Why Did Lord Farquaad Hate Fairy Tale Creatures In Shrek?

The main villain in Shrek was Lord Farquaad (voiced by John Lithgow), who was trying to get rid of all the fairy tale creatures in Duloc, but the movie didnt quite explore his reasons for this. In 2001, DreamWorks established itself as a worthy competitor to Pixar with the animated fantasy comedy Shrek

, directed by Andrew Adamson and Vicky Jenson. Loosely based on the 1990 childrens picture book of the same name by William Steig, Shrek took viewers to a world where different fairy tale characters, creatures, and humans co-exist, but it completely changed the idea of the traditional fairy tale.
