[edit] Quotes
- Shen: [To his gorilla army] Bring it down!
- Shen: Oh, you want to know so badly. You think knowing will heal you, eh? Fill some... crater in your soul? Well, here's your answer: Your parents didn't love you. But here... let me heal you.
- [He then blasts Po with his cannon]
- Po's Father: [Sensing Po] My son is alive!
- Po: My fist hungers for justice!
- [His stomach belches and the Furious Five stare at him]
- Po: [Embarrassed] That was my... fist.
- Po: [About the Massacre of the Pandas] You-- you were there.
- Shen: Yes. Yes, I was.
- [He then escapes]
- Shen: Nothing stands in my way.
- Shen: [While departing Gongmen City] Such sad, sad faces. But now is a time only for joy. You are going to be a part of something beautiful.
- [Tigress growls]
- Shen: Once we reach the harbor, in front of all the world, you and your precious Kung Fu will die, and China will know to bow before me. Set sail!
- Soothsayer: Your story may not have such a happy beginning, but that doesn't make you who you are. It is the rest of your story, who you choose to be. So who are you, Panda?
- [Realizing the truth in her words, Po remembers all the happy times he's had with his loved ones. He slowly stands up.]
- Po: I am Po. And I'm gonna need a hat.
- Shifu: Once, I realized the problem was not you, but within me. I found inner peace and was able to harness the flow of the universe.
- Shifu: Anything is possible when you have inner peace.
- Shifu: This could be the end of Kung Fu.
- Po: But I just got Kung Fu!
- Shifu: And now, you must save it!
- Po: Ah. My old enemy: Stairs.
- Shen: [Triumphantly] You were wrong, Soothsayer! [Wields sword] We sail to victory tonight. Your magic panda is clearly a fool!
- Soothsayer: Are you certain it is the panda that is a fool?! You just destroyed your ancestral home, Shen!
- Shen: A trivial sacrifice... when all of China is my reward. [Pokes the burning tip to a map of China, which bursts into a spreading flame]
- Soothsayer: Then will you finally be satisfied? Will the subjugation of the whole world finally make you feel better?
- Shen: [Sneers] It's a start. I was also thinking of converting the basement into a dungeon.
- Soothsayer: [Pause] The cup you choose to fill has no bottom. It is time to stop this madness.
- Shen: And why on Earth would I do that?
- Soothsayer: So your parents can rest in peace.
- Shen: [Bitterly] My parents... hated me. Do you understand? They-- they wronged me. And... I will make it right.
- Soothsayer: They loved you. They loved you so much that having to send you away killed them.
- Shen: [Pause] The dead exist in the past. And I must attend to the future. [To his gorilla guard] Set the Soothsayer free. She is of no use to me.
- Soothsayer: [Sadly] Goodbye, Shen. I wish you happiness.
- Shen: Happiness... must be taken. And I will take mine.
- Shen: [To Po, then to his wolf army] As you wish. Let's finish this.
- Shen: [Trying to catch his breath] H-- how did you... how did you do it?
- [Po shrugs]
- Po: You know, you just gotta keep your elbows up and keep the shoulders loose--
- Shen: Not that. How did you find peace? I took away your parents. Everything! I I-- I scarred you for life!
- Po: See that's the thing, Shen. Scars heal.
- Shen: No, they don't. Wounds heal.
- Po: Oh yeah. What do scars do? They fade, I guess?
- Shen: I don't care what scars do.
- Po: You should, Shen. You gotta let go of that stuff from the past 'cause it just doesn't matter! The only thing that matters is what you choose to be now.
- [Shen's eyes widen]
- Shen: You're right. Then I choose THIS!
- [He pulls out blades from his robes and starts attacking Po with them]
- [On the boat to Gongmen City]
- Tigress: Po, why are you really out here?
- Po: I just found out that my dad... isn't my dad.
- Tigress: Your dad? The goose?
- [Po nods]
- Tigress: That must have been quite a shock.
- Shen: My father's throne. He used to let me play here at his side, promising one day, this throne would be mine.
- [He then throws his dad's throne out the window]
- Shen: [To the Soothsayer when she eyes his robes] Don't even think about it!
- Shifu: [To Po and the Furious Five] Are you familiar with the master of Gongmen City?
- Po: Master Thundering Rhino?
- Shifu: Yes.
- Po: Son of Legendary Flying Rhino?
- Shifu: Yes.
- Po: And the slayer of the ten thousand serpents in the Valley of Woe?
- Shifu: ....is dead.
- [Po and the Five gasp]
- Crane: That's impossible!
- Tigress: Rhino's horn defense is impervious to any technique!
- Shifu: It was no technique! Lord Shen has created a weapon! One that breathes fire and spits metal!
- Shen: [To Boss Wolf] Search the farthest villages! Find more metal! China will be mine!
- Shen: Ah, there you are, Soothsayer. It seems your fortune-telling skills are not as good as you thought.
- Soothsayer: We shall see, Shen.
- Thundering Rhino: What do you want, Shen?
- Shen: What is rightfully mine... Gongmen City!
- Thundering Rhino: Gongmen City is under the stewardship of the Master's Council and we will protect it, even from you.
- Shen: I am so glad you feel that way! Otherwise, I'd have dragged that here for nothing!
- Master Ox: What's in the box, Shen?
- Shen: You want to see? It's a gift. Yeah it's your parting gift, in that it'll part you; part of you here, part of you there, and part of you way over there staining the wall!
- Shen: [Referring to Master Po] How many times do I have to kill the same stinking panda?!
- Shifu: Po, the day you were chosen as dragon warrior...was the worst day of my life. By far, nothing else came close. It was the worst, most painful, mind destroying horrible moment...
- Po: Okay.
- Shifu:...I have ever experienced.
- [He shudders at the thought.]
