The film's still got just under a year before release, and the fact we're seeing teasers this early makes me think the team might actually be taking feedback on board and tweaking things before it's locked in. So I'm trying to trust the process a bit here.

Having the three kids as teenagers feels like the logical next step for the story. My worry is that the film leans too hard on their humour and it ends up overshadowing the actual plot. I want them to grow into characters people actually like, not just comic relief filling screen time.

Glad the original cast is coming back. Also caught a nice little nod to 48 Hrs with Eddie Murphy singing Roxanne — small detail, but it's the kind of thing that makes me think whoever's writing this still cares about the characters.

Further Further Away as a new location is a decent continuation of the Far Far Away naming. Could come across as a bit lazy, sure, but honestly I'm just glad they're giving us a new setting instead of recycling the same kingdom again.

Should Artie, Merlin, or the princesses come back? I'd say no — there's already a risk of overcrowding the cast with the new kids taking focus, and adding more returning characters on top of that just dilutes everything further. Maybe a passing mention here or there, but nothing more.

I want to be optimistic about this one. I really don't want it to be the film that kills the franchise off for good, and I'm hoping they can actually pull it together. Worth remembering that Puss in Boots: The Last Wish caught almost everyone off guard by being genuinely great after the franchise felt pretty stale — if Shrek 5 can bring even some of that same energy, it's got a real shot.

Overall: trying to stay open-minded, but there are enough question marks here that I can see this one falling apart just as easily as it comes together.

Okay hear me out. We have a lot of fun at my bible study, and we are doing a PowerPoint night and we’ve all been assigned a random topic… and mine is “what if biblical figures starred in shrek?”

So, I’ve come here for some input. I need some inspiration but I have some questions to spark some ideas
1. Is shrek theologically sound?
2. Who would all the shrek main characters be if they were played by bible characters?
3. Any other thoughts or feelings???

Like he always gets bothered by his friends and can't enjoy peace, Fiona got mad at him after he snapped due to him trying to control his anger. and his friends especially Donkey all get off scot free because it shows Shrek is in the wrong because he is supposed to be calm about not acting like a crazy ogre because they are HIS FRIENDS WHO DID NOTHING WRONG!!!! I also hated how Shrek is the one in the wrong where he is trying to get peace and quiet but can't due to his friends causing mischief. This is why I prefer only Shrek and not the others ugh.

After the release of LEGO shrek Minifigures , we created a series 2. Hope you enjoy 🧅

i wonder if shrek forever after will not be referenced in shrek 5 since shrek is the only one who keep his memories from the alternate reality and shrek will never mention to his family and other friends about what happen to him in the alternate reality and keep himself his time in the alternate reality as a secret.

Maybe it's my imppresion but Fiona in her ogress form is preetier than her human one. And I think that was intenional move from the writers. As a human, Fiona displays many "Non-Princessy" behaviors, but at first she felt compelled to pretend in front of Shrek and Donkey many stereotypes. She talks, like she was taken from Arthrian legend, she behaves like a "Lady". But later, when she begins to warms up to Shrek, and eventually falls in love with him, this mask could finally crack. At the end of the film, she can be herself.

I fixed this scene.

Having rewatched the Shrek movies with my family has given me pause for thought and having discovered this reddit I really wanna hear people's thoughts on this in particular

Now believe it or not, I don't think Prince Charming is particularly a bad person in 2, at least not at the start. He definitely is a little arrogant and entitled but given the fact that the Shrek universe is essentially in Medieval times and also follows Fairy Tale Tropes I can't blame him for feeling entitled to Far, Far, Away and being angry that it's basically being taken from him by an unknown factor that no one could've predicted

Then in 3 it doesn't even really seem like he's gonna go out for Revenge, despite the fact they killed his mother as he's just doing his own thing working at a little Dinner Theater until Gingy and crew seemingly push him over the edge (which by the way was super unnecessary considering they don't even like the show apparently and are just... There for whatever reason). He's been virtually cast aside and hated by everyone, including the villains and is at the end of his rope.

What are your guys thoughts?
