Finding Oscar

Reuters: DreamWorks Animation Set for IPO. DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. will find out this week if box office success can be turned into Wall Street cash in a widely anticipated initial public offering that could raise up to $725 million. The sale would separate the animation group that has made films like “Shark Tale” and “Shrek 2” from the live-action unit of DreamWorks, formed by moguls Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg and home to movies like “The Terminal.”

Bug’s Life. Antz. Finding Nemo. Shark Tale. The Incredibles. Will DreamWorks follow with a superhero movie too? DreamWorks Animation contracts have finally be released, including Jeffrey Katzenberg’s employment agreement, Steven Spielberg’s consulting agreement and David Geffen’s consulting agreement.
