Trivia / Shrek 4D

Go To


  • Blooper: When Shrek and Donkey spot Fiona while riding on Dragon, Shrek points towards her and shouts, "Princess at three o'clock!", even though Fiona actually appears at eleven o'clock.
  • Bonus Episode: The short is generally treated as such for the Shrek series.
  • Contractual Obligation Project: The contracts for the stars of the first film stipulated they had to reprise their roles for a theme park attraction if one were ever made.
  • Demand Overload: When it first opened at Universal Studios Florida, the attraction only used one of the two theaters that the original Alfred Hitchcock: The Art of Making Movies show had. Due to the attraction receiving overwhelmingly long lines upon opening, the second theater was eventually converted into another 3-D theater, therefore doubling capacity.
  • Direct to Video: A year after the attraction opened, it was released as Shrek 3-D on DVD around the same time the second film came out.
  • Edited for Syndication: For obvious reasons, the 2-D version of the film (titled The Ghost of Lord Farquaad) completely cuts out the scene where Donkey is flung towards the viewers and remarks, "Wow, this 3-D is pretty cool!"
  • Flip-Flop of God: The canonicity of the attraction has always been put into question. The official statement by DreamWorks Animation is that it is canon, however, there are numerous aspects of the films it contradicts. The attraction opens with Shrek and Fiona about to embark on their honeymoon, despite the fact that the first film already showed them riding off onto their honeymoon. Along with that, the attraction ends with Shrek and Fiona spending their honeymoon at the "Hotel Honeymoon", while the second film shows them spending their honeymoon inside a gingerbread cottage. Finally, the television special Scared Shrekless appears to retcon this attraction entirely, as Farquaad being a ghost is said to be an urban legend, with Shrek and Donkey making no mention over ever having encountered him again as such.
  • Market-Based Title: At Universal Studios Japan, the attraction is called Shrek's 4-D Adventure. Universal Studios Singapore drops the plural possessive and has it as just Shrek 4-D Adventure.
