Quotes:
« Po: Maybe I should just quit and go back to making noodles.
»
« Oogway: Quit, don't quit… Noodles, don't noodles… You are too concerned about what was and what will be. There is a saying: yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.
»
« Mr. Ping: The secret ingredient is… nothing!
»
« Po: Huh?
»
« Mr. Ping: You heard me. Nothing! There is no secret ingredient.
»
« Po: Wait, wait… it's just plain old noodle soup? You don't add some kind of special sauce or something?
»
« Mr. Ping: Don't have to. To make something special you just have to believe it's special.
»
[Po looks at the scroll again, and sees his reflection in it]
« Po: There is no secret ingredient…
»
« Oogway: One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it.

Plots:
To everyone’s surprise, including his own, Po, an overweight, clumsy panda, is chosen as protector of the Valley of Peace. His suitability will soon be tested as the valley’s arch-enemy is on his way.
It’s the story about a lazy, irreverent slacker panda, named Po, who is the biggest fan of Kung Fu around…which doesn’t exactly come in handy while working every day in his family’s noodle shop. Unexpectedly chosen to fulfill an ancient prophecy, Po’s dreams become reality when he joins the world of Kung Fu and studies alongside his idols, the legendary Furious Five — Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey — under the leadership of their guru, Master Shifu. But before they know it, the vengeful and treacherous snow leopard Tai Lung is headed their way, and it’s up to Po to defend everyone from the oncoming threat. Can he turn his dreams of becoming a Kung Fu master into reality? Po puts his heart – and his girth – into the task, and the unlikely hero ultimately finds that his greatest weaknesses turn out to be his greatest strengths.
Surprisingly, of all the martial arts champions and kung fu masters, Po–a plump slacker panda and the most unathletic inhabitant in the serene Valley of Peace–is selected as the village’s defender. Now, as the community’s fabled and powerful Dragon Warrior, Po and his fierce team of kung-fu aces–Monkey, Tigress, Mantis, Viper, and Crane–must protect the ancient hometown from the vindictive snow-leopard, Tai Lung. However, can the Furious Five and the most improbable of all heroes, Po, fulfil both the prophecy and their destiny?
