The Croods animate DreamWorks after Guardians flop

DreamWorks Animation SKG reported better-than-expected quarterly results, riding on the worldwide success of its animated film, The Croods, sending its shares up 9 per cent in trading after the bell.

The Croods, which tracks a prehistoric family on a road trip and features the voices of Nicholas Cage and Ryan Reynolds, raked in nearly US$479 million (HK$3.7 billion) worldwide, of which about 66 per cent was from international markets.
