@@woofyou1186 dude what do you mean?, Shrek 3 is far worse
@@woofyou1186 i was surprised to hear that many people don't like the first movie
Literally the only joke i laughed at was this one:
Shrek: "well, somebody better be dying!"
King Harold: "I'm dying"
The film: Proceeds to Milk the ever loving hell outta the joke of Harold dying for 10 minutes.
The scene where two guys come out of a van with smoke and start talking smoking myrrh was pretty funny
and even then that joke is pretty bad, really goes to show how bad this movie is.
Another good thing about this movie is the Spanish dub, which made some of the bad jokes go decent
DAAAAHHH! you really need to get yourself a pair of jammies!

I wont lie, that shot of Prince Charming riding through the forest on a horse, only for the camera to zoom out and reveal that he's actually pretending to ride a stick with a horse head in front of scrolling screen always gets a chuckle out of me
Turned into a meme for some months
That is the only scene I like in this movie.

tbh i never understood why Rapunzel turned against the other princesses. it always felt like such a "we pulled this out of our asses" moment to me.
If I had to be honest, it should've been Cinderella, but like in Cinderella III: A Twist Of Time, they should've made the other evil sister pretend to be her to lead the princesses away
@@DivineChaos204 oh hell, that would’ve been so good. We would’ve had tons of sisterhood jokes too with Doris, oh I’m so sad now
I have a theory that it was meant to be a jab at Tangled. Whilst Tangled wouldn't come until 3 years later, the movie was in development for a long time so I'm guessing Dreamworks thought/hoped that Tangled would come out the same year as Shrek the Third.
@@Homerstar Hmmmm what would it be about tho?
Same 😭
I never understood how it was a plan to send Shrek to a high school unannounced and to just pick up some kid and take him home. Wouldn't they send the same people with the trumpets that collected Shrek and Fiona?
Would've made sense if Shrek INSISTED that he be the one to get Arthur, because he doesn't want to be at the castle
Admittedly, “Help! An adult is trying to relate to me!” Is pretty funny.
@HarmonE the Animation Addict Story: my school decided it would be a good idea to make us wear different outfits and call it the “FINAL FITTT CHECKKK”
*hey hey my broski dude, wanna take this dope dope throne* - poggies-
@@boop9173 What? Uh…can you elaborate?
@@danieltobin4498 Sorry, I was a little too vague :)
The teachers and faculty at my school decided to have us wear certain outfits during a week-long period in May.
Monday: fancy clothes
Tuesday: casual clothes
(I forgot what we had to wear on Wednesday and Thursday)
Friday: Red, white, and blue clothes [for Memorial Day])
If we wore outfits that corresponded with the theme, we'd get extra credit. And they decided to call it the "FINAL FITTT CHECKKK". Literally. In all caps.
Hopefully that helps 😀
@@boop9173 Oh my God, I know what you're talking about, and I hate it! My middle school did that every year. The only day I was interested in was casual day.

