The cult cartoon turned out to be “for adults”

This will be a revelation for every viewer.

Sometimes in the world of cinema it happens that cartoons for adults become popular among children. This fate befell the legendary “Shrek”, on which more than one generation grew up. If you look closely, this cartoon is teeming with content for adults, and it is better to keep children away from the screens.

So, in one of the scenes, Fiona wants to cook breakfast and blows up a bird with her own singing. This is typical animal cruelty on screen, and this would not be allowed on screen today. But that is not all. The heroes also inflated frogs to turn them into balloons.

Shrek has a lot of 18+ content.

In the episode where Shrek approaches the kiosk, the dolls greet him and then turn their backs towards him.

It is worth noting separately that the cartoon contains many references to world film hits that are unlikely to be familiar to children. Fiona’s fight, where she jumps up into the air and then the camera pans over, is a fiery nod to The Matrix. And the episode where the princess puts the ring on her finger refers to The Lord of the Rings. Also in “Shrek” there is a portrait of Justin Timberlake and the painting “The Birth of Venus.”

So it turns out that “Shrek” is a cartoon made specifically for adults.
