Outline of First Term Paper

Introduction
A.    Animated Feature film: Kung Fu Panda
B.    Thesis- The movie takes place on earth but the physics is exaggerated to make the film more entertaining and fun. 

Body
1.     Exaggerated Actions and Reactions
a.      The father is able to throw quite a few bowls at Poe very quickly which Poe is able to catch  without dropping them or flinching.
b.     Poe hits runs into a wall, cracking it but later, when connected to a chair with fireworks, he runs into the same wall, which possibly the same force and not cracking it.
c.      When he tries to use a tree like a catapult, the tree does not move, but when he gets off, it snaps back with surprising speed and hits him
d.     When Poe pushes a punching dummy, the dummy swings back with more force and pushes Poe over.

2.     Gravity
a.      The furious five is able to seemly fly through the air
b.     Snakes, which normally cannot fly, seemed to be able to fight midair
c.      During some of the fight scenarios, the animals seem to pause a little too long at the apex before falling back down.

3.     Squash and stretch
a.      Poes facial expressions are pushed to show how he is feeling and make him seem more silly.
b.     During the final fight scene between Poe and the tiger, there are several moments where the timing slows down and the tigers face is squashed by Poe’s butt.

Conclusion 
1.     The law of Physics is broken throughout the film even though it takes place in a earthlike world.
2.     This difference creates a more entertaining movie.