Apart from the Pinocchio lying scene, a scene I also find funny (kinda) is when Charming’s practising for killing Shrek. He’s just killing people in Shrek suits and hearing them grunt when they die is always a nice detail. I also love Charming’s frustration during his practise. Most of the time it gets a chuckle from me.
the high school sequence was great and should've been longer. Besides, Puss in Boots' funniest lines were "some people don't understand borderlines" and "you my friend are royally ******"
"Well somebody better be dying" was also pretty funny, then it ruined it with multiple fake deaths
Indeed, it got funny when he thought the last guy in the Shrek costume he just killed was laying around.
"WHO TOLD YOU TO STOP DANCING?!"
Just imagine if Prince Charming had the character arc of realizing that his self-worth wasn't tied to having the throne. He could've grown into an unlikely ally to our heroes. Basically, he could've been the prototype for Ken.
Who’s Ken?
The only good joke in this movie is Prince Charming.
the joke is the movie itself
@@QuackersClocksYT That implies the movie is funny.
no, i didn't say the movie was a *good* joke. i just said the movie itself is a joke, and not in a good way.
@@QuackersClocksYT I know what you meant.
That is right
things that are shrek canon: far far away idol
things that arent: an entire fucking movie
Wait far far away idol is cannon or am i being stupid
@@bagman1984 It apparently takes place before Donkey finds out he's a dad and also before the Livin' a vida loca finale.
@@McBadassish after the livin' la vida loca bit but b4 he finds out he is a Dad.
@@McBadassish Huh, I'll be damned.
@@McBadassish nope. Far far away idol is after La Vida Loca and after Donkey finds out he’s a dad, because in FFAI, Dragon is already there.
This movie is a dumpster fire but there are two scenes that did get a chuckle out of me:
Arthur: "And Gwen, oh Gwen, I've always loved you."
Gwen: "Ew."
And
Arthur: "Somebody help me! I've been kidnapped by a monster trying to relate to me!"
There’s a few jokes I laugh at but the “somebody better be dying”
“I’m dying”
Always gets me
Feels like the "I'm dying line" should have been cut.
Best quote in shrek movie
“ Ahem. This is like totally embarrassing, but my friend Tiffany thinkest thou vex her so soothly and she thought perchance thou would want to ask her to the homecoming dance or something.”
luis montelongo best promposal. Or homecoming whatever
Best quote for sure, but what even is "thou vex her so soothly"? You anger her so calmly?
Ruby Fox I think in this context vex means confuse and I think he means that she is great in an indescribable way?
@@rubyfox3424 I think it means she's intrigued. Considering the context...
It’s like whatever... she’s just really into college guys and mythical creatures n stuff
How to make Shrek's fear of kids actually good:
Make it a fear of him letting down his children. Like instead of the avalanche of babies, make the dream about seeing his potential kid grow up, and one way or another have him fail them in some manner. Maybe he doesn't know how to treat children well, so his kid grows up to dislike him. Or maybe he fails to protect them in one way or another. It would ride along his general insecurity of not being good enough compared to the good things he has in life.
I mean, those WERE his fears all along, and he made that explicit. The movie just didn't explore it that much. They just showed how Shrek was able to overcome those fears with Artie.
or maybe hes worried society will hate his kids too since theyd be ogre princes and princesses
bekah saxon Given the context of the films, I’d say it’s an understandable fear of the cycle of abuse, in Shrek 3, Shrek mentions that his father was abusive, and in the original dialogue for the campfire scene in S1 Donkey picks up the fact that Shrek’s antisocial attitude is due to the fact that “someone hurt you so bad, someone hurt you many years ago” to which Shrek immediately snaps “leave my parents out of this!” And in a tie-in comic for the movies, we learn that his parents are genuinely not nice people.
@@cthonisprincess4011 yeh there are dozens of better things too do with his parent fear
Or he's just worried of having some weird "ogre instinct" according to himself. He doesn't,his dad was just a bad person. But he's afraid.
So the movie has him learning he can break the cycle once and for all with his kids
When I was a kid that DADA scene cracked me up 😂 kind of still does
I SWEAR LOL
DADA
it's all in the delivery lol like if I were shrek I'd totally freak out

@@Sunaru6914 *O H G O D*

@@polipix_ No one: comments that are rude for no reason other than to point out the obvious.
I feel like it would have gone down better if they decided to have Prince Charming become hardened and cruel by the death of his mother, instead of keeping him as a pathetic loser. Think about it, he’s lost *everything*. His love interest, his destiny, his own family, everything is gone. He should have become something sinister, maybe personally scarring up his face as a way to denounce his name, thinking it no longer befits him. He pours all waking moments into becoming the head of the fairytale badguys with force.
When he seizes far far away, he doesn’t want to rule it, he wants to destroy it. He wants to render the kingdom that ruined his life asunder, and he wants Shrek there to witness it all. Then, and only then, would he want to kill Shrek. Knowing the ogre has felt a meagre amount of the pain he had felt. And after it was all said and done, he’d look up into the night sky and whisper, his voice raspy from smoke inhalation and ceaseless battle. “for you... mommy.”
For the creators, who seem to have wanted to make something easy and safe, that idea would've been too good.
Honestly I Dislike Mushrooms can we make an unofficial Shrek 3 with this plot
That literally sounds like Shrek the Third could be a passably Game of Thrones-esque animated movie & I love it
Honestly I Dislike Mushrooms You just made a better Shrek movie than Dreamworks did for Shrek the Third
Damn. That would've a Great Version of Charming.
15:55 fun fact, in latin-american spanish dubbing, they actually made a joke (a good one) in there. the name of the school (worcestershire) is the same as the sauce, they adress it when they arrive at the school and in that scene he says "let's beat Tabasco and the other sauces"
funnier than the original. actually, lat-am spanish Shrek can be funnier than the originals
I tend to believe that every non-english dubbed version of Shrek is funnier than the original. Like, when I compare English dub to Polish dub of any Shrek film (maybe except the last one) I cringe at the English dubbing XD
@@moonalpaca6461Yeah, the Polish dub kills it, it's absolutely iconic!
Here's the Croatian Shrek for reference. In the Croatian dub his speaking mannerisms were the same as that of a person from the Croatian southern coast (Dalmatia) which is the bread and butter of Balkan stereotyping in Croatia and basically each time he opened his mouth he was funny, and legit at certain points I thought he was gonna start cursing. This is extra funny because Croatian curse phrases are so comically creative and among the most insulting in the world but at the drawback of not being easily translateable.
Honestly, the third movie could have kept the whole Shrek being scared of being a dad but go into why by going into his childhood and how it became harder for him to accept affection

