This makes me happy.

One of my favorite movies of the past several years is Shrek. Howlingly funny, great music, lots of little gags to pick up on when rewatching, and one of the few movie romances I've found truly moving. I was, honestly, not too thrilled when I heard they were doing a sequel, because sequels usually suck, and anyway, how do you do a sequel to a fairy tale? I was imagining all those dreadful Disney straight-to-video sequels (think Cinderella 2: Electric Boogaloo). Well, here's a pleasant surprise:

Shrek 2 even better than Shrek

"At one point, Donkey turns to Puss-in-Boots with the withering comment, 'I'm sorry, but the position of annoying talking animal has already been taken.'"

Rock on.

Shrek rules. Anything that can make that much fun of itself and get away with it just owns permanently. I can still make myself giggle with that damn bird scene and the eggs followup - and the trailer for Shrek 2 is veeeery promising indeed. :D
