::I would have enjoyed a thematically appropriate cameo from Werner Herzog, who isn’t averse to popping up in random nonsense::

You're right—Paddington and Werner Herzog are a pairing for the ages.

No Herzog, but there is a pretty blatant Fitzcaraldo joke, so his presence is felt at least.

Great to hear there is no slump in the third outing. And if you are so inclined, I can also highly recommend the Paddington animated series with Ben Whishaw that airs on Nickelodeon and Paramount+. The human characters are all the same, but are not based on or voiced by the movie performers. But it still brings the charm (in bite-sized pieces).
