Over The Hedge

The word is still "obsession" Vi...and with the greatest of respect, it's gotten really, really old.

I'm sorry.

I get your points.

Well, anyway....I won't mention it anymore. Everyone knows how I feel so really, there's no reason to. I'm sorry if I wasted board space/time.

Okay, so, "Over the Hedge" is a week away. Anybody have any box office predictions or anything?

(Trying to keep this thread from dying, people)

Probably 150 million or so. Not sure but probably more than Madagascar.

I'm excited about it.

And "First Flight" too.

BTW "Flight" was partially directed by Cameron Hood, one of the DW employees who visited Sheridan college last year with Katzenberg. (Hood graduated from Sheridan)

I'm looking foward to "First Flight", too. It's nice to see animation shorts getting so popular again...I guess we have Pixar to thank for that.

Who knows, mabye it'll win next year's Oscar for Best Animated Short.

Going to a press junket for it on Friday the 28th. If anybody has any particular questions they want me to ask of the cast and crew just let me know.

Hey Christian how was the press conference?

I'm watching The Apprentice (http://tinyurl.com/g93ll) on NBC. As it turns out, the reward this week is for the winning team to meet Jeffrey Katzenberg, during a visit to DreamWorks Animation. The segment will begin after the commercial break that is on right now.

UPDATE: Okay, the segment has ended. It was pretty interesting seeing Katzenberg interact with the two Apprentice "candidates" at the studio. Of course, a lot about Over the Hedge was mentioned. With that said, I believe the contestants can be heard in Hedge, with Sean as "BBQ Barry" and Lee as a character whose name I cannot recall.

Wow. That's very interesting.

Good prize.

I just watched it!

Lucky sons of guns.

The winners got to do voiceovers for some of the backyard civilians. It was pretty funny.

I like how Mr. Katzenberg explained the plot and said, "The animals look over the hedge and observe the weirdest creatures in the area...us". LOL

The Dreamworks studio itself doesn't look as fun and colorful as Pixar's. ^__^
