    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The animators took a six-hour kung fu class to get an idea of the movie's action.
    • Goofs
      (at around 3 mins) When Po wakes up in the beginning of the movie, a throwing star falls down and lands on the floor. Later, when he tries to throw it back up on the wall, the original throwing star is still in the wall.
    • Quotes
      • Po: Maybe I should just quit and go back to making noodles.
      • Oogway: Quit, don't quit... Noodles, don't noodles... You are too concerned about what was and what will be. There is a saying: yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.
    • Crazy credits
      The opening and closing credits are carried out in stylized 2D animation, which resembles Chinese shadow puppetry.
    • Alternate versions
      While originally only a 2D release during its 2008 theatrical run, Dreamworks Animation later produced a 3D version. This version was released on Blu-ray in 2011 to coincide with the home video release of Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011).
