Long before audiences met the lovable green ogre in ‘Shrek’ (2001), an early 1995 test animation revealed a version of the character that looked dramatically different, with a creepier design, rougher animation style, and a much stranger overall tone. Often referred to as the “I Feel Good” test, this footage was created during the movie’s very early development as a proof-of-concept for DreamWorks executives. The clip was produced by Pacific Data Images (PDI), the animation studio that would later co-produce the final film with DreamWorks, alongside an experimental creative team called The Propellerheads. Its purpose was to help visualize what an animated adaptation of William Steig’s 1990 picture book could potentially look and feel like on screen. As you can see, early Shrek looked nothing like the softer, more expressive character audiences would eventually fall in love with. This version leaned much more into a bizarre, almost unsettling fantasy style, making it feel worlds apart from the comedic family film that would later define the franchise. Comedian Chris Farley was originally cast as the voice of Shrek and recorded a significant portion of the movie’s dialogue. Farley’s take on the character was said to be more vulnerable and sweet-natured, very different from the sarcastic and confident ogre that ultimately made it to theaters. Following Farley’s tragic death in 1997, DreamWorks reworked much of the film, bringing in Mike Myers, who famously reshaped the character and introduced the now-iconic Scottish accent. The gamble paid off. ‘Shrek’ (2001) became one of DreamWorks’ biggest success stories, grossing over $492 million worldwide, launching a billion-dollar franchise, and winning the very first Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. 🎥 Footage from early development test footage for ‘Shrek’ (2001) | DreamWorks / Pacific Data Images (PDI) Follow ‪Box Office HQ‬ for daily movie & TV throwbacks, fun facts, and box office recaps! 🎟️ BOX OFFICE HQ #boxofficehq #boxoffice #shrek #movies

Before they became the voices of Mr. Incredible and Patrick Star, Craig T. Nelson and Bill Fagerbakke spent nearly a decade starring together on the ABC sitcom Coach! 📺😂 The series aired from 1989 to 1997, running for nine seasons and nearly 200 episodes. Nelson starred as Hayden Fox, the head coach of a college football team, while Fagerbakke played Michael “Dauber” Dybinski, his lovable, dim-witted assistant coach. In this hilarious blooper, Nelson accidentally uses some unexpected language, then doubles down with increasingly outrageous lines in the following takes. Fagerbakke eventually joins in, leaving the studio audience roaring with laughter (get ready to hear Patrick Star drop an F-bomb 😂)! Nelson would go on to voice Bob Parr, better known as Mr. Incredible, in Pixar’s ‘The Incredibles’ (2004), while Fagerbakke became the unmistakable voice of Patrick Star when ‘SpongeBob SquarePants’ premiered in 1999. 🎥 Footage from: Coach (1989–1997) | ABC | Blooper / Outtake Follow Box Office HQ for daily movie & TV throwbacks, fun facts and box office recaps. 🎟️ BOX OFFICE HQ #boxofficehq #boxoffice #theincredibles #spongebob #patrickstar

The best scene from Shrek 2 is when the gang stormed the castle. All accompanied by an amazing rendition of “Holding Out for a Hero” by Jennifer Saunders. It is not only the best scene in a Shrek movie, but the best scene in DreamWorks Animation history.

Remember when Donkey drank some of the “Happily Ever After Potion” and turned into a stallion? According to the DVD Commentary for Shrek 2: Dragon was transformed into a pegasus, even though we didn’t see her in that form onscreen.

Eddie Murphy’s Donkey in Shrek (25 today!) is one of the greatest voice performances of all time. DreamWorks basically let him go wild; riffing, improvising, and bulldozing the script in the best way. Still the ONLY actor ever award-nominated for voice work in a mainstream film.

#Michael was an undeniable box office success, raking in over $1 billion at the global box office & turning into one of the most profitable biopics in the history of film. But whether this movie has legs to become an awards contender remains to be seen. I don’t have a dog in this fight - I liked Michael & thought the musical sequences were exceptional. But 2026 is also a truly loaded year for film, and I could see this movie getting boxed out.

Tron turns 44 today — released on July 9, 1982. The craziest part? This groundbreaking “computer movie” was snubbed by the Academy for Best Visual Effects. Why? They ruled that using CGI was basically cheating and gave filmmakers an unfair advantage over traditional practical effects and hand animation. That “cheating” technique is now the foundation of every major blockbuster for the past 20+ years. Well done, Tron. The future you predicted won. ⚡ Bonus wild fact: The official Tron arcade game (released by Bally Midway right after the film) actually out-grossed the movie. While the film made about $33–50 million worldwide at the box office, the arcade cabinets sold around 10,000 units and raked in an estimated $100–200 million in quarters during its peak years. It even won Coin-Operated Game of the Year. What amazes me most is that there was never a proper Commodore 64 adaptation. Almost every other big 80s sci-fi movie got turned into a C64 game… but the one literally set inside a computer world with light cycle races? Nope. (There was a late, unrelated Tron-like game in 1989, but nothing official at the time.) Mind-blowing.

"Who Framed Roger Rabbit" (1988) wasn’t just a movie… it was movie magic. Mixing live action with animation on this level had never been done before — and somehow it still looks incredible today. A groundbreaking cinematic achievement that became a massive box office success, won 4 Academy Awards, and forever changed the way animation and live-action were brought together on screen.

The Housemaid, which features Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, turned into a massive box office success, earning over $390 million worldwide against a $35 million production budget. I personally thought Seyfried is great here & carries the day. The movie overall is worth it.

This was the very first shot that was animated by Léo Silly Pélissier, the director of animation of Flow during pre-production. The character rigs and models were later remade from scrach. There're still a few shots left in the film which feature the older rigs.
