Kung Fu Panda

Ah, toilet humor. The most annoying and overdone cliche known to man.

Ah, multiverse fanservice, the same cinematic excrement that we've seen too much of since No Way Home.

Let's move on to something better.

[Dacey]

There’s no sign of this involving a multiverse?

[GeffreyDrogon]

Bringing back old villains is what I mean by "multiverse".

[Dacey]

It’s the underworld, so much more of a “back from the dead” thing.

[Ben]

The Deadverse?

Do you think this movie will actually be good?

[Ben]

Ugh…

"Awkwafina".

I’m just getting so tired of her raspy voice in practically everything thesedays…

Jack Black (with Tenacious D) performing Britney Spears' Baby One More Time at the Kung Fu Panda 4 premiere:

Apparently it's in the end credits of the movie.

[Ben]

Love the D.

[Dacey]

That’s awesome!

[James]

That’s awesome!

On the one hand, I’m happy that there’s work for DWA animators.

On the other hand:



1 and 2 were both incredible, 3 was ok, (a little overrated), and I didn’t see 4. Another sequel is just going to chip away at the already crumbling legacy of that perfect first film.

Yeah, we loved the first one, thought the second struggled, and although I’ve had the disc since it came out, never got around to the third. All three played on TV here when the fourth came out, so even though I have nice discs, I recorded them all and will likely end up catching up on them again via that method before I see the fourth. No real surprise on another one: if Chris Meledandri thinks keeping DWA franchises going is the ticket to also allowing them to produce occasional new originals, it’s just the way Hollywood is going to Hollywood.
