The trailer for the sequel to Kung Fu Panda is starting to make its rounds and it tells us absolutely nothing about the plot.
Nonetheless, I am sure that the Jennifer Yuh-directed animated feature will be just as good, if not better than The Karate Kid (probably better). I know, I know — we gave the Jaden Smith vehicle a hard time (if he whipped his hair back and forth in the movie, I would’ve TOTALLY loved it) — mostly because of the use of the word karate vs. kung fu AND some of us who absolutely adore the original felt violated.
Maybe I am just biased because they used the term “kung fu” in an accurate context and I have an affinity for computer animated animals doing martial arts — but there’s only so much Jack Black that I can take.
