If Shrek is regarded as Serge, the time and space where Shrek was originally located can be regarded as the time and space Home World where Serge was originally located, and the time and space where Shrek originally "didn't exist" can be regarded as the time and space where Serge was "dead". Another World. Just as the game tells the story of Serge's journey to Another World, the film also tells the story of Shrek's journey to "Another World".
But to be honest, Chrono Cross's examples of this time-traveling method are no less, and I'm just taking the example I am most familiar with. Moreover, this film does not arbitrarily shuttle between two time and space like the game, and even these two time and space cannot coexist for a long time-according to Shrek's efforts, only one time and space can exist in the end.
The film reshapes Fiona's character image, this time she is no longer a princess who just waits for the hero to rescue her. This time she tried hard to change her destiny by her own strength. And if you look at the relationship between Fiona and Shrek, she is actually very similar to the girl in the game, Leena—in Home World, "she" is a friend (or lover, wife) of the "male protagonist", and because of this world in Another World The essential relationship "she" did not know the "male protagonist" at first, but later she was willing to help the "male protagonist". But unlike the game, the focus of the film is on Fiona, which also allows the film to fully explain Fiona's changes in mind, so as to understand how she went from getting to know Shrek to being truly moved by Shrek. It should be said that compared with the first part, the love between Fiona and Shrek is obviously more precious this time. Especially for Shrek, this memory only exists in his mind after the incident, and he should know what to do afterwards.
The allusions used in the film this time mainly include "gnomish monster" and "pied piper". Before revisiting these, I have done some understanding: the former is mainly contradictory, and the latter is mainly neutral characters. The use of the subject matter in the film does not break out of this frame. Compared with the design of the monster in the first to save the princess and the contradictory design in the second godmother, this film is really not new in this regard, but it is so for me. It can just bypass the minefield, so it is quite satisfactory. The film may not be as new as the previous works, but it is also enough to make people feel more deeply after watching it.
