Shrek 2

Audio problem: When the Fairy Godmother sings "Holding Out for a Hero" she tells the pianist to 'put it in C minor,' yet the pianist immediately begins to play in G minor, and the rest of the song is sung in that key. (01:08:15)

Audio problem: When Fairy Godmother is lying on the piano using her wand as a microphone and singing about tossing and turning, sometimes Kyle's hands don't match the sounds of the piano. This is especially visible in very last shot - just before she says "Hit it", Kyle raises one hand and then we hear a part requiring both hands.

Question: If I remember correctly, in the trailer the magazine that the Wolf was reading was called "The New Porker" or something similar. Any reason why it was changed to "Pork Illustrated" in the final film?

Answer: The gag is that the wolf has developed a peculiar sexual fetish: he wears women's clothing for fun and is attracted to pigs. The magazine was changed for the trailer to be less suggestive (and thus to make the trailer G-rated).
