Lord Shen is un-ironically the greatest villain in all of DreamWorks movies. None of the others come close with how they effect both the world and the characters on a physical and emotional level. He was cunning, clever, arrogant and insatiably vengeful. He meant more to the main character than any other villain in the Dreamwork lineup. Everything he does makes sense and has thought put into it, all of his flaws have a great amount of setup and reasoning behind them. I will argue till the end of days that Shen takes the top spot by an insanely wide margin and easily can claim a spot as one of the greatest villains in animation.

@thejosesarangoproject5700

4 жыл бұрын

I definitely agree. The two best villains I can think of from Dreamworks are Tai Lung and Shen just because of how they are built up and developed throughout the film. Shen specifically is animated beautifully, especially how he perks up his feathers during battle to disguise his next attacks and distracts his opponents. They made a peacock intimidating not through brute strength, like Tai Lung, but with a wicked intelligence and apathy for those he needs to kill to reach his goals. He's able to go as far as commit genocide to secure his life, only to give birth to his greatest adversary. He is the yang to Po's ying, and is the best villain by far, with Tai Lung a close second.

Black is a color that is associated with evil and sadness. Red is associated with fire, which is what Shen’s weapons use to wreak their havoc.

Too bad they don't wanna expose their kids with dark cartoons like this.

No matter how hard you went through, achieving inner peace is always possible if you embrace the hardships and let it flow. The past cant be changed. Dont hold deep grudges, or inner peace would be impossible. Shen didnt learn this, so he was shocked as to how Po managed to achieve it despite being scarred for life of losing his family throughout his life (before kfp 3). Man, i wish if they make another movie, they would make another that could par the first and second movie. The third movie seemed to lack something and it felt less weight than the first two films.

Shen's connection to Po is personal. Shen committed genocide on Po's village, Shen is the reason his mother was forced to orphan her son so he wouldn't die. Shen had the most impact on Po's life. It's why Po has PTSD. Had Shen done nothing. Po would grow up in his village with his biological parents. He might not have become the Dragon Warrior.

I love that they also thought ahead in making sure NO other pandas appeared in the first movie apart from Po himself. Indirectly establishing the rarity of pandas in the audience's subconscious. Brilliant foreshadowing.

Shen is a good villain and it was even better because they used a peacock which normally symbolizes immortality and other good things. They made a magestic and beautiful creature evil and cold. How I see peacocks are normally kind creatures but three made shen completely different from that image of peacocks. Stunning

The soothsayer foretold that "If Shen continues down his path he would be defeated by a warrior of black and white". Aside from how Po defeats him, this also applies to Shen. After his flagship is destroyed he is white and black from the soot and dust, and he fights as a warrior and not a tactician or a lord. He is the one who brings himself down. God I love this movie

I am amazed at how well made Shen is. The character design in itself is absolutely perfect. It's baffling that they could turn a peacock, which is usually symbolism for beauty and peace into a bitter and cold force. It's absolutely remarkable how much of a threat Shen is as a character. Not by making him extremely strong, but by making him too cunning for his own good. He knows that he isn't in ths right, but he's gone too far to stop. The way he messes with Poe's mind throughout the entire movie is brilliant.

Even his evilness had a subtle purity in them. Faces death in the eye and accepts his wrongdoings. A true genius- far ahead of his time. A main who carried his pain with calm ruthlessness and swagger. Hands down the most complicated villain in the history of animation!

I think what made Kai a weak villain for me is that the moral of his story was essentially the same as Shen’s: the more you take, the less you have. Both were ravenous warlords trying to fill some void with power. What made Tai Lung different was that he wasn’t motivated by power per se, but instead was driven by a noble ambition (become the greatest Kung fu practitioner) that became poisoned by vengefulness. And Shen of course was unique because he was the first power/destruction driven villain in the series.

Tai Lung was motivated by hard work and dedication. He was destroyed by the belief that hard work can do anything, which is not in and of itself a bad philosophy but without ambition being tempered and understanding that fine line it can lead to a crisis of self when you meet a brick wall. Tai Lung couldn't accept his loss and to a fair extent, it was his father ambition and philosophy that failed him. In Shen the story is reversed. Shen fails his parents with a new philosophy of aggression and his own ambition in his creation, canons, and his willingness to invest in its future at any means possible. Not realizing that on that day he a had a choice between family and creation. Tail Lung made no new path in himself. He trusted his family. Shen did and lost his family trust. In the first one po is tempted by his father pessimism to be a simple noodle merchant but by his own luck-and actions...unintended as they were- he becomes the dragon warrior. With shen story, po finds himself drifting from his family in search of identity much like shen did. For different reasons, but at the core the divergence is there. Both of these characters are also dealing with a loss of family. One taken, one ejected from. My point is. Both of these stories had interconnecting themes and trials. I don't remember the third one at all because at his core Kai was just a bad guy martial artists but for some reason the theme of families were continued-with po village- also they ruined the mysticism of it all by literally turning kung fu into shiny green powers. In 2 inner peace was an exalted state that could be argued just as much within the user as in usage of soul jucii or whatever.

