Fanbashing!

SHREK
The Jolly Green Giant
--
1. First Shrek movie, think back to the quote, "Take a look at me, what am I?"- Donkey looks him up and down - or in this case, down and up. Well, keeping in mind that donkeys are color blind; why is that part not in black and white?
2. Queen Lillian and King Harold deal with the Fairy Godmother and her bratty son. Why? Why not just banish them to another location? If you're thinking that they put up with them because Charming's a prince; well, clearly, you forget that he is fatherless; and the Fairy Godmother is not a Queen. She shouldn't be listed as Charming's mother; he should've been born in another kingdom. Even Artie, the teenager who was disposed of at a school by his very own old man, is able to confront his royal background with some masculine dignity. All Charming carries with him - I mean, aside from his tights and hairspray - is a sword; which, let's face it, just makes him look like a bratty commoner. With tights. And hairspray. If you're thinking it's because the Fairy Godmother deserves respect, uh, no, she doesn't. First off, her hair is gray and King Harold's is white, which means she isn't his elder. Earn your respect, lady; no one with any sense will just give it to you because you're old.
3. Where is Cinderella's stepmother, and for that matter, her "evil stepsisters"? Did her special secretive GOOD Fairy Godmother erase them from existence after her secretive ball in the kingdom - or did the evil, winged bitch Fairy Godmother "owe her one"? Where are her glass slippers? And hey, what's the deal with Rumpelstiltskin? An adult in the third film, a conniving little brat in the fourth - can I assume he traveled back to the past? No, because everything else would've changed, too. Let's face it; despite how much we love Shrek, it's full of mistakes.
4. Why quit making Shrek? There are so many open roads for more! For one, Fiona could find out that her father hired a certain friend of hers to kill her husband. For another, Kitty Softpaws could meet Rumpelstiltskin and make a request to meet Puss In Boots again. Oh, and in the third Shrek movie, Artie becomes KING. So, where's his Queen? Is it...perhaps...Rapunzel? I mean, come on - she WAS going out with "King Charming", yes? Maybe she is attracted to men for their wealth or status. Despite all its faults, the Shrek series is so much better than that Panda crap DreamWorks is doing now!
5. Topic change! Take a close look at your Sims Life Stories game (or Google Images search it if you don't have one). What is Riley wearing? I believe it is a formal white dress. But is that dress even IN the Sims Life Stories? Nope. And if you play through the introduction with the music and the mini-videos, WITH your volume up; you will also notice that Riley does NOT have the voice of an adult Sim. Speaking of Sims, here is another glitch - whether you swap neighborhoods in the Sims 2 or make your own; La Shawn Cameron will freaking follow your Sims. She's in every neighborhood and she goes past - or visits - every lot. And in any Sims game; it says your Sim will have a Platinum aspiration for the rest of his/her lifetime if you fulfill their Lifetime Wish. But that only works if you use the 'lockaspiration on' cheat. If you don't do that, they will NOT have it for the rest of their lifetime! That's getting our hopes up, not theirs.
Okay. I think that does it...for now. I'll keep editing this post until I honestly, truly cannot think of any other mistakes...with anything. So make yourself comfy and keep checking back. And if you find any glitches with any of the following, you just leave me a comment:
Animorphs (that undervalued movie series based on the books by K.A. Applegate)
City Of Heroes (a downloadable computer game)
Finding Nemo (that funny animated movie about a lost clownfish looking for his father)
Ice Age (an animated series about prehistoric mammals and animals)
Need For Speed World (my favorite game of all time!)
Shrek (aforementioned)
X-Men (the awesome movies, not the -yawn- comic books)
Sims Life Stories
Sims Pet Stories
Sims 2 (and its expansions)
Sims 3 (and its expansions)
I apologize for my unexpanded horizons! Please contribute to this post if you can.
