If you're interested in a animated movie kick, might I suggest the following animated movies: Charlotte's Web (1973) Wizards (1977) The Hobbit (1977) Heavy Metal (1981) The Last Unicorn (1982) The Flight Of Dragons (1982) The Secret Of NIMH (1982) An American Tail (1986) All are available on KZbin Movies channel to rent or buy, so no excuses about finding them. I suggest turning on subtitles, since you might have mute all the music.

Shrek 2, 2 fast 2 donkey

[@karlsmith2570]

"Who's The Voice Of The Donkey?" That would be Eddie Murphy, James

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Yup, I figured it out during the credits

[@-EchoesIntoEternity-]

congrats Gramps! Shrek is great hits on all the fairy tale tropes hilariously.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks

[@christineirving4491pluviophile]

Oh please, you have GOT to watch Shrek 2. Best animated sequel ever.

[@karlsmith2570]

Hey, James Congratulations on pending grandfather status

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks

[@continuallyblessed44]

This movie is amazing and the sequel is even better!

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

good to know

[@SC-gp7kt]

CONGRATULATIONS! 💕 You will make a great grandpa! Shrek's voice is Mike Myers (Wayne's World, Austin Powers), Farquhart is yes, John Lithgow, and Princess Fiona is Cameron Diaz (There's Something About Mary). I love the adult humor in today's kids' movies 😆

[@samratcliffe5253]

Congratulations to you and your family, James!

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks

[@deenormus1975]

Congrats, Pop! Or Grandpa. Or Pappy. Or Grandad. Or Gramps. Or whatever u choose to be called😉

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks

[@deenormus1975]

Lol his name…IS Donkey! U know how some people name their cat “Cat”?! Same thing. He’s Donkey. But if it makes u feel better, his name is Donkay. That’s how Shrek sounds when he says it😉

[@kalystajade3688]

You will love this series

[@hugueslepeltier8931]

the donkey's voice is Eddy murphy. in all the 4 shreck movies, he didn't have an other name. He allways has been named "Donkey"

[@Destyn2b]

Congratulations! Babies are such a blessing. Hearing Donkey say "and in the morning I'm making waffles!" still cracks me up.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Agreed, the delivery was great. And thanks

[@fynnthefox9078]

This movie is basically a big middle finger to Disney. Satirizing animated fairy tale movies, while also telling a touching love story.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Very funny movie

[@ryanfeit1420]

Congrats on being a Grandpa, James! I am so happy for you 😂😂 An animated film series I would definitely recommend watching is the "Madagascar" film series from DreamWorks. All the films are fun and enjoyable and has celebrity cast voices from Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Jada Pinket-Smith and David Schwimmer (Ross from "Friends").

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Added thanks Ryan

[@cvdm9663]

Please watch Shrek 2 as well and congrats.

[@celiashen5490]

The Last Unicorn, Hoodwinked, Happily N'Ever After are 3 of my favorite non-Disney movies. The Jim Hensen Company is just great.

[@oontgrad]

This was such a fun reaction, I haven't seen this since I was a kid. It really is a great movie. There is such a wide gulf between great animated movies like this, and the endless mediocrity that some studios pump out for children. Kids deserve good movies

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

100% agree with great content

[@lillbunnyhop]

I promise you shrek 2 is just as, if not funnier. I hope to see that on your channel soon

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

I'll have to make sure I get to it.

[@SirPaladin]

So the reason this movie (and in fact Dreamworks Studios) exists is because the studio founder Jeffery Katzenberg used to work for Disney & was up for the job of CEO but instead they passed over him and gave the job to another executive named Michael Eisner. Katzenberg quit out of frustration & founded Dreamworks with some friends and made this as their first project- a movie that relentlessly mocks Disney films and tropes. Lord Farquaad is supposed to be a caricature of Michael Eisner.

[@RobFMDetroit]

And that's why he's called Fu**wad. Er, I mean "Farquaad".

[@fayej6591]

The Robin Hood scene made me think that you need to see Robin Hood: Men in Tights. I don’t think you’ve done that one yet.

