Far Far Away Idol

Very funny. If you don't like it don't worry it's only 9 minutes

Simon is a Canon character in the shrek universe. Need I say more?

Well 150 characters says otherwise - so basically it's super short, and just the fact this even exists is funny to me. If I played this as an adult now it wouldn't be anywhere near as funny as it was when I was a child but I respect the creators for that little extra content. There was also a quiz on the dvd, it really creeped me out as a kid because it was just... dead silent, and super out of place for shrek, it made me feel like I was being watched 😭

My only complaints about this short are that they used Prince Charming and that they continued to have Doris continue to hit on him even though in the movie she only kissed him to prevent him from grabbing the wand. I still liked the short, and if it weren't for those things, I would have loved it. My favorite character was Puss in Boots, as always, but my favorite song was his, tied with Shrek's and Fiona's. If it weren't for the complaints, this short would have actually added substance to the story, but instead it's more like a game that's just a little bit too silly goofy and doesn't really contribute to anything.

The whole Shrek 2 experience wasn't my taste anyway (I thought the original was way better), and this extra they put on isn't as funny either. It sure ain't of the standard of The Shrek in the Swamp Karaoke Party on the DVD of Shrek.

All of the major characters can sing a song in this one, judged by no other than Shrek, Fiona and our very own Simon Cowell. But it all just seems so much less funny and spontaneous than the aforementioned Party in the Swamp. As Shrek 2, there's a serious lack of wit, enthusiasm and charm. Well, that's my opinion, anyway.

If I had to rate this: 4/10.

I thought both of the Shrek movies were great!! The subtle comments made both movies equally amazing. I was very pleased that Skrek 2 held up not only the original voices but the quality of the comedy as well. I love having them as part of my movie collection! Some people may mock it because it's animated, but they knew that when it started so they don't have much room to talk. Out of all my friends and family members (which varies from loggers to preps) there was only two people who would have rather watched something else. I also thought that the extras were not just cute, but adorable! (I wish they would have had more!)
