I love the "I'm not hungry" line so much because it's a double metaphor, calling back to the time that we established that Po eats when he is upset, stating "I'm not upset" as well as shifu saying "when you have been trained, you may eat", with Po saying "I'm not done training".

[@ethanwilson9406]

I never thought of the "I'm not done training" angle before, neat.

[@serpentmaster1323]

I think of the second double meaning in less “I’m Not done training” and more “Eating is no longer the reason Im doing all these drills” because every drill was motivated by getting closer to food. Mainly because I feel “Im not done training” in this context makes no sense. No one who practices any art is ever “done” training, and every character in this movie knows that. The only reasonable substitution for done in this context is ‘strong enough to face ti lung’. And we know that po definitely doesn’t feel that way.

[@erickremers3986]

I see it as such by combining the context with their verbal showdown before they start fighting for the dumpling. The callback "When you have been trained, you may eat." combined with "You are free to eat" "AM I?!" "ARE YOU?!" flows into the "I'm not hungry" line as "I'm not done training" when you hear the meaning of what Shifu and Po are actually saying in that showdown, which in this context is "You have been trained" "HAVE I?!" "HAVE YOU?!" or maybe variable as "You are ready" "AM I?!" "ARE YOU?!" but the essence of the message remains regardless

[@lacko623]

@@serpentmaster1323 Yeah, I could see it more along those lines. Basically, Shifu started training Po with the need for food as a motivator, that that's the only way he can do Kung Fu.

[@ninaaaaishere]

What I love about this movie in particular is that it has a massive lesson to parents. You can try and make your child accomodate your aspirations, and desires. And get a Tai Lung. A world of regret for yourself and no sense of self like with Tai Lung (who, when looking at the scroll said "It's nothing!"). Or, you can accommodate for your child. Because a peach tree will remain a peach tree and will only give you peaches. A good teacher changes his teachings for his students. Doesn't force his students to understand his teachings. You can have a Po, someone that understands himself and because you believed in your child's potential.

Yeah,that also why it is one of my favorite movies together with puss and boots.Because they both have interasting villains,interasting plots and interasting stories

[@ayoutubewatcher2849]

Yeah, it definitely has the darkest plot of the three movies, but still keeping some of that charming KFP goof.

[@no-yq1rh]

Me to love it

[@doomray2468]

the whole trilogy is worth a watch honestly

[@sertaki]

The freeze framing of punches is definitely a more modern fighting movie thing. Tradilional Kung Fu movies tend to be very rapid-fire with the punches and kicks and weapon strikes. I'd say The Matrix is to blame, and maybe 300.

[@KingVasuki]

This movie can definitely do fast action really well. The freeze framing feels "earned".

[@johnhenkel1828]

Yes, please do the whole series. Just like in How to Train Your Dragon, each movie is fantastic.

[@JosephReviewsFilm]

I’ll admit the second one has some tear jerker moments.

[@KS-xk2so]

and another bad ass villain. KFP 1 and 2 might have the best back to back set of villains in any movie I've ever seen.

[@JosephReviewsFilm]

@@KS-xk2so yes the villain was awsome, and in my opinion was more personal for Poe.

[@thoroakenshield7283]

Nat, glad you enjoyed Kung Fu Panda. When my daughter was young, this was one of our favorite movies to watch together. She used to giggle like crazy over it. Thank you.

[@majorpaiyne2124]

One of the greatest animated films ever to react to has to be Happy Feet. There is tons of social commentary surrounding the parallels of real life and the life in that movie. I highly recommend a watch.

“All over the place” is a good theme for a reaction channel in my opinion.

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

Oogway: There is just news, there is no good or bad Shifu: DreamWorks won't make a MegaMind 2 Oogway: ....that is bad news And yes, Shifu is a red panda. Fun fact, despite the fact they're called a panda, they're not a panda (they're only called that because they eat bamboo). Despite looking like a raccoon, they're not a raccoon. And despite acting like cats, they're not cats either. They are their own thing, and it's a shame they're endangered

[@zephilandevol]

Thank you for the red panda fact, kim jong-un

[@samuelbutton7185]

I come from the future, with a warning to the past... Megamind 2 must never come to be.

