Kung Fu Panda's Deep Meaning (w/ David Dang) | Guilty Pleasures Ep. 148

[@Jordan.Sev117]

Jack Black playing a teenage girl stuck in his body in Jumanji is some peak and amazing acting.

[@jmason1770]

Bethany😃

[@MichelleArielis]

Honestly everytime he switched characters, he friggen nailed it and its my favorite performance hes ever done. I will die on that hill

[@emmyemu33]

Also the second film failed to me because there wasn't enough jack black playing Bethany

[@skylab9]

"it's mario, luigi, and jack black" basically how everyone saw that movie lmao

[@Actuallyalizard]

It was Chris Pine, Luigi & Jack Black for me

[@pjjama9643]

My fav tidbit is that in Chinese, Shifu means master and Oogway means turtle. So their names are literally Master Master and Master Turtle.

[@saigraham5311]

OH MY GOD.... Po literally got LAUNCHED into being the dragon warrior by fire works... And fire works are what set him down the path because of the peacock... I'm screaming. I just put that together.

[@stephearley3141]

Awww ❤ Bowie on Zachs lap will never not be cute

[@aibakaika]

David’s love for the Kung Fu Pandaverse is so relatable aaaaaaaa❤ PLEASE BRING HIM BACK FOR 2 AND 3 (and 4 eventually) PLEASEEEEE

[@marieseaman7855]

HECK YEAH, KUNG FU PANDA! Now please do Shrek 2 later this year for its 20th year anniversary, literally my favorite movie. It is a GEM

[@otter.mayhem]

OMG yes Shrek 2!

[@marzipan94nugget]

The best out of the whole series imo

[@jacquelynchin5513]

As one of the interns from Kung Fu Panda 4, I’m so excited for this episode. I loved the original trilogy (esp the second one that was such an amazing sequel), and working on the fourth was wild and crazy and it’s a great fourth

[@kaylaharris867]

Just here to say Dreamworks films are so underrated and not talked about enough: Kung Fu Panda, Shrek, Road to El Dorado, Puss in Boots, etc. I think Dreamworks month should be a thing! ALSO if you do another Dreamwork movie, please PLEASE do Spirit, Stallion of the Cimarron. Hands down the best Dreamworks movie and the soundtrack is Hans Zimmer AND Bryan Adams. Matt Damon is the lead voice on the film. It's stunning and the story keeps you hooked.

[@virginiaraffaeli8332]

Spirit was my absolute FAVOURITE film as a child. The story and soundtrack is incredible. Rewatched it a couple of years ago, probably about 20 years after I saw it for the first time, and it completely held up for me 😊

[@solcarlosofficial]

The second film is my favorite! The villain is perfection. The story is stellar. And the animation is fantastic.

[@MersaiahBellydance]

The ultimate Kung Fu Panda bromance trio on this podcast: David = Oogway Garrick = Shifu Zack = Po

[@adriennecgomez]

Bowie was so excited for the toys!

[@ninaromero6505]

Lets keep going with the Dreamworls appreciation and watch How to Train Your Dragon 😭😭

[@katdavidson7322]

yes please!

[@aibakaika]

Jack Black is Mother lmao😭 idk why but it’s so accurate? he’s just the GOAT!

[@ReikaSensei]

Yeah, I'm part Chinese and I went into this expecting disappointment because of how hand-wavy Mulan was with Disney with some of the details and I was blown away because Kung-fu Panda is so legit. Like zither music and like the painting aesthetics and everything is just like...wow Dreamworks knows.

[@melmoelmochelsea]

Yesss! Cheaper By The Dozen was my favorite movie as a kid until 2008 when Kung Fu Panda came out & ive listed it as a favorite since!

[@emmadons3063]

the passion in this ep is infectious!! Garrick's description @13:30 made me think of a movie recommendation. a true GP, PLASE PLEASE watch Shaolin Soccer for the show

[@chokingnoises2384]

i NEED an episode on Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny!!!! being a comedy musical with Jack Black credited as a producer, writer, and lead role,,, idk how y’all haven’t done it yet 😩 every song is a banger. perhaps a dedicated Jack Black month in the near future? pls i beg

[@chokingnoises2384]

52% on Rotten Tomatoes but 100% in my heart. the cast is STACKED too!! Dave Grohl, Ronnie James Dio, Meat Loaf, and a hilarious Amy Poehler cameo

[@trollingmermaids]

Guilty Pleasures Podcast makes me look forward to Mondays

[@shadowcat5517]

Love that you guys were nerding over Kung Fu Panda! May be do Megamind next?

