Nope, Paramount.

JK just makes the movies...Paramount now decides when and how they are marketed and released.

John Lasseter has no say on when Madagascar 2 is released. That's down to Paramount Pictures now.
When did John have control over DreamWorks? :wink:

There was a comment above saying that they should move Madagascar 2 for something.

I was just saying that JL has no say over the releases of other animation studios (and probably has little say in how and when Disney issue their movies since it's all down to well tested marketing).

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

Ah, I get it now.

My bad. Again.
