SHREK THE HALL"S

Well it is only obvious why Shrek the third stunk... Dreamworks had this little gem up it's sleeve.

this is what Shrek the third should have been. High on comedy,AWESOME soundtrack and a nice little moral at the end. All the characters were great. And I particularly loved Gingy's Christmas story of horror ( it had me rolling) My only complaint was the length of time. It really could've gone an hour to hour and a half and i wouldn't have complained.

This is a wonderful holiday special that will no doubt be added to our family holiday rotation. And in the plus column it was completely family friendly.

If you have a chance see it. I personally can't wait for the DVD.

Fun Stuff



Quotes: Puss in Boots: He was dressed all in fur / From his head to his paws / And he stood there heroic, / A real Santa... Claws. / Red are his boots / And so is his cape; / His sword is a thing / That tastes like crabcake. / He wears a fine belt / And a leather cravat / And there is a cute, fuzzy thing / Which hangs down from his... hat. [purring and tapping on bell]


Donkey: My mama used to always say, 'Christmas ain't Christmas till somebody cries!' Usually that someone's me.



Bookstore Clerk: I know all about Christmas, and I have just the book for you: 'Christmas For Village Idiots.'



Donkey: 'Twas the night before Christmas / And I spent all the day / Finishing up on my Christmas display. / Now missing all this / Would be nothing but tragic, / So just follow me and I'll show you the magic. / Now out in the yard / In a glorious clutter / Is a spectacle there / That'll make your heart flutter. / With 20-foot cheese balls / And a big egg nog fountain / And yodeling elves / On an ambrosia mountain. / A stage where acrobats / Jump, leap, and prance / And honor the day / through interpretive dance.
