Jack Black Hopes Kids See The World Differently After Watching Kung Fu Panda:
The Dragon Knight
[[link removed]] 
Who doesn’t love Jack Black? The actor and dad talked with Scary Mommy about
reprising his role in the new Netflix series, nearly 15 years after the original
movie. But the big lesson Black wants kids to take away from the show is that
the world is really one big global community, and we have to work together –
across cultures – to save it.
