Shrek Forever After: Out Now!

After all of his adventures, Shrek (Mike Myers) has become a domesticated family ogre. Instead of scaring villagers away as he used to, Shrek agrees to autograph pitchforks. Longing for the days when he felt like a "real ogre", Shrek is tricked into signing a pact with the smooth-talking deal maker, Rumpelstiltskin (Walt Dohrn), who offers Shrek a day where everything will be as if his adventures had never happened. Shrek can't resist the offer- all he wanted was a day off to relax, to be a real ogre again. However, to get a day off, Shrek needs to give up a day from his childhood. However, after signing the contract, Shrek soon discovers he has been tricked: the day that he unwittingly gave away was the day he was born.

Having never existed, Shrek finds himself in a twisted, alternate version of Far Far Away, where Rumpelstiltskin is now king (because King Harold and Queen Lillian were originally going to give him the kingdom in exchange for him ending Fiona's curse, but refused after getting news that Shrek had rescued Fiona); ogres are hunted; Donkey (Eddie Murphy) has never met Shrek, is forced into cart-pulling duty and fears him; Gingy (Conrad Vernon) is a gladiator fighting animal crackers; Puss in Boots (Antonio Banderas) has become fat and lazy; and Fiona (Cameron Diaz) is still under her curse from the first movie (to become human by day and ogress by night until she receives "True Love's Kiss"), can't stand Shrek, and has become the leader of an underground resistance of other hunted ogres.

But even though all seems lost, there's still hope - if Shrek shares "True Love's Kiss" with Fiona by the sunrise of the next day, the contract he signed will be rendered null and void and the original timeline will be restored. However, Rumpelstiltskin will do anything to stop Shrek and solidify the power he now has.

Shrek The Third Arrives!

The second most awaited-for movie of the summer has arrived. Tomorrow, May 18th, Dreamwork's film "Shrek The Third" hits all big screens in the States. The past two movies were huge at the Box Office, and this one probably will do just as good, if not better. This movie features voices from Mike Myers as Shrek, Cameron Diaz as Princess Fiona, Eddy Murphy as Donkey, Antonio Banderas as Puss in Boots, and Justin Timberlake as Artie. I'm excited about this one, Shrek movies are always great! I'll be waiting in line tomorrow.
