Shrek Forever After

Shrek is back....really!? I mean, the Shrek movies are good and all, but does anyone really think they're brilliant enough to surpass a trilogy? I will admit, if the producers of Shrek were trying to make up for the 3rd installment, they succeeded. But a bag of poop could have done the same thing...

As for the 4th (and hopefully FINAL) Shrek film, I thought the story was no more than "cute." I enjoyed the character of Rumpelstiltskin as an evildoer, and I absolutely LOVED the witches as his henchwomen. It was also fun to see the alternate lives of Puss, Donkey, and Fiona. Even so, the Gingerbread Man always knows how to steal the show.

If I had to see this movie again, I would need:

2 RED BULLS!

But if there are any producers out their reading this, hear my plea....good things happen in THREE for a reason! Don't try to over do it....

P.S. James Bond is the only franchise that has SUCCESSFULLY SURPASSED the trilogy mark, and for good reason! But, unfortunately, Shrek is no James Bond...

Top 15 Movies!!! (sort of....) ;)

RULES: Don't take too long to think about it. Name fifteen films you've seen that will always stick with you. The first fifteen you can recall. Comment with your own fifteen so that we can compare. And......GO! :)

1. Shawshank Redemption

2. First Wives Club

3. Finding Nemo

4. Titanic

5. Sister Act

6. Sister Act 2: Back in the Habbit

7. The Star Wars Saga (I'm counting it, even though it's 6 films...) ;)

8. Lord of the Rings trilogy (also counting it...)

9. Back to the Future trilogy (I think this trilogy is even better than Star Wars and LOTR when put together...)

10. Wall-E

11. A League of Their Own

12. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (this film completely changed the Harry Potter franchise for the better...)

13. Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix (best of the HP films, by far...)

14. Goldfinger (best of the James Bond films...)

15. Babes in Toyland (starring Keanu Reeves and Drew Barrymore...it's a classic!)

I have to admit, this was harder than I thought! Also, please note that these are some of my FAVORITE movies, and NOT 15 of the best films ever made! To me they might be, but in terms of criteria for the "best of the best," I would go with a few more classics than more recent blockbuster hits. The films above are movies that I can watch over and over and over again. Even after watching them once, I could watch them again immediately.

So then, the next question is....

What are YOUR top 15 movies??? (Comment below to let me know...)

Thanks! :)
