The cancellation of The Croods 2 is the reason that HTTYD 3 has been delayed - when The Croods 2 development got cancelled, they had to lay off almost 200 people, including some of the artists who've been working on HTTYD, which means it'll take a longer time to finish because fewer people are animating it.

I bet Dreamworks is as disappointed as we are that The Croods 2 got cancelled and HTTYD 3 has been pushed back a year, because it means they get less revenue from the productions. Whoever was giving Dreamworks the money to pay for developing The Croods 2 probably changed their mind or something came up and they didn't have as much funding to put into it. Really sucks though, I've been really looking forward to HTTYD 3 too.
