I know right? YouTube videos shouldn't spawn merchandise or be at this big of a scale of having a TV series or movie. 2008 YouTube was much better when it was just people making videos for fun, and not as a career, there wasn't so many ads. Or censorship.

The worst part is, the remake's success could possibly even open the floodgates for more remakes, the thing is nobody asked for remakes, and yet they succeed because nostalgia sells, and studios don't want to take risks anymore like they used to. And they heavily market the remakes because they know nostalgia sells, and the original movie get swept under the rug. All we can do is pray this success doesn't trigger a chain reaction for more unnecessary live action remakes of more DreamWorks movies

DreamWorks doing a remake feels like a betrayal given how they built their empire with Shrek, a movie that mocked Disney, and the fact that DreamWorks built their identity from being Disney's biggest rival makes it hurt even more

"On the one hand, gold. On the other hand, painful agonizing failure" is the quote that sums up DreamWorks movies, they've always been going back and forth, making an absolute masterpiece, and then making a trash movie. Ironically enough this quote comes from a DreamWorks movie, The Road to El Dorado.

Considering how DreamWorks was made to be Disney's biggest competitor/rival, then it's safe to say that they have become the very thing they swore to destroy.
