Film Lovers Rejoice! ‘Kung Pow 2’ Is Moving Forward!
Once every generation, a film will come along that’s so revolutionary, that it changes the way we view cinema. From Citizen Kane to The Godfather, Rocky to Forest Gump. But all of these surefire classics pale in comparison to Kung Pow: Enter The Fist. A film that was obviously far ahead of its time based on the unjust reviews of 2002, Steve Oedekerk’s overdub of the 1976 kung fu movie, Tiger and Crane Fists, film has since reached cult status across the Internet.
The only real flaw with this unforgettable movie going experience was that it teased a sequel that never came. Due to its initial negative reception, and Oedekerk’s shift in focus towards fully embracing his love of farm animals with Nickelodeon’s Barnyard, it was assumed that Kung Pow would live on in legend alone.
That is until Dragonfest in Burbank, California, where The Chosen One himself announced that he was indeed moving forward with Kung Pow 2, 13 years after he graced us with the original. Details outside of this confirmation that it’s still a thing have yet to surface, but we’re just excited to know that we’re going to get more of the poorly dubbed, awkwardly shrieking, one boobed brilliance that we fell in love with for some reason.
What’s your reaction to this Kung Pow revival? Will we see the likes of Ling, Master Betty and Wimp Lo join The Chosen One? Let us know what you want to see below, and check back as more information becomes available!
