6 | !! ''WesternAnimation/Shrek1'' |
7 | * The opening is a direct reference to ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty''. |
8 | * Donkey's [[http://i.imgur.com/Xyrapvm.gif "That's a nice boulder"]] is a reference to ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvester_and_the_Magic_Pebble Sylvester and the Magic Pebble]]'' by the same author as ''Shrek''. The "boulder" was a donkey who turned himself into one to escape from danger but couldn't turn back when he couldn't reach the pebble. Fortunately his parents found him and wished him back. |
9 | * Robin Hood and his musicians could be from any whimsical version of the story, but most likely ''Film/RobinHoodMenInTights''. Fiona's subsequent thrashing of them is likely an homage to ''Film/CrouchingTigerHiddenDragon'' but blatantly parodies ''Film/TheMatrix'' (that sequence in particular may have been added basically at the last minute, something that would have been impossible with hand-drawn animation). |
10 | * There are three fairies with the same color scheme as [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather]]. |
11 | * When Donkey manages to make it to the other side of the bridge through some panicking, Shrek pats his head and says, "That'll do, Donkey. That'll do." This is a reference to the final line of ''Film/{{Babe}}'' - "That'll do, pig. That'll do." |
12 | * When looking at the constellations, Shrek points out Bloodnok the Flatulent, a reference to Major Bloodnok from Radio/TheGoonShow. |
13 | * The Kingdom of Duloc is a big reference/TakeThat at Disneyland, with the dolls signing "Welcome to Duloc" being a pastiche of ''Ride/ItsASmallWorld''. In fact, the song has a segment with identical rhythm (the melody is different) to the verse of the aforementioned. |
14 | * When Farquaad asks the Mirror for a girl to marry, he offers three bachelorettes in the style of ''Series/TheDatingGame''. |
15 | * Donkey's line, "You might have seen a housefly, maybe even a ''Film/SuperFly'', but you ain't never seen a donkey fly" is likely a reference to the song "When I see an elephant fly" from ''WesternAnimation/{{Dumbo}}'', which made similar puns. |
16 | ** Right before that, a reference to Disney's ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'': |
17 | -->'''Peter Pan:''' He can fly!\ |
18 | '''3 Pigs:''' He can fly!\ |
19 | '''Head Guard:''' He can ''talk!'' |
20 | * Fiona’s “transformation” copies the Beast’s transformation from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast''. |
21 | |
22 | !! ''WesternAnimation/ShrekTheThird'' |
23 | * In the opening scene, the foley man [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail claps two coconuts for Prince Charming riding his horse]] for dinner theater. |
24 | * While rehearsing for Charming's play, a group of trees dressed like characters from ''Theatre/AChorusLine'' dance to the instrumentals of the song "One." |
25 | |
26 | !! ''WesternAnimation/ShrekForeverAfter'' |
27 | * The witches are a cross between [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Margaret Hamilton as the Wicked Witch of the West]] visually and the [[ComicBook/NormanOsborn Green Goblin]] in terms of fighting techniques. |
28 | * And Fiona for ''Comicbook/RedSonja'' and ''Series/XenaWarriorPrincess''. |
29 | * Rumpelstiltskin's meeting with the witches references the table scene from ''Film/TheUntouchables''. |
30 | * ''Dueling Banjos'' (also known as "that one song from ''Film/{{Deliverance}}''") is heard while in the trailer-- er, carriage park. |
31 | * A giant ball of shields from which all the warriors jump out and attack? Ending of ''Film/ThreeHundred'', anyone? |
32 | * A list of the books seen on the bookshelf where Shrek replaces the book ''Shrek'' at the end of the film: |
33 | --->''[[Theatre/TheTamingOfTheShrew The Taming of the Shrek]]''\ |
34 | ''[[Literature/MobyDick Moby Shrek]]''\ |
35 | ''[[Literature/LittleLordFauntleroy Little Lord Donkleroy]]''\ |
