EARLY ACCESS: Shrek FULL REACTION
Added 2024-01-31 17:44:08 +0000 UTCShrek is an animated gem that defies traditional fairy tale norms, delivering a witty and entertaining story that appeals to both children and adults. At its core, Shrek is a parody of fairy tales, turning the happily-ever-after narrative on its head. Here we have an ogre with a heart of gold, voiced brilliantly by Mike Myers. Mike Myers, along with Eddie Murphy as the talkative and hilarious Donkey, and Cameron Diaz as the feisty Princess Fiona, forms an outstanding cast that brings these beloved characters to life.
What sets Shrek apart is its ability to cater to multiple audiences simultaneously. Kids can enjoy the colorful characters and slapstick humor, while adults will appreciate the clever satire, poking fun at classic fairy tale tropes. The film's humor is both smart and slapstick, ensuring that there's something for everyone.
Beyond the laughs, Shrek carries a heartwarming message about self-acceptance and the importance of inner beauty. The relationship that develops between Shrek and Fiona is both touching and humorous, adding depth to the storyline.

2024-02-14 15:04:14 +0000 UTCYeah... You clearly missed literally everywhere saying WATCH ALONG format. It's literally in the tier you clicked on, in the description, and in the beginning of the video. Do yourself a favor and learn about copyright laws before you leave a message like this. Do better next time.

2024-02-14 14:15:12 +0000 UTCseriously i paid 7 euro for this. only people watching a movie but no sound or video just a stupid f**king timer

2024-02-14 05:46:00 +0000 UTCFun fact: Shrek was not initially expected to do well at all at the box office. So, as a punishment other studios would punish their cast and crewmembers by forcing them to come to work on Shrek. They called it "Getting Shrek'ed".

2024-02-14 01:00:57 +0000 UTCI like the Shrek series really since I was very young. And to the Oaks point at the end, I cant recall what was the first few videos I watched with you guys, but immedietaly it was obvious that you enjoy it, you live through the movies and each of you has a specific angle of view with the recap at the end and you compliment each other. Which really fits the sentence "dont judge the book by its cover". Love what you are doing and Im looking forward to the next ones :)

