The 67th annual Golden Globe nominations for best animated film have been announced in Beverly Hills, Calif., by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. shot past analyst estimates in releasing third-quarter earnings Tuesday, saying its only release this year, "Monsters vs. Aliens," is off to a strong start in the home video market.

DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc., whose only 2009 theatrical release, "Monsters vs Aliens," hit retail stores late last month, reports its third-quarter earnings Tuesday. The following is a summary of key developments and analyst opinion related to the three months through September:

An analyst downgraded the shares of DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. on Wednesday, saying speculation it would be bought by a media giant was unfounded.

It seems like a million years ago, sometimes, but it was really fewer than 20: In 1991, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences made “Beauty and the Beast” the very first animated feature in the history of the Academy Awards to be nominated for best picture.

DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc., maker of the "Shrek" movies and "Kung Fu Panda," announced Tuesday it will switch from Advanced Micro Devices Inc. computer chips to Intel Corp.'s as it moves toward making all 3-D movies.

Entertainment giant Walt Disney Co. will team up with several Japanese companies to produce animation for television in Japan, a leading market, a Disney official said Thursday.

A gourmet rat was the big cheese Friday, winning 10 Annie Awards, which recognize achievements in feature film and television animation.

The tagline for Disney's upcoming "Enchanted" could well be the motto for the latest push in animation: "The real world and the animated world collide."

The animated sequel "Shrek The Third" helped DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. quadruple its third-quarter profit, as the film neared $800 million in worldwide revenue, the company said Tuesday.

Hunks of hand-crafted clay trounced modern computer-animated images Saturday to take top honors at the 33rd annual Annie Awards, honoring achievements in feature film and television animation.
