I literally just watched Shrek this afternoon. While I fully agree with your analysis, I have always seen a glaring flaw in the fairy godmother's plan (assuming that she is the one who placed the spell on Fiona). The flaw is that once Fiona was cursed (she has to be cursed no earlier than 4 or 5 and was not born with this condition because she actually knows the words to the spell) she was destined to always be an ogre. The spell specifically says that "By day one way, by night another, this shall be the norm. Until you receive true loves first kiss, and then take loves true form". First off, true love is a complete, mutual love. Charming only truly loved himself for one. And the only way to fully and truly love someone it see everyone of them and accepting, supporting, and loving them all. With this logic, loves true form is the form of an ogre because only in true love can you see past someone's rough exterior and see the pure soul in side.
i get exactly what you mean, but you know if we do assume Fairy Godmother put the spell on Fiona she could've created the words to the spell for that exact reason! Knowing it won't be true love between Fiona and Charming so she could have had it where the ogre spell wears off ONLY if prince charming kisses her so (in her plans) it would trick Fiona into beliving it is actually true love even though it really is not.
I'm pretty sure this is cannon but it was just never properly explored in the films, it's a blessing to have you hear explaining and piecing everything together
Aww, you're too kind! I'm sure I'm not the first to figure out Fairy Godmother set the whole thing up, but, until recently, I never questioned why they added in this whole extra step with the tower. Not to mention, dragon wasn't there when Charming went through, but what was he going to do to subdue her? That's always left me curious! 0.o
Maybe the reason Charming took so long to get into the castle was precisely the need to defeat the she-Dragon in a way that was both safe and looked awesome [the precise conditions and requirements for this "step" may have took much more time than expected]; as her mother´s whole masterplan (that took many decades, probably involving herself getting pregnant, or adopting and raising a human boy), to eventually becoming The Queen; should not fail because of his incompetence or a lousy mistake. -> Alternatively: She truly loves her dumb son and would never risk his life against a fully sized dragon without multiple safeties in place.
I love the video! And yes I wish it was explored more in the films and perhaps showed a backstory for Fiona, I.e. the curse and life in the tower since she was put there as a child
Yeah, as aged I realized how messed up the whole Fiona thing was. And if we're going by the Shrek Muscial verse (yes it exist) then Fiona was there since she was a little girl and for twenty years. I consider those separate universes but Shrek 2 implies Fiona was young when she sent away.
You are correct! I remember in the play Shrek and Fiona pass each other on their way to their fates as kids. But in her diary she writes about going away to the tower as a girl.
Queen Lilian is a human, Harold is a frog -> Fiona is half human, half frog. She was ALWAYS an ogre (a compatible hybrid); then she got "partiallly fixed" with a spell that _supressed_ her frog aspects during the day [maybe casted before she was born, or inmediatly after (before Lilian could see her)]. The same spell needed for the "turn into human" potion on Shrek 2 was a suplemental magic for the whole plan on "having her living a lie" for the rest of her life.
Seeing that SHREK is the title of the movie, that might "force" viewers to pay more attention to the backstory of Shrek himself. Instead of other characters. So this video is kind of an awakening to see the history if Fiona. so glad that you're peicing iy together and explaining it to us
Also, the older you get, and the more you watch these movies, you find lessons that I do not think were even meant but very important to have. Some of the obvious are "Never judge a book by it's cover", "good things come to those that wait", "winners never cheat and cheaters never win", but the one that I learned today is so profound and obvious, I am surprised that it took me this long to see it (I am old enough to have gone with friends and saw this in theaters. I was in highschool). The lesson was "Beware what you say, one person's "curse" is another person's life".
Isn't is strange? The whole first movie she's just a princess locked in a random tower and no one knows or cares why. Then they show Fiona's whole backstory and it's like, wait a minute...
Don't you remember what happened to King Harold at the end of Shrek 2, when he took the hit for Shrek from the Fairy Godmother? He was turned back into a frog. And he was deeply ashamed of being a frog, which fueled most of his behavior as a human throughout the movie. It was likely that as a frog, he fell in love with Lillian and the Fairy Godmother knew about this, therefore making a deal with him that if she turns him human and he gets Lillian, any daughter he has would marry her son and the throne would be passed down to him. When Fiona is born, I can see Harold initially trying to back out of the deal (likely because he wants his daughter to marry for love rather than obligation), and the Fairy Godmother cursed her so she turned into an ogress at night, and set it up to where ONLY Charming would rescue her. I'm sure she took many extra steps (like, notice how most animals in the Shrek universe are able to talk? What if Fairy Godmother took away the Dragon's voice, promising to give it back to her if she killed everyone else who tried to rescue Fiona but allowed Charming to pass?)
