The Chameleon quotes from Kung Fu Panda 4 (2024)

View Quote Don't worry, I forgive you. For the impudence, and the backstabbing, and the blatant disrespect you've shown me. I forgive... but I never forget. You might say I have the memory... [Badger Crime Boss: Oh, don't say it!] of an elephant! [shapeshifts into Master Elephant] You think I've pushed you too far? Then you, my friend, can't begin to fathom... just how far I can push! [pushes the Bear Crime Boss down the stairs, then returns to her true form] I expect your tribute by dawn!

View Quote I too came from humble beginnings, and dreamed of becoming something more. I wanted respect and power, I wanted to be a master of kung fu. [Po: Say what?] I was driven from every training hall I went to. They would say I was too small, too lowly, and that kung fu was not my destiny. And so I chose a different path: [shapeshifts into various Masters] sorcery. I grew, I excelled, and I got everything I have ever dreamed of.

View Quote You see, Po, kung fu may be performed by the body, but its secrets are housed in the spirit. And now that I have access to the Spirit Realm... [Po: You're gonna steal Tai Lung's kung fu?] His and those of every master villain that came before me. And once I do, no one will dare underestimate me again.

View Quote Tai Lung. Big fan.

View Quote [after stealing Tai Lung's kung fu and throws him a cage before locking him up] Yes! I've got it! The Tai Lung Nerve Strike! The power, the possession! [Tai Lung: What have you done to me?] All of your kung fu is now mine! And the best part is: I'm just getting warmed up.

View Quote We've both risen to the highest of hights. It's a shame only one of us can come out on top. My combined powers of sorcery and kung fu make me unstoppable.

View Quote [to Po; as Tai Lung] I'm stronger than any opponent you've ever faced, because I AM every opponent you've ever faced!

View Quote Two against one? Well now, that doesn't seem fair. I'll have to even the odds. Master Cobra! Master Osprey! Master Scorpion! Master Wolf! General Kai! Lord Shen! [shapeshifts into a monstrous chimera of every kung fu master]

View Quote [as Po] I thought we were friends.

View Quote [fighting Zhen] You ungrateful little urchin! After all I've done for you, you betray me for the PANDA?!

View Quote Po: I believe you have something that belongs to me.
The Chameleon: Can't you even die right?
Po: Can't you even kill wrong? No. [chuckles] Wordplay didn't come together. Now, about that staff…
The Chameleon: [immediately flings the Staff of Wisdom back to Po, who looks confused] Take it. I already have everything I need from it anyway. I think this was destiny. A final face-off between formidable adversaries, alike in so many ways.
Po: If only I had a dumpling for every time a villain told me how much we had in common...
The Chameleon: It's true. We've both risen to the highest of heights. It's a shame only one of us can come out on top.
Po: It is a shame - for you!
The Chameleon: My combined powers of sorcery and kung fu make me unstoppable. And once I dispense with you, I'll expand my rule from Juniper City to--
Po: "... every other city and town and village, from here to the Valley of Peace and beyond." Yeah, I know!
The Chameleon: What? How did you know?
Po: I saw it in a vision. Cause I'm the Dragon Warrior.
[The Chameleon raises an eyebrow]
Po: For now, at least. But... I've realized that it's probably time I made a change. And so should you.
The Chameleon: I'm the Chameleon; I do nothing but change!
Po: Only on the outside. Real change happens from within. And if we're really as alike as you say, then maybe we can both let go of who we were and become something better than we already are? What do you say?
The Chameleon: I say... [suddenly shapeshifts into Lord Shen and kicks Po across the room]
Tai Lung: [watching from his cage] Well, I saw that coming.
Voice of Master Shifu: We’re very proud of you.
Voice 2: You tried it our way.
Voice 1: Now try it yours.
Po: I’m way ahead of you!

View Quote Tai Lung: I think it's time you sent us home, panda. [Po uses his Staff of Wisdom to open a portal to let all the kung fu masters back through; Tai Lung restrains Chameleon as she foolishly tries to get Zhen's attention]
The Chameleon: Zhen, do something!
Zhen: Third rule: No one's interested in your feelings. [Po looks over at Tai Lung and gives him a reassuring smile]
Tai Lung: See you on the other side, Dragon Warrior.
The Chameleon: [Last words] NOOOOOOOOO!!!
