      What a travesty. What silliness. What absurdity. Shrek The Musical. What's next, Perezhilton.com The Musical.

      I have never understood why people think Shrek is so great. The movies were okay but I don't understand the fascination.

      I'm tired of all this recycled bull shit. The movie was decent, but why do we need a musical? Let's go back to trying to be original, please Broadway?
