Life is so beautiful idk why I’m on tumblr lol

I meant what I said

Not to be that person but I feel like sometimes Shrek being so memeable prevents people from seeing how truly revolutionary and radical the first two films really were. A children’s fairy tale that argues that no, ugliness does not mean bad and beautiful does not mean good. A fairy tale that argues that everyone deserves love, even those cast out of the margins of society. A fairy tale that dares to have a female protagonist not be conventionally attractive or helpless. A fairy tale that argues that love does not happen at first sight, but is grown through mutual respect and interest. That’s pretty fucking sick if you ask me

okay but real talk Princess Fiona being 'ugly' and burping and eating gross food and accidentally singing so hard she killed a bird and even as a human just looking like a normal ass person and not a stunning gorgeous perfect princess??

fucking radical to child me who was always called ugly and gross by other kids, she was actually a princess I could identify with and relate to, and she was never demonised for these things, they weren't flaws, that was just how she was and that was okay

I watched that movie on repeat and that part at the end where she's an ogre and says 'I don't understand, I'm supposed to be beautiful' and Shrek says 'but you ARE beautiful' it changed my fucking life

it changed my entire worldview it changed the entire definition of beauty to me

I love the memes but fuck yes we should acknowledge what this movie meant to some of us who had never seen a movie buck every Disney trope like that and change the standard

and also Shrek 2 was a cinematic masterpiece with one of the greatest movie scores of all time with the most LIT AS FUCK climax of any movie ever and I will die on this hill thank you

Maybe YOU can't. I, on the other hand, have critical thinking skills and a lot of spite
