- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- Does anyone remember Fung Fu Panda 2 (2011)? This animated movie is known as the best in the franchise. A cult classic, and from DreamWorks Animation, with memorable performances by Jack Black, Gary Oldman, and Angelina Jolie, this film stars characters such as Po, Lord Shen, Tigress, and Soothsayer.
ALSO, THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I WATCHED THIS MOVIE. IT'S VERY HIGHLY RATED AND ACTUALLY KINDA DARK. IT'S METAPHORICAL, DISTURBING, AND IS SURPRISINGLY ADULT WITH ITS THEMES... BUT IF YOU'RE A KID, YOU'D STILL LIKE IT.

EDIT:
Things I've learned since uploading this video:
- Shens prophecy was about himself
- There's A LOT more black and white animals than I thought
- The third movie is not that bad
- The fortune teller never sided with Shen
- It’s impossible to explain an entire movie as deep as this one in 15 minutes without missing some things
A lot of people think this is the best Kung Fu Panda movie... Do you agree?
Follow me on Twitter for updates and bad jokes: twitter.com/Darzii_
Yes, I agree that Kung Fu Panda 2 is the best of the movies.
Side note: About the "He will be defeated by a warrior of black and white." and Shen going to kill Po's entire species, there's actually a theory, so take this info with a grain of salt, that he also went to kill Snow Leopards, which is why Tai Lung is one of the few snow leopards we see (if you count the Kung Fu Panda TV show. I haven't seen it, but I was told that there's another snow leopard in it.)
@@rlynnmcneil9962yes there is his name is Peng, and and he’s Tai-Lungs nephew
It is its empire strikes back
you said the entire gang broke out of handcuffs "somehow". it was because po put his mantis toy figurine in the cage, which none of them must've noticed because it was real size
kfp4 it makes no sense
"your parents didn't love you" probably the darkest bar you can drop on an orphan 💀
calling it a bar is actually insane dawg 💀💀
Shen hates feeling the pain of his past, and trys to avoid it by giving pain to others(I still can't believe this is a kids movie)
@@angelzavala2254 Bro did the panda’s wrong
the deleted scene sounds more painful: "...worthless must you be for your own flesh and blood, no- not to love you."
the fact that he's saying this to po to mentally torture him just so he can gain advantage of po's PTSD💀
What viewers seem to forget is that Shen is also a Warrior of black and white but it's mainly overshadowed by his white and red Color scheme and Shen was technical killed by his own hand.
That's the fun part about the Prophecy. There are multiple ways to view it.😊
@@ДьулусСтручков-крутой no, Po deflected Shen's attack, causing his demise. So in actuality, Shen did that to himself, Po only defended(deflected the attack) himself.
Shen would never cut a rope by accident... just saying. And the writing for this movie was too on point for him to have an out of character 'blind' rage moment.
If one lets fear run their decisions, fear will decide their outcomes.
@@youngdolph8867 Shen throwing a tantrum after being defeated is literally perfectly in character though
Personally my favorite Shen line:
“Well, you see... it's a gift. It's your parting gift, in that, it'll part you; part of you here, part of you there, and part of you way over there staining the wall!”
"You insolent fool!"
“That is a warning. You are no match for our kung fu.”
🦚☄️🐼🖤🤍2
@@Remote_and_Markeri agree. But *this* is.
more like "....STAAINING the wall !!"
Shen is also a warrior of black and white. His death is due to his own cannon
shen is white, his heart is black
That’s also why tai lung doesn’t have real biological parents. He’s black and white too and probably lost his parents because of the peacock
So,shen is basically racist but also can say the n-word?
@@Random_Editz_REThe strongest from both races 💪
Are you colour blind or smth? He's white and red 😂
KFP1: fist fight
KFP2: CANNONS, DICTATOR, AND RACE GENOCIDE
KFP3: fist fight with m a g i c 🌟
Kfp 3 isn't that bad, is it?
@@Dinmc123More like it's okay. It still has a good heart despite too much kiddy jokes. KFP4 on the other hand....
