A surprise upset may come in the form of Disney's Monsters, Inc and Nickelodeon's Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius.

Shrek

Plot: In order to free his swamp from fairytale creatures, an ogre named Shrek sets out on a mission to rescue the lovely Princess Fiona from a fire-breathing dragon. He has a chatterbox donkey as his companion for his escapades.
How their love-hate relationship blooms into a warm friendship is what Shrek is all about.

Quotable quote: 'Ogres are much worse. They'll make a soup from your freshly peeled skin. They will shave your liver; squeeze the jelly from your eyes. Actually, it's quite good on toast.'
