Yesterday we were blessed with an unexpected teaser for the new Shrek 5 movie, but it seems things are looking a little different and fans (including myself) aren't happy. Since the original film's release in 2001, the franchises' character design has remained fairly unchanged – until now. Whichever ogre stars in the new trailer... that is not my Shrek.
I'm not alone in feeling a little hesitant about the new design – many of us who grew up with the Shrek films were shocked and downright confused by the drastic animation style change. Whatever the reason behind the character design revamp, the onslaught of fan backlash is certainly not the positive reception DreamWorks likely anticipated.
