Emperor's new grove is underrated? Huzzah! A person of quality!
I stan yzma
The Emperor’s new grove is just an hour and a half of Kuzko picking fruit in his newly constructed orchard
I'm glad that "I'm making waffles!' line is iconic to other people too! I specifically remember hearing it in the trailer for the movie when it was still new and I was like 5 or 6. My parents recorded Shrek off the TV onto VCR and I watched it sooooo many times
Bruh, me and my siblings memorized and danced the karaoke dance party EVERY TIME we watched this. And I was born after this movie came out so I literally grew up dancing it 😂
I think Farquaad chose mama bear for his rug because baby bear was too soft and papa bear was too gritty
Mama bear was just right-
And that version of Hallelujah (the John Cale one) is my favourite cover of the song. Its so good.
Do you know if it's on Spotify?
It is, Lilly. It's on a (rather brilliant) soundtrack album to something called Basquiat.
Rufus Wainwright does my favorite version.
That's what i love about Dreamworks, they don't only make it entertaining for kids but also adults🙌
Fun fact Chris Farley was initially hired to do the voice Shrek, and had recorded nearly all the dialogue in this film but unfortunately before completing this movie he passed away so DreamWorks recast the role to Mike Myers who insisted on a complete script rewrite and to leave no traces of Farley's version of Shrek. In my opinion this film is still my one of my favourite childhood animated movie, and then I'm gonna make some waffles, never gets old.
Cameron Diaz actually retired from acting, and just raising her child
shes one of the best leading females in late 90's to late 2000's films ..she had real charisma
I'm like that with Lion King and Harry Potter I know like every line. Don't need to apologize ever the movie is a classic so i totally understand where you are coming from. Keep up the hard work; your channel is awesome!!!!
Don't feel bad for being unable to not quote this movie, you're not the only one.
Shrek 2 is even better.
Anyone's entitled to their own opinion
...but fuck you, it's not
Damn, who hurt you?
Ryan's Channel Sorry, lockdown can be tough
One of the greatest Movie sequels!
Nico Robledo whats lockdown?
Thank you so much for the Babe reference! It’s one of my all time favorite childhood movies. I must’ve watched that movie 50 times on VHS 📼 back in the mid to late 90’s. You don’t see Eddie Murphy in movies anymore because The Hangover broke Beverly Hills Cop’s box office record for the highest grossing R rated comedy. LOL that’s just my theory. 😂
I'm both happy AND traumatized at the same time. I love Shrek 1 and 2, but what they've done to Shrek afterward, and I'm not talking about 3 and 4, but "Shrek is love, Shrek is life?" nightmares. bloody nightmares!!! but great video, and you remember the quotes a lot better than I do. lol
Yeah
Y'all never know the joy of watching this movie with mexican spanish dub 👌🏽
The nostalgia is heavy and i'm loving it
08:31 Tarzan? That's my best guess.
11:28 I got so scared of the dark because of the movie Darkness Falls, ever since I was 6.
"The Love Guru" pretty much destroyed Mike Myers' career...lol.
I saw that once. Not a very memorable movie.
I regret seeing the movie to this day. Justin Timberlake's French Canadian accent was just terrible in that film.
Never heard of it. I think he mostly just retired from doing as many movies.
Eddie Murphy has been on the down-low for years, but he made a proper comeback with "Dolemite Is My Name" last year. AWESOME movie, incredible performance, & worthy of a react, especially if you don't know about the real Dolemite.
7:11 Downside of the army - your captain gives you an order to assemble you sadly have to obey
You know when you asked where have you seen the chain tangling thing before... That reminded me of Garfield when he tangled the dog in the first movie, just walking around and messing with the dog and just as the dog gets angry and is ready to attack... BOOM, he is tangled, no moving 😂
Just saying, the musical is AWESOME!!