Well, i see Shrek 4 more like a "what If Shrek has never borned? How the world whas going to be without hin?" It's not actually a time travel since the original world don't change. (The only one who changed os Shrek who experienced everything)
The Fangirl yeah. I have to admit that I love movies with alternate universes but I hate shreak the 4th. And the 3rd one was a bit boring (other then the badass princess moments) and over doing the "shrek being afraid of having kids" parts. Also I am glad that I get notified to your newest videos sine you talk to your fans. Whether it is only in like the first hour or so or not. I just love it! And I love your channel! Keep up the amazing work and I LOVE your coraline theories!
I always thought the god mother just set everything up. We see her potions are able to transform people so maybe see cursed fiona so her son could get the crown? Idk i always assumed that as a kid 😂🤷♀️
Lisette Garcia Actually, she was a fortune teller in an alternate opening for Shrek 1. In this opening, Fiona was born an ogre and that was the reason she was locked in the tower. She escapes the tower and comes across Fortuna. She gives Fiona a Beauty potion which has no effect but it gave her her curse as a side effect. And in the final version, some people have theorised she was the witch who put the spell on Fiona.
Without watching the video yet: I think she was 'locked way' as a deal to the Fairy god mother and her son. It would be made look like he really rescued her, she would fall in love with Prince Charming , her curse would be broken and he'd become the next king
I think mainly it was set up as a test. The idea was supposed to be that the dragon would keep out everyone except Charming, and perhaps Charming had some secret potion or knowledge of a weakness of the dragon, making him the only one who could kill him. That way instead of it just being a forced arranged marriage that he knew Fiona would not accept, the king and Godmother arranged for it to look like a romantic rescue. Like what you said but I'm thinking it was not to break Fiona down so much as to build up a fake romance between Fiona and Prince Charming. To make him seem heroic in her eyes instead of as the narcissist he really is.
Wow...I remember watching this as a kid, I didn’t really like Fiona’s first impression because it was the cookie cutter mold of a classic Disney-style princess that’d been forced down our throats for what felt like long enough. It felt like finding a dusty old hat tbh. I only started liking Fiona when she broke from that act and started to get real. Now, reviewing this movie as an adult, I can now see that all this time I was looking at what must’ve been a victim of indoctrination...being brainwashed into believing that being a dainty helpless princess and waiting to be rescued by a prince is what true love is all about. A form of brainwashing that inevitably Fiona finds the strength to snap out of... Also, yeah, the only reason I even like Shrek The Third at all is because of a crush I have on Artie (guilty ☺️).
I never thought too hard about this franchise until recently. And then, after seeing all the angles, it was like, wait, WHO made this tower arrangement and WHY?
What I always wondered was, why was Fiona cursed in the first place? Did they ever explain that in any of the films? Did her parents make a witch mad or something? I always wondered if it wasn't the Fairy Godmother who did it in order to get her son on the path to marrying up to royalty.
I roughly knew this already but hearing it, it simply makes complete sense. Am I the only one who (although I already loved that Shrek came first and made it clear to her of her true beauty) is EVEN MORE touched by Shrek's honest love for her? "But you are beautiful" now seems more powerful (silly, I know) than just a typical love-line.
I believe Fiona was born an Ogre and the king asked the fairy godmother for help to make her beautiful but the fairy godmother had her own plans so she put a curse and since Fiona was supposedly so ugly the king and queen sent her away till the curse can be broken and then the Fairy godmother would make sure that was her son and the son would take the throne so it didn't matter if Fiona was ugly or not
Just starting?! lol, well I'm glad this one won you over! Honestly, I was expecting to log in this morning and see a bunch of "feminist scum" type comments! >.
