Po's training is taken the next step in Kung Fu Panda 3. This is the ultimate 'don't judge by its cover' story as it's dumb title is really a silly martial arts story that teaches a lot about Chinese philosophy.
I like those movies (except Madagascar), though my favorite is the Kung Fu Panda films. Shrek, Madagascar, and How to Train Your Dragon seem to be the franchises that they like push and make more sequels and television programs. Has DreamWorks truly learned? If the new original features aren't doing well, then the next strategy would be to take advantage of some of their past hits. I guess I wasn't the only one as the critical reviews were tepid, and the box office numbers were low (not a failure, but not even close to a hit). It seemed like a formidable movie fiscally, until the release of last year's Home, which I mentioned that I didn't care for. I had read more information about the company's corporate shakeup that not only involved several people replace and relocated, but it also involved the closing of the Northern California studios and the reduction of the output of feature films. Time to go back into the world of DreamWorks animation.
