After battling a fire-breathing dragon and the evil Lord Farquaad to win the hand of Princess Fiona, Shrek now faces his greatest challenge: the in-laws. Shrek and Princess Fiona return from their honeymoon to find an invitation to visit Fiona’s parents, the King and Queen of the Kingdom of Far, Far Away. With Donkey along for the ride, the newlyweds set off. All of the citizens of Far, Far Away turn out to greet their returning Princess, and her parents happily anticipate the homecoming of their daughter and her new Prince. But no one could have prepared them for the sight of their new son-in-law, not to mention how much their little girl had…well…changed. Little did Shrek and Fiona know that their marriage had foiled all of her father’s plans for her future…and his own. Now the King must enlist the help of a powerful Fairy Godmother, the handsome Prince Charming and that famed ogre killer Puss In Boots to put right his version of "happily ever after."

November 24, 2004: Puss-in-Boots is go:
It seems that crazy cat Puss-in-Boots from SHREK 2 (voiced by Antonio Banderas) was such a hit with the execs that they're giving him his own movie. In fact, DreamWorks has hired Ed Decter and John Strauss to pen the film. Don't whip out the balloons and...
May 24, 2004: INT: Antonio Banderas:
All the major players may be back,
but the surprise of SHREK
2 is that the biggest laughs come from a newcomer. The character
of Puss In Boots, played by Antonio Banderas, steals the show as a feline
assassin sent to hunt down Shrek. After...
May 21, 2004: INT: Shrek 2 directors:
I'll let you in on a little secret: when critics, journalists
and other pretentious people see a hugely commercial, blockbuster film that they
enjoy, they'll use words like "fun" or "entertaining" to
describe it. It's their way of admitting they liked...

February 16, 2004: New Shrek 2 trailer:
Despite enjoying the heck out of the original SHREK ,
I can't say that I was too excited upon hearing of the sequel, mostly because
the first one felt (and still does) like a stand-alone fairy-tale that didn't
require a follow-up. That said, the...

October 24, 2003: Here Pussy Pussy...:
I thoroughly enjoyed SHREK the first time around. So much so that I stormed out and contributed to the (since eclipsed) record setting first day DVD sales. But unfortunately, upon repeated viewings, it seems to have lost a lot of the humor that had me rolling in...

A couple pieces of notable news regarding two "high-ly an-tici-pated, never over-stimu-lated, sure-to-be re-fridg-erated" animated films from Dreamworks Pictures to pass along today. Sorry about that little rhyming rant by the way, Don King was on Jimmy Kimmel...
