Kung Fu Panda

Ride or Die Struggles in semis, clutch in finals
2008 · Animation, Family, Comedy, Action · Mark Osborne, John Stevenson

Kung Fu Panda barely survives to the final — but when it gets there, its fans deliver. At 48% overall, the record hides the real story. The DreamWorks film that had no business being as good as it is, and that underdog reputation follows it into every bracket. Voters who expected nothing and got genuine craft become its most reliable advocates.

Synopsis

Chosen by prophecy but doubted by all, Po is an unlikely Dragon Warrior—a clumsy panda thrust into the world of kung fu as a deadly enemy threatens the Valley of Peace. Guided by Master Shifu and the Furious Five, Po must embrace who he is to unlock the power that no scroll can teach.

Where it thrives

Something happens between the semis and the final. At 42%, Kung Fu Panda looks beatable. At 60% in the final, it suddenly isn't. The later rounds concentrate the audience that cares most.

At 48%, the matchup with Madagascar is the tightest in Kung Fu Panda's record — close enough to go either way. The Shining is the film Kung Fu Panda can't figure out — just 29% in their matchups. Toy Story causes similar problems at 33%.