I'm so glad you have done a video about this because I was also so curious about this. She could have easily lived at home and just only fine outside during the day
I LOVE your videos, by the way. It’s amazing how you spend all this time figuring this out. I think it’s so cool how you do this for us. Keep doing what you’re doing!!! Yay!
I like this. I recently watched Shrek with my friend and we just noticed that in the 2nd one, in Fiona's diary has "Mrs. Fiona Charming" on multiple pages. So yeah, why would they send her away if she already wanted to marry Charming? I guess if they just let her stay and be head strong like you mentioned she would realise Charming is a bad guy and she could do better.
I think it was done because it said "True love's kiss" and if they were willing to endure all that to be with Fiona, it'd be either true love or they're the biggest simp out there.
Not to mention the Fairy Godmother could've used the excuse of locking Fiona away as 'following the story' since that's how she'll get her 'Happily Ever After' to the Queen and King. I would like to point out that since little, Fiona was told since little before she was going to be locked away that in the tower that she'll be rescued by Prince Charming, married, and be taken to her family. And the FarFarAway had been following on what's their 'story', including the villains. Also, Fiona had a doll that only had a 'grateful damsel in distress' quote that she herself repeated to Shrek. A freaking doll! So was already taught since little to follow "her story" if she wants to be happy.
But marrying a princess dosent make you king, you'd stay a prince and she would be queen because you need royal blood to have any sort of chance to be a monarch
I found a plot hole snow white was one of the "freaks" kicked out of the kingdom but is one of the chooses to marry same happens in the musical but she's not kicked out she's in a story book ware she had he happy ever after
... wow, I never would’ve thought that, but it does make sense. That would explain why Fiona started out hoping for true love and happy ending, but along the journey and 2nd movie, she showed more stubborn tenacity.
I'd love for you to do a commentary for Kubo and the Two Strings! Your Coraline and Mulan commentaries were excellent and I'm sure you'd have some great things to say about Kubo as well!
I think kids should look up to Fiona more than other princesses. She's headstrong, she's brave enough to stick up for herself and not have a prince to rescue her. And the Movie Shrek taught a good lesson that looks don't matter.
Fiona is fantastic! I hated how much they calmed her down in the sequels. She lost so much fire trying to keep Shrek happy all the time (which does play into my theory on how her life with Charming would have gone).
Pirate Candy I didn’t hear about them planning on making a Shrek five and I don’t think they respond need to Shrek the final chapter was the end so I can’t imagine what they could think of for a fifth movie.
Please do a littest pet shop conspiracy theories becuase o watched it with my cousin I think its wierd how she hit her head and than could talk to pets
okay I know this is an older video but this is something that has always pissed me off so first I’m grateful to finally find a logical explanation amongst many others who think they’re making sense without actually doing so. HOWEVER I still have the question of WHY they even let her live with her parents at all??? why was she not locked away either from birth or from the moment she was was cursed??
I've said this twice so I know u have ALOT of Coralie thereies but you covers almost everyone but the dad now I know that u have said some things on him but I don't think u have ever actually gone over him becuse I know that he is not a Main character but I feel there's alot that we have never gone over like how when he was about to "die" he gave an eye to Coralie but why cuz u said he was a pupit of the Ebel mother but mabie he was a spirt that had been trapped sorta like the "gost" children or Maine something else but that's just one of the many things that's weird about him I think but Idk maibe I am wrong but I would like to know and I'm sure others would like to know as well. Thanks again bye.
The idea is interesting but big plot hole. In the 2nd movie, Shrek reads Fiona's childhood diary where she mostly talks about marrying Prince Charming so either: A) She wanted to to marry Charming or B) Prince Charming is generic term for a true love which shows Fiona already believed all that fairy tale stuff. B isn't hard to believe because in the 1st movie Fiona is all about the "Right way" went talking about True Love. The two reasons I would believe Fiona would get locked away is because "that's how it's suppose to be/it's a fairy-tale" or to keeping her from falling in love with someone else as she got older. I think the Fairy Godmother wanted to make a fairy-tale story for her son when he married (She is basically the person who makes them happen for everyone else so why not her son too?). Fairy Godmother is also shown to be a believer of the "right way". Plus, Fiona was kid when she got locked away as she wrote about it in her diary. Prince Charming was probably a kid too so I doubt Fairy Godmother could safely tell if Prince Charming was going to be a Jerk 15 years later.
