DreamWorks CEO Katzenberg and the focus on reviving the feature films business in 2015-2016

12/16/2015

Katzenberg says making 2 or 3 successful feature films is his No. 1 priority after several years of distraction. Insiders say Katzenberg was spread too thin, and engaged in empirebuilding with a effort to get into several related businesses, and was unable to bring his unique knack for feature films to bear on the work at DreamWorks Animation. This was evident following the failure of Rise of the Guardians in 2012, and the losses from Penguins of Madagascar film which failed to cover costs at the box office. Most of the time Katzenberg would be out in China or other places in an effort to expand quickly, which now appears to have yielded poor results.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