Cars 1: Racing
Cars 2: A spy thriller involving a cult of lemon cars committing mass terrorism to spread their conspiracy to 'combat' those who have oppressed them.

@@scaranvostok3637I'd say it's on the same level as kp3
@@scaranvostok3637kfp4 wasn't THAT bad, just had weird random dragon warrior choice/unused characters
5:28 actually, in the movie, po makes it clear he already knew he was adopted. when his father tells him he is adopted, he sais "i knew it!" then his father asks "who told you?" "no one but, c'mon!" . Po was confortable with his life till the start of the first movie, thats why he never brought it up. and in the start of the second movie is when they finally have this conversation
I can actually hear them saying this while reading this comment.
@@braveheroanimator4166 same lol
One underrated moment that got me was when Shen ordered the wolf general to fire the cannon, but he refused as he knew it would put his troops in harm's way. Then Shen just straight up throws knifes into his throat right on screen, killing him
He murdered that guy in front of millions of children with their parents and the kids never caught on with that scene. The parents on the other hand…
I don't know why people don't bring this scene more often. It really sells Shen as a ruthless, sadistic and spoiled villain, who just can't afford to hear the word "no".
Corrections: the fortune teller was never on Shens side, Shen just had too much of an ego to let her die before he proves her wrong. The warrior of black and white that defeats shen is himself
The fortune teller was his nanny, hence her being a nanny goat. So he didn't want to kill her because she took care of him growing up, and he felt like she was more of a parent to him than his real parents.
Tigress actually gets her backstory explained in "The secrets of the furious five" along with the other 4. I hate how they side lined them tbh
Her story is the best one too!
@@alexbuswell3500 I love all of them but tigress hits really hard
This might be a reach but Shen is kinda black and white too and he also died to himself by cutting those ropes during his final fight with Po. just sayin
That's why people like the Prophecy. There's multiple ways to interpret it that can be valid.
Well if we know what we know about the 3rd movie the Pandas knew how to bend Chi which basically made them the Chinese equivalent of Wizards. So if Shen knew that and knew that the closest panda village was down the river to his city he would just jump the gun in trying to kill them(and failing since a bunch did survive or a least a good number of them migrating to a secret panda village) not knowing he was seen as evil by his parents.
Or metaphorically, Shen's beliefs were black and white, causing him to decide to die because he couldn't bring them into balance. Sort of like Javert.
I was 9 when i saw this in theaters and it pissed my mom off because it had genocide. Which never came to mind as a possibility in a Jack Black Panda comedy.
A good thing abt kung fu panda 4 is that it brought the first three films back into mainstream media, and we get to appreciate how GOOD they are (the second one is also my favorite)
they literally told Japan WWII through the lens of a childish, fat panda
it's supposed to be ancient china, the fireworks shen use represent gunpowder
@@Redlion1900 ohh I saw it as Japan and the Rape of Nanjing with Shen and the pandas
@@prakh1250makes sense, genocide is genocide
It’s supposed to take place during ancient China, I’m pretty sure it was common back then to raid villages and kill a bunch of innocent people.
Wait i wonder what lord shen look like
8:35 Others have mentioned it before, but there's a theory floating around that the Warrior of Black and White... was Shen himself. Minus the red (which very well can simbolize blood and genocide), he's a black and white peacock, and due to his fighting skills you may as well consider him a warrior. The moment he went to commit mass murder, he sealed the prophecy, there was not turning back, he was going to be defeated by his own actions. During his final moments, one of the cannons falls on top of him, and he closes his eyes awaiting death by what he himself created. Admitedly, there's a minor problem with this theory, notably the use of the word "defeat", rather than something more straightforward than "kill", but dang it, this theory is too cool and it's my headcanon.
Shen is King Herod from the Bible
Dude made the hardest thumbnail and thought we wouldn’t notice. 💀👌
Genooside
What lil bro yappin about
@@user-tt6jr7rz5l The best thumbnail of course
Fr insta clicked on this video. His thumbnails are consistently good
Xddd
12:01 I really like that line from Shen. Shen knows more than anyone there what it feels like to believe your parents do not love you; so Shen using that as a weapon after the scene where the fortune teller challenges his perspective on his parents is really interesting to me.
