NightmareFuel.Kung Fu Panda 2 This is the current image:

Peacocks can't be scary, you say? Let this guy convince you otherwise.

Not terrible, but if you've watched the film, you would know that Shen is always making these insane expressions, so this one image of him doesn't really stand out as more nightmarish than the others. Here's a scene from the movie that does:

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kungfupanda2nightmarefuelwolves_5.PNG

This image features Lord Shen, the main villain, attacking young Po when he was a baby and burning his village down, as well as two horrifying wolf minions charging at him. This could also definitely be a case of The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You as the scene is from baby Po's perspective and the wolves run right at the camera.

Also if you're not a fan of the caption you could also use:

Get them all! - said during this scene

I took away your parents, I scarred you for life. - said later on to Po about murdering his family

Young Shen was in line to rule Gongmen City, but he wanted more. - said by the Soothsayer right before this scene

Not a fan of either, TBH.

Fair enough, I'll look again and see if I can find one that's better

[up][up][tup] to second one.

Or look at Po's 2D animated nightmare.

Suggested replacement > current.

[up] Is also a good idea.

Had a looksie for images from Po's 2D nightmare scene. There are some good ones:

  • [1]: OP suggestion, but with better quality.
  • [2]: Similar to OP suggestion, with a focus on Shen.
  • [3]: Another one of Shen, quality's not great, but wiki-size it might be ok.
  • [4]: Po's POV 1
  • [5]: Po's POV 2
  • Po's POV images together are a bit heartbreaking
  • [6]: A wolf 1
  • [7]: A wolf 2

[up] First image honestly sells me terror, especially with those blank eyes and the fact they are approaching the audience.

Others are simply stylistic animals (not inherently scary) or comes across as Tear Jerker.

Crowner. OP and 6.1 are slightly different frames so they are separate options.

A crop of 6.1's in and tagged; recycle the old caption?

I would suggest a new caption that is actually a quote from the movie, I gave some suggestions but if you have other ones we can go with those.

In the scene the image is from he's saying "Get them all!" so you could just go with that

"Get them all" is way too generic.

While not an actual line from the movie, how about "This is why pandas are almost extinct" as a caption?

Hmm, that could work. He does say "There are no more pandas" at one point, which is similar to what you said and a quote.
