Guillermo del Toro reflects on DreamWorks Animation's two Oscar nominations.
... On “Puss in Boots,” I felt like one of the many parents that the movie has. Every experience I’ve had at DreamWorks has been really rewarding in terms of how they connect with the audience. Following “Kung Fu Panda 2,” all of the audience test screenings and seeing it get a really strong foothold and then “Puss” also getting the CinemaScore that it got and getting the critical consensus that it got — all of that is hugely satisfying ...
I'm guessing that the folks at Pixar ... and Mr. Spielberg ... are a wee bit unhappy they didn't make the cut. But then, nobody hits it out of the park every time at bat. Sometimes even champion players whiff.
I just hope Disney doesn't boycott next year's Oscars.

What exactly is G del T doing at DW? Is he really helping or just a name to put on the credits?
He really contributed. On Puss and Guardians.
He's also producing a DW animation film being made in Texas at ReelFX called Day of the Dead. It will be their first animated feature.
"He's also producing a DW animation film being made in Texas at ReelFX called Day of the Dead."
Wow, that's probably the most outrageous thing I've heard all day. I would LOVE to read the press release you found stating that little tidbit of "news".
Check it out.

I should have been more specific in my incredulity.
I see no indication whatsoever in that job posting that Guillermo is specifically "producing a DW animation film being made in Texas at ReelFX".
So, again I ask, where is the press release stating that Dreamworks is making a film at ReelFX??
Del Toro is executive producing Day of the Dead for Reel FX. Dreamworks is not involved.
