The Spanish phrase that Puss In Boots says after he is accidentally thrown off of Donkey (¡Hey tú, pedazo de carne con patas, ¿Cómo te atreves a hacerme esto!?) roughly translates to "Hey you!, piece of meat with legs, How dare you do this to me?"
I can’t believe it just occurred to me. Puss in Boots’ backstory in his movie does not line up with what he says to try and get Shrek to spare him. So retroactively he was just lying his ass off to trick them! 😂
It always came off like that to me. He just sounded like he was trying to come up with the most sympathetic story possible and was just spouting complete bs.
It gets more confusing when the sequel implies that Puss was in no real danger from Shrek because he still had many lives left and had never felt fear before. I guess he may have been trying to manipulate Shrek while planning to stab him in the back later, but then learned he had misjudged him.
to clarify i think fiona's never actually met prince charming, she was just told that her "prince charming" would be the one to rescue her from her tower. so she was fantasizing about the concept of prince charming moreso than the specific person
Very much agree. It keeps in line with the first film where she clearly has an idealized view of how her rescue is supposed to go and what her savior should be like. It lends some credence to the theory that Fairy Godmother also is the source of the curses (notably Puss says she is talented at hexes, a bit odd for someone who solves problems).
@@Deathisdark05slim chance you’ll see this a year later lol but i think fairy godmother is like big pharma/medical field you can both create the problem/illness (hex or curse) and the solution or medicine (potions and spells)
It also goes to show that the hints were well written. Not so on the nose to make it obvious (I also had no idea until the end, and once or twice even failed to catch it on subsequent viewings because I'd forgotten), but providing enough information to make guessing it possible.
This was the first time in my life when I saw an animated sequel that not only NOT a step down, but actually surpassed the original. As a kid, that was such a huge deal to me, and this movie is still in my top 10 best sequels of all time.
The amount of film and pop culture references in this film alone are hilarious and genius like I finally figured out the “White Bronco” joke recently 😂 One of the best animated sequels ever made 🙌🏻
My favorite is when the people run out of a 'Farbucks', cross the street, and run into another 'Farbucks'. Somehow that joke got *more* accurate over time.
The directors have comfirmed in the audio commentary that when Donkey drank the potion, Dragon turned into a pegasus (for those who don't know, it's a bewinged horse). In an earlier draft had Dragon in it but the directors realized that she would be OP, hence why she was almost written out of the story except for mention of her being "moody" (hinting at her pregnancy) and her apperance in the credits scene. That's why she was replaced with Mongo the Giant Gingerbread Man (named after Mongo from Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles as they both are big, strong and dimwitted). In an earlier version Mongo was a lot more aggresive and destructive like a Godzilla-Kaiju but in order to make him sympathetic, he was made dimwitted and somewhat childish, only becoming aggressive when attacked by the guards at the gate.
A great movie. I love the COPS sequence, where they are chasing Shrek and reporting he is on a white bronco (a reference to the OJ Simpson chase) and then hitting him with the pepper grinder (pepper spraying him, essentially).
I remember seeing this in the cinema with my family and I’d never laughed so hard in the cinema as I did when watching the “Holding out for a hero” and “Livin la Vida loca” scenes. Even the reference to “ET” with the giant gingerbread man saying “Beeeee goooood” was classic and hilarious. 😂😂😂
Also while there is really no such thing as the "perfect movie", Shrek is definitely what I would call a perfect sequel. It added so much to the first movie and became so iconic in its own right, no other sequel in any other franchise comes close. And OH MY GOD THE MUSIC.
the fairy godmother is voiced by jennifer saunders, who is a well known comedian here in the uk. usually seen in a double act with dawn french. (laika fans may recognise them as miss spink & miss forcible from coraline too) so the fact her singing voice is so nice is even more impressive imo cause it’s not like she’s known for being a singer. but she kills it
@@TheMarvelousM to clarify, i meant miss spink and miss forcible are played by dawn french and jennifer saunders respectively (not sure which is which). not that jennifer played both of them!
