Shrek When a green ogre called Shrek discovers his swamp has been 'swamped' with all sorts of fairytale creatures by the scheming Lord Farquaad, Shrek sets out, with a very loud donkey by his side, to 'persuade' Farquaad to give his swamp back. Instead, a deal is made. Farquaad, who wants to become the King, sends Shrek to rescue Princess Fiona, who is waiting for her one true love. But once they head back with Fiona, it starts to become apparent that not only does Shrek like Fiona, but Fiona is keeping something secret.
Shrek is a big ogre who lives alone in the woods, feared by all the people in the land of Duloc. When Lord Farquaad, the ruler of Duloc, exiles all the fairy-tale beings to the woods, Shrek loses his peaceful life and his home becomes a refugee camp. So he sets out to find Lord Farquaad and convince him to take the fairy-tale beings back where they belong, and leave him alone. Lord Farquaad accepts, under one condition. Shrek must first go and find the beautiful young princess Fiona, who will become Farquaad's bride. So the big Ogre begins his quest, along with his newfound donkey friend.
In a faraway land called Duloc, a heartless ruler, the diminutive Lord Farquaad, has banished all the fairy tale beings from the land so it can be as boring as he is. But there are three characters who will stand in his way. The first is a green, smelly ogre with a heart of gold named Shrek, his faithful steed, Donkey, who will do anything but shut up, and the beautiful but tough Princess Fiona whom Lord Farquaad wishes to make his wife so he can become king of Duloc.

Shrek 2 The movie starts out with a "perfect" man named Prince Charming finding out that Fiona was already saved from her tower, and is upset. The story then shifts to Shrek and Fiona, who are now married! They are on their honeymoon, enjoying themselves. They come back home to find Donkey anxiously awaiting their arrival, and we find that the relationship between Donkey and the Dragon didn't roll over too well. Shrek kicks Donkey out, but suddenly they get a letter from Fiona's parents... the King and Queen of Far Far Away! Shrek, knowing that when Fiona's parents see him and her as ogres they will be flabberghasted, decides he does not want to go. But then with some nagging, Shrek finally succumbs to Fiona's wanting to see her parents. Donkey comes along too! They spend days traveling to Far Far Away, because well, it is far, far away. You find that Far Far Away is like a medieval Hollywood, with a Hollywood Sign parody too, of Far Far Away. As suspected, no one takes to Shrek and Fiona's entrance, and King Harold and Shrek end up in a big fight during dinner. Queen Lilian is a bit more forgiving. King Harold decides to get rid of Shrek and hired Puss in Boots, a cat with an attitude, and boots! After a "catfight" with Shrek in the woods, Puss in Boots joins their side. Meanwhile Fiona's Fairy Godmother wants her son, revealed to be Prince Charming, to marry Fiona, not Shrek! The story back to Shrek... he finds an old diary of Fiona's and decides that he wants to be in human form. He, Donkey and Puss in Boots break into Fairy Godmother's Factory and steal a potion called "Happily Ever After", which turns Shrek into a handsome man, Fiona back into a human princess, and Donkey into a stallion! Fairy Godmother, revealed as the villain of the story, makes her son, Charming, to switch places with Shrek and make Fiona think that he is Shrek in human form. She gives the king a potion to give to Fiona which will make her love the first man she kisses, which Fairy Godmother wants to be Charming. Shrek, Donkey, and Puss in Boots are arrested, but are broken out by the Gingerbread Man, Pinnochio and company. They finally decide to crash the ball held by Fairy Godmother, where Fiona will kiss Charming. Shrek and company go to the Muffin Man who cooks them up a Gingerbread Man the size of Godzilla which helps them infiltrate the castle walls. Will Shrek make it in time before Fiona falls in love with the wrong man?
Shrek 3 Shrek and Fiona's (Mike_Myers and Cameron_Diaz, respectively) fairy-tale wedding has gone off without a hitch, yet just as the beaming newlyweds prepare to enjoy their blissful "happily ever after," the sudden death of King Harold (John_Cleese) finds everyone's favorite ornery ogre being reluctantly fitted for the royal crown. Troubled to learn that not only will he be compelled to rule Far Far Away, but that he and Fiona are also expecting a little ogre, Shrek determines to track down his new bride's rebellious cousin, Artie (Justin_Timberlake) -- the one true heir to the throne -- in order to focus on fatherhood without the added distraction of having to preside over the kingdom. As Shrek sets out with faithful companions Donkey (Eddie_Murphy) and Puss in Boots (Antonio_Banderas) to locate the medieval high-school slacker and bring him back to become the reigning sovereign of Far Far Away, handsome snake Prince Charming (Rupert_Everett) slithers back to the castle in the company of the dreaded Captain Hook (Ian McShane) to stage a diabolically timed coup and assume control of the throne. Now, as Shrek, Donkey, and Puss in Boots do their best to wrangle up the feisty Artie, Fiona must enlist the aid of fighting princesses Snow White (Amy_Poehler), Sleeping Beauty (Cheri_Oteri), Rapunzel (Maya_Rudolph), and Cinderella (Amy_Sedaris) to barricade the castle and fend off Prince Charming's invading army of fairy-tale villains until her beloved husband can return with the cavalry to save the day.
