[@235T1NGR4Y23]

Was about to comment this. I remember feeling a rush of adrenaline during this scene in the theater as a kid. I just thought of it for some reason and came to check it out. As the video started I thought I would be looking back nostalgically on how hyped I was during this scene, but instead I just got even more hyped watching it now. The way the music rises as they cut between Shrek storming the castle and Fiona starting to dance with Prince Charming - it makes both scenes feel even more tense. Really a fantastic moment from this movie.

[@bizzaroblake2519]

I also found Ursula interesting because normally a villian hides their agenda or more dangerous ideas and reveal it after the hero made the wrong choice. But Ursula threw it all down not hiding anything. Even demonstrating what happens when others failed the task and what would happen if Ariel failed. Even said Ariel could leave if she changed her mind but tried to test the limits and it worked.

[@alexbolt5]

@@bizzaroblake2519 I mean their both similar in a way. Fairy Godmother and Ursula are both con artist. They both hold a lot of power due to their magic and there’s always a catch that benefits them with every deal.

[@TheGreekPianist]

I absolutely love the film’s message: You love who you love, regardless of superficiality/materialism/appearances. The Fairy Godmother was a vain, superficial sociopath, and what she’s doing here is ironic to the message she was giving Shrek - she was forcing together two people that “didn’t belong together”. Just as she said Shrek didn’t belong with Fiona. Shrek had more love in his heart than her and her “charming” son put together.

[@JamaicaZ160R1793010A]

It was also an anti-capitalist indictment of the hegemonic fairy tail romance and the role of the Fairy God Mother in upholding it. Not to mention, I'm pretty sure she was also a statement on how celebrity culture forces people to fit into easily marketable boxes? IDK, I'm just spitballing.

Literally nothing about this could be improved, nothing. The writing, the pacing, the emotionally taut situation, and of course one of the greatest covers ever written. When Shrek and donkey leap over the guards and the music soars, it’s almost too good to be true. It’s flawlessly realized, a total work of art. The only sad part is the realization that we’re never going to get another scene like this in animation ever again, it’s gone, never to return

[@xLinduhh]

This is a great scene and hard to beat. But I would check out Love Power from the recent movie Disenchanted, which was in 2D animation and the song was sung by Idina Menzel who did a great job.

Jennifer Saunders, mostly well known for playing Edina (Eddy) in the TV show AND movie “Absolutely Fabulous”…and now she’s mostly well known for playing the fairy godmother aswell (but she’ll always be Edina to the world)…she really does fit the characters she plays but I also feel she can be sometimes underrated or maybe that’s just me…in my opinion she needs her name on the walk of fame, her talent is truly incredible…she acts she doesn’t sing so when everyone heard this version of “hero” everyone worshipped her talent for singing as well as acting…also I think it was the first full completed song she ever made so that makes it extra mind blowing 💯❤️

[@bilal6094]

I still wonder how they made the humans look like actual humans and not typical animated characters and why we don't see that in any other movies

[@alexbolt5]

Any animator can make regular looking humans. Just is it can possibly take longer to animate very real human features. That and the big heads and eyes of todays animated characters sell more with children and what animated movies also try to sell is toys.

[@dragonsheen3049]

it's hard to make realistic characters look good. if the proportions aren't just right, it will look uncanny and creepy. it can also be somewhat limiting from an animation perspective, as the animators won't be able to manipulate the models as dramatically as they could if they looked more cartoony. I think it's also important to consider the fact that when the first Shrek came out, it was one of the first 3D animated movies ever made (released in 2001. Toy Story was the first 3D animated feature film, and was released in 1995). The medium was still very young and artists were still learning what worked. Also, cartoon characters are easier to market for toy sales.

[@saph100]

To add to that Shrek was actually being made IN 1995 and took much development because they wanted Shrek's body shape to fit an actor like Mike Myers, especially after Chris Farley had passed away. You can find the early designs of Shrek online with some models from 1998 that were closer to the Shrek we know today.

There isn’t a single part of this that isn’t cool. The dance inside vs the invasion. Mungos sacrifice and Pusses redemption. *chefs kiss*

I am so thankful that I was old enough to register this movie in my long-term memory. 🙌 I barely have any memories from the first one from when I was a child.

This song is a banger....years after the movie first released. I love it! Jennifer Saunders is a great singer. 😊❤

If someone can raid a castle with a gingerbread-man, a horse, a cat, three blind mice, then nothing in life can ever stop you

I can do a lot with a giant that can also be food

I have so many good memories with this scene and the one that always sticks out is when the girls of the Footloose cast in high school were jamming out to this before a show. We were all getting ready, the Ariel was helping me do my hair (Still miss them), and one of the girls pulled out her Beats pill and said, "Hey who's holding out for a hero?" And started playing this version of the song we were all singing along the boys were so confused as to why we were all so energetic.

Old farts like myself think of the tractor scene when hearing this song. 😊