😂😂 colour me impressed. You've got so much of that dialogue in your head its actually brilliant. And you quoting the movie and singing along is in no way annoying, it actually made it better. This makes me wanna watch shrek without the commentary now 😄👍
Oh and mike Myers was in a fairly recent film called terminal, no idea how big his role was and he may be doing another Austin powers 😁
Haha trust me there was a lot more quoting and singing cut out. This video would go for 90 mins if I included it all 😂
@@nicsandnacs hahaha oh that's brilliant 😂😂. It'd be a full movie 👌
You want to talk morbid, there's an easter egg in How to Train your Dragon where there's a dragon that is carrying a dead Gloria (from Madagascar) on the way to the nest. 😬😶
Holy shit! That’s insane 😳
@@nicsandnacs how about Casper 1995
Gingie didn't grow his legs back, hes on crutches later and his legs are "stitched" back with frosting.
You did an awesome commentary on Shrek. Mike Meyers took a break from Hollywood after his last movie The Love Guru bombed horribly..supposedly there's talks about another Shrek movie, and possibly another Austin powers movie.
Fun Fact: Dreamworks was founded by 2 guys that used to work at Disney but left because they felt Disney didn't appreciate them enough. So they started Dreamworks together
For the absolute pinnacle of Dreamworks films please watch The Prince of Egypt it was their first animated film and their best imho
You’re forgetting about Antz but to be honest that’s a good thing
Also the How To Train Your Dragon trilogy is arguably one of Dreamworks’ best (I’m biased though lmao)
alwaysahiccupandastrid I really like 1 and 2 but 3 just ruined everything they built up
You can never think of dreamworks without thinking of Shrek also. That’s how iconic he is
This is probably my favorite video from you. X) I loved your reaction to Shrek and how much you quoted everything. Shrek 1 is actually one of the very first films I’ve seen in a theater and I was about 5 when it came out.
haha thanks :) probably one of my favourites to film
MORE SHREK!
In the times when Robin Hood was supposed around for: he was a nobleman and noblemen spoke French
Something tells me you have watched this movie more than once
Maybe just a couple times 😂
This was my movie!! Before I could actually use words, I watched this movie. Best movie ever!!
Nice this is a great throwback. I haven't seen for awhile now. Man though you really do know this movie...nice quoting..
haha yeah I've seen it maybe one too many times
The forehead bone, or "frontal bone" of the skull, is the hardest bone in the human body. If you headbut someone in the face with your frontal bone, you may at most receive a split in your forehead skin along with a little bit of pain. Your victim however may likely receive multiple broken bones in the cheeks, nose, and upper and lower maxilla (to include teeth). I think you know who the winner of this fight will be. However, if you headbut someone else's forehead, you'll probably end up making each other mad, at which point things will likely escalate to knives, guns, or small tactical nukes. So, if yjou headbut someone, its all about your aim. Sorry. This is probably way more information than you wanted.
haha thank you for the detailed description, got my daily fact ticked off my list :)
Interesting. In my family it was common to headbut softy others' foreheads or touch them (yes, goat style). Not as a sign of aggression, as not a threat.
I didn't know you could attack people using it, I thought our natural weapons were our fists (well, I guess you could bite someone, but it's weird).
Like the video
As regards to asking about headbutts, you don't aim for the head, you aim for the bridge of the nose and hit the cartilage.
You are awesome and hilarious. Thanks for suffering through the bad movies with us and making the good films better.
You reminded of Robert Neville in I Am Legend this entire video, haha.
I actually played Donkey at my primary school in a play and my tail came off. Oh the cringe... you should do Shrek 2 as well it you have the time. Personally my favourite of the franchise.
James Darkholme holy crap that would be hilarious to see, sorry 😂
Shrek is a religion
i feel like you should be a voice of some iconic character in Disney or any animation movie
Dreamworks has some bangers of their own:
- Shrek
- How To Train Your Dragon (10000/10)
- Kung Fu Panda (1000/10)
- Madagascar
- Boss Baby
- Megamind
- Bee Movie
Just to make your childhood movies even funnier as an adult, Lord Farquaad was an inside joke that got by the censors. it's actually pronounced Fu**wad. I really enjoy your vids!
