Is Dreamworks Animation more hit or miss?

>>84923596
If a character rides a mount, the movie is more likely to be good.

In terms of quality and originality they miss more than hit.
In terms of sales they hit more than miss

why are almost all dreamworks movies crap?

just pull the trigger

>>84923596

I didn't actually realise how good dream works were till I saw this picture...

I loved Turbo, I think I'm the only one though.

>>84925520

they're all good you wizard

I usually avoid watching DW movies but end up loving them when I finally got around it
Still never watched Kung Fu Panda

>>84923596
Just my opinion, feel free to attack or make your own.

But I personally feel they are a 'miss' more and more these days.

Despite the hate some people give them they actually do make more good movies then not.

The problem is when they miss it's a REALLY bad miss.

Like, how the fuck did the people that make Prince of Egypt and Kung Fu Panda make fucking Shark Tale?

>>84923596
Id say they had a strong start that dropped really fast but came up again, save for an overreliance on sequels.

And they still did great with Httyd2 and KFP2/3

>>84926683
You can notice obvious shit, but the rest is fucking stupid and tasteless.

>>84923596

usually

but prince of egypt, el dorado, and HTTYD were all excellent

PoE is probably one of my favorite animated movies

>>84926683
I don't know half of these movies, but megamind was actually pretty meta and funny as hell

Other than that, it's all alright. Just kfp2 was obviously way better than the first and third.

>Meh
What's wrong with you?

>>84923596
you know
the guy from how to train your dragon is super fuckable now that i think about it

>>84926365
Kfp 1 and 2 are good and God tier. 3rd one is the worst, but it is still good in terms of DreamWorks movie.

>>84923596
Is it wrong to say that EVERYTHING after Flushed Away was utter garbage?

You shouldn't count the Aardman stuff since all Dreamworks did was distribute it.

>>84927012
Well, Dreamworks is going to count it as theirs
That may be related to why they didn't get along very well.

>>84926979
No. Literally shit taste if that's the case.

>>84927079
My top 3 would probably be Sinbad.... uhh, Shrek and Madagascar? All their other movies are forgettable as fuck. Prince of Egypt was alright but I don't really like preachy movies. Megamind was alright. Chicken Run, Flushed Away and Wallace & Grommit get points for the art style but weren't spectacular. The rest I haven't seen for whatever reason, or are just obvious dreck.

>>84927158
>Madagascar
>better than KFP2 or HTTYD
What a shit taste.

Personally most are miss more than hit. Shrek 1&2, HTTYD series, Kung fu Panda 1&2, Rise of the Guardians, and Puss in Boots are my favorites. Prince of Egypt, Sinbad, and El Dorado are up there too.

It's a weird concept.
Like someone told them "did you know a car's turbocharger is called a snail because it looks like a snail shell?" and they went "That should be a movie!"

>>84927231

>>84923596
The dragons are one of my faves animated movies of all time.
Monster vs aliens was good, El dorado too.
Kung Fu panda 1 had a good concept, shit execution.
Same for Jack Frost.
Not sure about the shreks, I loved them when I was younger, should watch them again.
Croods is on my list.
Rest is literally what or complete and utter shit.
I don't know, Dreamworks has a really hard time making good movies..
I mean, you can't even compare them to Pixxar.
Dreamworks movies always felt so.. american? I don't know.

KFP has always been good to God tier. The only except being the third one, which even still wasnt that bad. Basically:

2>1>3

It's one of those movies where you see the trailer and immediately think it's shit. When in reality, it's actually pretty good. Give it a watch, highly recommend it.

This.

Second villain of kfp is the best villain DreamWorks has ever had. Very few villains come close.

>>84928000
Pretty much. Shen's one of my favorite villains from DreamWorks and just in general when it comes to any villain. Reminded me of Frieza a little bit from DBZ

I remember Flushed Away being my favorite of the Aardman movies, but I haven't seen it in a long time. Penguins didn't aspire to be more than a good action-comedy, and it had good action and good comedy, so I rated it highly.

Honest question - do Aardman movies count? Is it a collaboratiom between both or does Aardman do most of the labor?

>>84929421
They were Aardman-produced and Dreamworks-distributed, but they're officially part of the canon.

>>84926683
Shit taste m8

>>84923596
Most surprising thing about this list is that I barely see any "DreamWorks Faces"

Did anyone else notice? Or is it just me?

>Spirit

Okay, so the moral's kinda predictable "don't be racist" crap, although it's more the 90s style than the modern "you should feel guilty all the time."

And the soundtrack fucking sucks.

And Matt Damon's voiceover is completely unnecessary as he does nothing but tell us what we're already seeing.

But it's still a gorgeous movie.

I haven't seen it in a long time but I remember really liking the world designs and the animation, and there were a few funny jokes. Still not a good movie, but not irredeemable like Shark Tale. I elaborated on my ratings more in the reply.

Its amazing how we got King Fu Panda after fucking Bee Movie.

>tfw when my 11 old brother and my stepmothrr actually think that Home is a good movie
It literally ends in a dance sequence.That movie was predictable in every scene and the "villain" was pure garbage

>>84927893
hey if you really like the first 2 kung fu pandas I really think you should check out the third, it's pretty good. I think the second one is better but the third one is still great.

It is the Jewiest movie I have ever seen.

>>84927785
It was more so a minor plot point that despite not having a muscular body like the furious five, Po could beat Tai Lung because of his heft, since it made it harder for him to locate Po's nerve points to immobilize him.

>>84928245
Flushed Away is a pretty good movie.

Have you considered not being retarded?

Prince of Egypt genuinely surpasses the "durr, kid movie" formula Dreamworks, Pixar and Disney alike aspire to and genuinely becomes a fucking movie, it's seriously one of my favourite movies ever.

Ignore everyone else, Kung-fu Panda is mediocre. The first one was just the usual "Student learns secret technique and becomes the ultimate Kung-Fu badass" thing that Drunken Master and countless other movies have done better, with an element of the usual "Loser learns to fit in" thrown in. There are seven other kung-fu masters--Shifu, Oogway, and the Furious Five--trying to defeat the villain, and none of them amounts to shit at the end of the day. A more accurate title would've been "Kung-Fu Movie-By-Numbers".

KFP 2 is even worse, being basically a rehash of the first movie with Po mastering another secret technique (Inner Peace) to defeat another vaguely tragic villain. Here though, the "tragic villain" schtick is even stupider since Shen is a remorseless, genocidal psychopath who even murders his own henchmen. Shen's master plan ("I'll invade all of China with seven ships!") is retarded, the new side characters are just as useless as the old ones, and the whole movie is basically just a long Wile E. Coyote episode where the protagonists repeatedly try and fail to stop Shen over and over until Po wins.

I haven't seen the third, but by all accounts it's worse than the first two. Everything /co/ loves is mediocre at best.

I like MvA. Croods was okay, but yeah forgettable. Puss 'n' Boots is pretty decent, although nothing special if you're above it's age bracket. First season of TURBO FAST was actually pretty hilarious, surprisingly so for coming from such a terrible dull boring movie. Kungfu Panda was alright. Don't care for Peabody or Dragons.

It's probably worth exploring Croods and Home in particular as they actually made money.
