So, i have been a fan of Kung Fu Panda (this is specific for the first instalment) even before it came out. I recall laughing at the trailer with friends at the local net caffe. When the movie came out, i watched it...probably around 60 times. Before i share my take, I just wanna say, its...awesome AND underrated as hell. But, people see animation and scoff (who cares though, right :D). Ok, lets begin. Tai Lung is a textbook ISTP ( if you are not familiar with that, its basically one of the 16 personality types identified by MBTI). Long story short, these personality types have so called "functions", 8 of them (everyone has them, the order is just different) and to stay on point Tai Lung, has Fe (Feeling Extraverted, or in simple terms: HOW OTHERS FEEL). The thing about having Fe in the 4th position is that its really weak in that slot and used when depressed or under distress. Ok, with that out of the way: WE KNOW HE NEEDS HIS FATHERS APPROVAL, AND HE IS DESPERATE FOR IT, WHEN HE SAYS THE EPIC LINE: What I ever did, I did, to make you proud, tell me how proud you are Shifu, tell me, TELL ME!! <<< Poor guy is under so much stress and he uses his 4th ( How do others feel function) cuz HE DOESNT KNOW IF SHIFU IS ACTUALLY PROUD. The depth this movie has, people cannot even. Thank you.
