The “do the roar” kid is absolutely iconic.
Do it…
**Licks with malicious intent** 👅 🍭
“I love you daddy” 😂
It does feel like the Where's the baby?" Dwarf.
Do the roar
47:21 *I love you daddy.*
They have an issue of him not having to face the consequences at the end, but the man has spent the entire day with the regret of his actions and the existential dread of the fact that if he cant get his wife to love him again, not only will he die but his kids have no chance of ever existing.
Exactly, he litterly Faced the consequences and learnd from his mistakes..also idk his struggle while immoral felt geniuen , sometimes people think that they were better off before before realising it's just frustration+nostalgia talking
Exactly what I was thinking. People say horrible things when in their in heightened states and what he said was terrible, but he definitely suffered for it and saw the consequences of his actions.
It is like The Choices episode from Gumball, where Nicole recalls meeting Richard and imagining what else could happen without him.
@@FearlessGamer27Not only that but he'd been clearly bottling all that in for a long time. The longer you bottle your feelings up like that, the messier it's gonna be when it finally bursts out.
Honestly, I feel the movie should've had Fiona remember their argument, not just so he apologises to her, but so that she can then suggest they take a vacation while they find someone to watch the kids. Burnout is a terrible thing and there's nothing wrong with wanting to just take a small break, even from your family, just to unwind. It's understable that Shrek wanted just one day to himself, the problem wasn't that, it was getting it from a shady person and not even discussing it with Fiona.
Not to mention the manipulation claims.
It seems like your guys' biggest gripe with the movie is Shrek not facing consequences for his actions, but the separate timeline is exactly that. Shrek had to deal with the consequence of making a deal to have the life he claimed he wished to want back only to regret it immediately when it resulted in losing his family and friends. Not to mention the looming threat that Shrek and his kids would cease to exist if he doesn't fix everything before time ran out
He quite literally made a sketchy ass deal with a known scammer no amount of dealing with the consequences will make him likeable because he made a blantly stupid choice to trust a scammer like how am I supposed to feel any sort of sorry when he makes a choice to trust a scammer..
Hope me reiterating the same point 3 times isn't too annoying its just Shrek in this movie is just blantly made stupid cause any normal intiligent creture would've seen the red flags and bailed on the deal..
@@JesseNightingale I mean people get scammed in real life all the time. Hope you wouldn't be that mad when grandma is left with nothing after giving her bank numbers to the nice man who told her her card was suspended because of suspected illegal activity.
It's obvious in hindsight but sometimes people don't know better. Also rumple is known to some people but shrek didn't seem to recognize him.
@@tristanqr Yes I would be that mad with grandma even more so actually cause it's a real person making stupid decisions that ruin there lives. The only leeway grandma would get is if she had some mental probelms due to old age or somthing similar but at that point she shouldn't be in control of her money lol
I would give Shrek more leeway IF it wasnt clear everyone knew Rumple was a scam artist fuckin Pinocchio called him out for his shitty deals in the first few minutes and Shrek has been around enough magical beings to know when somethings fishy pretty sure even in the scene when he signed the deal he was suspicious then it all just went away within seconds of being promised something he deeply wants whitch should have big one big ass red flag and again it would be more believeable if seemingly everyone but Shrek didnt know Rumple was a untrustworthy person. Makes Shrek look like a jackass when everyone else instantly told Rumple to fuck off lol
Ranking this below shrek 3 is wild
2 4 1 3
This movie is super underrated, and a way better ending than Shrek the Third. Yes, what Shrek said to Fiona was horrible, but come on. Everyone says things they don't mean when they're that upset.
This is a story about appreciating what you have. And sometimes people just don't realize what they have until it's gone. As soon as Shrek sees his daughter's toy in his pocket and cries for the first time, he realizes how wrong he was. And he faces the consequences of his actions over the rest of the movie, thus gaining a new appreciation for the life he had. He was redeemed.
Also, Shrek freeing the Ogres was NOT manipulation, it was a selfless act. He realized he'd never win Fiona back, so he figured the least he could do was free her people, at the cost of never seeing her again and, when the sun rose, his life. He had no idea about the "all ogre" loophole.
