For the quarter, Shrek the Third contributed approximately $179.4 million of revenue, driven primarily by its release into the home video market and additional international box office receipts in the period. Through the end of 2007, the title reached approximately 15.6 million units shipped on a worldwide basis, net of actual returns and estimated future returns. Shrek the Third was the second highest-grossing U.S. film in 2007 and has reached approximately $800 million in box office on a worldwide basis, making it the fourth best-performing animated movie of all time.
and as for 2009/2010:
DreamWorks Animation's first film in "Ultimate" 3-D, Monsters vs. Aliens, is scheduled to be released in the U.S. on March 27, 2009. The Company also announced plans to move its fall 2009 release, How to Train Your Dragon, to March 26, 2010, followed by Shrek Goes Fourth on May 21, 2010 and its planned fall 2010 release, which has a working title of MasterMind, on November 5, 2010.
whoa! that means only one movie in 2009, with a full year between monsters vs. aliens and how to train your dragon, and three movies in 2010.. craziness.
