"Shrek" Inspired Theme-Park Ride



Thousands of Universal Orlando guests, donning Shrek ears and green painted faces, were on hand to celebrate the ogre-sized grand opening of the new "Shrek 4-D" attraction at Universal Studios Florida. Guests toasted the new attraction and the newlyweds with green "champagne" while Shrek and Fiona cut into the World's Largest Wedding Cake.

An amazing, first-of-its-kind partnership between the creative powerhouses DreamWorks and Universal, "Shrek 4-D" is a multi-sensory, multi-media continuation of DreamWorks Pictures' Academy Award(R)-winning blockbuster "Shrek." Picking up where the movie left off, the attraction combines original 3-D animation, state-of-the-art digital cinema projection and audio systems, with unique in-theatre effects that audiences can see, hear and feel.

"Shrek 4-D" reunites the comic talents of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz and John Lithgow who return to give voice to the swamp-dwelling ogre, Shrek; his faithful chatterbox companion, Donkey; his bride, Princess Fiona; and the vengeful ghost of Lord Farquaad.

The tale begins as Shrek, Princess Fiona and Donkey, set off on their honeymoon. But the ghost of Lord Farquaad, intent on taking his fearsome revenge, interrupts the honeymooners' bliss. Soon, our fairy-tale heroes are face to face with ghostly foes, and the audience is transported into the center of a thrilling adventure packed with such fast-paced sequences as an aerial dogfight between fire-breathing dragons and a steep plunge down a 1,000-foot deadly waterfall.

With 12 minutes of all-new 3-D animation, "Shrek 4-D" bridges the narrative between "Shrek," "the greatest fairy-tale never told," and the upcoming sequel from DreamWorks Pictures. Guests use OgreVision glasses that make the screen and theater come alive. Surprising sensory elements and spectacular visuals yet to be seen, heard and felt in a "4-D" attraction complete the thrill.