Wait, the queen DOES know about the king’s past. They represent the tale “the princess and the frog”. In fact, the Fairy Godmother helped the king turn into a human because he had fallen in love with the queen. That’s shown in Shrek 2, when the queen tells the king that she still remembers when they used to hangout at a pond or something like that. So i believe that what she doesn’t know is that the Fairy Godmother helped the king become human.
Please can you answer these questions: When shrek and donkey drink the happily ever after potion, Fiona changed too but what happened to dragon? What is lord farquaads conspiracy’s? PLLEASE
I really enjoyed this film and can agree I do enjoy the first 2 Shrek films most,but I don't mind the 4th.I really don't care for the 3rd one,and can'tbelieve there supposed to be another coming out.
I think you should try and make a video about “Astro Boy” it’s a really good movie and I enjoyed watching it. All I can get from it meaning wise is like.. segregation or a representation of how society is divided by class...
Have you made a theory on white diamond or in other cases, her pearl? I heard how whites pearl used to belong to pink. And when our pearl noted" I was given to pink diamond a few thousand years after she was given the earth." Why would the diamonds wait so long to give her a pearl? I think that whites pearl was originally pinks pearl. And. A hint are all the diamonds pearls. Blue and yellows pearls both have their gems in the same location while our pearl's gem is on her for head and whites pearl had her gem on her navel. We can tell pink was a little immature so having the pearl that now belongs to white as her pearl wasn't the best choice. White made pink switch their pearls with our pearl who is strict and cautious. A more "perfect" pearl. And when pinks pearl was given to white, white saw her as an "imperfection" as to white being the most perfect diamond probably abusing now her pearl until she was practically a robot and leaving a scar.

So true
Fairy Godmother may have been able to curse so Fiona would think it was true love
I'm pretty sure this is cannon but it was just never properly explored in the films, it's a blessing to have you hear explaining and piecing everything together
Aww, you're too kind! I'm sure I'm not the first to figure out Fairy Godmother set the whole thing up, but, until recently, I never questioned why they added in this whole extra step with the tower.

Yep I did the production for my collage its 7 to about 20 insaine
I Know It's Today is a fantastic song.
This seems like it could be legitimately cannon and I actually explains a lot about why she was locked in the tower
Queen Lilian is a human, Harold is a frog -> Fiona is half human, half frog.
She was ALWAYS an ogre (a compatible hybrid); then she got "partiallly fixed" with a spell that _supressed_ her frog aspects during the day [maybe casted before she was born, or inmediatly after (before Lilian could see her)].
The same spell needed for the "turn into human" potion on Shrek 2 was a suplemental magic for the whole plan on "having her living a lie" for the rest of her life.

Thank you for this video. I have never thought Fiona could have suffered.☺

I love the first 2 Shrek movies. I love the second movie the most because the ball scene were the Fairy Godmoster sings "I need a hero". Beautiful 👌
We also can't forget the Viva La Vida Loca in the end! :) Shrek 2 should've been the main ending to the tale. It's my favorite Shrek movie too!
Well, i see Shrek 4 more like a "what If Shrek has never borned? How the world whas going to be without hin?"
It's not actually a time travel since the original world don't change. (The only one who changed os Shrek who experienced everything)
I liked the 3rd one tbh. Especially with the princesses being badass
3 and 4 have some great moments, but the story end of those movies just aren't as strong as the first two. All in my opinion, of course.
The Fangirl yeah. I have to admit that I love movies with alternate universes but I hate shreak the 4th. And the 3rd one was a bit boring (other then the badass princess moments) and over doing the "shrek being afraid of having kids" parts.
Also I am glad that I get notified to your newest videos sine you talk to your fans. Whether it is only in like the first hour or so or not. I just love it! And I love your channel! Keep up the amazing work and I LOVE your coraline theories!
Mad Hatter that my favourite part too
2 years later and this theory still holds up. Sweet!!!
Well, they haven't done anything new with Shrek in awhile, so there's nothing to debunk me (yet!). lol
In Shrek the Musical, there's a song called "I Know It's Today" which shows Fiona's declining mental state.
I love all the Shrek films...ALL OF THEM, Rumple is my favorite sassy gay lol
It was Fun to watch
I love how in depth you were with Fiona's imprisonment and how it would pyschologically broke her down. This video made me want to subscribe.