Shrek 2: Maintaining love
Shrek 3: bruh
Shrek 4: Appreciating love

@SEAN GRIGSBY well it's a reboot soooooo....
@@miguelvalle898 A soft reboot would be really helpful tbh
Or maybe they should just leave it alone at this point since the story is pretty much over and we need to stop killing everything we love.
I liked that joke where Pinnochio keeps using double negatives to not tell them where Shrek is while not lying.
ECL28E another funny moment in the movie is when Shrek roasts Charming
The idea of Charming and Rumpelstiltskin teaming up and Charming having a redemption arc is honestly a great idea. I’d love to see a fan made film that touches on that idea. We’d get an awesome main villain, and you could show a character being redeemed. It’d be way better!
Shranos snap is now my canon ending to this non-canon movie.
Also why the f can't Fiona's mother rule the kingdom after the King's death? She ruled with him for decades and she's more reasonable than he ever was. But no, let's go fetch an inexperienced kid instead...
I agree. I still don't understand how she and Fiona got passed over. Isn't Arthur technically her relative and not the King's?
My best guess is that Far Far Away is a patriarchal monarchy, hence why Fiona's husband would assume the throne but a direct male relative would still have a better claim than him
If Far Far Away ran on a proper monarchy, then no, Queen Lillian couldnt take the throne. And neither could Shrek. The crown would go to FIONA, with Shrek being her Prince Consort.
@@GenevieveYosoVT That's what I thought, although it was implied in Shrek 2 that Far Far Away was Queen Lillian's Kingdom. The King was literally a frog who fell in love her, not a Prince who got turned into a frog. So shouldn't he have been Prince Consort as well?
Instead abolish it and make leader
The only scene that I liked was when Prince Charming is asking Pinocchio where Shrek is because he can't lie. So Pinocchio tells the truth but gives long winded nothing answers. That got genuine laughs out of me. Everything else no
But this TH-camr says it wasn't funny, yall a bunch of followers this movie has tons of comedy, people just bandwagon hate