Summarized the movie very well, I will always have a soft spot for this movie. Plus Rumpelstiltskin is hilarious.
I didn't understand calling the thing Shrek did with freeing the other Ogres manipulation, because on one hand you can kinda see it as technically manipulation, but then wouldn't every nice thing someone does be considered manipulation by that standard?
It's only manipulation if you do it with malicious intent by trying to win someone over to benefit yourself, but Shrek didn't do that
@@foxdragon2276 Yeah that was an interesting take to say the least. Man accepted he would probably die but at least wanted to free everyone.
@@foxdragon2276 Exactly. He wasn't even doing it to earn Fiona's love at that point, like the reactors accused. He did it because he knew he lost. Fiona didn't love him, and he wasn't going to be getting his life back. Therefore, he decided that at the very least, he should go out by doing the right thing by freeing the ogres.
Saying 3 is better than 4 is insanity.
Nahh fr fr 😭
Ikr lol
Shrek 4 is literally garbage
@@Bman328like your comment, BOI
i love 4's action scenes more. but 3 did better job at maintaining the clever adult humor that 1 and 2 had. also other than the piper, 4 hasnt show same amount of satire or meta jokes on its fairy tale characters.
The ending, when Shrek came right back to the point where he was at the beginning, but was filled with joy seeing his family back again really had me getting emotional. I’m a sap for these particular moments and it is actually my favorite of the movie.
Aint no way y'all liked Shrek the Third more--
This is such a great story about learning to appreciate the life you have instead of just living stuck in the past, though
boring
@@marcellomassucco4449 says you, homie
@@LucasF25 it's my opinion lol, show some respect
@@marcellomassucco4449na, you have to earn our respect BOY.
@marcellomassucco4449 Real rich coming from someone who didn’t respect someone else’s opinion first.
this movie is so underrated, it always gets crapped on but i think its on par with the 1st and 2nd movies, i love it and the scene where shrek starts disappearing always gets me choked up. and for some reason i love the use of the witches in it; they’re like 50% evil minions and 50% frat girls
Well the animation isn’t as great as 2 or maybe even 1 I would say but animation isn’t all that makes a good movie but I do indeed love the story and how shrek 2 looks way more
@@MrCheese69430Wtf you on bro?
Damn you guys fucking HATED this one. I genuinely think this movie is great. Not as great as Shrek 2, but like it felt like it took a more serious tone. You guys got hung up on him saying that to his wife which it was terrible but like, he learned about how wrong he was and how terrible of a thing that he said in anger was. He suffered for it to. Also, I never really even noticed any bad qualities in the animation but you guys got hung up on that for some reason to. You guys are welcome to hate it, but like WORSE than Shrek 3 is harsh!
in our opinion it is worse than shrek 3
@@SortaStupid and you are 100% entitled to that opinion
we know, its a movie lol@@jackbassindale4336
@@SortaStupidso are you going to watch the shrek specials or no?
@@jackbassindale4336agreed. Not everyone is fan of the 3rd movie and not everyone is a fan of the 4th movie and that’s ok. Everyone will have a favorite different movie, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
For example, I know that the first ice age movie is iconic, and as much as I love the first ice age movie, I do love the 3rd one a bit more.
The 4th movie is so underrated it’s crazy. Like it’s wayyy better than the third one, but even that one still gets talked about more 😞
Underrated? Did you read any of the other comments in this comment section? The 4th is not underrated, it's perfectly rated.
@@Nellie-Brooks yeah im talking in general. Like outside of this video. Whenever Shrek is mentioned people only talk about the first three. Not a lot of reactions to it.
Obviously the comments are gonna talk about the 4th in a video with people reacting to the fourth😭
genuinely a banger movie actually. well needed after shrek 3
he didnt turn himself in to make fionna love him, he did it because he genuinely thought he was going to die with this altered timeline being intact, and thought the only good thing he could do for fionna and everyone else was to turn himself in to use the wish of a lifetime to save them
yallre sayin shrek got away with what he did like the entire movie wasnt him facing the consequences of his actions
RIGHT LMAO
I feel they missed the theme of the movie. And with them saying shrek doesn't face the consequences, the whole movie is about him facing said consequences and learning to be better. Saying those things to fiona at the part was definitely wrong, but people say the wrong things in the heat of the moment, not to mention he is also literally an ogre.