Thanks and I hope you did! If so, welcome to the FANily!
Thanks. Glad to be here. :)
This is more fact than Theory LOL!
I always thought the god mother just set everything up. We see her potions are able to transform people so maybe see cursed fiona so her son could get the crown? Idk i always assumed that as a kid 😂🤷♀️
I love Shrek, too. Ever since the first movie.
The Fairy Godmother’s name is Dama Fortuna.
Alex Downs " lady fortune " ? Funny name lol
I thought that was Fairy Godmother in another language, honestly, lol.
Alex Downs she was a fortune teller, witch, then a fairy godmother? Wow!
Lisette Garcia Actually, she was a fortune teller in an alternate opening for Shrek 1. In this opening, Fiona was born an ogre and that was the reason she was locked in the tower. She escapes the tower and comes across Fortuna. She gives Fiona a Beauty potion which has no effect but it gave her her curse as a side effect. And in the final version, some people have theorised she was the witch who put the spell on Fiona.
I feel so sorry Fiona! :(
Just found your channel and just watched most of your videos. Keep up the good work!
I’m a new subscriber and I must say you have a very pleasant sounding voice 😌
Without watching the video yet:
I think she was 'locked way' as a deal to the Fairy god mother and her son. It would be made look like he really rescued her, she would fall in love with Prince Charming , her curse would be broken and he'd become the next king

To make him seem heroic in her eyes instead of as the narcissist he really is.
But no one expected a donkey would seduce the dragon, because why would you expect that lol
I have thought about this, too. Also, I have wondered how does she eat or go potty. :P
I can’t believe I just found this channel! I love theories! New subscriber!
Wow...I remember watching this as a kid, I didn’t really like Fiona’s first impression because it was the cookie cutter mold of a classic Disney-style princess that’d been forced down our throats for what felt like long enough.

Also, yeah, the only reason I even like Shrek The Third at all is because of a crush I have on Artie (guilty ☺️).
xxxHolic Fan21 I love Shrek the third because they have kids and become a family! 🤧😆
Kiara Thompson that’s true 👍🏻
OR you could just say it's a fairytale world where princes rescuing their princesses is pretty much the norm.
Wow, I never thought about it that way. It actually makes perfect sense for the story. Thank you for making my love for this movie that much more!
I think Fiona knew charming was ment to save her because when sherk ask "oh where u expecting prince charming? " she says"yes accatually"
Oof my name is Fiona 😂
Me two
Fiona Cottrell Angelicaaaa
Elizaaa
AND PEGGY
(love ur profile pic)
@RetroBlitz390 so do i
Wow, the true secret behind Shek is that it was inspired by Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew
This is like, the Fiona side of The Theorizer's Fairy God Mother videos.
One big story!
I can't believe I never thought about it
I never thought too hard about this franchise until recently. And then, after seeing all the angles, it was like, wait, WHO made this tower arrangement and WHY?
That was quite a video. Fiona went through a lot.
What I always wondered was, why was Fiona cursed in the first place? Did they ever explain that in any of the films? Did her parents make a witch mad or something? I always wondered if it wasn't the Fairy Godmother who did it in order to get her son on the path to marrying up to royalty.
Gyarren I think it was that
I roughly knew this already but hearing it, it simply makes complete sense. Am I the only one who (although I already loved that Shrek came first and made it clear to her of her true beauty) is EVEN MORE touched by Shrek's honest love for her?
"But you are beautiful" now seems more powerful (silly, I know) than just a typical love-line.
I believe Fiona was born an Ogre and the king asked the fairy godmother for help to make her beautiful but the fairy godmother had her own plans so she put a curse and since Fiona was supposedly so ugly the king and queen sent her away till the curse can be broken and then the Fairy godmother would make sure that was her son and the son would take the throne so it didn't matter if Fiona was ugly or not
You did a wonderful job I loved this video and now i'm starting to say theory's are more fun
Just starting?! lol, well I'm glad this one won you over! Honestly, I was expecting to log in this morning and see a bunch of "feminist scum" type comments! >.
