"Kung Fu Panda 2" (2011) Pre-release

Hello martial-artist-panda-loving readers!

With Kung Fu Panda 2 expected for release soon in the UK (10th June, 2011), despite seeing its release tomorrow at my local cinema, I think it's an ideal time to get a quick look at the flick and the events that took place in the first flick, perhaps my most loved non-Pixar CGI flick alongside Surf's Up (2006).

Story of Kung Fu Panda so far...

Kung Fu Panda (2008)

A lazy, irreverent slacker panda, Po, must somehow become a Kung Fu Master in order to save the Valley of Peace from a villainous snow leopard, Tai Lung. Set in the legendary world of ancient China, this is the story of Po, our unlikely hero, who enters the rigid world of Kung Fu and turning it upside down. Po ultimately becomes a Kung Fu hero by learning that if he believes in himself, he can do anything.

Hope this keeps us all up to speed!