We didn't miss the theme. We just didn't agree with you :)
@@SortaStupid so what consequences did you wanted shrek to face? Divorce? Died at the end? 🤦♂️
Can we all please appreciate how good of a Villain Rumplestiltskin is (sorry if I spelled the name wrong)? He never outright lies to anyone, and uses vague contracts to get what he wants. Like for Shrek signing the contract, he never lies to Shrek, he outright tells him he will give him his old life back, if he removes one day of his life, but never specifies which day. So having the day he was born be removed, removes many things from the OG Timeline.
1. It removes Shrek saving Donkey, which leads to Donkey being enslaved.
2. It removes Shrek saving Fiona, and since no one came for her in time, she was a permanent ogre and was exciled.
3 (the best one). Since Shrek doesn't exist, there is no reason for the King and Queen not to sign the deed to Far Far Away, which, thanks to Shrek's absense, Rumplestiltskin now rules Far Far Away. It's such a good plan.
Honestly it's probably best to misspell his name if the legends are anything to go off of
@@silentassason good point. Very good point. At least I have 1 more attempt since I said his name twice.
i think you guys just tested my patience when you ranked this below Shrek 3.
oh well, at least Cookie and the ''do the roar'' kid are goated characters.
Agreed, it's baffling that this was put under the third one considering how bad that one was and how I felt nothing but second hand embarrassment through most of it.
@@MannyUzuki shrek the third isn't that bad lol
@marcellomassucco4449 The main parts I felt so awkward sitting through where Shrek trying to be the king, when he was trying *way* too hard to relate to Arthur, etc. It’s not necessarily a "bad" movie, just not a good Shrek movie.
@@marcellomassucco4449facts, the movie was alright, had issues but still alright, the game adaptation is good too
So you really have to pay attention to the wording the villian uses because his deals are very much like monkey paw/genie rules, where there is some twist or purposeful manipulation of the language. The deal he made with the king and queen, was for their 'problems' to disappear. Well if they no longer exist, they don't have any problems... See what he did there?
The way I look at it, I think his wording of “all your problems will fade away” was referring to the fact in the end they were the problem. THEY locked Fiona away in the tower, and THEY chose to keep her there until someone could break her curse. Fiona is the same person both as an ogre and a person, so it’s not to protect anyone. And they easily could have hid her away at night and nobody would have batted an eye, but they made the choice to lock her in the tower despite a world of other options. The King and Queen were the cause of their own problems, thus, they were the ones to fade away, rumple has his kingdom, and he never ended Fiona’s curse because of his crafty wording. Also we have a king and queen here, they could organize a wedding for her daughter to marry a prince, and if we are to believe whatever prince saved her was her true love as Fiona claimed, then it would essentially work the same.
The fact that y’all edited the angry wig to be Ninja blue 💀
Do you guys get the feeling with does types of group reactions, that they are kind of oblivious to what they watching. By that i mean that they are kind of blinded by each other and because of that the reaction and the movie (in this example) take the second stage, and in turn changes how they view movies. Because their like of the movie depends in large part to "if they have fun with EACH OTHER" rather then "if the movie was good/fun". I don't know how to word it exactly. so what do you guys think?
We had a blast together but still disliked the movie
@@SortaStupidwell yea, but me point is that watching the movie like this, is kind of like watching a movie through a filter, and i don't mean it as only this video and only you guys. I mean all big group reaction videos and not only there but also in some thing like games. For example TheRussianBadger's content is great, but his opinion on games he plays is significantly alter by playing with his friends, like that time when he played BF2042, this game was a bugy mess with unfair gameplay and overall poor developer choices. But he still argued that the was good, because he had fun playing it that one or two times with a group of friends, (and that fun was mostly from doing thing unrelated to the game, but that is just kind of my feeling). Any way ma point is that he feels the game was good because he had fun playing "A GAME" with friends and not " THIS GAME" you know.
