oh no very well ogre trick what are you doing you're letting me get away I live alone my swamp nobody especially useless talking donkey hey I don't like this it could have all been avoided if they just had sat down and had a conversation I mean I think they're leaning into that a little too much oh I would think of all people you would recognize a wall when you see one well that's your half and this is my hand oh you're half stubborn jackass smelly Olga fine you're so wrapped up in Leia's onion boy you're afraid of your own feelings I heard the two of you talking she wasn't talking about you she was talking about well then who was she talking about no way I ain't saying anything I'm sorry can you forgive me that's what friends are for right right we'll never make it in time I never fear okay I love this Dragon it's just my animal magnetism no one likes to kiss ass all right hop on [Music] I mean donkey should probably tell him before they get to the wedding well he promised he wouldn't could we just oh go on if we need you I wish how about that it's a line you got to wait for the priest is going to say speak now forever hold your peace I don't have time for this hey wait wait what are you doing you already said oh for the love of peace I love do Luck first of all pretty clean pretty clean rude enough being alive when no one wants you but showing up uninvited she is he's not your true love what do you know about true love well the ogre has fallen in love with the princess now kiss me By Night One Way by day another why did the witch put the curse on her they didn't say in this movie I think they do in the second one that explains a lot oh no yeah you're locked back in that tower for the oh my goodness uh Fiona I love you really really [Music] Beauty and the Beast yeah [Music] but I don't understand supposed to be beautiful but you are beautiful everyone [Music] all right we just finished watching Shrek I love this movie this is such a fun take on the classic fairy tale stories of the princess being locked away and rescued by Prince Charming all the characters in this were absolutely hilarious everybody loves donkey everyone loves Shrek Fiona is wonderful and of course Lord farquat is hilarious I really love this movie but I'd love to know your thoughts watching it for the first time I loved it I think that donkey was uh definitely the best character of the whole movie surprisingly very positive I think more positive than any of the other characters and so I really appreciate that because he brought a certain type of energy I think to the movie and so I just loved it anyways he was just hilarious I also love Shrek my favorite thing about this movie was just they didn't just focus on the princess accepting Shrek for who he is they also had the twist of she was the same species and so that forced her to accept herself I thought that was great and then obviously we have the underlying like finding your person somebody that's as weird as you are and what that can be like and I think this was a very obviously exaggerated but more realistic idea of like what happens when you meet somebody that's kind of as weird or awkward as you are my only complaint with this movie is that I think they linked a little too much into Lord Farquaad um and his height it doesn't really make sense to me that they're going to really make it seem like well you should accept people even if they're not normal well simultaneously while also insulting this I I get like he was just not a good person but I I question like what it would have turned out to be if he was a decent person and he was still as like short you know so that just kind of doesn't make sense for me especially for like a kids movie but that's my only complaint it's a very small one that's just my opinion but um and it helped obviously that he was not a great person at all but I thought this was a lot of fun I honestly the princess and Shrek's like Journey was a lot of fun and in some ways it kind of just reminded me of like me and Holden like just yeah I'm an ogre and you're a person no no it's okay it's fine just being like awkward at times and not feeling like you're normal or fit in with everybody else and just finding your person that's all so that was very sweet and anybody that relates to that type of thing it always like warms your heart to kind of see that play out with somebody else but honestly my favorite part of the whole movie was just Shrek and Donkey and they're like adventures together I really thought that that was like the highlight of the movie and I'm so glad that they focus so much time on that there's just something to be said about these two like at first glance it's like a very unlikely Duo But as time went on you could tell that they like balanced each other out very well they did a great job of depicting that in this movie so this movie was uh a lot of fun I can understand why people like it I was a little shocked at some of like the jokes and some of the stuff that appeared in the movie I'm like what is this rated it was all in good fun and I would absolutely watch this movie again what would you rate this one this is pretty high up there I think um it's short and sweet the storyline is just really easy very fluid and kind of has like a modern Twist on like a classic fairy tale so I think I'm gonna rate it I'm gonna rate it in nine this one's up there for me too I think for me I'm at a 9.5 this is a pretty solid movie I love this movie I'm glad that so many people recommended it let us know if you want us to continue with the sequels I don't really know those as well as I do the original uh but let us know what you guys think down in the comments below for now though that is it we
