I am not an Ogre, and yet I still look green

Why am I green... because I am getting sick of Shrek.

I think the best comparison the Shrek franchise has to a real world object is a train. I mean, when you doing most things, and something isn't going right, you generally stop while things aren't too bad, but it is hard to stop a train, and as a mode of transportation, well, they have been known to occasionally derail, especially when the earlier part of one's journey has been pleasant.

Why am I bringing this up now? There are going to be two more sequels. It doesn't matter that Shrek the Third is getting bad reviews, there are going to be two more films in the series, with the next installment being scheduled for 2010.

I don't know if that is a promise or a threat. And this is coming from someone who liked the first two movies. I just feel like they are slowly destroying something I really enjoyed by continuing with these sequels and all the frakkin' commercials with Shrek characters... GAH!

And somehow I have a feeling that Eric Idle isn't going to be involved either.
