[edit] Scottish?

Other than the accent, is there any documented support that shows that Shrek is Scottish? This would apply to an item listed under characteristics as well as the 'fictional scottish characters' category. Considering that the movies take place in a fantasy world where Scotland has not been proven to exist, I don't think that we can directly say that Shrek is, in fact, Scottish. If so, then the King would have to be listed as a "fictional english character", if we're basing this solely on the actor's chosen accent for the character. SpikeJones 13:44, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

As there were no objections, I removed the 'fictional scottish people' category. SpikeJones 13:45, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

I have an objection! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=2B-4B1fuMe0&feature=related Myself0101 (talk) 11:54, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] triplets clarification

The "fact" tag is not about the triplets, but about their names. In case anyone was wondering. SpikeJones 14:58, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shrek's brazilian voice actor

Just curious fact. In the brazilian dub, Shrek's voice was voiced by brazilian comedian Cláudio Besserman Vianna, more famous by the nickname "Bussunda". Bussunda died after voicing Shrek 1 and 2, so the 3rd movie was voiced by someone else. It'd be really creepy if he voiced only the first movie, just like Chris Farley did.

[edit] Jim Cummings

I dont quite understand that bit about Jim Cummings voicing/singing Shrek as American... Mike Myers re-did the voice, so who is Jim Cummings and what did he have to do with anything?TR 07:42, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
