@@ansumanahargett6227 Mostly because the movie began development a year after DreamWorks was created and after Toy Story came out in 1995, they began test animation with Chris Farley as Shrek. Early scripts had a teenage Shrek who was kicked out by his family and acts like Casper by wanting to befriend people and disguise himself as a Knight in King Hamilton's palace and loves Fiona before he's exposed and is forced to fight the dragon in a Gladiator style fight. Before rewriting it to the actual story we got with a fee difference. Shrek was still aimed to be gullible and nice while Fiona was bitchy and was originally voiced by Janeane Garofalo and work began in 1997 or a 1999 release, filling Antz original release date. However after Chris Farley died, they recast Mike Myers hot off of Austin Powers the same year and reworked the storyline. Switching Shrek and Fiona's personalities after they felt Fiona was too unlikeable versus Myers's new grumpy Shrek and made her a Disney princess parody who's very sweet and nice and the movie's animation wouldn't officially start up again until 1998 with it's 2001 release. Simply put, animators learning GGI, script rewrites, unfortunate passings, recasts and delays.
Not really considering the original Chris Farley animation test from 1996 was designed to have a dark Gothic look for the film according to the animator.
Thanks for sharing these scenes. I think i liked the Fiona opening scene and the Farquad expansion plan the most of the three. Although i did enjoy the mine scene. I kind of seewhy they probably cut it out for time and story advancement. Still had a good time watching it. And i liked the version we eventually got. 💚👍
I liked the idea that Fiona really is an ogre. later in the 2nd story with the whole god mother thing. it just makes the conspiracy stronger about Fiona. maybe the next movie if there well be a next movie. it would be full cycle and explain why everyone don't like ogres. besides the fact they're gross. also what if there actually more ogres out there. because in the 4th movie in a different timeline there were so many of them. while in the normal timeline we only see Shrek and Fiona. are the rest hiding the whole time or are those two really are the last ones?
Im so glad that we have our Shrek
Me too
@@ansumanahargett6227 I mean to be fair DreamWorks took a long time to make Shrek
@@Sigmagreek235 Why they spent the late 90s trying to come up with this movie because this film came out in 2001
You guys did an awesome job!

The realest of the real Shrek fans are found here
Yup

YUP, USE TO WATCH THESE ON THE DVD ALL THE TIME😭💖
6:20 loved that they showed Jeffery after the Disney reference😭
These boards seem to show that Shrek was a lot more cartoony and silly during development, as opposed to the more grounded route the final film took.

David Lowery was recently head of story on the lion king remake, he did his best efforts
I kinda wish the scene with Shrek and Farquad was kept in the final film.
3:13 Shrek:koo koo,koo koo.

Donkey: You must be this tall to enter the mine. Hey Shrek, I don’t think this is such a good idea.
Shrek: GET IN DONKEY!

I'm kinda sad the farquaad scene and the mine cart scene got cut, they're very funny
I just love, where this is going!
Yup. I'm glad all these were cut
I’m actually surprised they put a lot of effort into the idea of the film
I think they changed it up to be more slightly realistic and fit historically instead
