Dragon training continues in 2013

Following the surprise smash of animated flick How To Train Your Dragon 3D , DreamWorks have announced that they already have plans for a sequel.

Although figures were low for its opening weekend, the dragon has flown with popularity and managed to find its way back to the top of the US box office charts after five weeks of its release.

DreamWorks boss Jeffrey Katzenberg has stated that he’s hoping for a sequel to be released in 2013, so with Shrek Forever After due out this summer, and Kung Fu Panda: The Kaboom of Doom out in 2011, it looks like it’s going to be a busy few years for the company. Busy – but probably financially rewarding.

And if that wasn’t enough sequel action – as New Line are hoping for a 2011 release date for their Journey to the Centre of the Earth sequel – although reasons for this seem less obvious.

More Dragons, Titans and Brendan Fraser? We can hardly contain our excitement. What do you think?
