Not sure whether you have seen them, but Kung Fu Panda & How To Train Your Dragon are both excellent

[@VerowakReacts]

@@damn5987 I haven't! I actually haven't seen many animated movies at all lol

Akira (1988) is a cult classic and definitely worth a watch.

Shrek 2 one of the rare times a sequel is better and funnier, than the original.

[@mikeslife2916]

I agree hahaha❤

Yeah, I was not expecting that at all lol

I think Shrek 2 is funnier, but Shrek 1 is a better movie.

[@positivelynegative9149]

@@mrshogun1689 Yes!

[@WadeWallenstein]

The best thing about the Shrek films is that they weren't just jokes, sight gags, puns and references. They have tons of heart and a great story!

[@VerowakReacts]

Definitely!! Shrek feels so well written and well thought out too! I'm so enjoying them, and the story is heartfelt too

[@aTofuJunkie]

Puss in Boots when singing the La Vida Loca, when he was in the chair spraying water on himself was a direct reference to one of the dancing scenes in the movie Flashdance (1983) with Jennifer Beals.

[@VerowakReacts]

Ahh, it felt like a reference but had no idea from what, thanks!

[@ronaldolson6553]

Credit where it's due, the FFA knights might have been against Shrek, but damn, were they good at their jobs. The fact that they were able to beat Mongo, even if Mongo was able to get Shrek into the castle is proof that they were at least a few cuts above your average soldier. Not to mention how they came to the solution to defeat Mongo. Either they were brilliant enough to come up with that on the spot, they were aware of what the Muffin Man could do, and had a counter ready in case he went nuts, or the MM had ALREADY gone nuts bedore and they were prepared for a repeat incident. Whatever the case, hats off to them!

[@rawtrout007]

And now they work for him cause he’s the King of Far Far Away!

[@xenxander]

"I wonder what Dragon looked like" is spot on as we just never know.

[@whoarocket]

Seeing Donkey as a horse really reminded me of the horse in Tangled. That is another animated movie with some great snarky humor. And if you haven't gotten to them yet, the Mission Impossible movies are really good.

[@VerowakReacts]

Starting Mission Impossible next month!

[@ccchhhrrriiisss100]

Very cool. I live in Palo Alto, California. The donkey who was the model for "Donkey" in the Shrek movies lives in a park in our town. His name is "Perry." Once you meet him, you'd immediately know that he's the right donkey. He looks identical to Donkey and is very friendly (and loves hanging out with people).

[@ronfehr7899]

When donkey said "I'm coming, Elizabeth," prior to fainting, he was making reference to a familiar running gag from the 1970s sitcom Sanford and Son. Fred Sanford, the owner of a salvage yard, was in his 60s or 70s, and would sometimes fake a heart attack, look upwards and say the phrase to his deceased wife.

[@GalaxiaStars]

Isn't Elizabeth also the name of dragon?

[@crazyguy_1233]

I think I've heard that Dragon became a unicorn after Donkey drank the potion. She was originally the one who was going to rescue Shrek and Donkey but they decided not to.

[@CervusLavandula]

A Pegasus actually, which makes sense because she has wings

[@9386AliG]

13:33 Aww, Puss looks so cute like this.

[@thisisscorpio6024]

I love the pepper spray bit. When these writers take a nugget from current culture it's to the nth degree. complete followthru

[@positivelynegative9149]

I couldn't tell if you got the reference, but the "white Bronco" is from O.J. Simpson's famous police chase. I know you said "Cops", but it was more specific than that. 🤣

[@VerowakReacts]

I definitely didn't get that while watching it. OJ Simpson was before my time lol

[@aTofuJunkie]

And the voice of the chase sounds exactly from Sublime's song, April 26th, 1992 (Miami).

[@NineAtoms1]

Quote: Yoda, Return of the Jedi, talking with Luke.

[@duaineturvey1783]

A lot of people miss the after credit scene then get confused at the start of Shrek 3

[@VerowakReacts]

95% of the time I check for after credit scenes, and this time I didn't, so obviously there was one. I've since watched it though!

[@binchlipusfukaroniiandchee464]

Thank you for feeding us fiends who search for people enjoying movies we enjoy

[@mikebrown7799]

Hi Miss Verowak, that quote would be from Yoda in "Return of the Jedi".🙂I think the running in the fields scene may be a call back to "The Sound of Music" (1965). That was a nice mashup between fairytale and modern day scenes combined. Great reactions to this very enjoyable second Shrek film, Miss Verowak!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽The Shrek films are all well made and enjoyable!🙂

[@VerowakReacts]

Correct, it's Yoda in Episode 6! Ahh, Sound of Music. That makes sense, it looked familiar but not from a movie that I've seen lol

[@grabtharshammer]

@@VerowakReacts a movie starring Julie Andrews who played the Queen Lillian

[@randywebb2100]

19 years later and it's still as great as it was than if a bit better when it came out in 2004. Verowak you are absolutely beautiful and always do great at reactions. Quote trivia was also Yoda

[@VerowakReacts]

Correct, it's Yoda! It's amazing how this movie was made 19 years ago, it is just so well made

[@FM-kl7oc]

The Muffin Man surely has to be a reference to Ghostbusters!

