Eisner = Shrek ???

[KNWVIKING]

Did anybody else see this this morning ? DW was watching one of the morning news shows this morning and they had side-by-side shots of ME & Shrek. DW said they are identical except of course for the color and the Shrek addons. Anybody have access to those pics and care to post ?

I did see that! They mentioned that the creators of Shrek purposely made him look like Ei$ner as a "dig".

I really did not see much resemblence though.

I will say that the recent pics of Ei$ner look like he hasn't been sleeping very well lately...

I thought that he was supposed to look like the evil king in Shrek. Maybe both?

Actually it was rumored when Shrek came out that Jeffrey Katzenburg of Dreamworks, former Disney Exec and major Ei$ner foe, specifically had the character Shrek modeled after Ei$ner because he hated him so much. The difference between Ei$ner and Shrek... Shrek turned out to be a good guy in the end.
