It's official: yet another date ruined because I said I wanted to watch the Shrek trilogy but then insisted on watching Shrek 2 three times in a row because it's the only Prestige Shrek. (hexbear.net)

That's clearly what I mean unless you want to waste four hours on sub-par Shrek. You know the main canon and there's no reason to revisit it for fucking exposition.

That's a very postmodern viewing of Shrek. I prefer to watch Shrek 2 and imagine where the characters came from and where they're going. There is a direct, lived connection to history. Fiona doesn't just fall out of a coconut tree and reveal she's pregnant.
