When DreamWorks released Shrek in 2001, it couldn't possibly have known that the face of cinema would be changed forever. A simple tale based on a children's book, Shrek takes the Disney fairytale and distorts it, injecting some adult humor and themes into an otherwise child-friendly movie about an ogre, donkey, princess, and class struggles.
In all seriousness, Shrek's satirical take on the fairytale genre was a breath of fresh air, and the voice acting, great animation, and stellar soundtrack has cemented it as a modern-day classic. Though its sequels and spin-offs haven't received the same critical reception, they've still got some avid fans, and thanks to some undying Shrek memes, the franchise lives on 20 years later. It's just a shame the ogre's video game offerings haven't attributed to his success.
