Shrek Quiz: Which "Shrek" Character Are You?

Shrek is a 2001 American computer-animated comedy film loosely based on the William Steig 1990 children's picture book of the same name. Directed by Andrew Adamson and Vicky Jenson in their directorial debuts, it features Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, and John Lithgow as the voices of the main characters. The film makes fun of other fairy tale remakes, particularly those aimed at animated Disney films.

Shrek is a love story set in a fairy tale world. Shrek is an ogre who lives in the swamp and discovers his paradise being taken over by fairytale creatures that have been driven out by Lord Farquaad, a corrupt ruler aspiring to be king. In exchange for regaining control of his swamp, Shrek agrees to rescue Princess Fiona, whom Farquaad plans to marry. Shrek sets out on his journey with the aid of Donkey (Murphy), but he quickly falls in love with the princess, who hides a secret that will alter his life forever.

Shrek is a globally renowned and popular animated film franchise. They produced four box-office blockbusters, but the fourth was described by DreamWorks as "the final chapter" in all of its advertising and posters, so it felt like it was over. However, they made fans' dreams come true when they announced plans to make a fifth film a few years ago. It has a script, although the picture may not be released until 2020. Whether it takes longer than that or not, it will be well worth the wait!

Shrek and Fiona's love story is a beautiful, genuinely human tale that mashes together a wonderful satirical take on traditional fairy tale folklore with a really fantastic love story. Shrek subverts the genre norms in the same manner that The Princess Bride did, by making characters who are often the bad guys or supporting characters in fairy tales into heroes.

The Shrek franchise has a large following – some of whom refer to themselves as "Brogres" and participate in onion-eating contests – so determining who is the biggest will be difficult. Take this quiz if you believe you're up to it!
