MysteryMovieMogul Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 It's weird that they're putting Awkwafina front and center and not Ke Huy Quan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Awkwafina will be the new Dragon Warrior according to the summary: “ After three death-defying adventures defeating world-class villains with his unmatched courage and mad martial arts skills, Po, the Dragon Warrior (Golden Globe nominee Jack Black), is called upon by destiny to … give it a rest already. More specifically, he’s tapped to become the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace. That poses a couple of obvious problems. First, Po knows as much about spiritual leadership as he does about the paleo diet, and second, he needs to quickly find and train a new Dragon Warrior before he can assume his new lofty position. Even worse, there’s been a recent sighting of a wicked, powerful sorceress, Chameleon (Oscar® winner Viola Davis), a tiny lizard who can shapeshift into any creature, large or small. And Chameleon has her greedy, beady little eyes on Po’s Staff of Wisdom, which would give her the power to re-summon all the master villains whom Po has vanquished to the spirit realm. So, Po’s going to need some help. He finds it (kinda?) in the form of crafty, quick-witted thief Zhen (Golden Globe winner Awkwafina), a corsac fox who really gets under Po’s fur but whose skills will prove invaluable. In their quest to protect the Valley of Peace from Chameleon’s reptilian claws, this comedic odd-couple duo will have to work together. In the process, Po will discover that heroes can be found in the most unexpected places. The film features the voice talent of returning stars Academy Award® winner Dustin Hoffman as Kung Fu master, Shifu; James Hong (Everything Everywhere All at Once) as Po’s adoptive father, Mr. Ping; Academy Award® nominee Bryan Cranston as Po’s birth father, Li, and Emmy Award nominee Ian McShane as Tai Lung, Shifu’s former student and arch-nemesis. Oscar® winner Ke Huy Quan (Everything Everywhere All at Once) joins the ensemble as a new character, Han, the leader of the Den of Thieves.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morieris Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I hope there's another instance of sneaking in a melody from a popular song (Kai's theme in 3 had a riff that sounded very similar to Imagine Dragons' I'm So Sorry). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YM! Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 (edited) It'll be like Mario and Barbie where they bitch about twice and then use it to prop it up against Disney for the most minuscule amount of wokeness (idk maybe a gay couple holding hands in the background in a scene in IO2).

Morieris Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 The first one has been one of my favorite movies - either #2 or #1 - since it came out. I'm more annoyed that they seem to have scrapped the 6 movie arc, but considering the first came out in 2008 and it's now 2023, maybe that's for the best - than having a pass the torch movie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to how Zhen adds to the story and think they can create a great arc for her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YM! Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 The trailer was a bit underwhelming for me unfortunately - think the unfinished leaked trailers were better composed. There's sort of cheap feeling but tbh apart from BG/Puss 2, it has been feeling like DWA Glendale has been making small cuts to the corner as it even seems like they're trying to be creative with some shots and sequences but some of the animation looks plasticky. Chameleon’s transformations are cool though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
