    It's really sad how Tai Lung got hold of the Dragon Scroll and couldn't see what it was supposed to mean. Po said "It's blank!" which indicates his view of the world, he's a blank canvas that has potential. However, Tai Lung sees the scroll and said "It's nothing!" which indicates that his point of view of the world, that he's trained so hard and got so far, but deep down he still feels that he, HIMSELF, is nothing.
    Very sad, about as sad as Tai Lung confronting Shifu, asking him during the fight "are you proud of me, Shifu?" and "who was the one who filled my head with dreams?! Made me train until my bones broke?!" I feel immense sympathy for both Tai Lung and Lord Shen from Kung Fu Panda 2. They had been guided in the beginning to be the next big thing in their sphere of influence. But, each one somehow went...wrong. And the parents of each villain had to cast their sons out of their lives forever.

    If we take Dustin Hoffman's idea for Shifu's backstory into consideration, is that he was a previous Dragon Warrior Candidate who was denied the scroll and made a vow to create a Dragon Warrior instead. Shifu's idea of control is based on making a Dragon Warrior his way and by association proving himself validated for the position he was rightfully denied. So it can only be by his personal method that he's crafted that would make creating a Dragom Warrior as his own personal redemption for not measuring up to become The Dragon Warrior himself.
    His arc is realizing he was wrong and being at peace with who actually is The Dragon Warrior and that level of absolute control is impossible and detrimental to someone's growth.

  • @meganj2799

    I had never before thought of Tai Lung's tail being not immobilized anymore because it was just stepped on. And the fact that Po is just as good as Tai Lung at improvising. Shifu and the Five were "proper" and fought in a style more by the book and therefore more predictable.

    Fun fact: The Furious Five and Po, in their names, animals, and individual fighting styles, are representative of six actual forms of the Kung Fu martial art (Tiger, Mantis, Crane, Monkey, Viper, and Panda).
    The Panda style of Kung Fu is about using your opponents' attacks and momentum against them, which is something you see Po do time and time again.

    @The-X-Territory 13 часов назад

    I feel like Tai Lung saying “it’s nothing” at his own reflection is a sign of his upbringing, raised to be the ultimate warrior, he has no true character beyond his warrior instinct.
    Po is a blank canvas with bounds of untapped potential, he has yet to accomplish anything, and there’s infinite possibilities for him. Hence why “it’s blank”, it’s a picture that’s yet to be painted, and this is finally his chance to paint it.

    (I would also recommend Hazbin Hotel, but since you're christian and the show is very critic about the religion, I dont know how you could feel about it... and is a little bit too heavy and sorta demoniac. But is really great and precious, the critic is more on the unforgiveness for those who were once bad and lack of second chances for the ones who want to try being better)

    If I'm being completely honest, I connect with this movie series a LOT more than I did with How to Train Your Dragon, at least on a personal level. Being a bit of a bigger, overweight guy who's been easy to dismiss or... underestimate for a lot of my life, the thematic notes of this series hit a lot closer to home for me. As do the messages of self mastery as a path to finding your true place within the world. I love those messages on a very powerful level, and I don't care what anyone thinks about the series, it speaks very directly to me on a very high level.
    Also, Sifu and Oogway are representative of different Chinese philosophies. Sifu is Confucianism, whereas Oogway is Daoism. It is a really interesting rabbit hole to dive into to see the differences in the philosophies that each of them represent. As for Oogway's passing, I don't feel as though it was when Oogway needed it, but when he knew that he had done all that was required of him. Choosing Po... and setting Po on the path to overcoming the disapproval of the others... and when Sifu needed to be left to solve all of this on his own. Oogway "saved" Sifu back in the past... but now Sifu needed to find his own path to victory... by trusting the right person.

      @@thecocoacouch That is quite true. Both of us with wonderful potential, and yet there is so much of self-confidence, and learning to value ourselves that goes into all of this. That goes into life.
      A lot of where I've struggled for the last several years is investing myself into people who... simply don't see the value in me... but who I want to see the value in me - purely for myself... rather than for the "functionality" that I provide. And... coming to recognize that they never will. Regardless of what the relationship with them should be... if they don't, they aren't worth breaking my back over... losing that core of _myself._
      Yes, this is 1 am ramblings from me to a large degree, but when Po is talking about "If I'm not the Dragon Warrior, then who am I?" That is Po stuck in a transactional sense of value... and in that movie, he had to learn how to move past the purely transactional valuation of himself. Po's journey has, to such a large degree, been one of coming to realize and understand that he does... and has always had value that doesn't depend on the opinions of others... that he's got value simply by virtue of being himself. That's been my journey, too.

      Woah 😂😂 that’s no easy feat. Possibly when I start the patreon we could do a Marvel Marathon? (10,000 subs)
