Kanbar Entertainment
Kanbar Entertainment is an independent film production studio founded by private investor Maurice Kanbar and Disney animation veteran Sue Bea Montgomery in 2002.
The studio produced" Hoodwinked!", which was one of the first computer- animated films to be entirely independently financed.
The film was produced on a budget of less than$ 8 million, considerably less than the typical budget for an animated film.
To save costs, Kanbar Entertainment founded the animation studio Digital Eyecandy in Manila, Philippines to create most of the film's animation.
The Weinstein Company signed on as the film's distributor near the end of its production and it was released in December 2005.
The film received mixed critical reviews, but was financially successful, earning over$ 110 million worldwide.
" Hoodwinked!"'s success led to a sequel being announced in January 2006.
Although Kanbar Entertainment originally intended to finance the film entirely on its own as it had done with the first film, it was convinced by The Weinstein Company to enter into a co-financing agreement with the studio.
This allowed the film to be produced on a larger budget than its predecessor at$ 30 million.
The film was initially scheduled for a January 2010 release, but in December 2009, The Weinstein Company postponed the release date.
Kanbar Entertainment sued
The Weinstein Company in April 2011, claiming that the delay violated their agreement and also accusing the studio of not contributing to monthly production accounts after February, 2009, neglecting to consult them on a release strategy, and failing to respond to proposed changes to the film, even though they held" final authority on production decisions
Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs. Evil" was eventually released in April 2011 to almost universally negative critical reviews and financial failure, earning$ 16.9 million worldwide; only about half of its budget.
Kanbar Entertainment enlisted InterWorks, Inc. to create an Android based video game of" Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs. Evil".
Kanbar Entertainment had several ideas proposed to them by InterWorks, Inc. and chose" Hoodwinked Too! Decoder Game", which was released on the Android Market in correlation with the film's April 29, 2011 release date.
Kanbar Entertainment also produced" Lifelines", which was released in 2009 and" Seducing Charlie Barker", which was released in 2010.
