a long long time ago in a faraway land there lived a green loving husband with
a beautiful green wife and he was responsible for some of the most
horrifying memes on the internet yes we're talking about Shrek as messed up
as the Internet's obsession is with everyone's favorite green ogre his
movies are fun happy and endearing teaching us that you don't need to be
perfect to love and to be loved in return that it's possible for anyone
even an ogre to live happily ever after take a look at me what am I really tall
but like the dark memes the Internet has unleashed upon us bands have come
together to create theories about the Shrek films that are also really dark
and creepy I'm Brad with wicked binge and these are creepy theories about
Shrek that will keep you up at night let's get started what Shrek was an
outcast in ancient folklore ogres have been described as cruel huge and ugly
man-like creatures who feed on normal humans they'll make a soup from your
freshly peeled skin No they're said to have disproportionately large heads to
physically Shrek fits into the ogre category quite well but looking at his
behavior nature we can't describe him as inhuman or violent at all reddit user
Gary Stoneman pointed out that it's likely that Shrek might be an outcast
from his own ogre community When in Rome do as the Romans do they say but this
did not suit shrek at all he doesn't delight in having a brutal lifestyle
killing humans or fighting other creatures his refusal to participate in
any of the ogre activities led him to be exiled going away from his community
Shrek tried to live in peace along with humans now how would you behave if an
enormous green man tried to talk to you all of a sudden of course you'd run home
scare to your mommy
likewise people around him were too afraid to befriend this big man and live
in his vicinity unable to make any friends and develop relationships he got
bitter towards living beings upset and frustrated with others he decided to
live far away from society in isolation in his swamp until the fairytale
creatures were sent to disturb his solitude and that's how the legendary
movies start out fiona wasn't cursed in the first part of Shrek
fiona was shown to be human during the day and an ogre during the night and
only true love's kiss can make the change permanent but in Shrek to become
to know that her dad King Harold was a frog he was turned into a human because
the fairy godmothers magic and Queen Lillian's love so the King is nothing
but a frog with a human makeover so that makes his daughter Fiona inherit frog
characteristics as well as human characteristics that means she was
essentially just a human with partial frog traits right in a tower
well reddit user come on now suggested that this was why fiona had an unusual
appearance during the night and she was not cursed at all fairy godmother was
overly smart and took advantage of the situation to have her son succeed on the
throne now according to many European folktales
a fairies magic is worn off because of sunlight so Fiona's inherent frog
characteristics do not remain hidden during the night now to make permanent
changes she had to have true love's kiss but since she's a kid and she couldn't
possibly fall in love with anyone yet fairy godmother lays out a twisted plan
she advises Harold to lock up Fiona in a tower so that nobody could know about
her condition and she'd remain isolated than to await
the kiss of the handsome prince Shami fairy godmother was sure that
Fiona would fall in love with the first man she came across so she plans that
her son Charming will go and rescue our damsel in distress he's
kiss break the dreaded curse changing her permanently into human form Fiona is
a cannibal fiona has been living in the tower ever since she was a kid right and
the tower as you can clearly see it's high enough to keep people from entering
it so that makes reddit user Freud stir question what she eats
so while speculating and observing the movie many are compelled to agree with
the ghastly conclusion Fiona eats humans let's take a look at why
this is likely to be true Fiona lives with a dragon it protects her and does
not let anyone else get nearer so it probably even feeds her and the dragon
feet sir what kind of food well you can see that when Shrek and Fiona are
leaving the tower there's a big cauldron in a recipe book named Knightly treats
by the looks of it many seem to think that the dragon is cooking the nights
and eating them alright so maybe the dragon just feeds Fiona the Knights
horses nope earlier in the film when Shrek and
Donkey are about to cross the rope bridge we can see Knights horses left to
die that means Fiona feeds on the Knights to
another perspective on this conclusion would be that Fiona eats only when she's
an ogre form at night also when Shrek rescues Fiona during the daytime she's
asleep this further supports the hypothesis that she eats during the
night and sleeps during the day that means human Fiona doesn't eat the night
but the ogre Fiona yeah she's eating them all right all
right I get it would that still be considered as
cannibalism I smell loophole carrion Fiona
Rumpelstiltskin could have erased another day I wish
was never boy in shrek forever after Rumpelstiltskin is shown to have a race
today shrek was born this changed the course of the story in favor of Rumple
and memories of shrek were also wiped out from everyone's life have a nice day
but if you think about it carefully you'd see that Rumple could have deleted
another day that would have caused plenty of problems and altered the story
almost just like it happened in the movie you cited so tell me what happens
now what they could that be any guesses alright so the day I'm talking about is
a day when donkey in Shrek man let's analyze what could have happened if that
day vanished okie dokie so even if he manages to become friends with donkey
and save Fiona alone or not just like it happened in the first movie the damage
still would have been done Rumple steel got canceled at the very last moment
when the king and queen got the news of Fiona's rescue so even a small delay in
saving Fiona would have already made Rumple the king of far far away
also there will be problems of only Shrek's memory remain on alter in the
movie because he was never supposed to be in existence he becomes an outsider
in this timeline but it Rumple just took away one other day Shrek's memories
could be overwritten taking away the day Shrek and Donkey met could have made
their friendship go down the drain in no time
also since donkeys a key character to have saved Shrek twice or more wiping
this me relation could have changed the course in rumple's favor that means far
far away would be ruled by Rumple just like how we see in Shrek 4 but with
little differences now let's analyze the four timelines that could have possibly
occurred timeline 1 Shrek and Donkey started the truck to the lock the day
they met if they never became friends naturally Shrek wouldn't leave his swamp
at all but let's say even if he managed to go to the lock and meet donkey on the
way there's no guarantee that they would have become pals eventually truck would
have to face the dragon alone so there's a pretty good chance that he wouldn't
have made it out alive so in this timeline it's likely that he fails at
rescuing Fiona and dies this pretty much replicates a scenario we come across in
shrek forever after timeline 2 now let's again change the ending a bit
shrek fights the dragon alone and manages to rescue Fiona but they never
share true love's kiss well it was donkey who convinces them to
admit their feelings to each other so the absence of our Cupid - stops
trekking Fiona's Union this would create a future like that of Shrek for fiona
would eventually get into ogre resistance and would meet shrek again
timeline 3 so now let's assume that Shrek and Fiona did share true love's
kiss then the story would proceed just like it did in one and Rumpel succeeded
in taking over far far away so Shrek 2 & 3 never occur in this timeline Rumble
would still try to take overs as we see in Shrek 4 but this time Shrek hasn't
saved donkey but they still manage to become friends so in this case donkey
would be a part of resistance right from the start that means you might not know
how to figure out the exit cause Shrek and Fiona are already in love so true
love's kiss wasn't going to be their Savior this time timeline for well now
just assume that things happen exactly as they did in Shrek 1 an ruffles
smartly just delay the breaking of the news - Fiona's parents the princess
she's been saved so Rumple rules over far far away and Shrek and Fiona live
happily ever after in their swamp the ogre couple what's a Far Far Away only
because the king and queen called them at the beginning of struck - you are
hereby summoned to the kingdom of far far away so the parents never call in
Shrek 2 & 3 would never happen this could have been a win-win situation
for both which is a bit scary this theory just highlights how
important true friendship can be keep your friends close kids what do you
think do any of these theory seem legit let us know in the comment section below
