Better than the 3rd? First time watching Shrek Forever After movie reaction

[@BaddMedicine]

Much better than the 3rd film. And if this was going to be the last one, at least it went out on a good note. What was you reaction? How would you rank the Shrek films?

Some say it is out of character for Shrek to want to go back to how things were before. But I think it was perfectly in character. Because Shrek enjoyed the thrill of being able to scare and prank people. He just didn’t like the hatred involved in it.

[@panashe5268]

I think it goes deeper than just pranking people. Shrek loved the respect that came with being feared and was a huge introvert, comfortable with his own presence. Going from that to having a wife, best friend and a group of external friends overnight (and eventually having children) probably felt like a huge change to someone who figured they’d spend the whole of their existence alone.

[@traydevon]

Shrek never wanted to lose what he had. He just wanted a momentary break from it all, so for people to say he wanted to go back to how things were before is a gross oversimplification of what was actually going on with him.

[@-12Sided]

@@traydevon Yeah that’s exactly right. It’s much more subtle than just “I’m upset with my new routine-based life, I want EVERYTHING from before”. I can relate to Shrek very deeply about living a very routine, simple life. And breaks from it all are NECESSARY.

[@BarnabasTheBarmy]

The biggest takeaway for me from this movie is... we are so used to seeing our wife/husband/mom/dad in a certain way, that we never stop to think... how different they could have turned out in other circumstances. Shrek thought as long as he found Fiona in this new universe, she would be exactly the same wife/mom he left behind...he could kiss her and all would go back to normal. But here she was, kicking ass as an absolute warrior queen! This is what the sweet, motherly Fiona was capable of - under different circumstances. Just a reminder to not underestimate the people in our lives.

[@KimC657]

Yes! I absolutely love that they went this route. Also, I feel like it is absolutely believable that Fiona would become this bad a** leader of the resistance under these circumstances.

[@Kenny-ep2nf]

It's all about circumstance, now Shrek knows that his wife had it in her to be this way all along but didn't have to resort to it since he saved her. He finally got a new outlook on his loved ones

This movie is very underrated it's made to fix Shrek 3 and complete the franchise the proper way it subverts the whole story by doing the reverse of the first film which is honestly beautiful and it puts Shrek through a new arc to appreciate what he had and appreciate who he is also as an Ogre I love this film and people need to appreciate how good it is and why it's a perfect finale and story for Shrek

The Pied Piper's flute music is done by the late Jeremy Stieg, who was a jazz flautist and was the son of William Stieg, the guy who wrote the original Shrek book, which the first movie is based on.

[@skyofthelivingdead]

He was also the actual flutist from Beastie Boys’ Sure Shot (well, it was his song that they sampled for it). So it was perfect to have him play that song.

[@House0fHoot]

I like that Fiona *saved herself* in the alternate timeline. She was a badass with her own volition. Shrek finally realised that she didn’t need him to thrive, & she loved him for that 💚

[@1x4]

I thought they established that well in the first film. She waited to be rescued by choice. This version annoyed me.

[@pinelopiliraki3660]

@@1x4 I didn't find it unrealistic that she stopped believing in some prince charming that would eventually rescue her. However, it does bother me that there were so many ogres around in this timeline but we never got to see any in the other movies.

[@LJMadrigalMusic]

In Shrek’s defense, his craving to go back to his past self is understandable. Fiona may have known that ogre life even before Shrek saved her, but Shrek had to learn all these human traditions just for Fiona and all these factors pressured him to having a mental and emotional breakdown. Now, the way people treat him hurt his ego as someone who once was feared throughout. I can’t even see the respect people should give him or maybe that’s just how the people in the Shrek verse behave.

[@TheLoneReni]

I actually thought this movie was always an interesting idea for Shreks character. He never asked for a lot of the stuff that happened starting with the first movie and things that kept happening so very very quickly. So many changes and going from near solitude to surrounded by people without a moments privacy is a shock to the system. I like that he took what he had a little bit for granted because it came to him so quickly and usually it was the result of a provlem forced onto him that he needed to fix. I like how throughout this movie he was forced to realize what he had and what really held value and made him happy. If there was every going to be a story afyer Happily Ever After I definately imagine this to be what happens.

