La festività di Kung Fu Panda

First let me say that the old Rankin-Bass Christmas specials and 'A Charlie Brown Christmas' are perfection to me. I find most new Christmas specials to be lacking in comparison. I gave this a 9 of 10, so that should tell you something.

Beautifully animated, extremely likeable characters and a very family-friendly Christmas story has earned this show a permanent place in my holiday must-watch lineup.

And Po is so adorable I can't stand it.

The annual winter holiday feast is coming fast so Po, as the dragon warrior, must host it perfectly. Although he struggles a lot and does some typical mistakes (for him), everything goes according to plan, but something doesn't feel right. He omitted his dad, his family, and winter holidays are nothing without family. Right? Will he be able to please both parts and deliver a happy ending? What is there to say about this short movie, Kung Fu Panda at Christmas is all you want to see this time of the year, no doubt about that!

I love, love, love this. The Kung Fu Panda holiday special is the only really good holiday special I've ever seen. I thought that it was extremely funny and extremely heart-warming. As always, great plot, great moral, great characters. Another perk was the rabbit chef who kept trying to fight Po to the death in order to reclaim his honor. I can't help but feel that without that rabbit the story would have sagged a bit. It's a truly beautiful short about how Po needs to choose between spending the Winter holiday with his Dad, and whether or not to fulfill his duties as the Dragon Warrior. Really touching. It may not be perfect, but it is nonetheless spectacular.

This is the Christmas related special of the Kung Fu Panda franchise. It isn't necessarily Christmas as it takes place in China but it is a holiday that takes place and contains similar themes to Christmas, so that is what makes it for Christmas. It is about Po figuring more about his role as the Dragon Master for the annual feast at the Jade Palace. He wants to do it at the palace and be with his father. It does help establish Po as a character by balancing what he has to do as the dragon warrior and what he wants. It does show more of Chinese culture with this holiday being part of this Chinese based franchise. I would recommend it.

Since I was fat during my school years, this animation gave me motivation. Panda's short film. It was fun. But it wasn't that good.