The Fangirl you don't have to worry i may be a guy but I cheer for the girl's
Wow
I'm so glad you have done a video about this because I was also so curious about this. She could have easily lived at home and just only fine outside during the day
5:17 "you pick!" made me giggle aloud! :3
I was in Shrek the musical I was the pied piper and a citizen of duloc and a bird and tree
I LOVE your videos, by the way. It’s amazing how you spend all this time figuring this out. I think it’s so cool how you do this for us. Keep doing what you’re doing!!! Yay!
The Fangirl your next theory should be about the pixar theory or about the lego ninjagi movie
I'm several weeks ahead right now, so next video is Adventure Time - BUT, I do have an Inside Out video coming out later this month! :)
yay i love inside out
I like this. I recently watched Shrek with my friend and we just noticed that in the 2nd one, in Fiona's diary has "Mrs. Fiona Charming" on multiple pages. So yeah, why would they send her away if she already wanted to marry Charming? I guess if they just let her stay and be head strong like you mentioned she would realise Charming is a bad guy and she could do better.
They sent her away because of the ogre curse
The Theorizer also went through the same thing too; unlocking that Fairy godmother is a gypsy.
I think it was done because it said "True love's kiss" and if they were willing to endure all that to be with Fiona, it'd be either true love or they're the biggest simp out there.
Not to mention the Fairy Godmother could've used the excuse of locking Fiona away as 'following the story' since that's how she'll get her 'Happily Ever After' to the Queen and King.
I would like to point out that since little, Fiona was told since little before she was going to be locked away that in the tower that she'll be rescued by Prince Charming, married, and be taken to her family. And the FarFarAway had been following on what's their 'story', including the villains.
Also, Fiona had a doll that only had a 'grateful damsel in distress' quote that she herself repeated to Shrek. A freaking doll!
So was already taught since little to follow "her story" if she wants to be happy.
So far I've watched this one and the video on Lilo's aspergers and I've gotta say, impressed. You deserve a lot more subs.
i love your vids
Aww, thank you! I love you!
You are dishing out depressing theories recently, I LOVE it 👌👌👌👌
But marrying a princess dosent make you king, you'd stay a prince and she would be queen because you need royal blood to have any sort of chance to be a monarch
Good stuff! With this theory, I can finally look at shrek through a darker looking glass!
The fairy godmother would totally go that. I agree with thix
Nice video. Good costume to
People should just deal with their problems.
I love this video! Keep up the awesome work😊👍🏼
I found a plot hole snow white was one of the "freaks" kicked out of the kingdom but is one of the chooses to marry same happens in the musical but she's not kicked out she's in a story book ware she had he happy ever after
... wow, I never would’ve thought that, but it does make sense. That would explain why Fiona started out hoping for true love and happy ending, but along the journey and 2nd movie, she showed more stubborn tenacity.
Maybe I should appreciate strong willed women more
I'd love for you to do a commentary for Kubo and the Two Strings! Your Coraline and Mulan commentaries were excellent and I'm sure you'd have some great things to say about Kubo as well!
Great theory! You are always so amazing! ❤️
Why are you so amazing at making theories? :D
I think kids should look up to Fiona more than other princesses. She's headstrong, she's brave enough to stick up for herself and not have a prince to rescue her. And the Movie Shrek taught a good lesson that looks don't matter.
Fiona is fantastic! I hated how much they calmed her down in the sequels. She lost so much fire trying to keep Shrek happy all the time (which does play into my theory on how her life with Charming would have gone).
Hmm, food for thought. Especially if you consider the other princesses in the third movie.
"they lock us in the tower whenever we get caught"
But we break loose, and then vamoose, and now you know the plot!
This made so much sense
OH! This makes so much more sense.
When shrek ruins an aspect of your social life, but your still down for this vid.
Loved this video :D I think you're spot on.
Get ready for Shrek 5
Pirate Candy I didn’t hear about them planning on making a Shrek five and I don’t think they respond need to Shrek the final chapter was the end so I can’t imagine what they could think of for a fifth movie.
Kiara Thompson I dont know the plot either all I know is the initial release is 2019
Please do a littest pet shop conspiracy theories becuase o watched it with my cousin I think its wierd how she hit her head and than could talk to pets
okay I know this is an older video but this is something that has always pissed me off so first I’m grateful to finally find a logical explanation amongst many others who think they’re making sense without actually doing so. HOWEVER I still have the question of WHY they even let her live with her parents at all??? why was she not locked away either from birth or from the moment she was was cursed??
