Shrek & Donkey best movie couple?

By Alexandra Heilbron on February 22, 2008 | 15 Comments

Shrek and his sidekick Donkey (nope, not his wife, Princess Fiona) have been voted Best Movie Couple, despite the fact that they’re animated characters, voiced by Mike Myers and Eddie Murphy. Pretty Woman stars Julia Roberts and Richard Gere tied for the top spot in the survey by UK Cinema Industry. Dirty Dancing‘s Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey came in third with Homer and Marge from The Simpsons Movie. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal finished in the top ten for their portrayal of gay cowboys in null. UK Cinema Industry representative Grace Carley said of the top two: “It’s an unusual choice. Shrek and Donkey are not even human.” Not to mention, they’re also not a couple…??

   Shrek 3 sucked big time. The first 2 were hilarious. Strange they would be voted as best movie couple, but we are living in a strange world.

    The Bruce Museum is nice, but unless you’re interested in the current exhibition (cave photography) I wouldn’t go unless I was bringing kids. They have the main exhibit room and then the rest of the museum is a mini natural history museum designed for the younger set.
