Trivia
  • At the time of its release, the movie had the third highest opening gross of all time with an estimated $121 million.
  • From a list of stats reported in Famous magazine: - It took 1,000,000 man-hours to complete the film with a crew size of 150 - Of the 4,500 costumes that were designed for the film only 2,500 actually made it into the final cut. - 1,373 characters are present in the theatre scene with Prince Charming performing. This is recorded as the largest crowd scene of all three Shrek movies. - There are 23 key fairy tale characters that appear through out the film and a total of 4,378 generic characters that were available for the animators to pull from library when making crowd scenes. - 62,173 branches per tree with 191,545 leaves per tree. - As for bricks there are 1,602 bricks making up the docks and 3,196 bricks making up the sewer walls the Princesses use as escape. - A total of 60 new "environments" were created for the movie
  • # # After the queen smashes her head through the second wall she begins to hum "Just a Spoonfull of Sugar" from Mary Poppins and then "These Are a Few of My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music (1965). The voice of the queen is Julie Andrews who sings the songs in Mary Poppins and The Sound Of Music.
  • Release prints were delivered to theaters with the fake title `Stone`.
  • The first in the series to not have a "storybook" opening.
  • Donkey and Dragon have five children -- Coco, Debbie, Peanut, Parfait and Bananas.
  • In the final dress rehearsal before the show, there are trees warming up and holding on to poles connected to mirrors. This is a direct reference to A Chorus Line (1985), and you can hear "One" playing in the background.
  • In one scene, the Gingerbread Man`s life essentially passes before his eyes. Not only does this scene make reference to "The Six Million Dollar Man" (1974), but according to the sequence, the Gingerbread Man is or was married.
  • The music used when the Princesses attack the castle is Led Zeppelin`s "The Immigrant Song" and "Barracuda" by Heart. `Led Zeppelin` are very hesitant in use their songs for commercial purposes. The other film where this song appears is The School of Rock (2003). The soundtrack album, however, features a remake of "Barracuda" by Fergie.
  • Antonio Banderas voices Puss in Boots in Italian and Spanish too.
  • Had the biggest box-office opening of an animated movie ever.
  • In the scene in Charming`s dressing room, there is a ‘Phantom of the Opera’ costume in the back, mostly visible through the mirrors (another allusion to Phantom).
  • # # As Artie is giving his speech when leaving his school, he says he`s "building his city on rock and roll". This is a modified line in reference to and taken from rock band Starship`s hit "We Built This City". The actual line in the song goes "We built this city on rock and roll"
  • Before the princesses break into the castle, Fiona makes a bird noise to signal Snow White. She uses the same hand movements to make it as Natalie does to make a bird noise in Charlie`s Angels (2000). Natalie and Fiona are both played by Cameron Diaz.
  • WILHELM SCREAM: Heard during the commotion in the tavern.
  • When the (Frog) King dies a frog chorus sings "Live and Let Die". This is the second time animated frogs have sung a Paul McCartney song, the first being "We all Stand Together".
  • Eric Idle, upon seeing the "coconuts as horse hoof sound effects" segment in the stage show scene, admonished the makers of the film publicly. He claimed they were ripping off Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) and "stealing" their joke. He perhaps failed to realize that coconuts have been used as horse hoof beats since the days of radio - from whence Monty Python were no doubt inspired.
