What if Illumination actually tried?

No, don't take this as if we dislike Illumination Entertainment. Some of their movies are indeed good. We're only disappointed that they wasted some of their potential and made errors like overusing the Minions and making forgettable cash-ins. So, we decided to make an alternate scenario where Illumination actually tried.

List of changes

 * The studio would release at least a film by year and occasionally two or three.
 * More live-action/CGI hybrid films would've been made.
 * Illumination gets into the business of developing television.
 * Instead of the Minions, Illumination would have a talking lightbulb as its logo to symbolize its name.
 * Following the acquisition of DreamWorks Animation by NBCUniversal, the company opted to make Jeffrey Katzenberg responsible for both studios, considering the latter has longer and better experience on the animation field.
 * Despicable Me would end up after the second film, although a prequel film would be eventually released in 2022, following Gru's rise to villainy.
 * The Lorax would slightly be different.
 * While the Mario film would still be made, it'd instead be given to DreamWorks.
 * In order to complete with Disney and Square-Enix's Kingdom Hearts series of crossover JRPGs, NBCUniversal alongside with DreamWorks and Illumination would collaborate with Bandai-Namco to do so.
