sinbad legend of the seven seas all monsters

The character of Sinbad originally comes from the book Arabian Nights, which relates the details of his seven voyages.

Like Spirit, Sinbad will be “tradigitally” animated for a blend of classic-style animation with stunning backgrounds. Nonetheless, Spirit was fairly successful relative to the lowered expectations of both the studio and prognosticators.

None of the animal characters spoke, so music and sporadic narration from Matt Damon had to move the plot along.

Adding to the uncertainty regarding the film’s box office prospects was the fact that the film used a unique approach to tell its story. Rather than follow up their greatest animated triumph with another CGI production, DreamWorks instead took the rather risky approach of going back to traditional animation for Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, though they did wind up using some CG techniques to render some of the backgrounds. CGI animated films saw an explosion of growth over the months that followed, with Monsters, Inc., Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius and Ice Age all proving to be solid audience draws.

In 2001, Shrek was a terrific success story, as the CGI ogre and his donkey friend deconstructed classic fairy tales and captured the hearts and wallets of movie audiences along the way. DreamWorks has been trying to stake its claim over the past few years as the 'other' big animation studio with varied results.