2024-02-11 19:08:22 +0000 UTCOne of mine and my husbands favorite movies. He knows when Im having a bad day because I will walk through the house hollering "Im a donkey on the edge!"
Annie Adkins-Calloway
2024-02-02 04:17:06 +0000 UTCBecause of my last name, I used to trick kids in school that my dad was Mike Myers. It was the early 2000s and the internet was just becoming popular and since he’s Canadian and so am I, the kids on the playground believed it haha.
Alanna Meyers
2024-02-01 23:14:58 +0000 UTCI was just about to comment the punishment thing. Funnily enough, the other movie they were making at the time (the one where working on it wasn’t a punishment) was a massive flop and this “punishment” movie is still loved today. Ironic 🤣
Alanna Banana 🍌
2024-02-01 23:12:34 +0000 UTCYes, the 2nd Shrek is the best in my opinion.
Alanna Banana 🍌
2024-02-01 23:10:25 +0000 UTCPetition for you guys to dress up as Shrek or at least wear green face paint for one of your reactions to one of the next Shrek movies. 💚
Alanna Meyers
2024-02-01 23:09:36 +0000 UTCI trust if you start Shrek, you will eventually get to Puss in Boots 2?? 😍 Puss in Boots 2 is a phenomenal movie, I'd love you to see it!
Patricia
2024-02-01 21:18:41 +0000 UTCReally enjoyed the reaction to this one! As a kid I was not really into this, I think I enjoy it better now as an adult. As for animation movies, I really recommend to check out the Disney Hercules (1997) and Mulan (1998), they give me the same vibes as Tangled, has great songs and really fun.
Bianka Szinok
2024-02-01 20:29:37 +0000 UTCYes, agreed.
Alanna Banana 🍌
2024-02-01 20:03:27 +0000 UTCWow,watching this as a kid the animation seems so amazing. looking back now, it’s so funny how something initially perceived as ahead of its time and visually phenomenal looks relatively dated! 😅 It’s such a great film though, and I can’t wait to see you guys possibly venturing into shrek 2
Juliet
2024-02-01 16:07:54 +0000 UTCshrek 2 is the greatest movie ever i swear to god
Katie
2024-02-01 12:33:29 +0000 UTCThis is such a classic and still holds up from the animation and the comedy. There are so really dark jokes too, like her eating the bird's eggs but the darkest is the 3 bears. You see the the Papa bear being seperated from Mama and baby bear and then later when all the fairy tale creatures are at Shrek's you just see Mama and baby bear and finally you see Papa bear as rug in Farquaad's. It's joke that I didn't even notice until I was much older. I really do love how they take a spin on the true love's first kiss troupe and honestly the music when she's "transforming" is beautiful, there are some really nice music in this. I don't think this film would have worked as well if Fiona hadn't stayed an Ogre, I wasn't feeling their chemistry until then. And I love Oak singing and gushing about Hallelujah, this was my introduction to that song and I've loved it ever since. There are some really great covers but this is one of my favorites. I am so excited for 2! It's the best in the entire series and top 3 of my favorite Dreamworks films and I know you'll love it!
Annie519
2024-02-01 09:40:14 +0000 UTCYes it is! It's the best in the entire series and honest for me top 3 best Dreamworks films! This one is great, a great villain, characters and comedy but every aspect is even better in 2! When I saw they were watching this one I was hoping they would do all of them just so they would watch for 2!
Annie519
2024-02-01 09:33:16 +0000 UTCYayyy another freaking classic 👌 🙌 😍
Kyra Brown
2024-02-01 03:35:26 +0000 UTCNot to hype it up too much, but I have consistently seen Shrek 2 described as a perfect sequel from a ton of different people. Like Terminator 2, it simply does everything right that the original did, and then miraculously gives you EVEN MORE that you didn't know you wanted, but now you can't live without. I cannot wait for you guys to watch it.
Marco Gutierrez
2024-02-01 03:27:51 +0000 UTConce youre finished with the shrek tetralogy you should totally check out the puss in boots movies. Im sure you guys will definitely appreciate the animation style
oryanz
2024-02-01 03:23:05 +0000 UTCGreat Reaction, Legend Movie
Patience
2024-02-01 03:00:03 +0000 UTCYeah and Janeane Garofalo was Fiona but I'm not sure if she got fired once Mike took over or during Chris' time. I just know it took awhile before they found their Fiona.
Megan
2024-02-01 02:21:07 +0000 UTCi LOVE the shrek musical SO MUCH !!!
Jenna
2024-02-01 02:17:08 +0000 UTCI didn’t know this about Chris Farley! Wow!
Jenna
2024-02-01 02:16:24 +0000 UTCYes !!!
Jenna
2024-02-01 02:14:19 +0000 UTCY'all need to give Enchanted starring Amy Adams a watch. It's another movie that mocks those fairytale tropes.
Kelly Melvin
2024-02-01 02:13:03 +0000 UTCSutton and Christopher Sieber really steal the entire show for me 😂
Hayley K
2024-02-01 01:16:32 +0000 UTCI'm SO ready for a rewatch 🙌🙌
Sarah
2024-02-01 01:14:11 +0000 UTCAnother great reaction I think I speak on the behalf of many people that it would be amazing if you guy watched Daredevil(disney+) plus is any of you haven’t watch it already
Yaelson Robles Gudino
2024-02-01 00:50:19 +0000 UTCA few cool facts: 1) This movie was thought to be a trash movie, so they sent animators/people not cutting it on other films to this project. They referred to it as being sent to the gulag or getting shreked. 2) This movie saved Dreamworks. They were on the brink of financial ruin and close to shuttering. 3) Chris Farley was the og voice but passed away before completion. When Mike took over, he didn't want to just replace Chris, so he made them completely rewrite the story.
Megan
2024-02-01 00:38:24 +0000 UTCThe shrek games were great too
Marquis keel
2024-02-01 00:32:24 +0000 UTCSpecifically the 2000s James Gunn ones. I've never seen anyone who liked the stuff that came after 2010 😭
J Knight
2024-02-01 00:21:28 +0000 UTCThe Musical is great. Love Sutton Foster and Brian D'arcy as Shrek as Fiona!
J Knight
