ventaHaving promised my housemate that I'd take him to the pictures if he was good, I went to see Shrek 2 again last night.
And between us, we started a list of references to other films contained therein. Anyone else want to join in ?
Specific films referenced (rather than use of generic movie clichés):
Arriving in Far, Far Away - Beverley Hills Cop
Fairy Godmother singing - The Fabulous Baker Boys
A giant, stupid thing called Mungo - Blazing Saddles
Three friends (including a fencing Spaniard) planning to storm the castle to prevent the Princess ending up with the wrong bloke - The Princess Bride
Puss carving 'P' on a tree - The Mask Of Zorro
The final scene of people dancing on the stage - The Fifth Element
Some of these I only have Andy's word for, as I haven't seen the films in question.
