Why is Dreamworks still using Shrek to promote its latest movie?
It's like if Disney used "From the makers of Oliver & Company" in ads for Encanto.

No it’s not. It’s like if Disney still used tinkerbell to promote themselves, or music from Pinnochio - you know, their biggest movies

The point is those movies are old as fuck. Surely Dreamworks has some recent movies worth plugging.

Because they want their latest movie to get that same audience that grew up with early DreamWorks.
Instead of whatever audience Trolls and Boss Babu gets.

Shrek hasn’t had any new content for decades.
They removed that app game and took down his ride at Universal.
It’s all about minions.

I would say that its a big failure on DreamWorks part if Shrek is the most famous thing they've done that 20 years later, they're still riding it's coattails.

shame how Dreamworks will never acknowledge Antz despite being one of their very best works. It's a delicate subject for them due to the Pixar controversy

I think they just like the memes, remember how Megamind is getting a series now due to the movie turning into a meme factory.

Shrek is unironically one of the biggest movies of all time. It will be held up in 10,000 years in the same way we look at Shakespeare now

No it's not, Shrek is way more popular and essentially Dreamwork's mascot if you don't count the little boy in the logo.

this is certainly a better cast than the one from Prince of Egypt. Just saying. Katzenberg should've understood when making PoE that audiences want fun characters, not just quality animation