[@noelleanglade1412]

Congratulations to you becoming a grandfather James! I think that you are going to be a great grandfather!🎉❤😊 Also some other suggestions for animated movies you might want to consider doing…Pixar Films, (The Incredibles, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, How To Train Your Dragon Trilogy…that’s all I can think of for now!)

[@MsBlackdeath13]

Congrats on becoming Grandpa 🎉 Also great reaction. Always love how wholesome your reactions are, they really lift my mood. I hope you’ll do the sequel as well. It’s just as good, if not even better. Cheers, from Denmark 🇩🇰

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks you so much

[@ScragsP22]

Congratulations Grandpa! Grandkids are awesome. You get to spoil them, sugar them up then rile them up and send them home for their parents to handle. Have fun!

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks

[@GaryLBlakeley]

I love this movie. Great reaction. I knew you would enjoy this one. You have to watch Shrek 2. So many jokes and references in these movies that kids wont get.

[@EricAKATheBelgianGuy]

My three favorite parts: Shrek's expression in the Duloc picture. "Pick number three, my lord!" while he holds up two fingers The entire Monsieur Hood scene

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

OMG.. I didn't see the two fingers

[@exceedcharge1]

No one ever talks about how the evil queen from snow white is married to the muffin man, i think its cute

[@Cantmakeupmymindonaname]

😮 i did not know that

[@derpdailygaming1414]

This movie sticks in my head for one reason. In one of my favorite movies, I am legend. The main character memorizes donkeys line and recites it as its being shown on the TV. Thats a great movie btw. Before all of the Will Smith Shenanigans

[@SonOfMuta]

Chris Farley (you know from Tommy Boy) was originally cast as Shrek and before he died in 1997, he had recorded around 85% of the dialogue for the first film, which was subsequently abandoned following his tragic death.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Oh that's too bad. That would have been great

[@ajchad4174]

"I found out that I'm going to be a grandfather" AAAAAH! I did not expect to react this way. Congrats! ❤❤❤❤❤ and all the love to your son and his wife as they go on this journey.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Well thank you soooo much. It's appreciated

[@EricAKATheBelgianGuy]

I was in middle school when this came out. I don't know how, but I ended up seeing it in the movie theater four separate times.

[@katwebbxo]

This came out on video on my 9th birthday so the VHS was one of my gifts that year and still one of my favorites ever lol. So funny. Hope you watch the sequel too. 💚 Congratulations btw!!! 🎊💖🎉

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks

[@iKvetch558]

Oh boy...this means we're having WAFFLES for breakfast...Donkey always makes waffles!😁😜

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

I loved that line!

[@theirishslyeyes]

Ooohhhh congratulations!!! What a blessing!!! Such happy news on a Monday!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks

[@itchyandred4131]

Absolutely the funniest kids movie ever😂😂😂😂

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Hope you enjoyed my reaction

[@jaxonsjerseys]

Love Shrek!! You have to know that Shrek 2 is regarded as one of the greatest sequels EVER!

[@3DJapan]

4:48 In the industry we call that secondary animation. Another example of treat would be a chubby character walking and the fat jiggles.

[@mikemolina462]

Congrats on the new grandbaby! And honestly, "Shrek" has a lot of adult humor.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

I'm sure I didn't catch it all

[@rainbowpegacornstudios]

I love the bit where Shrek and Donkey are making fun of Lord Farquaad. Shrek: Let me put it to ya this way, Princess. Men of Farquaad's stature are in SHORT supply. Donkey chuckles- I don't know, Shrek. There ARE those who think LITTLE of him. 😁🤭😅😂🤣☠️

[@sagemcbroom5209]

Congrats gramps gotta watch the 2nd one I dont know about everyone else but personally I love the 2nd alittle bit more

[@KatBee00]

Just so you know, now we'll never stop begging for the sequel. One of the most iconic and celebrated animated sequels ever

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Oh I'll watch the 2nd one pretty soon I hope.

[@christopherb501]

Always remember: DreamWorks came about - in part - from Jeffrey Katzenberg flipping the bird to Disney. Entering Duloc and parodying Disneyland was the most direct DW got with this. Thankfully, it has a pretty good track record in spite of this.

