Trivia

WILHELM SCREAM: When Tai Lung is escaping prison and is hitting the Rhino guards with a mace. He flings a guard into the air and when he kicks the guard through the door, just before he lands, you hear it.

The name of the prison is "Chor Ghom Prison". "Chor Ghom" is Cantonese for "go to prison", or to literally "sit in prison."

The characters of KG Shaw and JR Shaw are a reference to The Shaw Brothers Creative Group, who created many 1970's kung fu movies. Tai Lung is named after Shaw star Lung Ti.

When Po tries to use the bamboo to vault into the ceremony he makes a big crack in the wall - however this disappears right away as it is never to be seen again.

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 you see the original throwing star is still in the wall.

Po gets all dirty when when he finally lands in the arena, but after he is selected as the Dragon Warrior, he is clean again.

A Note Regarding Spoilers

The following FAQ entries may contain spoilers. Only the biggest ones (if any) will be covered with spoiler tags. Spoiler tags have been used sparingly in order to make the page more readable.

What kind of kung fu do the characters use?

Is there a scene after the credits?

Yes. Unlike most films that try to go for just one more cheap laugh, the scene after the credits is touching and sweet. It's worth staying for. It features Po and Shifu eating by the peach tree, where the peach tree seed has begun to grow.
