And that is disappointing coming from a film whose tagline is, “Be the best you can.”įor those who are asking, this film doesn’t live up to the high standards set by the first two parts but still manages to stay endearing and fun, like a giant panda hug. The sense of wonder that we associated with the first two films is missing this time round. It offers everything we have come to expect from the franchise without breaking any new ground. The film offers entertainment for children while being substantive enough to keep the parents engaged. Maybe they are saving her for the next film. Kate Hudson as Mei Mei is mostly forgotten in Kung Fu Panda 3. They are probably saving her for Kung Fu Panda 4. Then there is Mei Mei, the ribbon-dancing panda who is brought in as prospective love interest for Po and then forgotten. Jack Black plays the bumbling Po to the hilt and the new pandas just add to the madness. The film also offers the gentle humour that we have come to associate with the franchise. Especially watch out for scenes with split screens. In terms of CGI, Kung Fu Panda 3 is probably the best in the franchise and 3D just adds to the effect. Even the spirit world’s yellow-going-on-gold tones are delightfully done. ![]() Its dulcet sunset, its psychedelic burst of colour and its inhabitants will be etched in your memory. The panda village, especially, is a thing of beauty. This journey of self awareness for Po, his two fathers and even for Shifu is rendered in glorious colour which takes your breath away. Forget about learning the power of Chi and saving world, Po is not even sure if he is a real panda! After terrorising Miles Teller in Whiplash, JK Simmons is now up to no good in China as Kai. Po, in his camp, has got his newfound real dad Li (a beautifully understated Bryan Cranston), a village full of cute, cuddly pandas and a bucketful of self doubt. Kai has got hold of Chi or life force of all the kung fu masters in the spirit world and now uses them as ugly jade zombie warriors. ![]() This time the threat comes from a yak from the spirit world, Kai (JK Simmons, having done terrorising Milles Teller in Whiplash, he is up to no good in China). Po is happy living with his adopted father and training with master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman) and the furious five – Tigress (Angelina Jolie), Monkey (Jackie Chan), Mantis (Seth Rogen), Viper (Lucy Liu) and Crane (David Cross). ![]() Now that we have got the confession out of the way, here’s taking a stab at Kung Fu Panda’s plot. Bryan Cranston’s Li is an exercise in subtlety. The father-son duo of Li and Po are adorable. I challenge you not to crave food when you are bombarded by so many pretty visuals of the same. His adopted dad, the goose Mr Ping (James Hong), uses them as filial reinforcers and his biological father, Li (Bryan Cranston), teaches him that a panda never uses chopsticks while eating dumplings.For why eat one dumpling with chopsticks when you can shovel down four with your paws? In this profound moral lesson for kids and parents alike, where do dumplings figure? You heard us mention Po loves his food but his relationship with dumplings is on a much deeper level – he uses them as training incentive and ammunition. The return cast is joined by faces from the mystic panda village. A little bit like all of us, and telling us that we can own the world only if we could be bothered to strive and believe. This is his charm and his impediment – others have seen his greatness but he wants to stick to what he can do rather than what he is capable of. No sir, three films down and he is still to come to terms with it. Read: Angelina Jolie’s children voice baby pandas in Kung Fu Panda 3įor those who came in late, Kung Fu Panda 3 is the third coming of Po, a food-loving panda who is destined to become the dragon warrior but simply can’t believe it. What was my first reaction after watching Kung Fu Panda 3 with its A-list voice cast (Angelina Jolie, Jack Black, Bryan Cranston, JK Simmons, Dustin Hoffman blah blah), visual splendour, stunning 3D effects and the bumbling world saviour Po? That I wanted dumplings, and noodles, and soup.

Having a card taken from you by one player, only to see that card later appear in another’s yard, is a novelty that doesn’t wear off. Being able to acquire cards directly from other players keeps the decks small in size and cards constantly moving around the table - encouraging players to rethink any strategies that require a card they no longer have. Any cards not used during a player’s turn are placed in their yard, except for valuable ‘best friend’ cards placed in their discard regardless of use. After their own action, the player can choose to take a card from the park - a public row of cards, similar to other deckbuilders - or from another player’s yard. The recruitment stage is easily the most exciting part of playing Fort. Any number of elements in a single turn can change a player’s strategy, ensuring that Fort keeps things exciting throughout its satisfyingly short playtime of around 20 to 30 minutes. This forces players to choose the cards they take and play much more carefully, making sure each and every action counts.ĭespite how uncomplicated player turns can be, the simple structure opens up a wide range of possible choices and factors to consider. Unlike many other deckbuilders, where your entire hand of cards can be played to buy as many cards as your resources allow each turn, in Fort players play only a single card and take just one other to add to their deck. Turns move quickly in Fort with a small amount of straightforward steps to complete and actions that are easy for all players to understand. The components of the game are well made, you can imagine laying them out for a game on the tarmac of your neighbourhood street. The overall look and feel adds to the charm and whimsy of Fort’s theme.įort draws you in with its endearing depictions of pasta sculptures and water-pistol fights, but its gameplay takes it beyond being whimsical and into a deckbuilding game worth paying attention to.

To access the flywheel key you will first need to remove the spark plug. ![]() How To Access The Lawnmower Flywheel Key? You will need to remove the flywheel on the lawnmower first so let’s take a look at how to do that. It’s very simple to replace the flywheel key itself, however getting access to be able to remove it can be a little time consuming and frustrating if you don’t have the correct equipment. How Difficult Is It To Replace A Lawnmower Flywheel Key? To inspect it properly, however, it’s essential to remove the flywheel and inspect the whole part as even the slightest mark in the flywheel key can massively alter the timing and cause the lawnmower to kickback. It should look perfectly in line with the crankshaft. You can, however, remove the starter recoil and inspect the flywheel key from above. It is not visible fully until the flywheel itself is fully removed. The flywheel key is located underneath the flywheel.

If the flywheel key breaks or becomes sheared then your lawnmower will have poor timing or perhaps not start at all. It is there to prevent the crankshaft from becoming bent. Please subscribe to my youtube channel here The idea of a flywheel key is to save more expensive parts of the engine from being damaged, The flywheel key is designed to shear if the mower blade hits an object like a paving stone or tree stump hard enough to move the flywheel into an incorrect position with the crankshaft. Take a look at my video on how to replace a sheared flywheel key here ![]() This is what sets the timing on the lawnmower. The flywheel key is a small metal rectangular piece of metal that keeps the crankshaft and flywheel lined up when the flywheel is bolted to the engine. There is also a key at the bottom of the crankshaft where the blade adapter sits. You can find all parts required for repair in the recommended parts store here What Is A Lawn Mower Flywheel Key?Ī flywheel key is a little rectangular piece of metal that sits at the top of the crankshaft on your petrol lawnmower. This happens when the flywheel is in the incorrect position. It really doesn’t take much to slightly throw the timing off a lawnmower. If your lawnmower pull cord jerks back when you attempt to start up the lawnmower you can almost certainly be sure that at some point the blade has hit a hard object such as a tree stump or perhaps the edge of a paving stone. It can be eliminated by checking the crankshaft flywheel key and replacing it. In short, the engine fires at the incorrect time and causes the pull cord to jerk back in your hand. Most petrol lawnmowers kickback because the flywheel key in the lawnmower crankshaft has sheared causing the engine to be mistimed. Let’s take a look at how to eliminate kickback and some of the reasons it happens. The first of those is that the flywheel key has sheared, however, there are other reasons also. Usually, there is a simple reason your lawnmower tries to rip your arm off when attempting to start your lawnmower.