[@KajunMoo70]

My late husband and I loved all the Shrek movies! We were in our early 60s when we saw the first one. Congratulations to all on the new baby!

[@TheKrensada]

I thought you've seen Trading places. A brilliant movie with Eddie Murphy in it. Interesting fact about this movie. DreamWorks was working on two animated movies at the time. This one and Prince of Egypt. (if you have not seen that movie, you absolutely should) anyway animators that weren't doing a good job on that movie were sent to work on this one as a form of punishment. Because DreamWorks thought this movie would be a bomb. It turned out being an entertainment touchstone that spawned an entire franchise and a bazillion sequels. And Prince of Egypt has largely been forgotten to time.

[@ChrissaTodd]

the thing is yeah shrek is visually scary, but shrek just minds his own business so if they didn't try to get him with pitchforks and fire he'd probably not even bother them.

[@janedoe5229]

"Dulac" is a parody of DISNEY. Dulac is the name of a famous fairy-tale illustrator, just like DISNEY. (I am an artist, and that it is bit of trivia that I happen to know, so they second they said "Dulac, I KNEW they were picking on Disney.) And the opening little song at Dulac is just like "The small world" ride at DISNEYLAND. And the center of Dulac is just like the Main Street in Disneyland.

[@Angelicwings1]

Many congrats! May your son and his partner have a wonderful and safe journey into parenthood

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks for that, it's appreciated

Now you have to watch all the Shrek movies 😂. If you haven’t seen “How to train your Dragon”. I highly suggest it! 🐉

[@TheBlueDragon86]

Congratulations on being a grandfather! Excited for you! Can’t wait to watch your reaction, love this one!

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thank you so much!!

[@clexgirl]

Congratulations James! 😀😀😀 You're going to be such an awesome grandpa!

[@tcshack701]

When you watch the sequels just so you know the second one has an end credit scene, that is crucial too watch before the third movie.

[@JacobG093]

Thanks for posting these videos. You are such a genuine guy and have a warm spirit. I've been struggling with some health problems recently and watching you react to Shrek was really helpful for me today.

Hi!🤗 You're awesome mate, appreciate ya soo much!🥰 Lotsa love from Australia! 💚 🇦🇺

I appreciate you too!

[@zachedwards6006]

I love shrek! Definitely check out some Pixar films too! Up, Wall-e, Onward and pretty much every other are must watches if you haven’t seen them! Huge congrats and the grand baby! You will be an AWESOME grandpa!

[@arctan2010]

Excellent reaction, Grandpa! One of the few movies I actually enjoy watching with kids because they also like pointing out lots of Easter eggs I missed.

[@joejawson5264]

Congrats Grandpa! I saw this first as an adult, and have watched it many times. The second one is good too.

[@danielle2247]

The second one is the best ☺️

[@lordrahl2345]

Some of the best movies in the last 25 yrs are animated. Spirited Away, Your Name and A Silent Voice just to name a few.

[@pamelahofman1785]

I’m so happy for you and your family. Looking forward to hearing about the baby’s arrival!

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thank you so much!

[@-.._.-_...-_.._-..__..._.-.-.-]

Congratulations on becoming a grandparent! Congratulations to your son and the rest of the family, as well! I hear being a grandparent comes with unique challenges, such as navigating boundaries with the parents, but is ultimately a more enjoyable experience, because you can be more relaxed in your role.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Yes! Thank you!

[@WanderingRoe]

Shrek is love. Shrek is life. 😎 These are great movies, look forward to you checking out the sequels! Funnily enough I’m sure I watch childhood movies more as an adult because I appreciate the plots and scripts in ways I couldn’t as a child. 😉

[@samanthanickson6478]

you can *never* laugh too hard at shrek. 😂

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Happy to hear it

[@katrinacash6393]

Congratulations and Shrek is for adults too! The other movies in this series are just as great!

