In the vein of previous year's promotional stunts like "
Dreamgirls" and "
Bee Movie,"
Dreamworks pulled out all the stops at the Carlton Beach Pier Wednesday morning for its out-of-competition animated flick "
Kung Fu Panda." Dozens of people adorned with allegedly 150 pound panda suits and danced on the pier to the tune of
Carl Douglas' "Kung Fu Fighting." Out of the rather stunning crowd of pandas came "Panda" star
Jack Black, who drew cheers as he danced along with his costumed friends. "Panda" premieres Thursday at the Lumiere Theatre.
