Well the short guy was also a total fuckwad
The reality of the situation for most short men who complain about women not liking them because of their height.
Short man syndrome is very real unfortunately
The "message" of Shrek is pretty iffy.
- Looks really are important
- Ugly green people should only be with other ugly green people.
- Not all ugly people are bad, but bad people are definitely ugly (short being ugly, of course).
Mmm that feels like a pretty big stretch. The whole point is that Fiona loves Shrek for who he is, not what he looks like. She didn't become an "ugly green person", because she was beautiful to Shrek and Shrek was beautiful to her.
Also, even if the idea was short=ugly (which I don't think it was, more just a king with a big ego and small stature), Shrek 2 is completely centered around Shrek feeling insecure next to what turns out to be a conventionally attractive bad guy.
Not all ugly people are bad, but bad people are definitely ugly (short being ugly, of course).
Well there’s only one bad person in Shrek 1, so that’s not really a good sample. If we move to the sequels there’s Charming who’s good looking but also an ass.
Yes but have you seen ogre dong?
Yes yes we’ve all seen “the gif”
Shrek may have the personality of an ogre, but it seemed much preferable over that of Farquad's!
If you make fun of someone's physical trait that they have no control over, are you being a good person?
Not at that particular moment at least. I don't think that rises to the level of you are a bad person as a whole.
Yeah, and so was Fiona
Neither you chose to be, so who cares ?
True. I chose to be a huge, handsome guy so I chose neither and don't care about these losers
