Shrek in the Swamp Karaoke Dance Party

Apparently the guys who made "Shrek" didn't think their movie was funny enough on its own (which it was) so they had to throw in some extra bonus junk. Unlike the outtakes shown over the end credits of the Pixar films "A Bug's Life," "Toy Story 2," and "Monsters, Inc.," this didn't seem half as inspired.

The sing-along was cute... the first time through. Fortunately it's a bonus feature on the DVD; the VHS copies stuck it in right before the end credits. I guess that's why they made the fast forward button on the remote.

Stick around after the end of the movie; don't just stop it after you see the ending scene. I know, I know, hard to believe that still has to be said, but it does. Some friends of mine never knew that existed because they are the type to stop the movie right after the final scene, since they don't care about the credits. A good way to miss out on things. Things like this cute little extra. :) The way the songs blended into each other was great, and I loved the song choices - a little bit of modern, a little bit of old, so that it's likely to satisfy everyone.

Nice little addition here to the Shrek DVD, a sing-a-long with all the major (and minor) characters. Hits like YMCA (the 'gay' Robin Hood gang), Like a Virgin (princess Fiona) and staying alive (Lord Farquaad) come along, and it's all wonderfully animated and fun to watch. I love it when everybody bursts out in 'Dance to the Music'. It's hard not to...

Not quite sure if all the youngsters (the more apparent segment this extra is aiming at) will understand all the little jokes made (for instance in the YMCA bit), but I'm sure they'll love it as well. As will most parents, as did I!

7/10.

I was watching it at my friends house and I'd already seen it so I wasn't extremely excited. The movie ended and we were just sitting there there talking when it came on. When donkey started singing "I like big butts and i cannot lie" I fell off my chair laughing. (and it was one of those humongous chairs- i slept on it once and it was better than my bed- so it was almost impossible to fall off of) As soon as my friend and i returned it I rented it again to watch with my sister- and i almost died waiting for that part to come on

The 'Shrek in the Swamp Karaoke Dance Party' is a great extra to a great film. I loved 'Shrek' and to see all those funny characters again to do a little singing and dancing is fantastic. I laughed a lot during this little extra, especially with the first phrase of the donkey (I will not reveal what song he does). If you loved the film you will definitely love this as well.
