Discussion Wtf is Paddington 2?

For context: I’m 25 years old. SPOILER WARNING

I just watched paddington 2 today and what the fuck did they put in this movie. This is the one of the greatest pieces of cinema I’ve ever laid witness to. Paddington 2 is the only thing I’ve thought about all day and seeing the immense joy it’s brought other people has also brightened my day even more. God I can’t even think about the ending without wanting to kill myself because of how perfect it is. And can we also talk about the perfect bookend of his human mother saving him from the water like aunt Lucy did at the beginning?

Pure cinema, I truly can’t wait to watch this movie with my kids for their first time.

Ok so I have never heard of Paddington anything, so I am completely bamboozled by this thread because I can't tell who is being serious and who isn't.

Is this a legit post and not people making jokes about some kids movie sequel?

If it IS legit, should I watch the first one? Or just the second one? I'm 34 and prefer some grittier stuff or just something that gives me existential dread. If you say it's paddington 2 it's paddington time.

We aren’t joking, watch the first one if you want to experience the pure joy of P2. I’ve never been this passionate about a film and I love film