I find it so weird that Arthur is voiced by Justin Timberlake, because J.T. is canonically in the Shrek universe. He's the knight/celeb that Fiona has as a poster on her ceiling in Shrek 2. IDK why but it just makes me have questions about Arthurt and this knight guy...
Well it was the middle ages and incest was common in royalty....
I admit, I liked Pinocchio's attempts to avoid lying.
I...uh, don't know where he isn't!
That was imo the best part of the movie. Only part where I laughed.
Aka: how to talk like a politician when asked a direct question
I thought it was kinda clever. Don’t know why, but I think it’s clever
Yeah. I liked that part and only that part.
This movie would've been dope if Shrek had some flashbacks to his childhood to give him anxiety about having his own children. Just in general I wish this movie took his fears more seriously. I think it would've greatly improved it.
That will be good 👍
It could have been about Shrek confronting and overcoming past trauma, but instead it turned out to just be a weird field trip with Fiona's cousin
agree. since Shrek 2 talks about Fiona's family, this movie should talk about Shrek's family.
Exactly, in Shrek canon (if you count the musical), Shrek was abandoned by his parents on his 7th birthday. He never felt as if he had guardians looking out for him, or a family of his own. Of course he would be nervous about being a father, he never had a true father figure to protect him as a child. The movie could have covered that.
But instead we got avalanches of Shrek babies in a comic relief sequence
@@melodytheatre2887 it’s also canon that his father tried eating him and it’s apparently a normal thing for ogres, could of been an interesting take on the idea of a person who suffered child abuse becoming a parent and not wanting their kids to have the same childhood
They could've made the dream a LOT darker by having him be his father, walking to the crib, salivating over eating one of his babies, and that would show Shrek's fear of becoming a father without us knowing what Shrek's fear is. It would show genuine proof of his fear, then with his heart to heart with Arthur (the one where he talks about the current topic), we would get an explanation of his dream.
Edit: for the cyclops with a child, Shrek could've talked to him and convinced him to let him out of the chains by talking about how he, too, is going to become a father.
Edit 2: for the introduction of Arthur, he should've given a less... convincing and charismatic speech, such that he gets ridiculed by everyone in the assembly and thus crush him emotionally. Since this movie seems to be about conquering fears (yup), his talk with Shrek (people thought that I was a monster, and for a while, I believed it) would help him become more confident and charming (hey!) so that his speech at the end would seem like it could convince the villains (remove Hook and Rumpelstiltskin from scene) that they can be/do what they wanted to without fear of rejection.
remember the target audience is for children. Yes it is also made with the intention of appealing to mature adults too.
But baby cannabalism would have made this worse imo.
@@caitlyncarvalho7637 To be fair he had a really long life for a frog.
Frogs live for about 12 years but he managed to grow old with his human wife.
@@caitlyncarvalho7637 Hmm I would assume so. Since his appearance changed to that of a human, perhaps his physiology has modified also?
They also could've made the Cyclops more sympathetic by maybe instead of him taking pleasure in chaining up Shrek, Cyclops could've been like "Sorry, ogre. No hard feelings, I just have a kid to feed." Then instead of the cyclops' daughter being a little girl, she's instead an infant in her playpen nearby looking at her Dad with love in her "eye" that he's the greatest thing ever despite him doing whats considered heinous to Shrek.
Then Shrek would be surprised and question, "Your kid isn't scared of you?" Cyclops could then enlighten Shrek by saying, "Of course not! I may be a monster, but I try to be the best parent by making my kid feel safe and protected despite all the rough things in the world." This would then release Shrek's fear of thinking he'd be like his dad and would reassure him that he has what it takes to make his children feel protected and safe, since he's not a monstervlike his father. It would honestly be a very emotional scene....
Yikes. I hate that idea for the dream sequence. Sounds like a horror film! No thanks. Glad we didn’t get that.
I love your idea with Shrek and the Cyclops and his daughter. Sounds so sweet and beautiful.

Shrek The Third: Mid
Shrek Forever After: Definetly a Stepup from the Third Movie
Shrek 4: serious
I actually have a much more intriguing set up for Shrek The Third. There are some important things to keep in mind, however, since this won't be a full rewrite, more so another draft of the story that keeps the cohesive themes this one tries to aim for. 1), Shrek becoming a father, 2), Arthur being chosen as King of Far Far Away and also involving Charming in a clever way.
With that said, in my opinion, the villain of the third film should have been King (or Lord) Richard III, tying into the vague mentions of Arthurian characters, such as Lancelot and Arthur himself. The story's beginning can remain the same, with King Harold dying and Shrek needing to balance his new responsibilities as King. That is, until a diplomat from the neighbouring Kingdom of Camelot (spare me the Monty Python jokes for a second) arrives and proposes a truce between Lord Richard III (Harold's brother, and Fiona's paternal uncle) and The Wizard Merlin, who is also a supporting antagonist alongside Charming. Although initially the truce seems sincere, various Fairytale villains (as in The Evil Queen and Captain Hook) begin ransacking Far Far Away, as part of a "justification" for Camelot to occupy FFA.
*This* would give Shrek reason to find Arthur, who wouldn't be a pathetic teenager, but instead a Prince in exile due to his father (King Richard) having forsaken Arthur after the Knight's of Pendragon, led by Lancelot, denounce Arthur due to not being able to extract Excalibur from the Stone. By tying the conflict to bad father's, and seeing Shrek and Fiona working with Arthur, we can hence see Shrek come into his own, not only as a father, but as a person others can love and adore.
Boom... better movie written in under three minutes.

