Puss in Boots: The Last Wish [DVD] [2023]

Product Information

ALL-NEW EXCLUSIVE SHORT “THE TRIDENT” - When you're the legendary Puss in Boots, life and death go paw in paw. In this epic original short, Puss recalls one of his most daring deaths yet. HOW TO DRAW THE PURRFECT PAWTRAIT– Join Director Joel Crawford and Co-Director Januel Mercado as they teach us how to draw our favourite characters: The scene where a Sumo wrestler flattens Puss is not shown in the film, being replaced by the scene where Gingy warns Puss about the hot oven with which the cat later burns himself to death. It was most likely cut for being too goofy for the movie, though some have said the scene was made for the trailer so as not to spoil the Gingy cameo for theatergoers. After a one-day public screening on November 26, 2022, it was released in the United States on December 21, 2022. The film received universal critical acclaim, with praise directed towards the new animation style, story, action scenes, visual style, themes, voice acting, and humor. It has also been widely considered to be superior to the original film released in 2011. Some have even considered the film as the best Shrek installment since the second film. Aidan King is a graduate of Fitchburg State University and loves writing and talking about both movies and TV. In his spare time, Aidan participates in an Improv comedy group.

FEATURE COMMENTARY– with Director Joel Crawford, Co-Director Januel Mercado, Producer Mark Swift, Editor James Ryan and Head of Story Heidi Jo Gilbert IN THE BEGINNING - Go behind the scenes with the filmmakers of PUSS IN BOOTS: THE LAST WISH to discover how they brought this great tale to life. On November 6, 2018, it was revealed in a Variety interview with Chris Meledandri, the founder and CEO of Illumination, that both the movie and Shrek 5 were in the works. However there weren't other news after this leaving the fate of both films uncertain for a year. On February 26, 2019 it was revealed that the sequel is still in development. Now with an undetermined release, Bob Persichetti of Spider-Verse was slated to direct the movie.Waking up, he is informed by a Doctor that he only has one life left out of the nine; the others having been squandered in various ways (being rammed by bulls in Pamplona while talking to a lady about liking gazpacho, getting mauled by dogs for cheating in poker, jumping off a tower while getting drunk in Switzerland, trying to lift a barbell without a spotter and getting crushed in the process, exploding in a cannon test gone wrong, having a food allergy after eating shellfish, accidentally burning himself on an oven with Gingy in Drury Lane, and getting crushed by the bell from today). Inside the cave, Puss encounters his past lives and the hooded wolf again, who introduces himself as "Death" and reveals that he wants to obtain Puss's last life as retribution for evading him. Puss cowardly runs away with the map, an act which Kitty and Perrito see from afar. Meanwhile, Goldi reveals that she wishes for a real family. Even though it's to the Bears' dismay, they oblige to help her if it's what she really wants. The song used in the credits, "La Vida es Una", was sung by the Colombian singer, Karol G., making this film the first DreamWorks film to feature a Latin American singer in the end credits.
