Let me be upfront: I’m tired of animated movies that feel like they came off an assembly line. Another sequel, another spin-off, another talking animal with a celebrity voice and a fart joke every ninety seconds. So when DreamWorks put out an original story for its milestone 50th feature, built on Philippine folklore, with a…
Let’s clear something up first. If you landed here because someone on a forum insisted Forgotten Island is a Blumhouse horror movie, I get it. The title sounds like a found-footage nightmare, and the trailer has a few creepy moments. But it’s a DreamWorks Animation movie, distributed by Universal, and it’s rated PG. It’s also…
I’ll be honest: when DreamWorks announced an original animated movie for 2026, my first reaction was a shrug. Sequels are the safe bet these days, and studios love safe bets. Then I saw who was directing, read what the film was actually about, and the shrug turned into a countdown. Forgotten Island hits US theaters…
Okay, I need to talk about this movie for a second, because I don’t think enough people are prepared for what DreamWorks just did with Forgotten Island. I walked out of the theater emotionally wrecked in the best possible way, and within about ten minutes of leaving the parking lot I was already deep in…
I went into Forgotten Island expecting a cute, colorful DreamWorks adventure. I came out staring at the credits and mentally texting every friend I’ve ever drifted from. Nobody warned me about that part. Directed by Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado, DreamWorks’ 50th feature (released through Universal) mixes hand-drawn 2D textures with a slick anime-flavored look,…
Okay, I need to talk about this movie because I have been thinking about nothing else since I left the theater. Forgotten Island — DreamWorks’ 50th feature, directed by Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado (the same guys who gave us Puss in Boots: The Last Wish) — just came out, and I genuinely don’t think…
Okay, I need to talk about this movie because I’ve been refreshing every trailer drop for weeks now. DreamWorks is hitting its 50th feature film milestone with ‘Forgotten Island,’ landing in theaters September 25, 2026, via Universal, and honestly? This doesn’t feel like a ‘safe’ anniversary movie. It feels like the studio finally decided to…
I went into Forgotten Island expecting to like the talking dog. I did not expect to be emotionally wrecked by him. Raww is the loud, chaotic weredog in DreamWorks’ 2026 animated adventure, and he turned out to be the character I can’t stop thinking about, and clearly I’m not the only one. Quick Setup: What…
Okay, I need to talk about Forgotten Island for a second, because I honestly don’t think people are talking about it enough yet. DreamWorks quietly dropped their 50th feature — their 50th — and instead of playing it safe with another sequel, they handed the reins to Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado, the filmmakers behind…
I’ll be honest: I didn’t expect to get emotional over an animated movie’s cast list. Then I saw who’s playing the two leads in DreamWorks’ Forgotten Island, and suddenly I was texting friends at midnight like a maniac. This is DreamWorks Animation’s 50th feature. It hits U.S. theaters on September 25, 2026 via Universal Pictures….
Okay, real talk. I went into Forgotten Island expecting a cute DreamWorks romp with pretty visuals and a tidy message about friendship. What I did not expect was to walk out of the theater quoting a fictional weredog’s panic attacks to my group chat. But here we are. If you’ve spent any time in the…