Jesus, i am writing to much. 😆
I like the fourth one. This is where things went wild. Do the roar becomes one of the funniest memes. The Pied Piper playing Shake your groove thing to the ogres got me laughing
🎵🎵🎵👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🤣🤣🤣
So just for some clarification, on why Shrek was acting a bit different could be from his own relationship with his parents. One we found out Shrek's father tired to eat him at one point. (in Shrek one i think) Also is Shrek the musical which gives us Shrek's backstory we find out his parents had him leave their house at the age of 7 so he had no true loving parents with him he has been on his own the only way to live was to be scary. IN a comic story we find out that Shrek's parents told him there was no place for any non terrifying ogre in their family. So Shrek's mentality was because he was raised to be terrifying through and through but never to be a loving father. So that's why that fact that he was not scary anyone messed with him so much.
Shrek Mentioned his father in the third film not the first
@@muhdnazmy6010 Hmm I guess you're right. Thanks for the help.
Let’s be honest, this is a better end for Shrek than Shrek 3
no
yes
Maby
Shrek 5 is happening if Mike Myers stops being such a jackass to people
Hum…no it isn’t
You guys are out of your minds with ranking.
yea probably
Do the roar kid has lived rent free in my head since i was a child.
Y'all didn't say this was a downgrade from Shrek the Third 💀
yes we did
these guys constantly shat on ''video-game cutscene'' looking animation like dammit we know.
i'll admit while i think it looks solid i sort of prefer the look of Shrek 2 more, but not in a way that ''bleh this looks horrible!'' shtick that you were trying to avoid.
agreed! I 100% liked the shrek 2 animation but the plot for shrek 4 is amazing.
Honestly, I liked this movie way more than the previous. And I would've been absolutely fine with this being the ending to shrek. But nope, we're getting a 5th movie...
Following the success of Shrek 2 in May 2004, then-DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg revealed that the Shrek story had been outlined into five films almost from the beginning. "Before the first one was finished we talked about what the whole story of Shrek is, and each of the chapters answers questions about the first movie and gives us an insight," said Katzenberg. "Shrek 3 and 4 are going to reveal other unanswered questions and, finally, in the last chapter, we will understand how Shrek came to be in that swamp, when we meet him in the first movie."[11] After the release of Shrek the Third in 2007, Katzenberg announced that the fifth film would be released in 2013.[12]
In May 2009, DreamWorks announced that the fourth film's title would be Shrek Forever After, indicating that it would be the last in the Shrek series.[13] Later in 2009, that was confirmed by Bill Damaschke, the former head of creative production at DWA, with him saying: "All that was loved about Shrek in the first film is brought to the final film."[14]
Josh Klausner, one of the writers of Shrek Forever After, explained in 2010 the script's evolution: "When I first came onto the project, it wasn't supposed to be the final chapter - there were originally going to be five Shrek movies. Then, about a year into the development, Jeffrey Katzenberg decided that the story that we'd come up with was the right way for Shrek's journey to end."[15]
In February 2014, in an interview with Fox Business, Katzenberg hinted that a fifth film could still be made. "We like to let them have a little bit of time to rest," he said of the characters. "But I think you can be confident that we'll have another chapter in the Shrek series. We're not finished, and more importantly, neither is he."[16]
On June 15, 2016, after NBCUniversal purchased DreamWorks Animation for $3.8 billion, NBCUniversal CEO Steve Burke discussed plans to continue the franchise, as well as other DreamWorks films.[17][18] In July 2016, The Hollywood Reporter cited sources saying that the fifth film was planned for a 2019 release.[19] In September 2016, Eddie Murphy confirmed that the film was expected to be released in 2019 or 2020, and that the script had been completed.[20]
The story for the film was written by Michael McCullers, based on his own idea.[21][22] When asked about the script in March 2017, McCullers said it featured "a pretty big reinvention" for the film series.[23] On November 6, 2018, it was reported by Variety that Chris Meledandri had been tasked to be the executive producer of both Shrek 5 and Puss in Boots 2, with the cast of the previous films potentially returning.[24][25]
In April 2023, Meledandri revealed that a fifth film was still in talks with the original cast expected to return.[26][27]

Isn't the 5th movie a prequel?
