I still haven't seen KUNG FU PANDA, so I can't tell you if a sequel is justified or just another cash-grab.
I can, however, tell you that KUNG FU PANDA 2 will definitely be coming, and wearing fashionable 3-D glasses. We just heard that Jack Black would reunite with the writers of the original for a parody of the BOURNE movies, but he's also going back with them to the CGI well from whence he drew buckets of bucks.
Dreamworks Animation will bring back Jack Black, Angelina Jolie and "other members of the original voice cast" for the sequel, due in summer of 2011 (when CARS 2 also pulls into theaters). The movie will be released in 3-D, which will be the standard for Dreamworks' CG toons as of next year.
Dreamworks Animation honcho Jeffrey Katzenberg explains the importance of 3-D, and why you should embrace it, in great detail RIGHT HERE.
Extra Tidbit:
THR says the sequel is "Panda-ering to fans", which is such a bad pun that I can hardly "bear" it. Ahem.
