Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters (2011)


 Plot

                                                   Long ago in the city of Jinzhao, Rhino (Paul Scheer), Ox (Dennis Haysbert) and Croc (Tony Leondis) are small-time pit fighters who attracted the attention of Grand Master Oogway (Randall Duk Kim), who, seeing their talent and focus, wished them to find something worthy to fight for.
                                                  As the trio fought themselves to a standstill, two of the villainous Wu Sisters were freeing their leader and eldest sister Su Wu (Sumalee Montano). To recapture them, Oogway persuades Rhino, Ox and Croc into helping him find the sisters at Hubei Volcano. However, to his disappointment, Oogway has to appeal to them with vague prospects of being put on a path to riches to get that cooperation.
                                                 While the Wu Sisters plot to unite the various criminal gangs to seize control of China, Master Oogway has to brush off each of his compatriot's petty proposals during the journey to abandon the others for their benefit.
                                                  At camp, Oogway eventually discovers that while Croc and Ox are motivated by narcissism and greed respectively, Rhino has a deep-seated need to win his dad Master Flying Rhino's (David Cowgill) respect.
                                                 To that, Oogway suggests to all of them that their current goals will only keep them wanting more, and changing their ways can lead to better lives for all.