Cameron Diaz retired I think, or is taking a break. Family time.
I get mild ptsd from this movie, because ALL throughout middle school this and second hand lions were literally the ONLY movie our teachers would play, it's almost like they were unaware that different movies existed, it got so bad that our English teacher offered to play a movie during study hall,and when she put in shrek there was such a loud uproar of complaining from the class she turned around and said "WOULD YOU ALL JUST RATHER SIT IN SILENCE!? ". I'm sure she expected everyone to so no and get all scared, imagine her face when she heard a mighty collective "YES!!!" From pretty much the entire classroom 🤣.we sat in happy silence that study hall.
Your reactions looks like mine when I see Disney movies or DreamWorks!!😂😂😂
7:27 they key to headbutting is practice and squinting as hard as possible, which tightens the muscles of your T-zone (eyebrow-ridges, bottom of the forehead and nose) and cushions the impact of the headbutt and reduces your daze.
The only way to watch this movie is quoting the entire thing while annoying everyone around you! You did 👍
Initially Mike Myers did Shrek with a Canadian accent but didnt like the sound of it so he went to Steven Spielberg and asked him to redo it with the Scottish accent.
This was also the first ever animated film to win the Oscar for Best Animated Film.
The thing about headbutts is that they're not supposed to hit the other person's forehead, its supposed to hit their nose. The whole goal of the headbutt is to break the other person's nose and little else.
10:47 The song in that part is called "My Beloved Monster..."
I know, somewhere out there, there's someone whos been looking desperately for this song... This is for you, my friend...
Enjoy the song.
OMG the thing about Gingy’s legs - if you look on the new legs there are ”icing stitches”
I WANT MY OWN TOOTHLESS TOO!!!
HUMAN FOREHEAD is one of the thickest parts of the body, you can easily use it as aweapon on softer targets like the human nose. its a great first strike option as most people aren't expecting it.
it’s probably best to not feel comfortable being outside alone at night - sadly there’s a lot of crazies who take advantage of people in those situations
Headbutts are for breaking the nose, and doing so should (ideally) hurt them more than you
I loved Shrek as a kid. And like everyone knew that I did. Family members, friends. Well for one of my birthdays, I got 6 copies of Shrek 2 on dvd. 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder if the film would have done as well had Chris Farley been able to record all of his lines? He was originally cast as Shrek, but after his death, they decided to recast the role with Mike Myers, and have him use a Scottish accent for the character. I think he used a similar one in the 90s film "So I Married an Ax Murderer".
People always point out how messed up this movie because of all the animals that died, fair enough but the really messed up thing in the movie is the fact that Fiona marries an ogre, she may be cursed to look like an ogre but she is still human. Slightly less messed up is that donkey hooks up with a dragon. So don't hurt poor little animals but bestiality is A-OK.🤔
Cameron Diaz has been in Knight and Day, The Holiday. Mike Myers was in Inglorious Bastards, hasn't done anything else to the best of my knowledge since then. Eddie Murphy I haven't got a clue about
this was a book! I remember my teacher reading it to us in like the 2nd grade
I know this movie word for word too.
I spent a year in Europe doing my OE the DVD player in my laptop was region locked so I'd brought a bunch of DVDs to keep me entertained (this was way back in the pre Netflix dark ages) but my luggage was stolen off the carousel the day I arrived leaving me with just my carry on which had my laptop and the 1 DVD that was still in the drive...Shrek...I must have watched it almost 300 times that year
I even used my word perfect knowledge of the English dialog to watch it in French to learn the language...and again in Italian.
4:46 the muffin man used frosting to sort of "stitch" legs into him
10:23 fun fact: in the norwegian dub, Donkey straight out says "Det det er sex-trakkasering!", which literally translates to "that's sexual harassment"😂🤣
You HAVE to watch Shrek 2!! Mainly because I've always said the Fairy Godmother looks like Meryl Streep and I need confirmation.