Hi Mello did you know the man who founded dreamworks was an executive at Disney but he had a major falling out . And when he left created dreamworks Shrek was a parody of Disney . One of the best sequels ever . Thanx mello until the next one 💜
When the Frou Frou version of I Need A Hero came on, I was mesmerized. We were leaving the theater, cause we thought it was over, but that song made us stop. Good thing, too, or we would've missed the end credits scene! I remember my mom taking us to it a couple more times, cause we all enjoyed it so much. XD
14:34 if you pause it Mell looks like he’s copying shrek😂 Edit: fun fact: the Spanish rant that Puss in Boots says is “Hey you piece of meat with legs how dare you do this to me!?”
Easily one of my favourite films of all time, still holds up oh so well. The soundtrack is probably my favourite of all time for non-original ones. The music choice is great throughout. Fun fact: the character behind the bar (where Puss in Boots is first found) has a different voice in the UK version of the film.
7:18 you didn’t say anything about it, but in the first movie, Fiona’s belch was a happy accident because Cameron Diaz was drinking a soda while recording. It prompted Eddie Murphy to ad lib the next line.
20:27 For you younguns, that was a Sanford and Son joke. Whenever something bad happened, Fred Sanford would pretend to have a heart attack and act all dramatic before falling out. That line is what he would use to announce it. His wife had died before him. The I Need a Hero clip is iconic. Shrek 2 was arguably better than Shrek 1. It was certainly more fun.
Back in the middle ages, they had "finger bowls' that you would moisten your hands in and then you wipe your hands off on the tablecloth as a washrag and towel. That's how nobles cleaned their hands for dinner. There were no napkins, you used the tablecloth for that, too. I assume average people washed dirt and literal shit off their hands before they ate, but if it looked clean, it was clean. Back in the day, a lot of food was eaten with your hands, not cutlery because they had spoons and knives, but only rudimentary forks for grabbing really messy things to load onto your plate that would fall off your knife. Often you would use your sheath knife to eat with, there was no dedicated knife on the table. Nobles would wear fancy knives and daggers to dinners so they could show off their wealth with them. Nobles would also bring their own cutlery, the fancier the better to flex their wealth, too.
I really hope this means you’ll do the sequels for How to Train Your Dragon and Kung Fu Panda. They’re all absolutely phenomenal films. Personally I feel Shrek kind of dips off immediately after this film, but the other franchises stay great or only get better.
Wut? The sequels to HTTYD are terrible with villains I don't even remember the names of, and just use pretty lights to look good. Kung Fu Panda 3 is bad, trying to be sweet and emotional when they want us to root for a gaslighter. Shrek 2 is better than Shrek 1 and if you ignore the nonexistant 3rd movie and skip to the 4th, it battles with Toy Story for being the perfect trilogy. Maybe you're just of a younger generation who didn't get to see Shrek until you saw all the movies that copied it.
@Demo dude, How To Train Your Dragon is a better trilogy than Shrek. Every single one of them is awesome with more than just “pretty lights to look good.” Kung Fu Panda 3 is still fine, and Po’s dad is not a gaslighter. He’s lying to his son because he wants to keep him safe. That’s not gaslighting. Don’t just blindly assume I’m a “younger generation” because I don’t blindly agree with your honestly pretty controversial opinion.
Dreamworks may be a mixed bag at times, but its franchises are BRILLIANT! Another great movie *DEFINITELY* worth a watch after this though is Megamind. It plays around with the traditional good v evil superhero stories in a pseudo-parody style kinda like Shrek and is just overall amazing
Ah yes, Rupert Everett. My introduction to that man was when he played Sanford Scolex / Dr. Claw in Disney's adaptation of Inspector Gadget and My Best Friend's Wedding, he's freaking hilarious as Prince Charming in this one and the not so beloved Shrek the Third.
This movie holds a special place in my heart. Not only is it one of the greatest animated sequels of all time, it was also the first movie I ever saw at the cinema. Phenomenal experience that I remember almost 20 years later 🔥
Yo seriously, the Shrek score is so heavily underrated due to the pop songs overshadowing it. But god damn there are several moments in these movies where the music is so damn epic. Holding out for a Hero doesn’t work half as well in that scene without the orchestra.