I want to add that shen most likely painted his feathers red so one can look at it as defeating himself
He's the warrior of black and white
12:19 she switched sides and helps po because shen tells her that she’s free to go earlier in the movie revealing that she wasn’t working for him on her own will, that’s why she’s living on her own by the river as well.
Rewatching KFP 2 as a young adult, I genuinely cried, THATS HOW GOOD IT WAS REWATCHING IT ALL THOSE YEARS LATER.
I‘ve watched it again when I was 16 and was surprised how good This Movie was
Even the end credits was spectacular
There was that short film explaining the furious five backstories. Tigress was in an orphanage and everyone was afraid of her.
As an avid Kung Fu Panda 2 lover, any video essays about this movie puts a smile on my face. I appreciate when people recognize this movie for more than just a child’s movie because I believe thats what it is. Honestly I think this is one of the more morbid films dreamwork has produced but I think thats why I love it so much.
Thats awesome! I love your positivity honestly. Hope to make more videos about the 3rd and 4th movie eventually!
15:30 i like to image shen decided to die there because he wanted to break the phrophecy of that "defeated by a panda" by instead dying to his own weapon falling on him...
so technically he died to his own weapon and his own hands and not defeated by a panda
shen, continuing the trend of narrowing "warrior black and white" to "panda" till the bitter end, ironic since he himself is a warrior of black and white
what???, the fortune teller never switched team, cause she was never on shens side
Yeah that confused me a ton
Exactly, she ridiculed him for overreacting to her fortune-telling
She was just there but not on Shen’s side
she just set all the events in motion with the fortune-telling, kind of like master turtles vision of tai lung gets free.
And btw you do not seem to understand the movie at all, tigress didn't leave Po she litterly said she did not want to see his friend getting hurt, you can see her reach to Po at the end to not see him die and she wanted Po to stay alive. The fortune teller never switched teams, she was never on shen's team shen just kicked her out. And he did not find inner peace becuase of the death of his parents, he kept on having visions about his parents dying but not knowing what happened, he always fought back the memories which made him unpeacefull with himself, but at that moment he let his memories tell Po what really happened and he found out what happened. Then he found his inner peace. This movie is so amazing because even tho it is pretty childish sometimes it is very serious and very emotional, unlike the new movie which is just goofy in a bad way not serious at all.
The "Black and White" refers to the peacock and not the panda. The peacock died as a result of its attack of its ship.
I just realised the genocide is like really similar to the airbender genocide in avatar
What do you mean the goat randomly changed sides? She was never on Shen's side throughout the whole movie.
the warrior of black and white that would stop him, was himself, peacocks are usually not just 2 colors, he could have black feathers
Dude. Just want to say I'm proud of you! Your journey is amazing to watch. Stoked things are working out!!
Thank you for always being there dude!!
@@TheRealDarzii At 0:46 you're not wrong heck even boomstick from the RUclips channel called death Battle where they made po face off against another dragon warrior, and boomstick himself admitted: "geez Kung Fu Panda really got dark with the sequel 😯", And that's the reason why you're not wrong. 😅😅😂😂😂
@@DavidMuri-lm5vy Yeah, I guess
The prophecy is that shen will kill himself, as po never defeats shen.
well it sucks when you realise all of these emotionally impact scenes get scrapped in the next parts
The prophecy is actually referring to Shen himself, since his mental state and the murderous actions caused by his insecurities will lead to his demise. In a scene, Shen is depicted as half white and half black, and at the end his own machine of genocide fell on him and killed him.
The thumbnail and title just popped up and it honestly was really funny.
Anyways, Kung Fu Panda 2 is goated
Glad you liked it!
You're blowing off dude, congrats. Just wanna say your first KFP video's thumbnail helps a lot to attract people, and your awesome video retained those viewers. Keep up the great work. Waiting for the third one now lol.
