      Amazing analysis as always just wanted to point out the instrumental shrek tracks are also amazing, the song that plays when shrek and donkey are in the shed transforming is a sort of reprise of "eating alone" or whatever, that fucking GOLDEN song that plays when shrek is...eating, alone...and when shrek and donkey are talking under the stars, so the fact that they have continuity between the INSTRUMENTAL BACKGROUND MUSIC only adds to shrek 2's stardom

      We have a problem. Shrek 2 is absolutely the best application of this song, but there is one thing that stands in it's way. Tetris (not the game, the movie). It's application of the song is alright, but it has 2 remixes of the song, which are both better than Shrek 2's cover! One has to win. We have to fight for Shrek 2! Together! (No discredit to Tetris tho, still a great movie)

      I mean... if Fiona is under no illusions over Fairy Godmother's motives... she could be throwing shade.
      Also... what was the likelihood that King Harold had a witch in his court. If all she heard are that witches are magical ladies who do bad things, so being victim of a magical lady doing a bad thing could have made her assume Fairy Godmother was a witch.
      Or, Fairy Godmother gaslit the family into believing that a witch did it. Or she could have orchestrated it and hired a witch to not be technically personally responsible.

    I Just had a massive realization that the muffin man from shrek 2 is probably one of the most powerful/threatening forces in the far far away/the shrek universe. like, the man was able to create mongo, a colossul gingerbread man that a whole castle guard had trouble fighting, and then you realize he made him in the span of a few minutes (the ball already started before shrek and crew got to him). so, he could potentially create a whole army of them and that is hilarious, imagine the rumbling from Attack on Titan but with gingerbread men.

    A small character detail that I also love is that Fiona isn't just some oblivious, innocent damsel in this whole situation with Prince Charming. Like sure, she kind of goes along because the whole experience is new and confusing and she isn't exactly sure who to trust -- but she knows herself and her relationship with Shrek so well that she trusts her gut, while also knowing to wait for the right time to act on her intuition.

    Hey Schaff, I had just finished watching this video when a friend of mine told me what had happened... My deepest, most sincere condolences. I know this probably doesn't mean much coming from a stranger on the internet, and I know many of us can not even begin to understand the grief and pain you are experiencing, but I hope your physical injuries heal quickly. Most important of all, I hope your mental and spiritual wounds heal, however long that may take. You are a talented, thoughtful content creator, and your work has made me smile, even when it was hard to do so. Thank you for giving us the gift of reprieve from our own hardships. I hope you too will someday have reprieve from the pain of loss. Wishing you all the best.

    And what’s great is that through the whole movie Shrek and Fiona still loved each other. They just had trouble getting onto the same page because they were fighting different battles at the same time (Fiona dealing with abandonment issues from her parents leaving her in a tower, and Shrek’s self worth worsening again by being discriminated against constantly), the only thing stopping them from working out these issues together were the other characters keeping them apart. Once they were reunited in the end they were as strong as ever. It’s so easy for writers to just completely break down the relationship in the first movie so they can rebuild again it in the sequel. But it just cheapens the love when they do that. I’m so glad they didn’t go that far for this movie and it just about Shrek realizing he DOES deserve happiness.

    I don't think there's ever been a more influential movie in my life. Grew up with these movies... Loved them as a kid even if they were so deep we didn't fully understand them as kids...
    But as you grow up (I'm now a college student), they still hit. They're relatable. I am an autistic person and have struggled a lot with identity, these movies that were with me most of my life, have always been there to relate to and they've actually helped me through things.
    Through self-doubt, through being unable to accept myself for who I am, to struggling socially, or with relationships, or being alone... Or always feeling like I'm not good enough
    They're phenomenal, truly.

Even if they didn’t dislike Shrek 2, they reviewed it unfairly to make people look like it has more flaws than people see, as if they were any more insightful when it makes them look like the people that look for things to complain about in many DreamWorks Animation movies that they are. Hell, Cartoon Palooza even went as far as to say that without Shrek 2, Shark Tale wouldn’t have been the way it is! Shrek 2 could’ve been a positive influence on Shark Tale to make it an amazing movie, but how Shark Tale turned out executed to be the disaster (no pun intended) it is will always be a mystery since it has all the potential to be as great as people make it out to be in retrospect, potential and nostalgia.

    Seeing Shrek 2 in my local theater in 2004 was the best experience I've ever had watching a movie. The atmosphere was something else. Everyone was laughing so much the chairs got soiled. It can't be coincidence they were replaced shortly after!
    It's easily the best animated film ever made, and the best comedy. I've seen it a few times since and it's still hilarious.
    Shrek 3 is terrible, but I always thought the reason they played Live and Let Die at the funeral was because it was John Cleese's character, and he was in a bond film. It makes a better fit than Die another Day, even if that was the one he was in.

    This video is an absolute classic, the perfect sequel points are absolutely accurate and I'm currently using them in my analysis of Thief 2 in my next script. Love this channel, this video and the Assassins reference.

    I haven’t even watched this video yet and I already agree. I literally tell every person I can that Shrek 2 is a perfect sequel - every joke and scene is efficient and gets information across, and the conflict flows from the first movie in a realistic fashion. Expands on the world building in such a satisfying way. Brilliant.

    Hey Schafrilla, I don’t know why it took me so long to get to this video. Your points you made resonate so strangely personally with me it makes me feel like I was listening to an old friend telling me to never give up. As a theater kid who has been made akin to Shrek and even PLAYED shrek in the musical version has really been a big part of my identity I hold dear to myself. I’m reminded to believe in myself and to listen to good music. Just thank you for doing what you do