2024-02-01 00:19:50 +0000 UTCShrek 2 is my favorite. What a sequel!
J Knight
2024-02-01 00:19:02 +0000 UTCyall should for sure watch the rest of the trilogy and maybe even other movies in the universe, puss and boots manly. btw the newest puss and boots movie has in my opinion some of the greatest animation i've ever seen.
dallen cech
2024-01-31 23:51:09 +0000 UTCOh yes. Toy Story movies please! They really are so so incredible, and they do pack the emotional punch.
Kel
2024-01-31 23:45:46 +0000 UTCWhaaaa you guys gotta see the second one it’s the best! And you haven’t seen Toy Story!? That’s a crime, to jail you go! 😂 but seriously they are fantastic movies you guys should watch them!
Raquel Perodin
2024-01-31 23:34:01 +0000 UTCI know others have said it but I will join in and beg you to do Shrek 2. It’s honestly so much better!
Kel
2024-01-31 23:30:24 +0000 UTCIt's funny that you guys watched Shrek, a few days after Hamilton and you talked about other musicals - WELL, believe it or not, there is actually a Shrek Musical out there! And it's actually really funny😀 So it would be cool if you ever got to watch it, it used to be on Netflix but I don't know where it's streaming now Another thing; I just watched your Hobbit reaction and going into Shrek and the first thing I here is "its Smaug!" The coincidence😂😂
patrick
2024-01-31 23:07:42 +0000 UTCJust so yall know Shrek 2 is regarded as one of the greatest sequals of all time. Can't wait! Also Hallelujah is one of my favorite songs of all time.
Tanisha Jones
2024-01-31 22:49:46 +0000 UTCYou guys seen the live action Scooby Doo movies? Those would be good reactions. Similar humor.
Ron Banks
2024-01-31 22:42:25 +0000 UTCThe puss in boots movies are a must watch if you are doing all the Shrek universe stories, they are also both incredibly good, the most recent puss in boots the last wish probably being my favourite Shrek universe movie outside of shrek 2
calum1
2024-01-31 22:20:45 +0000 UTCThis is great. I cannot wait for yall to do best Shrek movie aka Shrek 2
Jordan Carothers
2024-01-31 22:07:44 +0000 UTCPart 2 is even better.. Fun fact. Chris Farley was supposed to be Shrek, but he passed when it was in development so they got Myers, That aside, have you all seen the original Petes Dragon. I saw it in the theater as a kid, I loved it cause everything and everyone is "live action" except the dragon. As a kid in 1977 it blew my mind.
Ryan Towell
2024-01-31 21:16:39 +0000 UTCIs it sad that I can quote this whole movie? 😂😂
Ana
2024-01-31 21:14:37 +0000 UTCI love that they used Hallelujah in this movie too, Oak! And you're right, Leonard Cohen wrote the song and this is Jeff Buckley singing it. My personal favorite version is by Rufus Wainwright. But it's hard to go wrong with any version... Great reaction! Can't wait for Shrek 2
Maggie Barbour
2024-01-31 21:05:25 +0000 UTCThe sequel is regarded one of the best sequel movies ever
calum1
2024-01-31 20:45:26 +0000 UTCHope you guys watch Puss in boots as well!
Low
2024-01-31 20:43:11 +0000 UTCYayyy can’t wait to watch this when I get home!!
Raquel Perodin
2024-01-31 20:34:23 +0000 UTCWas smiling the whole time
Graham F
2024-01-31 20:19:28 +0000 UTCif you ever need a filler movie to watch or just something fun, check out Shrek The Musical! It might be one of the funniest things I've ever watched.
Hayley K
2024-01-31 20:07:35 +0000 UTCI looove all Shrek movies, but the second is my absolute favorite! I can't wait for you guys to watch them all tho! Such a great series of movies.
Miss_CJ
2024-01-31 19:54:55 +0000 UTCAlso, the bears in the beginning are crying because not only are they being sent away but, Lord F killed 1 parent and made it the rug you see later in the film
Thepuppetmasta
2024-01-31 19:48:21 +0000 UTCFun fact, this movie was actually considered a punishment to work on. The team who made it were from different animated movies in the studios, the movies before this apparently failed so bad and either never got released or did get released but got low views and ratings, so due to the lack of success the studio would send people to make this movie as a punishment. Not sure if im missing anything else, but a small paraphrase of this movies history.. also the original design of Shrek is stuff made of actual nightmares 😅
Thepuppetmasta
2024-01-31 19:44:42 +0000 UTCI cannot believe any of you had never seen Shrek, oh my god. So excited to watch when I get home!!
Jenna
2024-01-31 19:40:55 +0000 UTCOkay I say this with love! It will be so fun to watch a reaction to shrek 2 by reactors old enough to get all the references! I’ve seen some reactions to the shrek series by people in their early 20s and they don’t get the parodies and it’s so sad! I’m so excited to watch this one and the sequel!
Christina
2024-01-31 18:52:23 +0000 UTCAlso the scene with the muffin man, in Spanish we have a song about Pin Pon who is a handsome doll made of cardboard who washes his face with water and soup and the scene is about that instead of the Muffin man
Danna Radilla
2024-01-31 18:47:11 +0000 UTCHaha, I loved watching your reaction to the arena scene (25 minutes in), especially after watching the WWE Royal Rumble live stream with you guys the other night. I think this movie is popular not just for its humor, but it has something every person. So many references.
Culper (Lukas)
2024-01-31 18:32:48 +0000 UTCJust finished MI:Dead Reckoning this morning, now Shrek. It's a good day.
Curtis Rice
2024-01-31 18:12:45 +0000 UTCThis is the first time I'm watching it in English. In Spanish it is absolutely awesome, the dubbing is amazing, especially Donkey, in Spanish Burro is fantastic. Also I find pretty interesting that this movie won the Oscar agains another amazing movie Monsters Inc.
Danna Radilla
2024-01-31 18:08:46 +0000 UTCWOOOOOOOOO

Mariun Garcia
2024-01-31 17:52:08 +0000 UTCNow you get to witness the famously known across the world as the "best sequel ever made" Shrek 2 - don't get me wrong the first is a classic, iconic and hilarious, but the hype lies in 2!
A.D