Hot take but this is better than Shrek 1 but all Shrek movies are goated except the third one.
Opinions are valid, i will always state that. But I need genuine insight on why you guys think Shrek 3 is better, because, to me, that movie just ruins every attempt at humor it has, and its emotional core is very weak compared to 1, 2, and imo 4. Again, not saying you guys can't think that, humor is subjective, but im fascinated on why
I always touch my heart whenever I hear Shrek's daughter say "Thank you, Daddy" when he returns her doll to her.
Here's why I think Fiona didn't get saved:
In the first movie Lord Farquaad sent other knights to rescue Fiona and bring her back to him. My guess is they probably all failed and he gave up and looked for another princess. And Prince Charming didn't rescue her because at the beginning of this movie Fiona's parents were losing their trust in the Fairy Godmother (who was Prince Charming's mother). In the second movie it was shown that she made a deal with Harold, she'd help them break Fiona's curse if her son became her true love.
I think the whole reason why Shrek really wanted to be scary again to people is because he was tired of people not giving him space. He couldn't even go to the bathroom without people bugging him.
For me is 2, 4, 1 and 3 in the end. I have never seen this film with the morals inverted as this video perceived. Despite this, I don't see these problems and I still find the ending very satisfying🤷😅
This is the real Shrek 3 in my eyes
I heard that some people didn't like this Shrek movie but I honestly loved it
Same
He isn't manipulating Fiona into loving him he geniunely was ready to sacrifice himself so she and the ogers would be free ...
I don't get the hate for this movie tbh...I presonally loved it as a kid and still like it very much it's 100% better then shrek 3 XD and I think I enjoy it as much as 2'nd one
Shrek: "You know, I always thought that I rescued you from the Dragon's Keep."
Fiona: "You did."
Shrek: "No. It was you that rescued me."
Single-handedly put this movie above the first one for me
I loved this movie. Rumpelstiltskin was a good villain.
i think y'all took what shrek wished way to seriously. Everybody has wished something really bad after being riled up by anger or in a argument. y'all acted like he wished she died LMAO
No he just wished she stayed trapped in the tour, he never met her and his kids were never born. Oh and he smashed his kids birthday cake and screamed at the top of his lungs at their birthday right before hand. Totally rational thing to do
@@SortaStupid you guys aren’t even trying to hide the fact you didn’t pay attention to the movie. “Give a day to get a day” he wished he could have a single day like it used to be, and was convinced it wouldn’t have any negative effects, and low and behold stiltskin scammed him. Stop looking at the rotten tomato score and completely disregarding it from the start cuz you want to pump out content
@@SortaStupid
The movie never makes it look like what he did was right. But its understandable because we see why he is upset.
We can be sympathetic. He was wrong for saying that to her. But this whole movie is to show him what he said was wrong and learn form his mistake.
Thats why the movie took the time to show you him relearning what he lost and him paying for it.
He then reappears as he screamed and the joy and love in his face is the theme of the movie.
Plus him screaming at the party wasnt even a bad thing everyone loved it. Its him smashing the Cake hurt the vibe.
@@SortaStupid That’s the plot. Main Character makes an irrational decision which is the whole driving point of the film lmao
@@SortaStupidhe wished it for one day but ye
I loved the Pied Piper scene with the Ogres. This movie was definitely needed after the third one. I heard there's gonna be a Shrek 5, so I hope it'll be good as well. Too bad Megamind 2 turned out the way it did based on the trailer.
I don't think I've ever seen Brie laugh so hard before lol.
I'm a little disappointed because this was one of my favorite Shreks, 3 for me is the one that shouldn't even exist, with or without it this timeline works out, I guess except maybe the kids. But after you guys pointing out why it happens, it does kinda ruin the motivation to root for Shrek. I mean I can kinda get losing your temper and blowing up, but maybe not the specific thing that he said lol. Idk for me this one is depressing and kinda deep, just cause thinking about if you're life was ripped away is sad, but you're right he's the reason it happened lol. It was just as much as his fault as it was Rumple's. But he was more, I feel, trying to get a little refreshed and then come back ready to be a dad again, kinda get a little time to himself, like he says. He didn't realize he'd be tricked obviously.
yeah it seems they just enjoyed hating on it
@rosa_stars349 or we just didn't like it
This is probably the one I have seen the most I never understood why people didn't like it it's so fun and simple
Took me a moment to get the scene with the purified water and the witches💀 it’s literally like a hazardous acid that melts them instantly

Shrek 4
Shrek 1
Shrek 3
No way 4 is better than 1 in my opinion. It’s good, but nothing compared to the OG
This video is evidence that Bree and Boom need to start their own debate spin-off series. Give them a topic or scenario, and they battle head-to-head!
