New "Shrek" Title; New "Shrek" Story
JoBlo brings us the latest word on what's going down in Shrekworld, and it seems that the second sequel will NOT be called "Shrek 3," but instead "Shrek the Third," as if that makes any sort of difference. Aside from the stunning bit of news, DreamWorks also treated us to a mini-synopsis, which you can read right here...
"SHREK THE THIRD finds Shrek and Fiona reluctantly reigning over Far, Far Away. But if they can find the heir to the throne and bring him back, they can return to their swamp. While Shrek, Donkey and Puss in Boots are in search of the heir, Fiona holds off a coup d’etat by Prince Charming."
Returning for a third go-round are Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, and Eddie Murphy, and they'll be rejoined by sequel-pals Julie Andrews, John Cleese, Rupert Everett, and Antonio Banderas. Oh, and Justin Timberlake is in there, too, just so you know...

on Mar 23 2006 08:45 AM Funny, I reported this yesterday from my site crediting the SOurce Moviehole. They reject it, yet Joblo reports the same thing a day later and it gets credited. Below is what I sent it Wednesday at 8:30 A.M. nonymous Tomato writes According to Moviehole.net Shrek 3 will be titled “Shrek the Third”. The film follows the an Arthurian Legend twists and deald with The new film finds Shrek and Fiona reluctantly reigning over Far, Far Away. But if they can find the heir to the throne and bring him back, they can return to their swamp. While Shrek, Donkey and Puss in Boots are in search of the heir, Fiona holds off a coup d'etat by Prince Charming. Look for the film in Summer 2007 (Reply to this) |

on Mar 23 2006 12:20 PM These movies are terrible. I remember when I finally sat down and watched the first one two years ago after much prompting and praise from just about anyone who'd seen it. I was shocked to see how lame it was. A lot of clever and "cutsey-wutsey" sight gags and references with no story. Count me out, but i'm sure this will be a huge hit. (Reply to this) |
