14 years later, this part of Shrek forever still bugs me (and Shrek 5 should fix it)

Shrek Forever After Ogre took his title to an alternate timeline and returned to his core, but there's something about the ending that still bothers me and Shrek 5 should fix. In 2001, DreamWorks Animation brought Shrekloosely based on William Steig's 1990 picture book of the same name. the success of Shrek He established DreamWorks Animation as a competitor to Pixar and helped grow the studio, while also creating a media franchise that now includes movies, spin-offs, TV shows, musicals, shorts and more.




Shrek introduces viewers to the titular ogre (voiced by Mike Myers) who, with the help of his new friend Donkey (Eddie Murphy), rescues Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) and breaks the curse that left her a ogre forever. The following films, along with Donkey, continued the story of Shrek and Fiona and saw them start a family. The fourth film, Shrek Forever AfterIt does things differently by introducing Rumpelstiltskin (Walt Dohm), who pulls Shrek into an alternate timeline – and so there's a part that still bothers me.


Shrek Brings Back the Horrors for Forever After The Dance Party

After continuing the tradition of Shrek Forever The Dance Party

at the end Shrek the ThirdShrek and Fiona became the parents of triplets Shrek Forever After met them after some time. Shrek and Fiona were doing great with their new responsibilities and activities as parents, but it soon became monotonous for Shrek. Rumpelstiltskin, already angry with Shrek for accidentally breaking the best deal during the events of the first film, took advantage of Shrek's boredom and frustration to make a deal with him: a day as a “real couch potato” in exchange for a day. childhood.

What was even more shocking in this new reality was that other hells were still around.


Shrek agrees and is drawn into an alternate reality where he spends his day as a “real couch potato”. However, he soon realized that this reality was completely different and that his friends never met him, he never met Fiona, and he escaped the castle alone. Rumpel then revealed to Shrek that he had taken Shrek's birthdayIt set off a chain reaction of events, including Rumpel becoming King of Far Far Away. What was even more shocking in this new reality was that other hells were still around.

Fiona became the leader of the ogres, creating a resistance against Rumpel in order to take back the kingdom. In the third act Shrek Forever AfterShrek surrendered and had no choice but to grant a wish that Rumpel used to free the ogres. Shrek managed to get a “true love” kiss from Fiona at the last minute and thus ended the deal with Rumpel, It sends him back to his timeline moments before he meets Rumpel.


Shrek Forever After
it continued the tradition of the previous films and ended with a dance party and that's the part that bothered me.

This gave Shrek a chance to change the course of that day and not ruin his marriage and friendship and finally appreciate them and their love. Shrek Forever After it continued the tradition of the previous films and ended with a dance party and that's the part that bothered me. The dance party shows Rumpel in a cage and everyone celebrating, but the ogres also show up. Since Shrek is back to his original timeline, the divs should not be visible and everything must be intact before he loses himself in the party.


This has been disputed by his fans Shrek movie epic that dance parties at the end of movies are non-canon, but one has a detail. Shrek Forever After can prove otherwise. It was during that scene that Rumpel was shown in a cage and his fate was accepted as canon. So the couches at the dance party could be considered a plot hole, and it still bothers me.

Previous Shrek Movies Showed Him To Be The Last Scarecrow Alive (Before He Meets Fiona)

Horrors in the Shrek Universe Have a Tragic Story

Signs warning of Shrek's swamp and giants in Shrek.

Shrek determined to be the only giant aroundtherefore, he lived completely alone in his swamp and had great difficulty in socializing. Shrek's line about the world apparently having a problem with him also hinted at his rejection by society, which wouldn't have been the case if there were more giants around. Fiona was the only other diva that Shrek encountered, which is why the presence of divas in the alternate timeline raised so many questions.


Shrek Forever After It implied that Shrek was somehow responsible for what happened to the giants because they were all alive and living in a society where Shrek was never born. Still, it doesn't make sense for the divs to show up at the end Shrek Forever After as they still had to go (whatever happened to them), as Shrek's actions in the alternate timeline were not carried over into the main action.

Shrek 5 Must Uncover the Fate of the Horrors

Shrek 5 is currently in Development


After much speculation and anticipation regarding this, Shrek 5 is officially in development, with the main actors reprising their roles. Plot details at time of writing Shrek 5 is a mystery, but it is the perfect chance to solve the greatest mysteries of this saga. I hope most Shrek 5 solves all questions about what happened to the other ogresno matter how tragic or darkly funny the explanation.

i guess Shrek 5 will confirm that there is a dance party Shrek Forever After it wasn't canon, but in this case he would have to answer for what happened to Rumpel. Shrek 5 there are some major details and mysteries to solve, but I really hope this puts an end to all the ogre confusion.