Yes!! I was hoping y'all were gonna react to this one! It was a major upgrade from the last one. Also, this may be the comic nerd in me, but the timeline-change thing just has me thinking of Flashpoint xD

It might be crazy, but I kinda get the “looks like a video game” thing, but more in the movement department than anything else. Like they look about the same as other ones, maybe a smidge better, but whenever they move, example Fiona and Shrek sparing/romancing, it looks like it’s missing some fluidity like theres no in-between frames and just key frame 1 snapping into key frame 2. Obviously, the whole movie’s not like that, but it just feels like it’s happening more than it should in the 4th movie of a franchise like this. Either that, or I’m going nuts like the rest of them. Lol
I think the film is overall darker to make it easier for the 3D and it just makes everything look grimy.
I always felt that, Rumpelstiltskin, whether intentionally or not did Shrek a huge favor.
Because the whole rewinding back to the roar was such a good thing for Shrek, considering how mean he was during his talk with Fiona.
Lmao, I personally love this movie more then 3, but I actually dont hate 3 that much. In the end though I can see all your points. Another pointed out that Shrek spent a whole day regretting his decisions. That was the consequence of his actions. He almost died and would of cost his kids their lives. They wrapped it up cause kids movie but it could of bene so much darker. People shouldn't get mad over opinions though, you guys had valid points.
Sherk has his Majin Vegeta moment
This was the only shrek that made me tear up...that shrek end shrek scene was beautiful..i get to fall in love with you all over again 😢😢😢😢..
It's interesting to think about how Shrek's journey in this movie is pretty similar to Puss' in The Last Wish! Maybe that's why it's so good, at least in my opinion.
I think for a lot of people, Shrek 4 definitely helped redeem the franchise after Shrek 3. It's the most emotional Shrek movie there is in my opinion (Puss' movies are their own separate things to me).
But for real, Puss and Shrek both go through their own experiences of mortality and learning to value what you have before it's all gone. And both of which have heavy focuses on earning back the love of their partners (Shrek had to prove his love to Fionna who doesn't trust him, and Puss had to earn back the love of Kitty who doesn't trust him).
In the end, both Shrek and Puss realize they already had what they could ever wish for, and choose to appreciate their family and friendships over a life of solitude.
THANK YOU!!!!
27:14 I'm with Boom on this one. Shrek was put on the spot. Of course, he was going to explain it badly.
Even though the first puss in boots didn’t get the recognition or the best out of them, it still has some sort of place in my heart and part of my childhood especially when you listen to it in the Spanish dub.
Well, it took a while, but here we are, Shrek 4, the final Shrek movie, all that’s left now is the first Puss in Boots… not counting the upcoming fifth movie or any of the shorter Shrek specials because their are a few.
the ending makes me cry every time
Its such a good movie
I get why they are not liking it but this was best watched Shrek movie in a way its a homage to all Shrek movies and I understand the contradictions but I love it its still in my top five of the Shrekverse movies
1. Shrek
2. Shrek 2
3. Shrek forever after
4. Shrek 3
5. Puss in boots 2
This is the first movie I watched in theaters back in 2010 in a 5th grade field trip. Good times.
Calling Crumpledforeskin a discord mod is crazy
13:47 I think the "where would everyone be if..." is so interesting and great
42:03 that's my favorite funny scene of Shrek forever after.
It's unpopular opinion, but I personally agree with Boom. Great reaction, guys!
