I'm not saying Dreamworks should make a spin-off on Fairy Godmother but I do need to know just how deep her influence goes.

Why was making a wish with her so fanciful and pretty yet Rumpelstiltskin has to do his deal-making from a carriage in the woods.

What would she had done if Farquad married Fiona. I personally would love to know how Fairy Godmother would have systematically and economically lead Duloc to ruin just to in sure Charming be the King of Far Far Away.

Was Lillian always supposed to marry Harold? Who is Charming's father? Just how did she become this way?

So after Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, I’ve seen a few jokes about Death the Wolf being present for every Death in the Shrek franchise (Fairy Godmother’s death in Shrek 2, Harold’s or Charming’s death in Shrek The Third, etc)

Meanwhile - if we’re taking Shrek 4-D as canon - I’m  picturing Death side- eyeing Farquaad’s ghost. Especially when he declared that he will rule the Underworld. Which depending on the folklore, is more often than not the Death’s domain, be it a god of death, or an angel of death.

Bottom line, while Farquaad’s ghost was plotting to kill Fiona, Death was at the river’s edge, sharpening his sickles. And considering Farquaad was A. an arrogant prick and B. a spirit at this point ? He may have very well seen Death all the while.

-----

Farquaad’s Ghost: “You might as well stop struggling, Princess; soon, you and I will be together forever. With you as my spirit Queen, I will be King of the Underworld!”

Death The Wolf: (chuckles humorlessly) “Oh, you audaz hijo de puta.”

The cast is yet to be announced, but A-list actors being courted are thought to include Hayden Christensen, who played Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars franchise, as William, and Tom Hiddleston, who became a household name playing Loki, the arch enemy of Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as Harold.

A shoot is being planned for next year, in Australia and New Zealand as well as the UK.

Interesting. I could see Tom in either lead role Harold OR William, tbh.

who would have thought a rewatch of shrek1 and shrek2 could lead to this ......

Propaganda

King Harold: He agreed to put a curse on his daughter, lock her away and isolate her, and force her to marry Charming for his own selfish reasons. And tried to kill her husband. Even though he did eventually come around he still was a bad parent

Buck Cluck: He watches his already vulnerable son get bullied by an entire town and joins in because he is deeply ashamed and insecure due to being a single father recovering from trauma. He repeatedly doesn't believe in his sons abilities and refuses to listen to Chicken Little's desires and fears, providing him with seclusion and loneliness and a fear of attachment with zero family bonds and trust issues. Evidently he endorsed his child's bully, Foxxie, solely because she is town's favourite and resembles his own achievements in baseball. He only turns around when it’s the end of the world and the other option is death.

King Harold is from Shrek 2

Buck Cluck is from Chicken Little

Ok, so I’m binge watching the Shrek movies, and while watching Shrek 2 I think I found a plot hole.

Shrek 2 starts of with the classic storybook intro by Prince Charming while he’s just then making it the the tower where Fiona was kept. He finds the Big Bad Wolf in Fiona’s place and we assume that he immediately returns to Far Far Away, only returning when Fairy Godmother goes to find King Harold on the balcony.

Obviously Fiona is gone, and so is Dragon, the viewers know this but in universe Charming, and by proxy, Fairy Godmother and the rest of Far Far Away don’t know this.

Now, King Harold and Queen Lillian weren’t, to our knowledge, notified of Fiona’s rescue by Shrek and Donkey or her subsequent marriage to Lord Farquaad, nor were they at the wedding.

So my question is this: if Harold and Lillian weren’t notified of Fiona’s rescue, or at her wedding, and the prince they intended to save her failed and didn’t return until after Fiona and Shrek were married and in Far Far Away, then HOW did “Sargent Pompous and the Fancy Pants Club Band” know where to find Fiona?
