Crazy to think that there time at Disney was so short, I never even fully realized that they were their distributing partner until way later in the game, which is probably an indication of Disney's sub-par marketing for smaller movies. I'm more than happy that they're at the proper home of Universal now.
What with all Netflix cartoons based off DreamWorks Animation properties (as well as a few original DWA shows), it's easy to forget that DreamWorks started out as a company doing Live Action movies back in the late 1990s...
Has anyone ever thought that it would've been a good idea if Amblin and DreamWorks merged into one company around 2001-02, and then sell itself to NBCUniversal in like around 2005?
It's worth noting that they were also the first winner of the Best Animated Feature Oscar, what with Shrek beating Monsters Inc. and Jimmy Neutron. DreamWorks' rise and fall in the late-1990s and early-mid-2000s seems very reminiscent of MGM's history. As both grew, they experienced tons of financial success, but enough failure to eventually be sold off, resulting in their catalogs being divided between larger studios (in DreamWorks' case, mainly Paramount, Universal, and Disney). However, whereas MGM is getting back into distribution after co-producing and doing pretty well with its own acquired back-catalogs, DreamWorks seems to be relegated to just another production label.
Deep Impact was actually directed by the same person who directed Dreamworks first film the Peacemaker. Mimi Leder. They were her first 2 directorial films. Speilberg is involved with Indiana Jones 5 as a producer not a director. James Mangold who is known for the Wolverine films is directing the 5th Indiana Jones film.
Well back then they were the same company but nowadays there not because DreamWorks Animation became it’s own public company in 2004 because of their movies like Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas and The Road to El Dorado being box office bombs.
@@stephenmarray6553while I do like dreamworks animation more I find it sad how dreamworks pictures is getting more obscure recently. Back in the day Dreamworks P used to make 9 films a year while’s Dreamworks A make 2 films a year. Now at days Dreamworks P makes 1 film a year and Dreamworks A makes 3 films a year. Ok 1. Dreamworks has released 3 films a year and it didn’t end well. And 2 I feel like Dreamworks is treating Dreamworks P like a villain. It’s hard to explain.

…and Paramount now owns most of the old DreamWorks movies like The Peacemaker, Road Trip, EuroTrip and Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.

Jimmy Neutrón Boy Genius should had won!!
Fairytale Cliché: The Movie was so boring!!
@@mariajimenafigueroa8311 You mean Monsters, Inc.
@@trevonpernell0814 I love Monsters Inc, but Pixar dosen't ALWAYS desevered to be tge center of spotlight!
@@mariajimenafigueroa8311 It deserved it WAY more than Shrek though, we can agree on that, right?
@@trevonpernell0814 Yes, but Jimmy Neutron is my favorite flim! Why does everyone dosen't care for it?
That's DreamWorks SKG history for you
Deep Impact was actually directed by the same person who directed Dreamworks first film the Peacemaker. Mimi Leder. They were her first 2 directorial films. Speilberg is involved with Indiana Jones 5 as a producer not a director. James Mangold who is known for the Wolverine films is directing the 5th Indiana Jones film.
I feel like the studio is completely forgotten by audience and the public. No one will remember not a single person will remember the studio.
Just a note that it was universal that won for a beautiful mind as DreamWorks were only international distributors.
Oscar historians tend to count "A Beautiful Mind" as a victory for both Universal and DreamWorks, so still a feather in their cap.
