5* ActingForTwo: Artie and Prince Charming are both voiced by Creator/JamesArnoldTaylor in the tie-in game, and end up talking to each other during the final battle.
6* BTeamSequel: The first two films had a few different co-directors, but had Andrew Adamson among them for both films. Here, Chris Miller directs the film, while Adamson was busy making ''Film/TheLionTheWitchAndTheWardrobe'' at the time of this film's production, though Adamson is still credited for its story.
7* CelebrityVoiceActor: Music/JustinTimberlake provides the voicework for Artie. Aside from Timberlake, the new characters are voiced by Creator/EricIdle, Creator/MayaRudolph, Creator/AmyPoehler, Creator/AmySedaris, Creator/CheriOteri, Creator/SusanneBlakeslee, and Creator/JohnKrasinski.
8* EarlyDraftTieIn: The [[VideoGame/ShrekTheThird tie-in game]] features a section focusing on Artie, Shrek and Donkey going on a quest to find the Holy Grail. This is based off a deleted subplot that didn't make it into the finished movie, explaining why nothing of the sort actually happened there.
9* KidsMealToy: UsefulNotes/McDonalds had two Happy Meal promotions. The first was a set of ten talking figures released during the film's theatrical run; Shrek, Fiona, Donkey, Puss in Boots, Gingy, Arthur, a Dronkey, Fergus, Farkle, and Felicia. The second was a set of eight super deformed figures released during the 2007 holiday season; Shrek, Donkey, Fiona, Puss in Boots, Dragon, Gingy, Pinocchio, and Fergus.

13* TheOtherDarrin:
14** In addition to Shrek, Donkey, Puss, Fiona and Prince Charming being voiced by their actors from the ''VideoGame/Shrek2'' game, Artie is voiced by Creator/JamesArnoldTaylor (replacing Music/JustinTimberlake), Merlin by Creator/JonCurry (replacing Creator/EricIdle) and Sleeping Beauty by Creator/ErinMatthews (replacing Creator/CheriOteri).
15** The Brazilian Portuguese dub has Creator/MauroRamos as Donkey due to Bussunda's sudden passing in 2006.
16** In the German dub, Dennis Schmidt-Foß voices Donkey due to Randolf Kronberg's 2007 death.
17** In the Italian dub, Puss in Boots changed voice actors from Creator/MassimoRossi to Creator/AntonioBanderas.
18* RoleReprise: Creator/JohnCleese, Conrad Vernon, Cody Cameron, Creator/SusanneBlakeslee and Tom [=McGrath=] reprise their respective roles as King Harold, Gingy, Pinocchio, the Evil Queen and [[Franchise/{{Madagascar}} Skipper]] for the tie-in game.
19* SpoiledByTheMerchandise: Plush toys of Shrek and Fiona's triplets were in stores and on shelves at various different retailers long before the release of ''Shrek the Third'', in which Fiona breaks the news to Shrek that she's pregnant.
