Kung Fu Panda2008

(Shifu and Tai Lung fight in the Jade Palace)

Tai Lung:
I rotted in jail for twenty years... because of your weakness.

Shifu:
Obeying your master isn't weakness!

Tai Lung:
You knew I was the Dragon Warrior. (Flashback ensues; 20 years ago, in the exact same spot in the Hall of Warriors; Tai Lung awaits Shifu and Oogway's evaluation; Tai Lung proudly believes he will receive the dragon scroll) You always knew. But, when Oogway said otherwise (Oogway turns to Shifu and shakes his head in refusal, and walks away. Shifu is about to say something, but remains silent out of respect for his master) ...what did you do? (Tai Lung cannot believe what he is hearing and seeing) What did you do?! (Scene returns to present; Tai Lung is furious) Nothing!

Shifu:
You were not meant to be the Dragon Warrior! That was not my fault!

Tai Lung:
(going into a rage) Not your fault?! (Angrily knocks down Master Flying Rhino's armor) Who filled my head with dreams?! (Starts throwing weapons at Shifu) Who drove me to train until my bones cracked?! WHO DENIED ME MY DESTINY?!? (Launches a volley of blades at Shifu, who deflects all of them with ease, but barely countering the last one)

Shifu:
(Successfully driving last blade into the ground) It was never my decision to make!

(Tai Lung growls and leaps to Oogway's shrine. He finally realizes that Oogway is gone and picks up the deceased master's staff.)

Tai Lung:
(Holds the staff out to Shifu) It is now. (angered, Shifu charges Tai Lung, hitting him before Tai Lung uses the curved end of Oogway's staff to catch Shifu by the neck and pin him to the ground.) Give me the scroll!

Shifu:
I would rather die!

(Tai Lung growls, then tries to kill Shifu with Oogway's staff. Shifu pushes against it, and the staff breaks in half and clutters away. They fight some more, until Tai Lung evetually gains the upper hand.)

Tai Lung:
(furiously pummelling Shifu) All I ever did, I did to make you proud! Tell me how proud you are, Shifu! Tell me! TELL ME! (his final blow sends Shifu flying across the room. He lands in a heap at the foot of the stairs)

Shifu:
(tired, solemn and sad) I have always been proud of you. From the first moment, I've been proud of you. And it was my pride, that blinded me; I loved you too much to see what you were becoming... what I was turning you into. I'm... I'm sorry.

(Tai Lung is taken aback for a moment, but recovers and seizes Shifu by the throat, holding him up in the air)

Tai Lung:
I don't want your apology; I want my scroll! (sees the Dragon Scroll is gone) Where is it?! (Slams Shifu to the floor)

Shifu:
(Trying his best to escape Tai Lung's grip around his neck.)The Dragon Warrior- has taken scroll halfway across China by now. (Coughs) You will never see that scroll, Tai Lung. (Tai Lung draws out his claws, ready to kill Shifu) Never! Never.... (Tai Lung snarls, about to lay down his death blow on his former master.)

Po:
(off-screen) Hey!

(Tai Lung stops and turns around. He sees Po standing with the dawn behind him at the entrance.... currently panting for breath)

Po:
Ugh, stairs. Ohhh.

Tai Lung:
Who are you?

Po:
(catching his breath) Buddy... I'm the Dragon Warrior. (Gasps one last time)

Tai Lung:
(disbelievingly) You? (to Shifu as he tosses him to the floor) Him? He's a panda. [To Po] You're a panda. What are you going to do, big guy? Sit on me? [Chuckles]

Po:
Don't tempt me. [laughs] Now, I'm gonna use this. [Holds up the Dragon Scroll] You want it? Come get it.
