DreamWorks to build theme park

The Hollywood studio DreamWorks is planning to build its first theme park in the booming Persian Gulf state of Dubai.

The project, which will include themed restaurants, hotels and shops, is expected to cover five million square feet and feature rides incorporating characters from the studio's animated blockbusters such as Shrek and its forthcoming release Kung Fu Panda.

Funny.. considering that Dreamwork's parent company is Viacom... who also own's Paramounts... and they just sold off those parks.

Of course... maybe viacom was looking to get out of the "regional" market with the intention of investing in more destination type parks.