36 | ''[[Literature/{{Cinderella}} Gingerella]]''\ |
37 | ''[[Literature/TheUglyDuckling The Ugly Shreklings]]''\ |
38 | ''[[Theatre/TheBarberOfSeville The Donkey of Seville]]''\ |
39 | ''Literature/PussInBoots''\ |
40 | ''[[Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream A Midsummer Night's Shrek]]''\ |
41 | ''[[Literature/JackAndTheBeanstalk Shrek and the Beanstalk]]''\ |
42 | ''[[Literature/TheIliad Fiona of Troy]]'' |
43 | * Rumpelstiltskin jumping off of the balcony, only for it to be revealed he intentionally landed on a flying goose echos ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartII''. |
44 | |
45 | !!''WesternAnimation/PussInBoots2011'' |
46 | * From [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NipMY6hUlSo this ad]]: "[[Advertising/TheMostInterestingManInTheWorld Stay Furry, my friends.]]" |
47 | * From [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JsbSolUF5c this one]]: "[[Advertising/TheManYourManCouldSmellLike Look at your cat. Now back to me.]]" |
48 | * Puss has mastered [[Film/{{Zoolander}} the Magnum...]] [[TrailersAlwaysLie But only in the trailer.]] |
49 | * "The first rule of Bean Club is [[Film/FightClub you do NOT talk about Bean Club.]]" |
50 | * Puss facing off with a highly competent imitator who turns out to be female, which happens with Jack Sparrow in ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides.'' This dips into ActorAllusion as both ladies are played by Creator/SalmaHayek and Creator/PenelopeCruz, known for being best friends in real life. For that matter, both scenes lead into a SorryILeftTheBGMOn moment. |
51 | * "There is only one word for you... [[WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens me-WOW."]] |
52 | * The garden in the giant's castle looks like [[WesternAnimation/IceAgeDawnOfTheDinosaurs the Jungle of Misery, and the Great Terror's roar in that scene even sounds like Rudy the Baryonyx.]] |
53 | * Obvious Jurassic Park allusions with the mother goose (scenes similar to having the T-Rex baby in the car to lead the mother out of town). |
54 | * Puss and Humpty's bully in the orphanage is a blue-skinned {{Jerkass}}. He's ''literally'' a [[Music/TheBeatles Blue]] [[WesternAnimation/YellowSubmarine Meanie.]] |
55 | * The split-screen shots are a reference to Creator/SergioLeone films. Much of the film's score is also inspired by Leone's films. |
56 | * Puss hitting Kitty with a guitar could be a shout-out to [[WesternAnimation/QuickDrawMcGraw El Kabong]]. |
57 | * The RunningGag cat who goes "Oooh!" thinks it's in a ''Film/CarryOn'' film. |
58 | * The Mother Goose's attack on San Ricardo is very similar to ''Film/Godzilla1998'', right down to the final assault on the bridge (and her attacking Humpty's plane from below, just how 'Zilla chomped a helicopter in the movie). |
59 | * "His boots are made of soft Corinthian Leather" is a reference to Creator/RicardoMontalban (one of the most prominent Hispanic actors in early Hollywood) and his famously suave endorsements for Chrysler. Montalban also co-starred with Banderas in ''Film/SpyKids3DGameOver'', and it's very likely "San Ricardo" is named in his honor. The use of the reference in relation to Puss' boots is also a CallForward to a similar reference in ''WesternAnimation/Shrek2'', where Donkey says to Puss "Hey man, you wanna get your fine Corinthian footwear and your cat cheeks out of my face?" |
60 | * Jack and Jill's little ones are ten little piggies. |
61 | * Humpty at one point tightens his golden suit so that only his eyes are showing, and starts mumbling in an incomprehensible way. [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark Kenny, anyone]]? |
62 | * "You made the cat angry. [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk You do]] ''[[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk not]]'' [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk want to make the cat angry!]]" |
