Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is Princess Fiona being guarded by?

Answer: A fire-breathing dragon

Later in the film, when Shrek, Dragon and Donkey set off to stop the wedding, Shrek uses the chain on the dragon's collar to climb onto her back. In the next scene, when the dragon lands at Farquaad's castle, the chain has disappeared!
2. During the introduction to the film, a man says to Shrek, "Back, beast, back!" and he waves a lighted torch at Shrek. What does Shrek do to that lighted torch?

Answer: Pinch it out with his fingers

Mike Myers decided to change Shrek's accent after viewing a rough cut of the movie. This meant that $4 million worth of animation had to be taken out and redone.
3. Donkey has brown eyes. True or False?

Answer: True

Donkey was modelled after a real miniature donkey called Pericles.
4. Who says this: "You may have seen a house fly, maybe even a super fly, but I bet you ain't never seen a donkey fly!"?

Answer: Donkey

House fly facts: Flies are the only insects that have only two wings (other insects have four). The average house fly lives for about 21 days and when they are born they are already full size.
5. What causes Donkey to fly the first time we see it happen?

Answer: The fairy dust from the fairy cage gives him magic flying powers

According to IMDb, a fairy godmother named Dama Fortuna was originally included in the movie but was cut out. We will have to see if a Dama Fortuna makes an appearance in 'Shrek 2'!
6. When Donkey runs away from the soldiers, what does he run into?

Answer: Shrek's bottom

There are apparently 36 unique locations in 'Shrek' - more than any other computer-animated film (at the time).
7. Who is (according to Donkey) a "mean, green fighting machine"?

Answer: Shrek

The Green Goblin was the villain in 'Spider-Man', brilliantly played by Willem Dafoe. 'The Incredible Hulk' is another comic book hero (a film of which, directed by Ang Lee is due out with Eric Bana in the title role). 'The Happy Prince' is a short story by Oscar Wilde.
8. Who says: "I like that boulder, that is a nice boulder!"?

Answer: Donkey

It was when he was trying to be nice about Shrek's home after having just been rude about it (he hadn't realised that Shrek lived there!)
9. What type of animal is in Shrek's bed when the fairytale creatures invade his swamp?

Answer: A Wolf

The wolf was dressed in a pink nightie and frilly cap. Now my understanding of little red riding hood is that the wolf ate the grandmother and then put on her nightclothes... so if the wolf gets his nightclothes from the house he invades, are we to understand Shrek wears pink frilly stuff in bed? Excellent!
10. What was the response of the fairytale creatures to Shrek telling them they were not welcome in his swamp and that he was off to tell Lord Farquaad that he wanted them evicted?

Answer: Cheers and flower garlands

The computer animation production took more than four and a half years to complete.
11. What colour is Lord Farquaad's outfit?

Answer: Red

Throughout history, wearing red was supposed to give the wearer protection against evil influences. Wearing a red ruby was supposed to bring about invincibility and red bedclothes were customary in Germany up to the Middle Ages as protection against illness.
12. What liquid beverage was being used to 'dunk' the gingerbread man?

Answer: Milk

Apparently, camel's milk does not curdle. So there you go...
13. Which "bachelorette" is the odd one out and was NOT offered to Lord Farquaad by the magic mirror?

Answer: Sleeping Beauty

The production team did consider using Sleeping Beauty, but apparently Snow White got chosen instead as there was more scope for jokes with the dwarves and she more more easily recognised.
14. How long was the wait at the turnstile to get into Duloc?

Answer: 45 minutes

There was apparently a 45 minute wait, but there was no one in the queue!
15. There is music being piped into the streets when Donkey and Shrek enter Duloc. True or False?

Answer: True

In the late 19th century, Thaddeus Cahill invented the Telharmonium. This large instrument was kept in the basement of buildings and the music piped to listeners elsewhere. The first subscriber to this new phenomenon was the Café Martin, a large restaurant on 26th Street between Fifth Avenue and Broadway in New York.
16. When Shrek and Donkey are in the arena at Duloc, what is the letter on the blue banners hanging down from the sides of the arena?

Answer: 'F' for Farquaad

Shrek and Donkey only see Lord Farquaad on a balcony in the arena. So how did they know to laugh about his height when they were with Fiona later in the film? Also, at the beginning of the film when the fairytale creatures invaded the swamp, Shrek has never heard of Farquaad.
17. Which yellow flowers are in the field which Shrek and Donkey walk through?

Answer: Sunflowers

The sunflower symbolises many things including deep loyalty, power, warmth, nourishment, haughtiness, false appearances and unhappy love. It is said in some cultures that if a girl puts three sunflower seeds down her back, she will marry the first boy she meets.
18. When Donkey and Shrek are in the dragon's castle, what does Donkey have to go in search of?

Answer: The Stairs

"You handle the dragon, I'll handle the stairs. Oh I'll find those stairs, I'll whip their butt too, that's right! Those stairs won't know which way they're going. I'm going to take drastic steps, kick them to the kerb, don't mess with me, I'm the stairmaster! I've mastered the stairs! I wish I had a step right here, right now, I'll step all over it!"
19. What colour is Fiona's hair?

Answer: Red

About 13 percent of Scotland's citizens are redheaded, the highest percentage in the world.
20. What makes Princess Fiona so worried about the prospect of sunset that she says: "Tomorrow? It'll take that long?!"?

Answer: The princess will turn into an ogre at sunset

I thought she was rather pretty when she changed... couldn't understand why everyone kept saying she was ugly...
21. What was the colour of the bird involved in the unfortunate singing incident with the princess?

Answer: Bluebird

The poor old bluebird is a victim of the artificial introduction of more aggressive non-native birds into the US. Happily though, there are a number of bluebird interest groups who are helping to re-establish the populations.
22. When Shrek and Princess Fiona got back to Duloc (or near it anyway), did Lord Farquaad give Shrek the deeds to the swamp? Yes or No?

Answer: Yes

Apparently, in Yiddish, "Shrek" means monster (from the German for "terror" or "fright").
23. Why did Donkey go back to the swamp after he and Shrek had argued?

Answer: Because friends forgive one another and make up

Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz and John Lithgow have all been signed up for 'Shrek 2', as has John Cleese who will play Princess Fiona's father.
24. Did Shrek run in on Fiona and Farquaad's wedding?

Answer: Yes

According to IMDb, when Princess Fiona is transforming near the end of the movie, she floats and shoots bolts of light out of her fingers and heels and this bears a striking resemblance to the Beast's transformation in 'Beauty and the Beast'.
25. Which of these characters DID NOT appear in the movie?

Answer: Goldilocks

Goldilocks wasn't in the movie but the three bears were, although Mama Bear became a rug on Lord Farquaad's floor (you can see her in the scene where he is watching Fiona in the mirror).
