The End Credits Book: Volume IV

End Credits #35: How To Train Your Dragon: Homecoming (DreamWorks)

This should be David's last request for a while, just in case you guys wanted to know.

Hey, do you know that in DreamWorks' specials credits, that everyone is named. The people who made them, and the technology crew themselves, mostly even the Studio Operations crew as well . . . for something that's 22 minutes, they sure do deliver movie-like credits.

I mean, we've had examples. Merry Madagascar, Scared Shrekless, Trolls Holiday and Trolls: Holiday in Harmony.

But this one should be the very shortest out of the clan. Sometimes, it feels like that NBC PAID them to make this, hence why these credits are so quick.

So, enjoy them. If we get more DWA Holiday Special credits, then expect more examples. But for now, enjoy this . . .