@@manny7662 Yes it is. He's done a lot of great movies and redid the theme for MGS from Tappy, which made it much more cinematic. It's where I first heard of Harry Gregson-Williams. Even now writing this MGS2 is playing through my head.
@@manny7662 I remember when watching the Rundown with the Rock I kept thinking of Metal Gear Solid and didn't understand why until I saw that it was Harry Gregson-Williams who composed the soundtrack, that somehow I recognized his signature in his composition despite it being a completely different musical arrangement.
I am honestly surprised so little people catched in their reactions that Puss in Boots character is both based and a reference to character Zorro who was played by Antonio Banderas, Pusses voice actor.
It must have happened when Donkey drank the potion and turned to a stallion. Dragon must have turned into a Pegasus and the babies were affected as well. When the potion ended, the Pegasus changed back to a dragon and the Pegasus-stallion hybrids changed to 'dronkeys'.
They didn't have plumbing back then 7:35 and because they rich and royal they gotta act proper at higher then others at all times 😂 love the reactions ❤
I felt bad when Shrek read his wife’s diary. She was a little girl who was infatuated w/ the idea of charming and thought he’d make the perfect knight in shining armor just bc he looked good. Until she met him and got to know what he was really like & why he really wanted to marry her(just like farquad, he wanted to be king). He could never come close to comparing to Shrek, so Shrek held the most power and held the key to Fiona’s heart ♥️
Love this movie. I'd love to see your reactions of the other Shrek films. I agree this was Bigger than the first, and it's awesome. My fav Mike Meyers film: The Love Guru My fav Eddie Murphy film: Harlem Nights
In old movies and cartoons people of the early 1800s or 1900's were portrayed as using perfume/cologne to spray their mouths to mask bad breath for potential mates for when not having toothbrushes on hand, and to my understanding people used to do this. And Fiona dipping her hands in a bowl of soup between or before courses of a meal was an actual civilzed/high society Mideval/Renaissance cleaning etiquette as feasts/meals leave grime and grease on hands and they didn't have advanced modern standard of cleaning supplies such as soap and sinks and didn't get clean like 1st-Worldsociety does today (they didn't bathe with soap often or they used community pools to bathe every so often, soap consisted of lye, animal fat, and urine, and people stunk so bad and were so hygienic they had to mask it with cologne and other perfumes, and rat infestations with droppings and disease were rampant in European cities, and the reason Royal/high class beds had draped canopies was to protect sleepers from being pooped on by birds and bats. Hygiene practices were also so bad people would chew on dead mice as a pseudo medical treatment to certain aliments. Much of society considered it superior to be rude and gross amongst the people. So midevil people could only best come up with bowls of water at the dining table to attempt to clean theirs hands back then.)
I didn't notice until recently, but one of Shrek's fangirls from the barn scene is Jill from the nursery rhyme "Jack and Jill"! She even says she "fetched him a pail of water"!
I think the best part about this is comparing your reaction and BillyBinges reaction and you have two completely different outlooks on how to handle marriage 😂
My favorite Mike Myers is one I don't hear anyone talk about "So I Married an Axe Murderer" effing funny, with a lot of hidden jokes happening in the background of scenes.
Although I've enjoyed a lot of Mike Meyers movies (I saw the Wayne's World movies when I was a teenager and that informed a lot of my early humour) and I really enjoyed stuff like Shrek and the Austin Powers franchise...honestly, my favorite movie of his is "So I Married an Ax Murderer". He had already started experimenting with playing multiple characters in his movies in that film and it has one of the silliest, but still weirdly believable and relatable, premises and I make a point of watching it whenever I can.
It's truly something special, being able to watch someone react to the finale of Shrek 2 for the first time... ESPECIALLY the best rendition of "I Need A Hero" ever!
I think you are the first reactor I've seen who figured out that the king used to be the Frog Prince that early in the movie, rather than just clueing in at the very end. Good for you
Great reaction! Shrek is one of those movies no matter how old it gets, it’s always a good to watch again. And nice shirt as well! Shout out to AngryJoeShow!
As soon as you said Prince Charming sounded familiar I started listening and I was like, "Well, he sounds like Tom Hiddleston to me, but I know that's not him". He's actually voiced by James Arnold Taylor, a pretty prolific voice actor. If I had to guess I'd say the voice he does that you would've heard that's most similar to Prince Charming is probably Obi-Wan Kenobi.
