Kung Fu Panda trailer

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present."

You must watch it.  It's awesome!  I was not so fond of the big fat panda figure when the promo of the movie was all over the places.  I thought how could a movie be interesting when the characters were so not-cute.  I was wrong.  Tung Tung seemed very interested in the characters (thanks to the ads all over) so I took her to watch the dubbed version on Saturday.  I took me by surprise!  It was indeed a very good and indeed meaningful movie.  I probably will watch the English version too before DVDs come out.  It's really interesting.  The kung fu scenes were amazing!  Eason was the voice of Po the panda.  He was good!  Tung Tung was laughing all the time with the other kids in the theatre from the beginning till the end.  A really good animation.  I have started to think Po is indeed cute....
