DreamWorks, Aardman, Burnett, AOL Team for Movie-Based Online Game

GLENDALE, August 1: In advance of the November release of
their new feature Flushed Away,
DreamWorks Animation and Aardman Features have joined forces with Mark Burnett
and AOL for an online game inspired by the film.

In early October, "'Flushed Away' Underground
Adventure" will be available for free exclusively at
www.aol.com/flushedawaygame, and will offer a series of online challenges, each
featuring a different character, setting, or storyline from the film. Flushed
Away
will be released in theaters
nationwide on November 3. It focuses on Roddy St. James (Hugh Jackman), a
pampered pet mouse who thinks he's got it made until he is accidentally flushed
down the toilet and ends up below the streets of London, where he meets a
street-wise rat voiced by Kate Winslet.

“We believe
that the game will stand on its own as an exciting and fun piece of new
entertainment,” said DreamWorks Animation’s CEO, Jeffrey Katzenberg. “With
special custom animation that expands the world of Flushed Away, the game will be the perfect complement to the
movie-going experience."

Burnett added, "The media landscape is changing radically.
People are absorbing and interacting with their entertainment content in new
and more sophisticated ways, and this is especially true of kids. The next
generation of audience members expects and deserves so much from its content,
which is why this project is so exciting to me and my company."
