I would imagine he got lucky with a 2 year sentence given that the max he could've gotten was 25. :wink:

1 and 2 were great. The art direction, computer graphics, shading and colors were top notch.It was quite immersive for me.. I'm looking for some kind of similar movie .
I hope you guys can help me out with finding movies similar to Kung Fu Panda
I found some recommendations on the sites https://bestsimilar.com/movies/38922-kung-fu-panda-3 and http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2267968/?ref_=nv_sr_1

Kung Fu Panda 4 gets release date: March 8, 2024. As I've said before, I'm totally up for another! One of my most favorite franchise.

I feel the same, Daniel. A uniquely wonderful movie universe that actually seems to get better as it goes along. :)

I'm so happy they've finally announced another one. I admit the third one was on the weaker side, but I loved the first two. Hopefully this one will have less focus on all the panda village and more on Po's group of fighters again.

No footage was shown during CinemaCon, but Jack Black described the plot:
Po will now be deciding who will be the next Dragon Warrior, as he’s receiving his own promotion as the highest master of the Valley of Peace. In planning his succession, Po meets a female Fox warrior named Chen. They don’t get along at first but must learn how to put their differences aside in order to travel into the city for the first time ever and face the Chameleon, a sorceress who can summon every single villain from past films back from the dead. Po and the next Dragon Warrior to be must face every single one of the franchise’s big baddies in order to defeat the Chameleon, who’s the most powerful of them all.
Genuinely clever way of bringing back characters. Gives me No Way Home vibes... except only villains. Sounds so awesome. The thought of more Tai Lung! I'm totally hyped!

Yes, more Tai Lung would be awesome! :). It would also be really cool if they revealed his true origins. I mean, who left him on Shi Fu’s doorstep in the first place?

Bit of a random explanation for bringing them back, but, y'know, whatever's needed to create maximum jeopardy. Guess it’ll work. Might be cool if it turned out Tai was left by…the Chameleon…! Would that even work? Dun-dun-duuuuuun! ;)

The first lesson in working for DreamWorks is learning how to write that unironically.

Bet they pick up all new differences once they’re in the city, and then work out they’re not so different after all…just in time for the third act. ;)

The number 4 in Chinese is nearly homophonous to the word "death" and this deals with bringing back past foes from the dead. Doubt intentional but cool connection!

Shh! They’ll pick up on that stroke of unintended genius and say it was their plan all along! ;)
