    I've always wondered what would Puss look like if he drank Happily Ever After Potion instead of Donkey in Shrek 2.

    If Lord Farquad had picked Snow White, Shrek could have just gone home and gotten her body off his dining room table. End of story.

    From Redditor u/YourEyesSeeNothing:

    Donkey from Shrek is Red/Blue colorblind and a major color he can really see properly is Green. Maybe Donkey also took a liking to Shrek because to him Shrek was colorful compared to other characters in the series.

    From Redditor u/FlippyIsKing18:

    If Shrek never met Donkey, Donkey would have never met Dragon, who would've never have eaten Farquaad, who would've killed Shrek and Fiona. Donkey's the real hero.