[@sruthisreeram]

Finally some much deserved appreciation for Kung Fu Panda! It’s my dad’s favorite movie series of all time. We are so hyped for the 4th!

[@saigraham5311]

This is my favorite episode of this podcast ever and I'm 5min in. I love this. I love Kung Fu Panda sooooo fucking much. Thank you. (The 4th movie was ass. We don't talk about that...) I love Kung fu panda 1-3 and I'm so glad you all got together and gave it the love and flowers it deserves. Skidoosh.

[@elainealive1554]

I just rewatched all the Kung Fu Panda movies and I was SO HAPPY to see y’all made an episode for it. Also, Jack Black is indeed the GOAT

[@alejandrarodas5081]

I first was listening to this on Spotify and when David busted out the toys I was like I have to watch this and watching it I had the one of those crazy throwbacks where you suddenly acces a deep deep childhood memory, and I remembered that I too, as an 8yr old, had a couple of those McD toys and loved so so much. unfortunately i guess i had to part ways with them when my family and I moved countries. So I totally forgot about them until this moment. And this was beautiful. Again the try guys universe making me cry.

[@vickyspongecos]

if we keep doing jack black, the jumanji sequels are also guilty pleasure

[@iPancake3]

As an animator and general animation nerd, it warms my heart whenever Garrick geeks out about animation ❤

[@PrimRooks]

There is even more supplementary lore for the Furious Five and even a few of the background kung fu masters in several animated specials that DreamWorks released as part of their DVD extras; they have been released as package features that are available on Netflix every once in a while, but I’d honestly say they’re worth your time if the lore intrigues you.

[@katherinemad]

Disappointed Bowie isn't mentioned anywhere in the description for this episode! He deserves title credit.... "Kung Fu Panda's Deep Meaning (w/ David Dang & Bowie)"

[@3degreeswest]

One of the best episodes. Love DD

[@briannalum9117]

I couldn't even make this up. Watched this (love you all + love Jack Black + Kung Fu Panda) and then was immediately suggested Tenacious D's cover of Baby One More Time FOR Kung Fu Panda 4. You spoke and Jack Black delivered!

[@for.the.tainted.sorrow]

I think I still have my Po toy somewhere! The sound effects brought back so many memories haha

[@sabrinaalamo3335]

Literally as they were obsessing over Jack Black, I saw he made a cover of Britney Spear’s Baby One More Time and I’m LIVING!!! He is the goofiest, most talented man alive 😂❤️

[@metteandersen7326]

Loving the JB praise- I have been facinated by his talent since High Fidelity- he brings so much soul, and play to what i does. And loved this episode with deep dive. I never thought to much about why, but I do also watch KFP all the time as a comfort movie

[@futuroid]

David dang is my jesus

[@chokingnoises2384]

zach is the Father, david is the Son, garrick is the Holy Spirit

[@Candies1Creations]

Kung Fu Panda is such a great franchise. Just saw the 4th one and it was great. We loved it.

[@vrodtrippin]

You inspired me to go back and watch this movie again for the umpteenth time. Jack Black is perfect as Po and we get his singing in the credits song, too, while rolling animation through the END. DreamWorks really elevated with this movie. Animation is ART. Just watch any Studio Ghibli movie and it cannot be denied. If you can watch Grave Of The Fireflies without ugly crying and not see it's beauty you must be cut off from your emotions. Zach, you have to watch 2 and 3. They're such a great continuation of Po's journey.

[@tryingtothrive157]

My fave line is Po going: I'm not freaking out. I'm freaking IN.

[@lndcruz721]

I watched the first kung fu panda years after it premiered and was so surprised on how good it is, LOVE to see it discussed here. also love the jack black appreciation, the man is very talented.

