Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Furious Five (2008) as Po

View Quote [Po and Shifu are racing each other up the palace stairs]
Master Shifu: Are you ready?
Po: Ready's my middle name!
[Po speeds off ahead, and beats Shifu to their destination: the entrance doors to the Training Hall's courtyard. Po and Shifu put their backs to the door. Po pauses to catch his breath]
Po: So what have we got? A gang of terrible rhinos? Crocs? Rabid wolves? Let's do it!
Master Shifu: Be warned: This may be the toughest challenge you will ever have to face.
[Po chuckles in anticipation. Then he blasts into the courtyard with a flying kick]
Po: Get ready to feel the THUNDA... eh?
[Instead of rabid wolves, the courtyard is full of rambunctious little rabbit children. Shifu follows Po inside]
Master Shifu: Introduction to kung fu class.
[Po watches several children beating up a training dummy, which has been redesigned to look like Po. The real Po winces as one of the children delivers a flying kick to the dummy's head]
Po: Can I use the Wuxi Finger Hold on them?
Master Shifu: [pause] I'd try not to. Remember Po, each generation teaches the next one, and so the art of kung fu lives on; in you, and now in these... [A rabbit flies past them and crashes off-screen] uh... delightful children. [Shifu speeds outside]
Po: What?
Master Shifu: Good luck. [slams the doors shut, trapping Po inside]
[Not expecting this challenge at all, Po rushes to the door and sees Shifu walking away through a crack]
Po: Wait a second! Master Shifu! Master Shi- come on! Auugh. [gulps and slowly approaches the students] Okay, if you'll just take a seat... er, hello? [The rabbits continue to play-fight] Hey, settle down now... [no response] Okay, er...

Po: Thank you.
Rabbit 1: Are we gonna learn the cool kung fu moves?
Po: Yes. [The students cheer.]
Rabbit 1: Now we're really gonna start kicking butt!
Po: Hey, hey, hold on. Kicking butt is just a small part of kung fu. It's awesome, but it's small.
Rabbit Children: Huh?
Po: Kung fu means "Excellence of Self"; being the best you can be. That's what it's about, bunnies!
[A shy young rabbit walks up and taps Po on the leg.]
Rabbit 2: I wanna learn "Tigress Style"...
Rabbit 1: [groans] Aren't we going to fight?
Rabbit 3: Yeah, like the Furious Five!
Po: The Furious Five, huh? They are cool, aren't they? But it wasn't fighting that made them amazing. No. They each had to learn the secrets of kung fu before they became excellent.
Rabbit 1: Secrets? What secrets?
Po: Oh, I shouldn't really say. That's why it's a secret. It's top secret.
Rabbit Children: Pleeeeaaase tell us. Tell us, pleeeeeeaaaaase...
Po: Aww... Okay. but don't tell anyone I told you, because I'll deny it- I'll be like, "What? I didn't tell them anything." Alright...
View Quote [On the outside within the Training Hall's courtyard are the sounds of Po and Master Shifu bickering.]
Master Shifu: What did you say? Don't act so arrogant! You pickin' a fight with me?!
Po: Arrogant!? I've been working here longer than you have! And then you come in acting all bossy!
[They glare and growl at each other, even as they leave the main hall.]
Master Shifu: [last lines] I'd beat you to a pulp!
Po: [last lines] I'm the one who'd beat you to a pulp!
