God that movie was so unexpectedly good.
Music, action, characters, pacing, drama, all of it was surprisingly good. I’d say that I am p critical when I watch media, standards are *high* and I thoroughly love this movie.

Yeah, the counter is kinda fucked

I’m gonna start.
I fucking LOVE Kung Fu Panda 2.
This ramble will be a bit all over the place.
Po’s story throughout this movie literally makes me want to cry at every scene.
His discovery of himself and what does and doesn’t define him is so powerful and really resonates me as someone w a troubled past.
I also really love how they showed po’s friends misunderstanding but still genuinely trying ti care for him and validating his emotions. Despite not doing the best at it during some times.

Random thing but when po leaves his dad without saying that he is his son breaks my fucking heart everytime.

The main villain is SO GOOD and Def the best out of the entire franchise and one of my fav villains period.
The way that every time you see him or his goons, there’s a hint of red or the entire scene is absloulty covered in red. Like the blood Shen spilled in the past always follows him, bc it does.
Another thing w the movies lighting is how once Shen shoots down the tower the movie becomes a lot more dramatic and dark than what it already was, being symbolized by it being nighttime for the rest of the movie and sunrise when Shen dies.

Amazing movie.
Yall should watch it if you haven’t and if you have then go watch it again.
