At DreamWorks Animation
Barrons tells us:
But actually, staff at the Glendale campus aren't morose. As one artist said to me: "We got a Number One movie this week, and we'll take it." The question is, how will P & S hold up when Miss Piggy and friends enter the marketplace on Friday?
Animation is wrapping up on How to Train Your Dragon II, and only lighting and surfacing remain to be done. Home, the short for which is displayed below, comes out in the Fall.

A staffer noted:
I've got no idea what Home's final budget will be, but DWA usually produces 150ドル-170 million dollar features. By the accounts I've heard around the studio, the picture is funny and fast-paced. DreamWorks Animation hasn't had a lot of luck with its recent originals (The Croods excepted), but maybe Home will break with recent box office history and have big returns.
If so, it'll mean that the majority of DWA's 2014 feature slate will be winners.
Last week, DreamWorks Animation's dog-and-boy film Mr. Peabody and Sherman was labeled a flop after it took in just 32ドル.5 million domestically during its opening weekend. However, Peabody isn't rolling over just yet. It made 21ドル.5 million domestically this past weekend, enough to take the top spot during a slow patch. And the second-week drop was smaller than some analysts expected. ...
[DreamWorks Animation] hasn't had a 200ドル million domestic grossing film since How to Train Your Dragon in 2010. Since then, Pixar topped the 200ドル million mark with Brave; Disney Animation with Tangled and smash Frozen; Universal with Despicable Me; and Warner Brothers with The Lego Movie. ...

Home has a lot fewer major characters than most of our movies, so rigging was easier, we didn't have as many complicated rigs to do. ...

Which is why P & S's 32ドル.5 million domestic opening is perceived as a "flop" . Make the movies for 70ドル - 80ドル million range like Illumination and that 32ドル.5 million opening looks a lot less like a "flop". Didn't the Lego Movie cost 60ドル million. That's more like it.
I'm not sure if P & S is a flop in the long run ... probably not as bad a write down as Guardians or Turbo (or Bee Movie) . Hopefully HTTYD 2 makes up for it .