I have been waiting SO long. We love you for this
It's only the beginning! Appreciate you watching :)
The Grim Reaper in the Sims 3 when an unlucky sim dies: 10:16
Po unlocked Ultra Instinct mid-fight
Honestly Underated Video, You deserve more subs!
Slowly but surely getting there!
When Shen gives up the black and white warrior that kills him is himslef he died due to a cannon he made
You realise that shen was the only villain dead and the only 2 were sent to the spirit realm.
9:03 there is a theory that Shen also killed white tigers which explains why Tai Lung was an orphan too
*white leopard
To be fair about the lack of animal jokes for other characters, there are a good few, like Mantis getting annoyed over being called small or his joke about mantis mating practices (the whole eating his head thing), and there was that part where they made fun of Crane going “Ca-caw!” Of course they aren’t as prominent as Po’s jokes, but Po is the main character.
Also, I enjoyed the video, thank you for making me laugh.
I’m glad you enjoyed! And good point about the animal jokes! I knew I was being a little harsh, so I’m glad you called me out haha
legends of awesomeness may not be on the same level, but it did have plenty of those for the five, like monkey having hands, evil po using viper as nunchucks (😭) and tigress at one point chasing and catching po like a playful housecat. in the third film, there's a call back to tai lung's kitten yelp, but with tigress, and kai calls her "little kitten", though that's less of a joke and more just kai being creepy. next movie needs to have tigress sitting in a box.
All the furious five got a short film going over their backstories
the next movie should have a zebra who race was wiped out by shen and this zebra meets po
In the end, it was Shin that defeated himself, who was also a warrior of black and white
3 is the best, realistic and best light shading i have ever seen
It’s better than kfp4. That movie can burn in hell
the sequel we needed came out!!! not talking abt king fu panda these vids are so good man ❤️
KFP 2 has to be one of my favorite movies ever.
I love the dynamic between Po and Tigress it's genuinely heartwarming and funny
You can feel the struggle with Po and genuinely fear for his life.
The jokes are actually funny.
The villain is interesting and threatening. He gives out deadly plans through wit and cunningness. He is just genuinely smart and that makes him terrifying as well as entertaining (Plus he's British we love that)
And some of my greatest memories from when I was a young child have this movie playing in the background.
Darzii in the last video: "I'm Rewatching kung fu panda!"
Darzii in this video: last time I watched kung fu panda for the first time!"
Wtf haha. I honestly have no idea why I said that in the first video. This year was my first proper time watching these, I swear! lol
Man I love The clips that you chose for your videos like the kid falls into creek and STOP NO DON'T KILL ME.
keep up the great work man :))))))
Thank you! Appreciate it :)
I hope this channel grows real big
Tbh shen just made a cannon
I also just woke up
love your gaming references LMAO , got me dying HAHAHAHA
Think about it. Tai lung was also orphaned just like po, just dropped off in a different area. What if he was dropped off by his parents because Lord Shen murdered the snow leopards, too? And then other black and white animals?
9:49 That dialogue from Shen made me die.
the analog horror short of shen haunting poe is actually well done and disturbing.
6:38 i love how in the editing you also added a shadow for the uno reverse card lol
Can we talk about the fact that Shen, despite being an evil dictator, had a soft spot for the Soothsayer to let her go, instead of killing her? He probably had closer bond with her than with this parents because the Soothsayer was his nanny since he was a little kid or even a baby
Thank you for taking notice of shen closing his eyes
15:32 i saw somewhere that shen realized that he was the warrior of black and white
"anyway that's enough chit chat"
smile of derangement
Child po my beloved
Also just like you said the warrior of black and white could be any animal EVEN SHEN cause he gave up and LET himself fall
15:30 he actually lets the cannon crush him to avoid his own fate, since technically he wasnt defeated by Po, but by gravity damage, making him the only character in the entire series to avoid his prophecy
8:30 this jumpscared me and made me die of laughter at the same time 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
also 8:56, shen is black and white too(and red ig but still) and he kills himself at the end o/ the movie
In my opinion
Kung Fu panda 1: 8/10- really good, self contained story about believing in yourself
Kung Fu panda 2: 10/10 surprisingly deep and emotional story about trauma and forgiveness
Kung Fu panda 3: 6/10 decent story, more comedic focused. Ok end to this good trilogy
Trilogy, lol. 4th one ruins it
@@DiamondDepthYTWhat fourth? It doesn't exist :)
Can I just say, props to the editor for adding that shadow effect at 6:39. I had to do a double take when watching 😂
Edit: Also subbed, love the content.
