## Resource

Shrek may be a perfect movie, but legally? It’s a full medieval dumpster fire. This week, the attorneys dive into everything happening beneath the swampy surface — from Farquaad’s mass eviction scheme to the ethics of imprisoning a child in a tower for twenty years “for her own good.” We break down whether Shrek and Farquaad actually formed a valid contract, whether rescuing Fiona counts as kidnapping, and whether Fiona’s rush-to-the-altar plan qualifies as marriage fraud. Plus: dragon liability, inter-species genetics, hybrid offspring law (don’t ask), and about four separate tangents into Twilight and Harry Potter legal lore. Hosted by Diana, Jenny, and Liz Subscribe, rate, and send us the next movie you want legally destroyed.