Why wasn't the little monsters soundtrack released!
I've said this twice so I know u have ALOT of Coralie thereies but you covers almost everyone but the dad now I know that u have said some things on him but I don't think u have ever actually gone over him becuse I know that he is not a Main character but I feel there's alot that we have never gone over like how when he was about to "die" he gave an eye to Coralie but why cuz u said he was a pupit of the Ebel mother but mabie he was a spirt that had been trapped sorta like the "gost" children or Maine something else but that's just one of the many things that's weird about him I think but Idk maibe I am wrong but I would like to know and I'm sure others would like to know as well. Thanks again bye.
Good question I was thinking that when I watched the movie again on Netflix.
I love all your videos soooo much!
Oh, that is a good/interesting question.
The idea is interesting but big plot hole. In the 2nd movie, Shrek reads Fiona's childhood diary where she mostly talks about marrying Prince Charming so either: A) She wanted to to marry Charming or B) Prince Charming is generic term for a true love which shows Fiona already believed all that fairy tale stuff. B isn't hard to believe because in the 1st movie Fiona is all about the "Right way" went talking about True Love. The two reasons I would believe Fiona would get locked away is because "that's how it's suppose to be/it's a fairy-tale" or to keeping her from falling in love with someone else as she got older. I think the Fairy Godmother wanted to make a fairy-tale story for her son when he married (She is basically the person who makes them happen for everyone else so why not her son too?). Fairy Godmother is also shown to be a believer of the "right way". Plus, Fiona was kid when she got locked away as she wrote about it in her diary. Prince Charming was probably a kid too so I doubt Fairy Godmother could safely tell if Prince Charming was going to be a Jerk 15 years later.
hate the third, love the fourth, great video!
"I only did that because I loved her.", he said, "You wouldn't understand", he said, "you're not her father!"
Daycare Or Dragon Gaurd A Castle LOL!
Because it's a tradition amoung princesses it's explained in the musical
Wait, the queen DOES know about the king’s past. They represent the tale “the princess and the frog”. In fact, the Fairy Godmother helped the king turn into a human because he had fallen in love with the queen. That’s shown in Shrek 2, when the queen tells the king that she still remembers when they used to hangout at a pond or something like that. So i believe that what she doesn’t know is that the Fairy Godmother helped the king become human.
0:25 it's actually wobbly wobbly *TIMEY WIMEY*
I'm aware. That's why it's a reference and not a quote. :)
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh lol sorry Love u Megan ❤

Top ten best movie theories
Well, when you put it that way....
Please can you answer these questions:
When shrek and donkey drink the happily ever after potion, Fiona changed too but what happened to dragon?
What is lord farquaads conspiracy’s?
PLLEASE
That always bothered me, lol! It made no sense and I always asked why they did that 😂
Whenever I see Shrek videos I click and save them
Do a theory about Jack and the cokoclock heart
I really enjoyed this film and can agree I do enjoy the first 2 Shrek films most,but I don't mind the 4th.I really don't care for the 3rd one,and can'tbelieve there supposed to be another coming out.
I loved Shrek ever after
That was rather dark.
The only bad shrek movie is shrek the third
Time Wimey. It's Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey
I think you should try and make a video about “Astro Boy” it’s a really good movie and I enjoyed watching it. All I can get from it meaning wise is like.. segregation or a representation of how society is divided by class...
Have you made a theory on white diamond or in other cases, her pearl? I heard how whites pearl used to belong to pink. And when our pearl noted" I was given to pink diamond a few thousand years after she was given the earth." Why would the diamonds wait so long to give her a pearl? I think that whites pearl was originally pinks pearl. And. A hint are all the diamonds pearls. Blue and yellows pearls both have their gems in the same location while our pearl's gem is on her for head and whites pearl had her gem on her navel. We can tell pink was a little immature so having the pearl that now belongs to white as her pearl wasn't the best choice. White made pink switch their pearls with our pearl who is strict and cautious. A more "perfect" pearl. And when pinks pearl was given to white, white saw her as an "imperfection" as to white being the most perfect diamond probably abusing now her pearl until she was practically a robot and leaving a scar.
