on Shen was pretty bad too. He's literally the best written villain and they don't see that
We started the movie with a genocide
React cars movie please
alot of people did say part 2 was better than the first but i disagree, there was far more comedic relief in part one than part 2 imo, but the fight scenes in definitely better in part 2 xD maybe a 50/50 for me
Ya but for most the deeper more serious storyline and more complicated villain while still delivering good one liners is what makes the second one great.
Kung fu panda 3❤
1st
Perfect lesson from this movie is we don’t get to choose how does our story begins but we do get to choose how to write it. And we even can see how both Shen and Po did not have the best beginning of their stories, but by choosing different paths they each reached a different ending. Shen’s led him to his demise; Po’s led him back home to his family.
🐼🦚🥋✌🏻🤍🖤❤️
That dog always sleeping
That's because he's a happy boy.
😂😂 leave Bucky alone
