Do you overheat? I’ve recently realised that I overheat very easily but also somehow don’t notice when it happens..? Well, more accurately I start feeling very uncomfortable and upset but can’t pinpoint the reason why. This past year we started using a fan when it’s hot and I figured out that when I stand directly in front of it during those moments of unexplained frustration I suddenly feel better. This is after YEARS of struggling with this!! Now both me and Mike know a possible way of helping me when something’s feels wrong which is great.
The trope where a character overhears something out of context and assumes the worst is usually annoying and bad but I really think it works well in Shrek
We, the audience, know that Fiona is talking about herself but, regardless, she’s calling herself these terrible things because she is an ogre. If Fiona is these things because she is is an ogre what does that make Shrek?
If Fiona says no one could love her because she is an ogre, she is saying that Shrek is also unloveable whether she wants to or not.
Imo the scene is a really good portrayal of how when you talk poorly of yourself or others for having a trait, you’re also talking about every other person who shares that trait; even if you love them or think what you’re saying doesn’t apply to them.
Not going to lie, I saw the word “Shrek” and never expected this to be a deep post.
