Shrek 4 Director Announced (Yes There Will Be A Shrek 4)

Shrek The Third hasn’t even hit theatres yet, and already I’m starting to get annoyed by it. I’m annoyed that it’s going to take up valuable theatre space, I’m annoyed that I’m going to have to see ads for it, and I’m annoyed that it’s going to waste everyone’s time. I’ll admit that I liked the first Shrek movie, but the joke was already dead by the time they did a sequel. Now that they’re back for part 3, I’m even less enthused. And guess what? They’ve just announced that part 4 is in the works.

Yes, that’s right, Shrek 4 is going to be directed by Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo director Mike Mitchell. Sounds like the perfect fit, doesn’t it? From one horribly unfunny movie to another. He also recently directed Sky High and Surviving Christmas (I heard Sky High was decent), but I am just hoping this will be the final nail in the coffin for Shrek. I guess one of the problems with having a hugely successful animated franchise is that no one knows when to quit. The voice actors will certainly never say no… it’s gotta be the easiest money in the world for them. What do you think… are you looking forward to Shrek The Third? Is Shrek 4 just going too far?

  1. i dont remember seeing the second flick, i really doubt i will see the third one, and i dont care about a fourth one.

  2. I think these movies are absolutely fantastic! My 2 toddlers; ages 2 1/2 and almost 4 love to watch the same movies over and over and I have to say out of all the childrens movies we have all 3 Shrek movies are always fun to watch over and over. The entire fairy tale meets modern days is ingenious. My husband and I laugh every time and know that too much of a good thing spoils it but I am looking forward to the next one – it’s animated so for me it’s no different than Pink Panther (I love PP) or Scooby Doo episodes….if you like the characters then it doesn’t get old.

  3. well the third one is out now but i think that it was a great movie i am watching it noe actuslly but i think that the 4th one will not be too muvh as the third movie finishes off with shrek having kids and i think that there could be many possibilities for the movie so yer i think that the 4th movie will be injoyed

  4. i hope they will go to shrek 8

  5. I can actually say i love all of the Shrek movies. Yes i agree the first was probably the best, but doesn’t that seem the case with most films? Shrek is a fantastic, original idea that has so many possibilities. I can’t wait for number 4!

  6. i do beleve they wil go to far by makin a number 4 5 6 7 and 8 but i stil like them they just go to far you no wat i mean

  7. I really loved the 1st and 2nd one, but the 3rd..wasn’t as funny. You can tell they really tried. It just turned out dorky. Who knows whats going to happen in the 4th??

  8. what the hell is wrong with you?!?!
    Shrek is an amazing movie okay, and you i think itd be better if you just stated the facts and not your stupid opinion that noone wants to hear.

  9. Hi, Patrick McShittypants here to tell you my opinion is the best opinion.

    Shriek is an amazing film, so my friend Noone Bettencourt told me. This over two year old post from 2007 is more bullshit from the Pricks @ FilmJunk. Here’s to ya!
