Also, why would this franchise have saved Farley's life? If anything it probably would have created the same result as before.
This. His problems weren't the result of a lack of success. His success gave him the financial means to support his habits and created a circle of yes-men to enable it. More success would have perpetuated this cycle.

Not sure about life saving, but it would have helped. Farley 's success of course helped fund his bad habits, but most of what I've read say that his self-consciousness fueled them even more. He knew he was a fat slob and most of his laughs came from him taking that persona over the top. He would do anything for a laugh because he thought if people weren't laughing they didn't like him, and more laughs came the more he drank or snorted. Having the mega-success that came with Shrek just by sitting on a stool and providing his voice could have helped him see he didn't have to abuse himself for the friends
