"I'm not just any fat panda, I'm THE fat panda!"
At the Palais des Festivals in Cannes, France, the screening hall for "Kung Fu Panda" was packed to the rafters. By this point, the film had reached its climactic stage. As the audience heard Po's confident words and watched him subdue the great villain Tai Lung, they momentarily fell silent after having laughed repeatedly since the opening scenes.
The second day of the 58th Cannes Film Festival saw the much-anticipated "Kung Fu Panda" make its grand showing. Although audiences had seen its form in trailers, reporters, critics, and viewers alike were still struck with awe—it was an unprecedented CGI animated film!