I have mixed feelings about this movie, mainly because of the reason for why events unfolded the way they did. This all basically started because Shrek missed being a feared and monstrous ogre. But isn't that what he use to hate being, back in the first movie? Yeah he enjoyed scaring villagers every once in a while when they came knocking at his door, and enjoyed the solitude in his swamp. But in that same movie, he specifically told Donkey how he didn't like being hated and feared and misunderstood by others simply because he's an ogre.
"They judge me before they get to know me." was the exact line he told to Donkey in the first movie, and expressed beforehand what his lifestyle was like and how he seemed to dislike it; constantly being feared and hunted, people hating him simply because they thought he was nothing more than a monster. And clearly, as we've seen, he's more than that. So I don't understand why he suddenly wants to go back to such a life. I get he wants peace and quiet, even if for a little while like a vacation or something, but he shouldn't have to be alone and hated again just to get that; especially since it conflicts with and contradicts his whole character.
And it feels like my point is made even more prevalent when Shrek apparently stands by what he said to Fiona, about wanting things to go back to the way they use to be BEFORE he rescued her from the Dragon's Keep. Like, what?! He's basically wishing he had never met his wife nor had a family with her. Yeah ik, people say horrible things in the moment that they'll immediately regret. But for someone to stand firm by those horrible things said after saying them? Especially someone like Shrek with all he's been through? That's not right nor makes no sense.
Sorry for the somewhat long comment. Just wanted to throw my thoughts in for some constructive discussions, or simply to air it out.
I think it's more or less how he misses when he wasn't know by everyone and didn't had to have responsibilities, we all feel like that were we think "man i wish i could go back in the day" because we think things were somehow better before, without thinking.
Maybe he liked the tranquility of it all, maybe he liked just doing a little bit of trolling every once in a while (in Shrek 1 and 2 we can see him running and spooking people for fun)
@@indie_gamer7I don't think it was ever about responsibility in any way.
But I get the idea of "maybe things were better in the past at some point". But to wish to go all the way back before you met your significant, let alone before having kids with them? And even telling your significant other that to their face?? That's just messed up and doesn't really fit well here, at least for this character and the previous stories told so far.
And I get wanting to mess around with villagers and other people from time to time. It has been shown in 1 and 2. That part's fine. But the whole thing about being feared, hated, and misjudged is something i remember Shrek in the first movie had expressed about. It seems like the theme of the first movie was "Don't judge a book by its cover", which obviously makes sense for Shrek but also quite a few characters in the first movie.
@@StargazerZ99 I mean, he did this wish after getting angry, while in anger you say things you don't actually mean or want things you don't mean to, I had that and saw people who said similar things to people and wished them in anger, but after a while felt bad and apologized.
Maybe if Shrek had taken longer to think he would l've gone back and apologize when he calmed down, but Rumpen went to him while he was in this angry state.
@@indie_gamer7 I'm aware of that and I get he was upset. And sometimes, when someone says something out of anger or whenever their emotions get high and tense, when they say something they don't mean, they don't immediately realize what they said. So it would take a bit of time for them to realize what was said, and regret it and apologize for it later. But there has to be a line drawn here for that, like an extent to how far things can be said by someone before they realize they messed up. Like, idk how Shrek didn't immediately realize how horrible what he said was and immediately regretted it then and there, and apologize to Fiona right after saying it. Idk, that's just me I guess.
You are right though, if Shrek had just taken the time to think things over, I'm sure he would've gone back and apologized to Fiona after calming down, and realize how wrong he was for what he said. And yeah, Rumpel took advantage of the situation right away.
@@StargazerZ99You seem to forget that Shrek is not good at expressing his feelings or apologizing and he's also very stubborn.
For me is 2, 4, 1 and 3
After the absolute trashfire that was Shrek 3, this was a pleasant surprise.
Do the roar!!!
Ah roar
Its also so awesome the references to the other movies, its all tied up
I think they didnt like it because it wasnt as funny as the others. Also, didnt shrek also say something awful to fiona in shrek 2? 💀
He did. But they dont wana talk about that
This one's a guilty pleasure of mine. 💚 💜
No
Be proud
happy to see bree laugh like that and enjoying the moment 😂❤
There's no way you put 3 above 4. That's absolutely wild. So I hate judging people on their opinions of films, everyone has their own opinion and that's great but Shrek 3 is one of those films that pisses me off to no evail. That's my anger movie if that makes sense.