[@Imaginarium_72]

"You know what the best part of today was ? I got the chance to fall in love with you all over again" Man, this line is so heartbreaking. What a beautiful movie ❤

[@Kenny-ep2nf]

and it's very true as well because Shrek really did end up appreciating the fact that he got to meet her

[@traydevon]

Mike Myers' voice acting in this movie was stellar. His line delivery in some of those one on one moments is the reason this movie punches me emotionally. For example, when he's telling Fiona all the things he knows about her, his voice cracks. If that voice crack was intentional, it was masterful. If it was unintentional, it was naturally perfect. He was desperate and frustrated. It makes sense to crack like that. The animation, soundtrack, and Myers' voice work...all perfect in that scene. And the way they frame the shot when he ends with, "...is because you've never been kissed...well, by me." 👌

[@Kenny-ep2nf]

Indeed, those actors know exactly what they're doing

[@bored_potato]

I've said it once, I'll say it again. If Shrek 3 hadnt flopped so hard, Shrek 4 would have been just as appreciated as the first two. While it's not perfect, it definitely feels a lot more genuine and heart-wrenching than the third one.

[@supersucks]

I liked Charming as a villain its just that he wasn’t fleshed out as a character in 3 his revenge story could’ve been better and they focused more on Arthur than the core characters imo

[@gintokisstrawberrymilk]

yess. I loved Shreks story arc about him coming to terms with being a dad, and finding out that he doesn't have to be like his own father. I know some people don't like Arthur, but I thought he was a great addition to Shreks arc. Though the best part of the movie (for me) was DEFINITELY the princesses. I've always liked the third, but now that I'm older I can understand why some may not love it. Charming is pretty mid, and the whole thing about creating a play was very boring. I think the main cast makes up for it though.

[@gabbodelaparrawrites]

This is actually my favorite of the bunch. The franchise is known for subvert the expectations but this turns all that on our heads by twisting all the already subverted expectations even more.

My favorite thing about this movie is that they're willing to tackle the topic of every relationship no matter what is going to have some issue somewhere... It might not even be a big issue however enough small issues or the same small issue repeating over and over and over again or the inability to convey what they need while adapting to change or whatever but even if it is true love that doesn't mean there won't be issues and I love that a series that started out as a flipping on the head of classical fairy tales goes on to flip the ending of happily ever after to Yes it's happily ever however that doesn't mean it doesn't have its problems or it's issues.

Funny story for you Mason, since you mentioned Fifi. Geese can become very defensive and territorial. To note; I am of a woman of a notedly "petite" stature - for context. My daily shortcut to work in my youth was through a local park past "the duck pond" - sometimes I stopped and fed them. BIG FOOLISH MISTAKE - forgive me, I was young. :P During migratory season geese overran the duck pond, and they learned from the ducks - humans = food, and small humans = easy targets. I don't wish to judge but you gentlemen seem well fit. However, when a small woman of barely over 5' tall and 110lbs catches the eye of a large angry goose it is time to flee whilst flipping the bird "the bird" XD Please note I walked and/or ran - I had no shelter or vehicle to flee to, lol

When I said Shrek's movie was relevan and relatable even through the whole 8 years from the first movies, is that the story progressed too with our real life. At the start, some audience probably still single back then, trying to know themselves, still in love. During the middle (2nd and 3rd movie), probably got some fight going on in our relationships, that's normal, and who knows, in that 8 years, some of us the audiences already married and got children of our own, Shrek's movie is still relatable. That' what I love about this movies. And to me, they didn't change Fiona that much, she is still the dependable princess that we all love. She did the same in the third movie, I think, where she be the leader of all the princesses, and now a leader of an ogre, but the most important message is, she's still waiting for true love.