The true reason this film was a disaster:
I was not in the casting
Shrek 3 is just the Cars 2 of Dreamworks
Shrek: facing his fears
Shrek 2: getting over remaining insecurities
Shrek forever after: becoming less self centered
Shrek 3: uhhhhhhhh scared of responsibilities?
Shrek 3: *B A B Y F L O O D*
Oh, and don't forget throwing your responsibilities on a teenager, because...well, just because.
I honestly don't understand a lot of it, surrounding the succesion in this movie. Aren't they supposed to teach Shrek before the king dies? And if Shrek had gave up the throne, before he would become a king...they'd have to find a replacement.
Atleast that's what makes the most sense to me, either train your successor you have now, or find another one...it all just doesn't make sense to me
the whole thing of 'becoming less self centered' was forced, all he really wanted was time to unwind his brain and relax a little bit, but the script made shrek out to be a self centered jerk, which felt out of place and out of character, especially fiona, she should know better by now, that shrek adores her, and would do anything for her, he did that in shrek 2, but forever after felt out of place, with fiona making it seem like shrek regrets ever meeting her, when thats NOT the case, every new parent or veteran, NEEDS down time, or else they'd go completely bonkers and have a ton of meltdowns, its normal to want what shrek wanted, just some time to himself for a bit, not forever, but say, maybe two hours, trial period, to see how things went, its not like they couldn't have dropped their kids off with dragon and donkey, or even fiona's mother at the castle to chill out for, like i said, a couple hours to test the waters, everyone needs time to themselves for at least 10 minutes, it helps them clear their head and calm down if things look tense, so that they remain composed and not explode or rage, but forever after makes that look like being selfish, and maybe in some respects it is, but its a GOOD kind of selfish, now if shrek had yelled at not just the party goers, but fiona too, and said he hated his life, then stomped off to do whatever, now THAT might be the bad kind of selfish, sigh..always felt like shrek was mistreated from shrek the third onwards :P
@@joshuaarmstrong8664 that's a very good evaluation and has very many good points in there but put in context shrek wanted to leave his own children's birthday just because he didn't like it. It's not like he could've dropped his kids off if he tried because it would be cruel to leave them on their special day.
@@peekagloo yeah, he chose a bad time to want time off, it'd be rude, but just didnt think it was fair how he got treated, especially from fiona, she put words in his mouth, understand what you're saying though, it was bad timing
What every Shrek movie teaches:
-Shrek: don't judge a book by its cover
-Shrek 2: true love can overcome all challenges
-Shrek 4: be grateful of what you have, because one day you might lose it
-Shrek 3: run away from your responsibilities because there will be always someone else to solve your problems for you
Something doesn't feel right, isn't it?
Its* cover.
Not only was Shrek trying to abandon his responsibilities as the new king by dumping them on Arthur he was also going to run away and leave Fiona to raise their kids alone. They made him really selfish in 3.
@@Xehanort10 not selfish, but cowardly. Then again, that's way too much responsibility for someone like Shrek.
honestly the moral for shreck 3 could be the same as 4. We never knew how good shreck truly was intil it was stolen from us. Much like star wars
I only laughed at this movie while drinking water
It's interesting that this is the one Shrek film that turned out so bad, because it was definitely the most hyped. DreamWorks marketed the hell out of it, they really believed it would be a huge hit.
Yeah, I remember seeing the posters with Shrek wearing royal clothes, and I thought it could be on the same level as Shrek 2 (which I loved and eventually watched a lot more than the original). But then I actually watched Shrek the Third and already got turned off by the extremely washed out colors, as well as the dull story and humor, and forgettable soundtrack
One personally nice idea that they should’ve done for Shrek The Third is introduce Fairy God Mother’s husband and Prince Charming’s father, as he can be a perfect example of tapping into Shrek’s fears of being a father as well as be a compelling villain while also giving Charming some spotlight again.
I think the biggest flaw was making Charming the villain. I didn't buy Charming as a Villan. He wasn't evil or megalomaniacal like his mom. If anything she used him like a tool and he just did what she said. He was a mommas boy but this made him look delusional lmaoooo
@Lost family dog they could've had him realize he was being manipulated by Rumpelstiltskin or something
@Cherie Estela Fabular that would’ve been cool to see
@Cherie Estela Fabular or alternatively they could have used Charming's dad as a villain
True but in Shrek 2 his mother was killed by Shrek and he was exiled.
So technically that revenge story makes sense.
Agreed
The worst part is that this movie does have some genuinely good humour, and dialogue, there's clearly SOME talent behind it. It feels like there's one good writer getting drowned out by a bunch of terrible ones.
