The froggy king lad (King Harold) is dying. They also have kids (Fergus, Farkle, and Felicia). In this case… because they’re the heirs apparent to the throne. High up in royalty these days, Shrek and Fiona are so noted among the Far Far Away kingdom they make headline news. RB: Set in a future from the first and second film, things have hotted up for our married green duo. He goes to drink away his sorrows and recruits a band of fairytale villains to his cause. One night they laugh at his performances, which essentially radicalises him into the belief that he is the rightful king of Far Far Away.

Meanwhile, Prince Charming has been relegated to doing dinner theatre for bored guests. Shrek is like “nah” because, famously, he loves his swamp and is quite shit at royal duties, so he goes to find the next heir to the throne, Arthur, who is in medieval high school (would have watched a spinoff movie about this). LO: King Harold – who is now a frog for some reason probably intrinsic to the plot of Shrek 2 that I’ve forgotten – is dying, and Shrek and Fiona, as his son-in-law and daughter, are the heirs to his throne.

VICE UK staffers Lauren O’Neill and Ryan Bassil jumped in too. The below discussion of Shrek the Third is a selection of comments from that chat, as well as some thoughts we received over email.

We'll be posting a follow-up piece later this week.īack to the party, pre-hack. This played on loop and the film never returned. The Netflix Party window appeared to have been overridden and instead of Shrek, it showed a video featuring Wikileaks footage and an appeal to write to your local MP to protest against the extradition of Julian Assange. About halfway through viewing however, things took a turn. Anyway, like usual, we hosted a viewing party on Wednesday night via Netflix Party, where we were joined by VICE readers.
