As I work today, I was thinking about the Shrek Halloween special where the deceased characters of the Shrek cinematic universe have been reanimated and I realized that every antagonist that has ever wronged Shrek have been killed for doing so. If you mess with Shrek and his group chances are you will be murdered and your demise will be celebrated him and his fairytale friends. No redemption, no imprisonment, you inconvenience the Scottish ogre, you are over. There’s no going back. The Shrek universe is unforgiving and cold. I fear it so.