[@melody9241]

😂😂😂they made literally animal balloons 😂😂😂

[@Syberjunkie1]

One of the darkest hidden scenes in the movie is the story of the three bears. The first time you see them, Mama and Papa bear are in a cage with Baby bear separated. Later, when it shows Papa and Baby, Papa bear is consoling Baby. Then later you see Mama bear on Farquaad's floor as a bear skin rug. She is still wearing her bow. Dreamworks is brutal.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Wow that is brutal. I love little details like that

[@goldieschooch8512]

So Happy for you .. Congratulations!! PopPop, Poppy, Grandpa, Gramps, etc… Great Movie Choice…it definitely won’t be your 1st time watching it now lol 😂! ✌🏻☀️

[@Drawkcabi]

Congratulations on soon being a grandpa! Have you seen any of the Muppet movies? I loved them so much as a kid, and The Muppet Show too! Watched them over and over, and they are still fun to watch as an adult! The best one is the original The Muppet Movie from 1979. I was 4 years old when that came out in the theater and I got my grandmother to take me to see it about a half dozen times. Have you seen the Herbie The Love Bug movies? The live-action Disney movies about a sentient Volkswagen Beetle? Loved those movies too as a kid! A lot of great vintage 60's/70's cars in those movies too! Best Regards!

[@adamsgrad93]

I was an adult when this movie came out but I loved watching it with my nephews, the whole series holds up, you should watch all 4 films.

[@faithjones881]

Oh my gosh! Congratulations!! 🙏🏻❤️… a grandpa! 🎉🎉. I love Shrek still and I’m 64🤣🤣🤣. I love them all from Foghorn Leghorn to Lady and the Tramp and in between🤣🤣🤣🤣.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thank you so much

[@DAMIENDMILLS]

This is made by Dreamworks, which does NOT have to be as family friendly as Disney. Dreamworks movies are allowed to have darker, more mature themes than Disney was allowed. That brought us movies like Prince of Egypt, Tropic Thunder, Kung Fu Panda, Anchorman, American Beauty, and Galaxy Quest

[@suthius85]

Shrek is...probably "Classic" status now.

[@evelynrosewindsor]

Congratulations, Grandpa! I’m so happy for you and your family.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks so much

[@richardirwin7089]

This is the type of animated story that we’re went for kids and adults so the inappropriate jokes go over the kids radar.

[@wyla]

unfortunately kids aren’t that unaware, i got every one of them and i make a jokes about it at family dinner and safe to say i wasn’t allowed to watch shrek again lol

[@georgi_ana]

Big congrats, James! 🎊🎊Wishing you mountains of happiness to you and your family! I have been watching your channel for over a year now, but this is the first time I write a comment. I recommend you watch some Pixar animations that you will love: Up (2009), WALL-E (2008), Coco (2017), Ratatouille (2007), Inside Out (2015), Toy Story (1995).

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks so much!

I'm very long forward to it

[@fairydust-weepthewildwinds]

The Princess CAMERON DIAZ, who is in the movie Charlie’s Angels with Drew Barrymore and Bill Murray and Lucy Lou. I believe the Villains are Crispin Glover(George McFly in Back to the Future). Shrek is Mike Myers who is Austin Powers and also in the movie Wayne’s world 🤣🤣🤣check Wayne’s world out👍😆

[@mannys4036]

Congratulation grandpa: lol! - You will be the best grandfather. Shrek is awesome and so are the other parts.

[@burnout_2017]

This is brought to you by the same genius who brought you Wayne's World and Austin Powers.......Mike Myers. Congratulations on becoming a grandparent, im still waiting but im patient. Cant wait to meet him/her on here someday. I can tell you're going to be the best grampa, just remember, when shopping for xmas and birthday gifts.......the louder the better. 😂😂😂

Congratulations!! If you’ve seen the Disney Renaissance films already (Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King), my other favorite post-Walt animated film by Disney is Moana, which is gorgeous, funny, has wonderful songs, and a terrific message/theme.

[@NatLL20]

I remember watching this when I was younger and then in comparison as an adult you see all the grown up jokes which always makes me laugh. My nephew has recently discovered shrek and loves it. Ive only watched this one and the sequel- which has always been my favourite one and is probably one of the best sequels too. New characters and more refernces. Great reaction 😊