[@aibakaika]

KUNG FU PANDA LET’S GOOOOOO

[@ednasierra1083]

2nd Try family I’m so sorry I didn’t watch this on Monday, watching it today without distractions is perfect. Great episode.

[@solcarlosofficial]

I’m so shocked how we went from king fu panda and how to train your dragon to boss baby! Like even the style of animation nowadays is less complex. I’m So confused.

[@jmason1770]

Most actors love doing voice over work because they often get to play characters that are different from their usual roles. Also, they don't need to spend hours on makeup, hair, costumes, etc. They usual have a good time doing voice over.

[@sonne5367]

Once again begging you guys to do Lisa Frankenstein

[@redheadfaerie]

Bowie looks so big walking around but so tiny curled in zacks lap. Also Jack Black in Airborne. Hahaah

[@jacquelynchin5513]

There’s concept art from the first KFP from 2001 aka SEVEN YEARS PRIOR TO THE RELEASE. They did their mf RESEARCH and developed the shit outta the animation and story and how to represent the culture and action sequences

[@gracel9080]

I watched for 10 minutes getting ready before I noticed Bowie in Zach's lap 🤣🤣

[@Asi41055]

Same 😂

[@9oojuro]

trust... y'all are in for a treat when the credits of kung fu panda 4 roll

[@celinamendez1044]

Oh I’ve been WAITING for this one

[@Candies1Creations]

Oooh please do Madagascar. Those movies are hilarious.

[@stampflfamily8754]

When David asked if you’d watch a live action version I was reminded of a vivid dream I had ages ago that the Try Guys MADE a live action version Kung Fu Panda and Zach did an interview talking about how long it took bc they flew out real giant pandas to star in it 😭

[@AnshitaGupta]

You gotta do How to Train Your Dragon! Its just a perfect movie with the best soundtrack of all time!!

[@whereyoubean]

Love David ❤

[@elizawoods7819]

Do y'all think Avatar the Last Airbender had any effect on the success of this movie? Season two (arguably the best season) of ATLA ended 2 years before Kung Fu Panda, and season three came out a month after it's release. Also, please bring David back!

[@faithmccready7116]

This movie is a million percent a pleasure

[@jordenvilar3871]

Pls talk about Bottoms! 🫶🏼

[@kalebzerger301]

In Scott Pilgrims very first fight he punches someone so hard they explode!

[@Asi41055]

This franchise definitely took a lot of elements from classic kung fu Chinese cinema from the 70s/80s/90s. If you’re bored, watch “Drunken Master,” one of Jackie Chan’s earlier works. Very funny! A personal favorite of mine is Swordsman 2 starring Jet Li and Brigitte Lin - it’s has trans-themes in it (probably why I was so into it as a kid). Honestly, there’s so many good, classic kung fu movies 🤪

[@urfriendhannah]

This vid really made me wanna rewatch this movie lmao

[@breejeanne]

Loved this episode!!!

[@Rckitty]

I saw both Kung Fu Panda 1 & 2 in theaters and I will say especially for Kung Fu Panda 2 seeing it in theaters was amazing. I would put KFP2 up there with the amazing sequel category.

[@thewonkyquilterkimbourgeoi7908]

When will Dune 2 Guilty Pleasures episode be? Y’all were wild for first one. 🌺

[@gritT865]

I don’t know if the spider glitching was a retcon though I think it was always suppsed to be from another universe they just fully made it a bigger plot point moving toward

[@christinasites5423]

Zach - I am begging you, please watch 2 and 3!!! PLEASE!!!!

[@hw5441]

Kung fu panda 3 was my first date with my partner and we just went to see the 4th one together! Love these movies

[@pxrgatorysqxeen]

my little brother and I collected all of the McDonald’s toys ❤ i completely forgot that memory!!

[@kaitlynnewman4973]

Y’all are forgetting the best part about the LotR Magic cards- Post Malone owns the one ring card

[@rykeman916]

Pick of destiny for guilty pleasures

[@samanthamillie899]

im literally wacthing kung fu panda tonight cause of this lol

[@sargassum6190]

LABYRINTH, LABYRINTH, LABYRINTH!🎉🎉🎉 Bowie wants it! ❤❤

[@najbaamer]

Oh, man. I am dying to hear their reactions to the 4th movie.

