DreamWorks Pictures: Difference between revisions

'''DreamWorks Pictures''' (also known as '''DreamWorks SKG''', '''DreamWorks, LLC''', and formerly '''DreamWorks Studios''') is an American film production company originally founded in 1994 by [[Amblin Entertainment]] co-founder Steven '''S'''pielberg, former Walt Disney Studios charmain Jeffery '''K'''atzenberg, and Geffen/DGC Records founder David '''G'''effen in an ambitious attempt to create a new Hollywood studio. In 1995, [[CJ Entertainment]] became an investor in the studio and began distributing and licensing select titles in Korea and Asia. Until 2005, DreamWorks usually released their own films domestically, although some titles were co-released or released internationally by another studio, most often [[Universal Pictures]] (who were their principal international distribution partner through [[United International Pictures|UIP]] during their independent era) or [[Paramount Pictures]] (or, in some cases, [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]], [[Warner Bros. Pictures]], [[Columbia Pictures]], and even [[Buena Vista International]] for at least one film). [[DreamWorks Animation]] was originally the feature film animation subsidiary of DreamWorks Pictures until the two split into separate companies on October 27, 2004. DreamWorks Pictures is now legally known as '''DW II Management, Inc.''', with the DreamWorks name and logo being used under license from DreamWorks Animation.
