>less than a year out >still no trailer >still no teaser art >not even an official logo reveal So what's the plan here exactly... ?
>>151751765They forgot to make it.
>>151751765Feels like most animated movies have three month marketing campaigns, tentpole releases (Mario, Shrek) get longer campaigns. No point teasing something like Forgotten Island when kids and normalfags will (no pun intended) forget about it.
>>151751765No information means you can't have your expectations tainted by bad information and you might go see it.
>>151753431Man, I wish we lived in a world where "from the creator of BOJACK HORSEMAN" or "from the visionaries behind PUSS IN BOOTS: THE LAST WISH" brought about more excitement than [YET ANOTHER SEQUEL COMING FIFTEEN YEARS LATER BECAUSE WE'RE OUT OF IDEAS]. Forgotten Island's been on my mind a lot lately
>>151752763badum tsss
>>151754297Huhuhuhuh... You said 'taint'
>>151751765There is no plan. They're just throwing darts at a board, as do all movie companies.
Watch there be a 5hrek bonus short paired with Forgotten Island because DW has so little faith in the film
>>151756500doubles confirm
>>151754447Was Croods 2 any good? I know the directors are also responsible for that
>>151751765Dreamworks is being generous and letting Disney ride their Zoo2pia high right now before wiping the floor with them come 2026
>>151760012I like DreamWorks as much as the next guy, but they delayed Shrek 5 to 2027 and only have Forgotten Island next year. And because Illumination is Universal's baby, they get top-priority. DreamWorks can't step on their toes: Mario in spring, Minions in summer.
>>151760318I hate how much sense this makes. Damn you Minions
>>151760318>>151760506There's no logo, clips nor trailer for a new Minions movie either, and that's due for next summer as well, so they might delay it to 2027
>>151752763CARLOS!?!
>>151759181Yes it was
>>151760506Yeah. Think back to the pandemic: DreamWorks was the testing ground for all sorts of wacky release strategies, Trolls going direct-to-digital, simultaneous digital/theatrical launch with Croods 2, a cautious release with Bad Guys in a non-competitive April.Now consider that Illumination delayed Minions 2 a full TWO YEARS just so they could hit that lucrative summer spot and gross a near-billion. They didn't want to risk devaluing the IP by releasing on digital or encouraging inconsistent movie-going habits. Look what happened to WDAS/Pixar when they pulled that shit, it took both studios two flops and a Moana/Inside Out to hit healthy profits again.>>151760522Minions isn't budging, Despicable Me 4 stood toe-to-toe with Inside Out 2 and still managed a respectable 900 million haul. Toy Story 5 means nothing to them. They're also not going to sabotage their ad campaign for Mario to start marketing their next film, that isn't very bright. Audiences will show up for Minions if you put the trailer before Mario.