I love this peacock as much as he's scary, more than a leopard and a bull.

13:25 The way Shen cuts every rope when fighting Po is a very simple yet perfect allegory: even then he could still stop, atone for his crimes and maybe one day find peace. Instead he holds on to his rage, destroying whatever chance of redemption he could have and when faced with doom (the cannon falling on him) he accepts it, for he sees no other outcome that will end his suffering.

It always drags out into something that feels unattainable, full of longing for something but unsure on how to get it and what to do. - exactly like the mindset that Shen has throughout the movie

Lord Shen is honestly a perfect villain, and possibly one of the best villains of all time. He’s so underrated

The Soothsayer implied that Shen would be defeated by a warrior of black and white. But get this: Shen is a white peacock. And during that final fight against Po Shen was covered in black burnt marks all over is feathers and ropes. So basically Shen was his own enemy all along. Po did not even touch Shen in that final fight. All he did was dodge. Shen was responsible for that cannon dropping on him and killing him. So technically Shen was his own downfall. As Master Oogway said: "One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it." And that is exactly what Shen did.

Shen is absolutely gorgeous, both in design and character. His final moments, he's not even trying to kill po, he's basically trying to destroy everything around him while aiming mainly at po. He's gone so far down the deep end in that single moment that the only way for him to stop is to literally die right there and now.

Your mom too

Strangely enough my favorite moment of scoring in the whole franchise is 13:25, because it kind of represents everything that Shen is at his core - desperate, unhinged, small-hearted, and tragic. This little 1 minute skirmish between Po and Shen represents so much and I love it

It's my favorite too. Shen's battle theme I would say the song screams how desperate and relentless Shen was in his final moments against Po

Someone mentioned in a comment in another video perhaps, that each trilogy was of the main 3s past. Shifus past comes to haunt him in the first, Po's past in the second, and Oogways in the third. It's so cool they did that

Lord Shen is without a doubt the best villain in the entire Kung Fu Panda series. Tai Lung was a great villain, too, but he's just kinda forgotten about after the first movie, and is more of a power hungry villain who wants revenge on the people who, in his eyes, took away the destiny that was promised to him. Lord Shen, however, is not only powerful and cunning, bit also a threat to all of Kung Fu and China. He isn't a single threat, as he has an entity army at his side. Yes, he's power hungry, but he's stronger in terms of numbers and his main weapon. He turned what was originally supposed to be used for joy and happiness into a lethal weapon that killed even Master Rhino. I'm sure it would have been enough to kill even Tai Lung. But most importantly was his impact on the protagonist, Po. The second Shen learned of a threat to him, he retaliated by commiting mass genocide on all Pandas. This introduction to Po's past and original family feels organic because it answers the question people had in the first movie: where are the other pandas? (This was even hinted at in the first movie when Po says to Ping, "Sometimes I can't even believe you're my dad.") Throughout Kung Fu Panda 2, Shen uses Po's trauma against him. Po gets flashbacks of Shen's doings at the sight of the mark on his feathers. He had to face his traumas and find inner peace within his pain in order to defeat Shen. Shen even impacts the tribe of pandas, and especially Po's biological father, in the third movie, as there is an entire scene with Po's father talking to Po about his mother (it even includes the scene where she sacrifices herself for Po's survival. Kung Fu Panda 2 (and the series as a whole) is amazing, and anyone who has seen it as a kid should rewatch it so they can discover the masterpiece that it truly is.

Kung Fu Panda 2 is my favourite movie of the trilogy, and Shen is a big reason why. Tai Lung is a good villain because he's personal to Shifu. Shen is a great villain because he's personal to Po. But Kai is just an okay villain, because he's personal to Oogway, who is already dead.

Sorry for the late reply I was at school

I was honestly terrified of this guy as a child when I was 8 years old.

I read a very sad fact were apparently after massacring half the panda population he felt bad but knew that what he already done can not be taken back and had no other choice but to go down the path he made for himself the path of villainy

Shen is quite possibly my favourite villain just based upon how he strikes his opponents with negative emotions such as fear before enhancing his own strength with rage. It’s like a better version of Tai Lung.

I love how the soundtrack concentrates between lord shen's attitude and past because he definitely wants us to know the personality, regret and evil of this character. I literally love dreamworks movies.

he does probably dislike/regret the actions he took but he probably believes the end result will make all he has done worth it. Soothsayer mentions this wont be the case which Shen just doesn't respond to.

Shen was honestly the first and one of the only cinematic villains to truly scare me. His malicious nature and terrifying presence struck true fear into my 5-year-old heart. Going back to rewatch this masterpiece a few years ago was a fucking blast, because this is truly one of the best animated villains ever created. (Tai Lung and Kai are great too but I just have more respect for Shen)

Which joker!?

I love the transition between "Story of Peacock" and "Shen Frees Soothsayer". Keeping the original would surely break the mood.