Also this is a "i wish you were never ever born" from Shrek to his kids...
All four you please watched Shrek The Musical (Broadway). It based on the 1st movie but have more elements like character backstory. Please watch it you guys
the parents wish was to have all there problems disapierd...and they did..no parents = no problems anymore.... fiona was never part of that contract..its they way he formulate the contracts
17:20 was an incredible touch.
Cookie and the do the roar kid were the ones who made this movie hilarious for me
Shrek nearly got erased from history. Pretty dark stuff.
I may not agree with their take on shrek 4 being below 3 but that doesnt mean that im going to hate them like how many people in the comment sections are. We all have our own opinions so relax y'all. I seriously hope they're not receiving threats, d3ath thr3ats because people would literally go out of their way to do that to people,youtubers, etc just because they dont like what people like like "in my opinion" exist for a reason. Its childish to hate on people over having different opinions like relax y'all and gr0w up.
I love how everyone in the comments is banding together to explain why the movie is better than you think.
When you think about how different Shrek's life is at the start of 1 vs 4, it's understandable that he might have a bit of an identity crisis about losing his previous life as a 'real' ogre.
So when pushed to breaking point at the party he does take it too far, and so the whole contract with Rumple happens as punishment for his actions. Of course Shrek didn't know the reputation of Rumple and was lured into the contract because it was the easy option for him, rather than going back to the party and apologising to Fiona & everyone else. Plus Rumple made plenty of eyeball-tinis too.
It's like how the second film has Shrek take the happily-ever-after potion because he thinks it will make him accepted into society and is easier for him than attempting to make peace with Fiona and her parents. I will acknowledge there is the difference that he thinks the potion will benefit Fiona. But of course the result of the potion vs the contract are rather different, with the stakes being significantly higher in the latter's case.
And I love how the climax has Shrek accept that he can't force Fiona to love him, and that he decides to give up in the hopes that Fiona and all the other ogres live a free and safe life, wishing that Fiona can have the kids she wanted.
Damn, maybe I need to make a video essay on the Shrek franchise, I clearly think way too hard about these films.
The dance scene is so iconic and so awesome xD👏👏✨️
Ok none of the Shrek movies are actually bad but to put this after the third one???? Tf are y’all on?
Bags of Oxygen and a differing opinion it would seem Billy
stop whining lmao
I’m literally not the only one who thought this.
I’m literally not the only one who said this. Did y’all read the comments?
A lot of people enjoying it doesn’t mean we have to. Sometimes we just don’t like things, not like we’re telling people they still can’t enjoy it
7:04 The Goat has arrived
This was perfect to watch right now, thanks for posting
This whole plot could’ve been avoided if people surrounding Shrek noticed he just needs support from his new world. Shrek only became the bad guy here because it all blew up and the lack of emotional support made him say those things, so I understand him. Fiona does best at keeping score of Shrek’s debts while enjoying being a queen of the house. This movie is a real life scenario for couples, imho. Men aren’t allowed to show emotions, as society dictates.
"Do The Roar" is all I mostly remember of this movie. That and people kept comparing Rumple Tiltskin with Dream when he did his face reveal! 💀
the post discussion is so good especially ruff going OFF
This movie is basically just "It's A Wonderful Life" but with Shrek.
To say that Shrek meant it when he had a moment of weakness at the party, is kind of like saying Jimmy Stewart's character screaming at his family in that movie is in anyway a meaningful act and not just some impotent anger.
Though I do agree that the movie shouldn't have brought Shrek back before he smashed the cake and said what he said to Fiona, it would've been interesting if the movie show him apologize to his wife.
she nailed when she said it looks like a video game that is exactly what it looks like
This is definitely my favorite Shrek movie, even tho if you ask me why I couldn’t really tell you
30:43 What happened to him?! Now he's just Garfield!
I’m honestly surprised these guys weren’t on Shrek’s side here
I don’t think anyone that I know in my entire life has ever said that this was their favorite by longshot. You guys are good taking shots at this movie.