I always assumed they just baked him some more legs he is a cookie
If I’m honest? I enjoy you following along with the dialogue. :-)
Came back to see you dubsmash donkey song. lol
random thing for me to comment.
But my brother always says that when people butt heads, there is always a winner and a loser.
Lmao and by always I mean he said this as my neice happily strolls away from my bawling nephew
🎼Shine your shoes, wipe your..... FACE!🎼😂😂
I don't want you to stop singing. Ever! It's wonderful!🤗😍
I was 12 when Shrek first released😳
How about you?
This movie was my first theater experience. I was 11 when it came out.
The chain thing happened in 'Tarzan' when Tarzan was running away from a snake and the snake got tangled up in its own trail so when he stopped, it couldn't reach its jaw to snap at him🤔
Come to Holland (when the Rona is done) Come to Holland, come to the Efteling. It's much more whimsical then Disneyland and it's smaller and more comfy. Trust me on this one. I've had American friends come to the Efteling and them being like "this is so much cooler than Disney Land" and on weekdays when the schools are going, it can be so nice and calm some days, it's the best
Since Charlie's Angels, Camaron Diaz was in "Knight and Day" with Tom Cruise. She was pretty good in it.
I'm still afraid of the dark and I am 28
11:07 I love their chemistry
I can't imagine a Shrek reboot at this point or that it would be any good if it somehow happened.
Shrek was the first movie to win best animated film defeating Cars by Pixar. They originally wanted Chris Farley as Shrek but he died so Mike Myers was the best alternative option
Gingy reattaches his legs with icing 😂
@Nic&Nacs - oh kay. The Donkey said "poppies", which are the flowers that morphine comes from. Ooops, I mean heroin. Both. They were actually sunflowers. It was a terrible joke.
For anyone wondering, you can watch the Shrek Musical on American Muscial.
He's in the new movie Armsterdam and he's in that Netflix show The Pentaverate and guess who had a cameo in that. I'd rather not spoil that but I've a clip of it on TH-cam
This movie was the first movie to win the oscar for best animated film beating out Cars that year
You are just like me lol... i recited almost every quote from this legendary movie growing up.
They originally wanted Chris Farley to play Shrek but he died so Mike Meyers was the next obvious choice
Eddie Murphy is so over the top in this lol 😂
its rumored a shrek 5 is comin soon whether done by dreamworks or illumination studios
You should definitely watch Sinbad from Dreamworks as well. It's one of my favorite movies from this studio. It is so good! The characters and animations are gread, the score is amazing !!! One of the best animated movies for sure !
If they ever do a reboot it would need to be live action.
I could watch you read war and peace and I still would be entertained.
They "iced" his leg. Gingy 😂
This movie stars Mike Meyers and Cameron Diaz with John Lithgow as Lord Farquaad
Good stuff!
Please make a video with Emperor's New Groove!
Shrek 1 and 2 great, 3 is trash, we pretend 3 doesn't exist. but 4 is actually not bad, I'd even say its good.
Shrek was a book but the title was Shrek!
best reactor.
Cameron Diaz was in The Counsellor, one of those stylish crime movies.
A parfait? Do you not have Dairy Queen out there? A peanut buster parfait. It’s a sundae. Very popular.
There are no Dairy Queens in the UK.
2wingo she’s an Aussie isn’t she?
No dairy queen in Australia either. Or at least not that I've seen
No Dairy Queen for us Aussies...
Nics&Nacs oh boo..... well, if there is an equivalent for you all? I hope you get to enjoy parfait!! 😋
This movie came out when I was a baby
Was the chain thing you couldn't remember from the book 'Against a Dark Background' by Iain M. Banks? 🤔
You need to enjoy this movie!!!! I was 14 years old watching this.
