The Ghost of Lord Farquaad Trailers

Lord Farquaad was eaten by the dragon, but his ghost has returned, and he's still evil. With the help of his henchman, Thelonious, he kidnaps Fiona. Shrek and the donkey set out to save her, with help from the dragon, before she goes over a waterfall on a raft. This entry is for the 2-D version released on, for example, DVD and Netflix.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

This takes place right after Shrek and Fiona marry. The ghost of Farquad had his dumb henchman kidnap Fiona--as the dead guy is STILL determined to marry her. But, as she's alive and he isn't, he needs to have her killed first. Can our heroes rescue her before it's too late?I was very surprised to see this film on DVD and on Netflix, as it originally was just intended as a 3-D film that is still being shown at Universal Studios. I've seen the film several times at Universal Orlando and when you see it on TV it loses not only the 3-D but the immersive theater experience. Rumbling seats and effects that take place throughout the theater are missing. Still, it's worth seeing. I'd give it a 7 in its none 3-D mode (yes, I know they say it's 4-D but ask any physicist about this) and a 9 at Universal Studios.

I did not hate the actual featurette, what I hated was that it was only sold in addition to Shrek 1, which everyone and his brother already owned, and had to buy again, just to get this 15-minute bridge into Shrek 2.It was a shameless marketing ploy designed to shove a second copy of the original movie down the consumers' throats, regardless of whether they had already purchased the original movie, or NOT. It was George Lucasesque in its gross thoughtlessness for the fans, and Dreamworks was considered to be above those shady tactics.The featurette should have been made available - at a REASONABLE PRICE - without forcing the consumer to buy another copy of a movie they already had.The practice employed here rates a 0/10.The featurette itself, for what it was, rates a 4/10 from...the Fiend :.

I was in Hollywood in the summer of 2003 and I saw this when I visited Universal Theme park.This was a funny "ride" as you watched the 3-D video on the giant theatre screen the chairs moved along with the movie,like when the carriage the characters were riding in went over a bump in the road the seats shook as if you were riding in the carriage alongside the characters in the movie.and when donkey sneezed,you felt a spray of water hit your face.and in the scene where there are spiders crawling on the ground you feel something brush your leg.A real fun experience to both young and old.

This ride isn't half bad. Though it tends to reuse jokes from the film, it's still got cool fx and you feel the action (when Donkey sneezes, for example, the audience is sprayed). It's not the best ride at Universal- that's of course Spider-Man. But it's fun if you can avoid the long lines.