I think Fiona was only told that "Prince Charming" would come for her someday, but she never actually met him and didn't know his name would literally be "Prince Charming", she was fantasizing about him as a concept, not a specific person.
Yoooo I JUST got that portrait reference now! I can’t believe it’s taken me years but it was Dubya that was in that portrait! That’s crazy! Mell! I ❤️ these reactions, too!
I always assumed she became a Pegasus. ... The real question could be... did it effect the kids? And poor dragon... she must have been freaking the heck out.
I think the nutty professor 1 & 2 are my favorites by Eddie Murphy next to trading places but those two were so nostalgic for me because his performance as the Klumps is genius
My theory on what Dragon turned into when Donkey became a white stallion, is that she turned into a pegasus. So a horse but with magical wings. Hopefully after she had a litter of dragon/donkey babies 😅
The Spanish phrase that Puss In Boots says after he is accidentally thrown off of Donkey (¡Hey tú, pedazo de carne con patas, ¿Cómo te atreves a hacerme esto!?) roughly translates to "Hey you!, piece of meat with legs, How dare you do this to me?"

The directors have comfirmed in the audio commentary that when Donkey drank the potion, Dragon turned into a pegasus (for those who don't know, it's a bewinged horse).
In an earlier draft had Dragon in it but the directors realized that she would be OP, hence why she was almost written out of the story except for mention of her being "moody" (hinting at her pregnancy) and her apperance in the credits scene.

The Love Guru, really? Well mine’s not much better, I like “The Cat in the Hat”.
“If your Uncle Jack helped you off an elephant,”
As for Eddie Murphy, I like “The Nutty Professor”.
Trading Places Is A CLASSIC !!
💜💜💜💜
48 hours or trading places for Murphy, Waynes world for Myers
In old movies and cartoons people of the early 1800s or 1900's were portrayed as using perfume/cologne to spray their mouths to mask bad breath for potential mates for when not having toothbrushes on hand, and to my understanding people used to do this. And Fiona dipping her hands in a bowl of soup between or before courses of a meal was an actual civilzed/high society Mideval/Renaissance cleaning etiquette as feasts/meals leave grime and grease on hands and they didn't have advanced modern standard of cleaning supplies such as soap and sinks and didn't get clean like 1st-Worldsociety does today (they didn't bathe with soap often or they used community pools to bathe every so often, soap consisted of lye, animal fat, and urine, and people stunk so bad and were so hygienic they had to mask it with cologne and other perfumes, and rat infestations with droppings and disease were rampant in European cities, and the reason Royal/high class beds had draped canopies was to protect sleepers from being pooped on by birds and bats. Hygiene practices were also so bad people would chew on dead mice as a pseudo medical treatment to certain aliments. Much of society considered it superior to be rude and gross amongst the people. So midevil people could only best come up with bowls of water at the dining table to attempt to clean theirs hands back then.)
I didn't notice until recently, but one of Shrek's fangirls from the barn scene is Jill from the nursery rhyme "Jack and Jill"!
She even says she "fetched him a pail of water"!
This one has the best soundtrack for sure, especially with Jennifer Saunders version of "I need a hero"
I never noticed Fiona doing actual Street Fighter movies in the beginning montage. Spinning Bird Kick into Shoryuken.
I think the best part about this is comparing your reaction and BillyBinges reaction and you have two completely different outlooks on how to handle marriage 😂
My favorite Mike Myers is one I don't hear anyone talk about "So I Married an Axe Murderer" effing funny, with a lot of hidden jokes happening in the background of scenes.
Although I've enjoyed a lot of Mike Meyers movies (I saw the Wayne's World movies when I was a teenager and that informed a lot of my early humour) and I really enjoyed stuff like Shrek and the Austin Powers franchise...honestly, my favorite movie of his is "So I Married an Ax Murderer". He had already started experimenting with playing multiple characters in his movies in that film and it has one of the silliest, but still weirdly believable and relatable, premises and I make a point of watching it whenever I can.