But this TH-camr says it wasn't funny, yall a bunch of followers this movie has tons of comedy, people just bandwagon hate
@@DopeDevastation stop spamming.
@Freesmart every movie is made from drafts so u have no point and its still funny and has many funny scenes
I mean personally, good humor in certain aspects of the movie doesn't save something with a bad storyline,, and schafrillas also makes a bunch of good points with how this movie degraded from 1 and 2's soundtracks and storyline
@@DopeDevastation funny but movie no good for the entirety of series
You don't even have to watch the third one to know what's going on in the fourth
I didnt even know 3 existed when i was 8, i always thought Forever After was the 3rd one, until i saw another reviewer a few years ago talk about why shrek 3 was the worst and realised there was a third one
Shrek 1: A great start for Shrek to find true love and true friendship
Shrek 2: A perfect way for Shrek to keep the love, even if a badass fairy's trying to stop it
Shrek 3: *[LOST INFO]*
Shrek 4: The best ending for a trilogy of all time!
They could have done so much more with Shrek being afraid of being a father. What if he's afraid that his children are going to be hunted down or lynched by people who hate ogres? What if he's still used to being feared so he assumes that his children are going to hate him? What if he's worried that his children are going to be alienated from how he grew up because they're royalty/celebrity children? But none of that is even considered, instead it's just
Baby flood
wow that’s actually so true, and it really parallels to real life issues as well...
I agree, these ideas are pretty good. But unfortunately, they thought "Nah, let's just kinda rip off Son of the Mask."
exactly what I was thinking!
I mean, they could even have had him worrying that he'd end up accidentally mashing them with his ogre strength.
Matt Trulock the line charming says about him not being good with kids I think it would work better with shrek already having kids
Take comfort in knowing that in an alternate universe, this movie doesn’t exist and Shrek is a perfect trilogy
Yes
But what would they name the 4th lol. Shrek the third ?
if it didn't exist that would make shrek a perfect duology
hold on, Google says duology isn't a word
oh well
You mean... This one?
Too bad we don't live in that universe.
16:00 all star in one bad shrek movie that stucks
13:27 I feel like the only reason they added the body swap plot was so they could do that joke.
This movie was so forgettable that I throught Shrek 1, Shrek 2 and Shrek Forever After: The Final Chapter were together a trilogy.
Honestly, I didn’t know this movie existed until I was ten years old. I went a whole decade thinking it never existed and I really want to get those years back come to think of it 😂
@@HRS-pj3zv When I was a child, my family and I didn't know that Shrek the TURD (2007) existed, so naturally we thought that Shrek (2001), Shrek 2 (2004) and Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010) were together a trilogy. When I turned 9 or 10 years old, I discovered the existence of Shrek the TURD (2007) because of a DVD, but I believed that Shrek the TURD (2007) was just some tv special, similar to Shrek the Halls ( 2007). But I watched Shrel the TURD (2007) only twice because I hated it, so I kept watching Shrek (2001), Shrek 2 (2004) and Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010) thinking that they formed a trilogy and because I loved these films, and I even watched Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010) and Puss in Boots (2011) in theaters.
I kept hiding Shrek the TURD (2007) from all my family and my whole family didn't know that Shrek the TURD (2007) existed, so my family and I still believed that Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010) it was the real third film in the franchise and my family didn't know that Shrek the TURD (2007) existed.
In 2013 or 2014 there were rumors saying that Shrek 5 was going to be released in 2016, and I asked myself: hey, but didn't we only have 3 Shrek films? Shrek (2001), Shrek 2 (2004) and Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010)?
It was there that when I was 11 or 12 years old I discovered that Shrek the TURD (2007) was the third film and not a tv special, and that Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010) was actually the fourth film of the franchise.
It was only in 2020 that I decided to make my mom, dad, godfather and godmother watch Shrek the TURD (2007) and they hated it, and we wanted to believe that Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter ( 2010) was the true third film of the franchise and think again that Shrek the TURD (2007) never existed.
If you want to know my ranking of the entire franchise (from worst to best), here it is:
05º Shrek the *TURD* (2007) (4.0/10) (Bad movie and I love to think that this movie doesn't exist)
04º Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010) (8.9/10) (Great movie and a great conclusion to the *TRILOGY,* because I love to think that Shrek 3: Forever After: The Final Chapter (2010) is the true third film of the franchise instead of Shrek the TURD (2007))
03º Puss in Boots (2011) (9.0/10) (perfect movie and I like Humpty Dumpt as a villain)
02º Shrek (2001) (9.3/10) (I love this movie)
01º Shrek 2 (2004) (10/10) (the best Shrek film of all time)