[@Itstwofourteen]

"My channel is all over the place!" Hey man, variety is the spice of life, lol 😅

[@ianrosenbalm6555]

Seconding the "all over the place" vibe. It's nice to stretch one's appreciation of different genres in almost any art form. You learn things you never expect to know and discover things you never would otherwise. 😊

[@GummiAnd]

I love the first movie.. but the second movie... a masterpiece. One of my all time favorite hero/villain parallel stories.

[@rikky6ixx]

I remember seeing this in the theater with one of my best friends and we were both completely blown away. He literally told me “this is the best action movie… ever” 😅

[@tranquilk5912]

Ahh yes... Everyone has to know the ultimate nemesis of Po is "Stairs"

[@Spamhard]

This is genuinely still one of my fave films about self-acceptance. Po's depression over who he is at the start of the movie, and then slowly learning to value himself and others accepting him on his own terms, rather than him having to become something else, is such a good story to have. Still makes me cry constantly.

[@idk--coffee]

The Kung fu panda trilogy is my favorite animated movies and I love that you're reacting to it

[@nathanwilkins6107]

I love how while this movie does punch in some unexpected comedy, it never does the thing where it undercuts emotional moments with a joke that destroys the impact of the moment.

[@rahadulislam8858]

[@kalitanikella6113]

Ohhhh yes!

[@SoloJona]

Yes it is, please do

[@ElliotNesterman]

_Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon_ (2000) may be the best film with which to introduce yourself to kung fu movies. Directed by Ang Lee, it won multiple awards from many organizations, notably four Oscars-Foreign Language, Art Direction, Cinematography, and Original Score-and four BAFTAs-Foreign Language, Costume Design, Music, and Best Director. It's a remarkably beautiful film filled with suspenseful action.

[@andrewcrowder4958]

You have, I think, four qualities that make your reactions really helpful to me in re-interpreting things I have seen: your intense intelligence, your deep perceptiveness, your wild emotions and openness, and your industry knowledge. And you have a really good editor.

[@FestArc]

I would recommend some of the early 2D animated Dreamworks films like "The Road To Eldorado" and "The Prince of Egypt" If you haven't seen those. Both are very good and criminally underrated in my opinion.

[@RonG_NYC]

This was great to see. Please do "Rush Hour". I think you'll love it.

[@earlmangwich1830]

Natalie, I love your reactions and prescience! You’d mentioned never having seen a Kung Fu movie. There are many more traditional classics with Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and many more, but some of the more artistic and gorgeously wire-choreographed ones that I remember are Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Hero (2002). You’ve mentioned accompanying music in your reviews, and these two films have striking scores.

[@randomstuff2438]

I can’t wait for the 2nd film, it is definitely the best and darker in my opinion

[@Asher1347]

Definitely watch the trilogy. They're just as good. Also, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and Kung Fu Hustle are great Kung Fu movies I recommend. In that order.

[@stefsmurf]

Please, PLEASE, be responsible. If you're going to recommend Kung Fu Hustle, make sure that they know to watch the Cantonese or Mandarin version, not the English dubbed one. So many jokes and inflections are cut out that the movie is almost non-sensical at certain points.

[@thatHARVguy]

26:14 I volunteered for a music festival for 20 years, working a ton of hours in the hot sun leading teams to build tents, fences and stages. No matter how acclimated and fit I get from the work, the hills still kill me.

[@orionng195]

What's even funnier is that most of the names are just the thing itself. Master Shifu is just "Master Master", and Chor Gom Prison is just "Prison Prison". I find it really absurd and funny. Oogway is turtle, of course.

[@Digestedframe2]

Into the Spider-verse is amazing, maybe you will look into that in the future.