It's truly something special, being able to watch someone react to the finale of Shrek 2 for the first time... ESPECIALLY the best rendition of "I Need A Hero" ever!
Oh my God Mel ! Today is like one year of me being your subscriber. The first reaction I ever seen was Scary Movie and it was LEGENDARY !
I Appreciate you so much bro
@@HelloMellowXVI What happened to Scary Movie 3?
@@АлександарВелики-ч9ш youtube happened
I think you are the first reactor I've seen who figured out that the king used to be the Frog Prince that early in the movie, rather than just clueing in at the very end. Good for you
Great reaction! Shrek is one of those movies no matter how old it gets, it’s always a good to watch again. And nice shirt as well! Shout out to AngryJoeShow!
17:47 I think this is a reference to the original book Shrek was based off of. In the book, there was a wise talking donkey.
"I'm wearing ladies underwear"
*awkward silence*
"Aha-are you?"
"I'm most certainly am not!"
*nose grows*
"What kind?!"
"ITS A THOONNNG!!!"
😂😂😂😂
As soon as you said Prince Charming sounded familiar I started listening and I was like, "Well, he sounds like Tom Hiddleston to me, but I know that's not him". He's actually voiced by James Arnold Taylor, a pretty prolific voice actor. If I had to guess I'd say the voice he does that you would've heard that's most similar to Prince Charming is probably Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Bro you got me with the “you ain’t gon do nuthin, you get the medieval meal!” 😂
I think Fiona was only told that "Prince Charming" would come for her someday, but she never actually met him and didn't know his name would literally be "Prince Charming", she was fantasizing about him as a concept, not a specific person.
Omg, I never watched this movie in English and I had no idea how iconic is the casting of this movie. Antonio Banderas being the cat blew my mind 🤯
What version did you see?
@@spazzyshortgirl23 in my first language, Brazilian Portuguese.
He thought Prince Charles was George Bush!!! 😂😂😂😂😂🤣
smh, boy said it was Bush
Bro The Bird Scene 6:10 Dead Into Wall 😂😅😂😅 Im Dead With You Lol
14:31
Jesus, never saw anyone have such a genuine sympathetic reaction to that before! 😂
Yoooo I JUST got that portrait reference now! I can’t believe it’s taken me years but it was Dubya that was in that portrait! That’s crazy! Mell! I ❤️ these reactions, too!
It's not Bush, it's Prince (now King) Charles. That's the joke, that it's an actual prince
I wish I could see this movie for the first time. 🤣 Great reaction!❤️
My favorite Mike Myers movie is (So I married an axe murderer). Love this Shrek reaction. 💙
I died at George W. BUSH 😭
To this day, I still wondered what Dragon looked like with the potion 🤔
I always assumed she became a Pegasus. ... The real question could be... did it effect the kids? And poor dragon... she must have been freaking the heck out.
26:21 You Make Me Laugh So Hard When Police Guard Chase Shrek, Donkey And Puss The Boots😂😅
22:41
"Hey you! piece of meat with paws! How dare you do this to me?"
8:04
I never noticed there is a single man wielding and ENTIRE roast pig!
Dude's got an 18 in strength at least!
Donkey pulled out that Sanford and son, “IM COMING ELIZABETH!!”
You never fail to make me laugh, Mell! 😄
This one is hands down the best of them. I love it, the story, the message, and you can't ignore that epic "Holding Out For A Hero" song sequence.
This and Toy Story 2 are good examples of perfect sequels! The "I need a hero" sequence is iconic!!!
This movie has the better soundtrack 😂 When she sings Hero, I get chills everytime.
23:23 The Metal Gear alert sound never gets old 😂
I think the nutty professor 1 & 2 are my favorites by Eddie Murphy next to trading places but those two were so nostalgic for me because his performance as the Klumps is genius
True, I just rewatched those two, Ed is a legend
My theory on what Dragon turned into when Donkey became a white stallion, is that she turned into a pegasus. So a horse but with magical wings. Hopefully after she had a litter of dragon/donkey babies 😅
22:38
He said “HEY YOUR PIECE OF MEAT WITH LEGS HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO ME!?”
My favorite Mike Myers film is probably So I Married an Ax Murderer and Eddie Murphy would be Golden Child
