Hollywood just can’t quit!

I remember people telling me Shrek 4 was better than Shrek 3, but Shrek 4 was even worse. Like it was really boring.

I still love the first two and rewatch them every few years.

Not just Shrek 5, but a Donkey spin-off

I wonder if they'll ever get round to making another Short Circuit, Gremlins or Wayne's World movie.

It’s scheduled for release on July 1, 2026. Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, and Eddie Murphy will also reprise their roles.

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish actually set the film up in the ending.

Why does Felicia have brown eyes now instead of blue?

And more importantly…why does this sequel even need to exist?

The film has been delayed from its December 2026 release to June 2027. It must be getting the treatment as "Ugly Sonic" did after the reaction to that teaser.

The animation has improved but not too much. I thought the way they make fun of Olaf in Frozen was funny.

Doesn't seem like it, and if they did that'd be a waste. We haven't seen these characters in like 15 years... surely we'd like to catch up with them first before doing some gimmick like that?

The animation has improved but not too much.

I think it'd be bad if they tried to "improve" the animation too much beyond the first four movies.

I never saw the Shrek movies, they came out at that time when I was still a kid but close enough to be a teenager that I didn't want tu be seen liking "kid stuff".

I'll probably never watch them since I don't see how an adult can watch something like that without nostalgia and justify that it's genuinely good. I'm sure Shrek 3,4 and 5 are all the same quality as the original 2, you guys just grew up and refuse to acknowledge that.

[Andrew NDB]

It's been ages since I've seen them, but as I recall 1-3 were all solid but 4 felt like some kind of a... direct-to-video "Christmas Special" or something. Something was a little bit off there.

thread theme:
I actually saw smash mouth at a music festival the same year the singer passed away, i only saw them since there was no one else playing at the time i would've preferred but i gotta say his set was nostalgic of the 2000s, reminded me of being a kid
