The Croods: A New Age | Nov 25, 2020 | RIP Cloris Leachman

[Fancyarcher]

Dreamworks is announcing a lot of sequels today, not surprising, given how unsuccessful the majority of their original movies seem to be now.

 

The first Croods was pretty good, and the end was basically a set-up for sequels.

[Blankments]

I liked the Croods so I'm looking forward to this

[Mojoguy]

The first one was announced in 2005, but had numerous delays, Emma started doing the voice work in 2010 and it wasn't released until 2013. Amazing how long it takes these movies to get made.

Well, Disney had been trying to get a movie made about the Snow Queen for 70 years. That has to be some kind of record.

I liked the open-ended ending though, but I guess that leaves room for more. esp with developing romance of the daughter.

Well this is dreamworks for you, so you really shouldn't be surprised that their doing a sequel to a hit film.

It's DW. All their movies are made with sequels in mind.

[tupek]

I think I am the only one here who didn't like The Croods.

 

That was the last Hollywood animated movie I watched, and I watched it only because I thought Chris Sanders would create pretty interesting designs for the creatures that starred in the movie. I was disappointed about that. I didn't expect anything good about the story, though.

The Croods 2 can't come fast enough now that Dragon's Friday numbers are coming out.

[kayumanggi]

The first was beautifully animated.

[tupek]

I think Croods 2 will be yeeet another meh "success" for DWA.  But, the good thing is that they deserve it.

[The Panda]

The Croods sucked

[Cochofles]

The Croods was the definition of "meh."

[kowhite]

The Croods was the definition of "meh."

I'd define it more as the definition of...hey, that's better than I thought it'd be.

Walt Disney wanted to do John Carter before Snow White originally.....

[kayumanggi]

It was ok for me. I'm still sad MU didn't even get an Oscar nomination.

New date

 

Fox will now release THE CROODS 2 on December 22, 2017. #TheCroods2

— BoxOffice (@BoxOffice)

August 21, 2014

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Bad date in my opinion, better off in November.

[Jonwo]

November already had Grinch and the Untitled Pixar film so may be a good move. Wouldn't be surprised if Grinch moves up to either November. 3rd or November 10th

[DAJK]

I still don't see the update on BOM, but I think the Dec date is much better than Nov, I mean, you know, sure either Avatar 2 or 3 will open then but still not a bad date

[TServo2049]

Um...Fox is releasing the Avatar sequels too. So could these moves be interpreted as a sign that they're NOT opening an Avatar sequel that weekend? (Unless they plan to do an Avatar/Alvin and release it the weekend before...)
