Madagascar
The record for Madagascar is clear: 42% across 254 head-to-head matchups, with no round offering a foothold. It's below average from start to finish. Fun, frictionless, and entirely disposable — the kind of animated comedy that everyone has seen and almost no one would go to bat for. In brackets, it's a pleasant memory that folds the moment it faces anything with real weight. Among Eric Darnell's films on BingeBracket, nothing beats it.
Synopsis
Four animal friends get a taste of the wild life when they break out of captivity at the Central Park Zoo and wash ashore on the island of Madagascar.
No round to hide in: 43% opening, 45% semis, 27% finals. The record is consistent in the wrong direction — Madagascar loses ground at every stage, not just the hard ones.
The matchup with The Shining is a genuine coin flip at 50% — neither film has found an edge. Madagascar owns Chicken Run at 67% but Toy Story flips the script entirely: just 14%.
DreamWorks Originals is Madagascar's bracket: it clears the early rounds consistently but meets its ceiling in the final against Shrek (18%).
Of the 2 Eric Darnell films tracked on BingeBracket, Madagascar leads. Antz at 17% is the other entry — a 0% gap between them.
