A reference to the movie Shrek!

The third movie was a little too shit for my taste. But when Shrek 2 came out in '04, I think Dreamworks really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole film has a clear, crisp narrative, and a new sheen of comedic timing that really gives the jokes a big boost. He's been compared to Woody, but I think Shrek has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

The Shrek 2/Jennifer Saunders version of "Holding Out For A Hero" is better than the Bonnie Tyler original.

Shrek The Third was pretty decent IMO, but Shrek Forever After and all the spinoffs were really lame.

Here’s hoping 5 is at least passable

You haven't seen bad Shrek until you've seen Shrek 4D.

All the spin offs?

Are you counting the latest Puss in Boots movie? Because that one was pretty well received and I personally loved it

Puss in boots excluded. That movie went hard af
