Over the Profit Margin

According to Animated News, via Yahoo! Finance, Dreamworks' profits rose thanks to stronger-than-expected sales of the "Over the Hedge" DVD.



Yahoo! Finance reports that DreamWorks Animation received an unexpectedly higher first-quarter profit due to higher-than-expected DVD sales for Over The Hedge and other library titles.

This is great news for Dreamworks, and for animation in general. I think there needs to be at least two big players on the market to continue to push each other. Dreamworks and Pixar have a history of quietly competing with each other, and in my opinion it can only further the overall quality of their respective output.

It's just like back in the day when you had the WWF and the WCW, only with far less lubed up men in facepaint.