[@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay]

Until it sounded like Godzilla

[@AKarrit]

Such a good film, shrek 2 is like the perfect shrek

[@VerowakReacts]

It really is perfect. I have nothing negative to say about it at all

[@sammylane21]

I'm surprised Fiona's parents weren't asking why they weren't invited to the wedding. In case you didn't get the reference in the dinner scene, that scene was a parody of the dinner scene from THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW.

[@VerowakReacts]

Ahh, I've never seen Rocky Horror Picture Show so I completely missed that reference lol Thank you! Hopefully I recognize the scene when I watch it :D

[@chrisconnell1075]

There is a bit after the credits, donkey finds out he has kids with dragon

[@VerowakReacts]

I watched it afterwards since a lot of people mentioned there was an after credit scene! Those crossbreeds are adorable!

[@peterkoester7358]

ALWAYS check for a post credit scene!!!!!

[@jkhoover]

The "We need a Hero" song gets me in every movie. It's used better in only one other movie, but I can't recommend the movie. It will ruin the surprise.

[@VerowakReacts]

The song is very epic, it's great that it was used better in another movie. Hopefully I manage to watch it at some point lol

[@jkhoover]

@@VerowakReacts TBH, It's nostalgic for me, so I'm probably the only one that thinks it.

[@aTofuJunkie]

You'd be surprised, it's used in a lot of movies and trailers, including one of my favorite movies that came out in 1988. Bonnie Tyler's "Holding Out For A Hero" is a very popular and overused song in media. SPOILER MOVIE BELOW: SHORT CIRCUIT 2 (1988)

[@jkhoover]

@@aTofuJunkie That's the movie I was referencing.

[@ronfehr7899]

I think I know which movie you're thinking of, but I could be wrong.

I love that crack on Donkey by Puss. Shrek: How do ya feel? Donkey: I don't...feel any different. I look any different? Puss: You still look like an ass to me. 😁😂🤣☠️ The quote of the day is from Yoda in Return Of The Jedi

[@VerowakReacts]

Yes!! I love that one too. The writing in this movie was perfect And yes, correct for the quote!

[@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay]

@@VerowakReacts I was going to put The Empire Strikes Back, until I remembered that that's one of the last things Yoda said before he died, and he died in Return Of The Jedi

[@sharonrigsby5297]

The white bronco thing is actually an OJ Simpson reference. 😂

[@Fai-Fai]

I swear, human Shrek looks exactly like my step-dad

[@yutuvefan4ever]

21:22 I'm kinda late to the party but this is a reference to the O.J. Simpson car chase from the mid 90s. The suspect was driving a white Bronco and filmed by police from above by helicopter; pretty much like here in the movie. Edit: 31:11 So I guess I shouldnt have commented before finishing the whole video first, oops!

[@VerowakReacts]

Haha no worries! I like the enthusiasm and your desire to share fun facts!!

[@Eisenheim1191]

The quote is from Yoda, he says that to Luke on Dagobah in Return of the Jedi. Originally it was going to be called Revenge of the Jedi.

[@VerowakReacts]

Yes! Impressive, most impressive! I'm glad they changed it to Return of the Jedi, fits way better

[@nyladickey4094]

I really love Donkey too ^^

[@DC_Prox]

The other Shrek movies are worth watching, but this one is the peak.

[@RobertJW]

1 and 2 are just perfect.

[@beansfriend7033]

Maybe it simply wasn't included in the KZbin cut, but I hope you caught the end credits scene. Not a Pegasus, but ...

Is that Joda from the fifth star wars movie? He says something about "when old as me you are, not as good you look I think" So I think he also said that one you told us. Donkey as a horse? He is a noble steed!

It is Yoda, but in Star Wars episode 6. Donkey has always been and will always be a noble steed yes!

[@burkeiowa]

To break into a castle that is protected so well, in order to get to a woman who is not thrilled about the man being pushed upon her, I think it could have been better with a plan that some might find...inconceivable. If only they had made a movie reference like that. The movie needs some good movie references. Oh, wait... tons of references, but just not that one. But some Inigo Montoya would have been nice.

I will say this though only because this is separate from the movie. Dick Van Dyke is also in the movie and one day, when they were filming, he was in costume playing the part of an old man when they took their lunch break. He decided to walk a couple of blocks to a cafe for lunch. On his walk, he crossed the street at the corner in front of a tour buss full of tourists so he decided to play the part that he was dressed for and he started hobbling with his cane trying to cross the street. Once he got across and the light changed and the bus started going he picked up his cane and started sprinting down the street. He said the looks on those tourist's faces were priceless. He got a good laugh out of it.
