It's been a big part of their problem--not attracting FAMILIES. ALL of their tv stuff in particular, is being specifically geared towards the toddler set, which can only further limit their goals of financial independence.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07768086712318349494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-65553856850073396522015-06-05T12:04:39.396-07:002015-06-05T12:04:39.396-07:00I'm sure the anticipated premiere of DreamWork...I'm sure the anticipated premiere of DreamWorks Dragons: Race to the Edge might have something to do with it.<br /><br />While this is good news, there are two things that are important here.<br /><br />1. I don't have a problem with “younger skewing, lighter and more comedic films.” So long as they remember to leave room for films/franchises like Kung Fu Panda and How to Train Your Dragon. Whether they realize this or not, they have their audiences (and fans) as well. Once again, the passing assessment of animation as a 'genre' is just wrong (in any context). <br /><br />2. Putting more of these “younger skewing, lighter and more comedic films.” in the hands of talented writers and directors might also provide some creative benefits on the side. With Bonnie Arnold and Mireille Soria as the current Presidents of DWA's feature division, I have very little doubt that they can do that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01535114760376505222noreply@blogger.com