Amazing animated movies like Shrek 1, 2 and 4, as well as many other movies are the reason why I want to learn art and animation: I want to write and show meaningful stories in an enjoyable and fun way. Of course, live action is also a very good medium, but I'm pretty much in love with animation. Live action is pretty limited, but with animation, everything is possible. It's absolutely excellent, and I feel like animated movies shouldn't be belittled just because they're mostly associated with kids' entertainment.
In Hollywood, animation is separated from screenplay. Screenplay is the story writing part, while animation is done by animation studios. In animation studios, you work as a team to deliver the animation but the screenwriters and directors are the ones controlling the story. Usually, that's how it is in Hollywood.
As bad as this movie may be over all, there’s one part towards the end that’s undeniably awesome:
Charming:
“This was supposed to be MY happily ever after!”
Shrek:
“Well I guess you’ll have to keep looking!
*_Because I’m not giving up mine._* "

I literally viewed this movie for the first time in a psych ward
I have an idea for a rewrite of Shrek The Third:
Part 1: What James mentioned
Make the movie funnier. Make Prince Charming realize he isn't worthy of the throne. Make the new characters fucking matter more.
Part 2: Change Shrek's fear, therefore changing the theme.
Remember that part in Shrek 2 where King Harold said that line about "Presuming he doesn't EAT HIS OWN YOUNG"? What if instead of Shrek being afraid of babies, the news of Fiona being pregnant brought back PTSD of Shrek's own father, and instead of his fear being just a father, Shrek's afraid he'll be a terrible father like how he was raised, and that history will repeat itself? Doesn't that sound much more compelling than "uuuuh babi scary"? It would still be about love, but it would be about parental love and how even if emotions overwhelm you as a family, a love for a child and a love for family is unconditional? A movie about understanding the nature of love?
Charming: “Prepare foul beast, for your time is done!”
Mario: “No you!”
I couldn’t stop laughing
For real though, Shrek's insults at Charming are genuinely hilarious.
*Prince Charming got Reverse Uno Carded*
It’s no u
Badum, dum
I will admit. Pinnochios clever attempts at “lying” always make me laugh a little
This along with the nightmare donkey ogre baby saying "Dada!" and "I've been kidnapped by a monster who's trying to relate to me!" were the only times I laughed in the movie.
Shrek 3 is gonna make me 😭.
That scene was underrated.
the bit where Hook attacks them was pretty funny
This is so far the only movie I have ever watched that I recalled absolutely nothing about after it ended. The second the credits started I couldn't even remember starting in the first place.
My brain refused to acknowledge the movie in its entirety.
That scares me.
Okay but as a kid I laughed my ass off at Donkey turning around and saying "DADA"
Can a movie really be a cinematic disaster if it gave us such golden lines as
"...the only person standing in your way is you."
"Me?"
"Get 'im, lads!"
the only joke that landed for me was that one.
Yeah only that joke landed

I was actually forced to see this one with my camp group back in 2007 when it initially released. Man was it one of the most dragging experiences of my entire life. Which is really sad. I wanted to see Spider-Man 3 instead of this crap.
4 years later and this is still my favorite Schaffrillas Productions review.
I can appreciate now that this wasn't a good third movie. But my experience watching it as a child was unforgettable due to the princess fighting scene. I think it was the first time I watched girls band together and use their skills and were 'badass' enough to actually take on a huge group of knights, and the fact that they were the princesses, who I was used to seeing in a whole different light, was also a big deal.
Sure this scene didn't even end up meaning much to the plot and the princesses were largely forgotten by the end, but still, that made a huge impression on me as a young girl and I will forever be fond of Shrek the third for that awakening.
I share the same experience as you. When I was younger and I first saw this movie, the memorie I had of it was the princesses fighting scene. Now I watch it and realized that there are so much other awesome parts in the movie (that some people may not agree with me).
same for me!
They're the only good part of the movie for both me and my mom. Well, aside from the talk between Shrek and Artie.
I thought I was the only one! 😅
Interesting.
Shrek: "Why wouldn't you be King?"
Artie: "Because Kings killed my Grandma!"
Nice reference to Trolls😋
Jusitn timberlake momen5
Oof
😹😹 lmaoo I cannot with this ongoing meme
*sigh* As much as I dislike the Trolls movies and Justin Timberlake as a person, it’s hard to deny that (depending on the song, as long as it’s not too douchey to Britney Spears like “Cry Me a River” and “What Goes Around Comes Around” which despite its praise from Jonas Brothers haters who thinks they are the worst boyfriends before Justin Bieber, really got worse with age because Justin was just probing himself to be a jealous ex even though he could have had her had HE not cheated on her and stood her up on dates) his music is pretty catchy so the fact that he had no songs in StT goes to show that the film industry had, in a way, about as much respect for him as they had with Bernadette Peters. She really has powerful songs, so why do movies have a problem with her singing? First, The Land Before Time 10 (which, like with other The Land Before Time sequels, I’m mixed towards.), then Legends of Oz: Dorothy’s Return (starring Lea Michele as Dorothy, and she was the Justin Timberlake of Glee, yet even less talented in terms of her vocals being annoying), what else?!