Thank you! It doesn’t line up exactly how it should, but I figured it was good enough haha
Epic video and GREAT editing! Well done!!!! ^^
Thank you!
I wanna say this in the most dramatic way
WE. DONT. NEED. TO. DUMB. DOWN. MOVIES. FOR. KIDS.
20 views? That's crazy 💀
Bro fell off 💀
Never though I'd see my man with 400 views 💀
Fr
lil bro done fell off💀
damn
damn dragon fable that hit me in nostalgia 4:58
8:35 I'm still surprised no one mentioned that Shen HIMSELF is black and white.
Weird fact, Shen says that he’s been planning on ruling for 30 years. Meaning that he’s been banished for that long. So Po is at least 30. I kinda like that he’s that old since Po is kinda past his prime but still living his best years.
The second movie made me cry. It was so amazing but so sad.😭
The clever thing about the line ‘a warrior of Ballack and white’ could refer to Shen himself. He does bring his own downfall, and he is mostly those two colours, with some red highlights.
0:26 WOAH Morshu! In this type of modern gen RUclips video!? Thought I wouldn't see the legend in it haha
KFP2 has a special place for me won a raffle at school to go see it in theaters
10:17 the line delivery.. simply immaculate. Chefs kiss. 👌👌👌
Im with you man, dw about the low views.
I love the first Shen fight scene. When he starts losing he just pulls out a gun and shoots the enemy in a face
He's efficient, I'll give him that
12:20 I'm pretty sure the fortune teller was never on Shin's side... 😅
I Think the reason behind Shen only genociding the Pandas, and not any other Black and White animals, is beacuse of the reputation pandas had. Like fx. they were all masters of Chi (explained in the third movie)
I love the way bro just roasts every one💀💀
no way bud only has only 15k subs , guys rlly you need to show this man some support
dont say po is stupid because he only discovered he was adopted when he as 20, cause it took my stupid ass to notice that only when the spinoff series was almost in the end that something clicked on me and i noticed how tf is a panda the son of a goose
The fortune teller was let go by Shen at the forge area. Shen let her leave instead of killing her
16:42 don’t say that that’s harsh dont say it take it back
2:58 They make fun of Mantis' size quite often though
Po fr the last guy in dodgeball
I love how you started this video the exact same way you started the kung fu panda 1 video.
If it aint broke, dont fix it!
"I envisioned it... a little to the left." Is an underated joke that makes me laugh everytime i rewatch this movie.
My best part is when shen said: here let me heal you.
Proceeds to shot cannon at him
what happened in 2001?
Don’t look it up 💀🙏
its a shame that you never mentioned one of the best lines in the movie. "Happiness must be taken, and i will take mine"- lord Shen
The truth is the fortune teller meant that the bad guy would defeat himself
Genuinely a high quality video that made me laugh, only having 12k subs is insane
Slowly climbing!
I just watched the first Kung Fu Panda video. I'm then like:
Huh, I wonder if he made a second one.
SECOND VIDEO, AN HOUR AGO.
I might have accidentally done a darzii summoning ritual.
Also is there a video of his full reaction to the movie?
You summoned me!
And as of now, there isn’t a full reaction anywhere. I might add them somewhere eventually, but today is not that day. Sorry!
7:29 Didn't even know this scene existed, and I watched Kung Fu Panda 2 as a kid. 😭
No, for 3rd and then 4.