[@sinhoney4793]

sure I definitely listened to this episode but I can tell you I only watched Bowie for the entire hour of this video

[@laurentuck7835]

Now I’m beggggging that you do a how to train your dragon episode 😭

[@naryxiong]

As a mother of 4 kids, my whole family loves the Kung Fu Panda movies!!!😅 Not only the movies but the TV series too! I cannot lie, to this day we quote Kung Fu Panda every day!!!😂 😅 Edited: #guiltypleasuresforsure We watched part 4 and definitely recommend everyone to watch.❤

[@justlistenizzy]

I love David!!

[@lexigibson7656]

begging for you to talk about Bottoms

[@jamieoliver379]

Guys please revisit Bollywood there are so many amazing movies. Here are some amazing suggestions: -3 idiots -PK -Kabhi kushi kabhi gham -Jawan -tarre Sameen par these are just a few Amazing movies that Bollywood has to offer

[@lisa-mariel4899]

Zach should give anime a try, especially for his love of "guy who can't fight learns how to" :D

[@mymelodyblues]

PLEASE review kung fu panda 2! Also since we’re talking about dreamworks y’all need to talk about prince of Egypt too!

[@kalebzerger301]

Zach what do you mean Scott Pilgrim wins every single fight in the movie basically?? He is good at fighting from the start as part of his character!?!

[@pumalover1000]

Please do Shark Tale!

[@MONERSC]

yall watching kubo and the two strings WHENNNNNNNNN

[@StretchyPlays]

Oh you want Jack Black singing the national anthem? It's already happened: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmrPZX-Dj8qBo5I Also the chopstick training scene was based off of another Jackie Chan scene that is also incredible: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rH_dqZZne5hjZ5I Edit: Post Malone bought The One Ring card.

[@tiffconliffe]

missed opportunity if yall don’t do a Jack Blackout month

[@EKlass21]

Can you guys do angry birds? They're both so funny, I'd love to hear about your favorite scenes.

[@faith-4059]

Real ones remember the MMO Kung Fu Panda World

[@carmenlittle9454]

JACK BLACK FAN CLUB TAP IN

[@Blackcanvasart]

One of the reasons why chinese love this movie is because its also a battle of Taoism (Oogway) and Confucianism (Shifu)

[@saigraham5311]

Hearing y'all talk about your ideas for the 4th and now having seen the 4th, y'all will be so disappointed. Your ideas are so much better and you're just spit balling. Honestly, don't watch the 4th. Keep it perfect in your heads, it's better that way. I wish I had.

[@clownsnoopy]

Pleassseeee do avatar the last airbender 😭💙💙💙

[@My0wnDrum]

Crazy to tell the "one ring" MTG story without mentioning it was Post Malone who bought it 😅

[@murraymanitos]

Zach you NEED to watch Avatar!!!!!!!

[@Channels208]

Why isn’t bowie on the thumbnail

[@JerseyQuinn]

Jack black is so hot & talented 😂😂😂 king fu panda is so funny

[@jabajabajabaa]

Hello could I request you guys watch Kung Fu Hustle (and maybe have some gummies before you watch it lol)

[@hobbitjj]

Oh my gosh! This has to be done with Eugene. The movie is TRIPPY af. 😂😂😂

[@timscharf423]

103:12 Post Malone bought it from the guy for $2 million.

[@sam_8493]

Please watch TAMMY AND THE TREX :(

[@ofthenearfuture]

The Netflix ATLA slander!

[@mayurmadiwalar8978]

PLEASE 👏 DO 👏 MORE 👏 ANIME👏

[@tayloroo]

let bowie speak tho

[@ryomahoffman6803]

This video is so annoying cuz y’all know nothing about this series lmao. There’s a few shows and shorts that are a part of the kung fu panda series. One of my favorite pieces of kung fu panda content is a short that came out after the first movie called “secrets of the furious five,” it’s a 2-D animated short film that deeply explores the back stories of all five of the furious five and how they were discovered by either Oogway or Shifu.
