ohhhh
it is pretty but this writing & dialogue choices are very.. dopey
some parts feel off though, like the animation doesn't look as good as 3? or I'm seeing things. maybe it's the lighting/atmosphere as we usually don't see the valley in its green/blue peaceful state. the new villagers designs are definitely a choice and it does feel weird seeing more of the valley in the background. kinda feels like a soft reboot oh god
I like that finishing fight with zhen at her introduction, that reminded me this is actually a Kung Fu Panda Film and not a tv show movie special considering how much it gives allat
Shifu doesn't have the patience to tolerate Po's goofiness & he's treated like a bumbling buffoon L BUT Po is smart & adaptive with his surroundings W
like c'mon I'm not a fan of grumpy Shifu please let him be endeared by Po's everything. but no we need all to be exaggeratedly cartoony emoji
the vibes are off and maybe I'm nostalgic tbh I paused this and am in no rush to continue AND would rather watch 1&2
there's this weird flow in terms of locations & scenes that take place. it's so scattered like back and forth this and there
also why... haha cheap funny joke a guy named Steve™ lololol that makes me so angry I'm going to rip his head off
for a kids movie this really isn't terrible. it's not a masterpiece it's definitely watchable if I'm not nitpicking every spoken word but that's not. a kfp standard in terms of 1&2 IM SORRY how can I not compare? the bar is so high. stop treating me like an idiot AND KIDS AREN'T IDIOTS
this is all I have to say for now as a first viewing that got interrupted after.. 16 minutes