Even as a kid, I remember seeing SHREK THE THIRD in theaters, after loving SHREK 2, thinking about how terrible the movie was. Even as a dumb kid, I knew the movie was bad.
15:51 In Latam spanish he says "You got it I'm the new mascot, so let's go to Worsestershire... let's beat Tabasco and all the other sauces that get in our way!" And that's hillarious
The sad thing is it technically did have an impact on the franchise. It's because of this one movie that Shrek is viewed as a joke nowadays despite his impact on animation.
Bloodhound I have to agree. I've never watched any of the shriek movies but before binging videos like this, Shrek was just an ugly ogre to me because that's how I was exposed to the character: as a joke. But after watching these videos and discovering the beauty that Shrek held, I want to consider watching all 3 movies sometime.
@@papismalllegs8473 I'd say just watch 1, 2 and Forever After and pretend the third film doesn't exist. It doesn't feel like it's very significant to Shrek's story in the grand scale of things. It just needlessly extends Shrek's self doubt arc which really should have ended after 2, introduces annoying characters who never appear again and makes Charming REALLY outstay his welcome.
Well he said it had to be a positive impact in his rule list so no
A BAD impact.

Also the part where shrek runs as fast as he can to the door but seems to go really slow is the realest and what scares me that could happen in a dream lol
That's true
Maybe for the nightmare there couldve been just 3 babies, and the stuff that chases him are the dangers like the sharp tools and fire, to symbolize his paranoia of if he can take care of them
23:02 I agree. And I love Dragon. There are moments in all 3 movies where it has an emotional moment and they are some of the highlights of the franchise. Stoick’s death from Dragon 2… god that is one of the most emotional moments in any movie I’ve ever seen. It was serious, you can feel how everyone felt when he died and that funeral is fantastic. It worked very well and that might as well be the saddest moment in the not only the movie but the whole franchise.
If none of the original screenwriters worked on Shrek the third, then it's technically not an official sequel. It's just a high budget fan-fiction.
LMAO so true
Fr?
Couldn't you say that about Shrek Forever After?
quality wise, yes
Dreamworks Animation Studios who holds the licensing for all shrek films including this one: “am I a joke to you?”
For me, the best scene in Shrek the third is when Charming asks to Pinocchio "Where Shrek is" and he says some complex words in order to not say a lie or a truth, which made Charming confused. I though it was really clever and funny
Thamy Roberta Yeah, That was about the only funny thing in this while bloody movie (even if Pinocchio’s voice gives me a headache).

I remeber legit thinking that the shrek franchise was a 3 movie franchise, and that shrek forever after was the 3rd movie. I wish that was the case
I feel like Shrek 3 was so disliked by the people making it that they wanted to try and fix it with Shrek 4

Shrek 2 : People (and ogres) can find true love with anyone, regardless of what they look like.
Shrek 3 : The thing that matters most is what you think of yourself.
Shrek Forever After : Be careful what you wish for.
The most sad thing is that Shrek Saga is so... materialistic.

i just rewatched Shrek 3 bc i really liked Puss in Boots the Last Wish. But Shrek 3 is so forgettable that, despite being absolutely certain that I had watched it as a kid, I did not remember a single thing about it. Everything I thought I had remembered about it was actually from Shrek 4
