note For instance, some fans were baffled by her exclusion from Shrek Forever After, due to the fact that Fiona in the alternate universe was still cursed, and would have wanted to see what human Fiona looked like as a warrior. Some find her design to be adorable, beautiful, sexy, and more conventionally attractive than her ogre form, and wish that human Fiona would make a reappearance of some sort. Overall, the fanbase's opinion of Donkey is much like Shrek's own. He's either hilarious, lovable, and part of the charm and soul of the series, or just plain annoying to the point of being The Load at times, especially in the sequels where his annoying tendencies are flanderized. To be fair, Shrek is also rendered helpless against the guard, but he at least gets some good hits in, which they could've easily let Fiona do. Badass Decay: Fiona goes from being able to take down Robin Hood's entire band of outlaws.to being helpless against one guard and Lord Farquaad wielding only a small dagger, in the space of half a movie.Award Snub: There was serious buzz about Eddie Murphy becoming the first voice actor to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, which seemed to be a sure thing after the acclaim and the fact his performance became the very first voice acting role nominated for a BAFTA.

This is reflected in the evolution of the franchise's toyline: the first movie had a line of highly detailed collectibles by McFarlane Toys note yes, by Todd Mc Farlane of Spawn fame that could be appreciated by both kids and adults (just like the movie), while the toylines for the sequels (by Hasbro and MGA) were far cheaper and more gimmicky, and no longer targeted the Periphery Demographic of action figure collectors.

This caused the series to eventually gain a reputation of being "for kids", just like what happened to the Flintstones and Muppets. However, as time went on and Shrek became a Cash Cow Franchise, marketing for the movies became more kid-focused even as the content of the movies was only slightly toned down. Animation Age Ghetto: Like The Flintstones and The Muppet Show did back in their day, the first Shrek was meant to appeal to both children and adults without seemingly favoring one group over the other, with its edgy humor and pop-culture references giving it a grittier vibe than other animated movies at the time - especially the Disney Animated Canon, which had a reputation for being "squeaky-clean".What's even weirder is that the stage play shows Fiona in Go Mad from the Isolation mode due to being locked inside for twenty-three years, and Shrek Forever After shows that Fiona made multiple scratch marks on the wall before busting out as a Broken Bird. The sequel has Shrek more upset about it than Fiona is, saying that it was wrong for her own parents to put her in a Gilded Cage prison with only Dragon for company. Fiona's actually more upset that her rescuer was an ogre, and she gets over that fairly quickly in one night after hearing Shrek lamenting that no one ever gets a chance to know him. We see she's fairly adjusted, despite the fact that Shrek points out how many knights were burned alive while trying to rescue her, and unlike Shrek, they didn't try to approach her tower first. Angst? What Angst?: Fiona has been locked in the tower since she was a child, because according to her a witch cursed her, and only a hero willing to rescue her could give her a kiss of true love.Alternative Joke Interpretation: It's arguable if Farquaad was "compensating" for his height or the size of his penis.And his men only attacked Fiona in retaliation. Alternative Character Interpretation: Sure, Monsieur Hood definitely seemed like a French Jerk, but keep in mind he didn't know Shrek was a good guy.So much was added to this little story that about the only thing it and the movies have in common is.a grumpy ogre named Shrek, a donkey (who is quickly forgotten about), a brief obstacle of a dragon, and a princess. Adaptation Displacement: You probably won't find a lot of people who have even heard of Shrek! by William Steig (and if they did, it's likely they first heard of it by watching the credits of a Shrek film).
