So, before I wrap up the eighties, I should share what I'm planning for the nineties, especially since there's some stuff I haven't figured out yet, and I'm hoping for suggestions.
Disney
Will probably start off the decade with a couple of feature films based on Uncle Scrooge and Winnie the Pooh, as well as distributing Pixar's stop-motion/CG hybrids. Hopefully that will convince them to do features again.
Pixar
As with The Nightmare Before Christmas, their filmography will consist primarily of stop-motion CG hybrids, and the staff will consist of John Lasseter, Tim Burton, Henry Selick, Joe Ranft, and newcomers like Pete Docter and Andrew Stanton. I imagine they'll start out with The Brave Little Toaster, before moving onto James and the Giant Peach, Toots and the Upside Down House, Corpse Bride, and Coraline. The lunch where the Pixar guys came up with Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, and Wall-E will probably still happen, though those films will probably be different from OTL's versions.
Warner Brothers
Steven Spielberg will work there throughout the nineties, and the films made at Amblimation IOTL (like We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story and Balto, along with the cancelled films like Cats and the early version of Shrek) will be done at WB instead, and will have Chuck Jones and Richard Williams on the staff.
Fox Animation
John Musker and Ron Clements will direct The Little Mermaid there, this time with help from Don Bluth. My original idea was that it would be split up into two different divisions, one run by Musker and Clements, and the other run by Bluth, but now I'm thinking of having Musker and Clements leave Fox to work at Universal. Anyway, Don Bluth will run the studio throughout the nineties, and will do some of his films that were cancelled IOTL like the Dragon's Lair movie, his version of Beauty and the Beast, Satyrday, and The Little Blue Whale.
Fleischer
Ralph Bakshi will continue to run the studio, and will do a mixture of feature films and TV shows. John Kricfalusi will create Ren and Stimpy (though ITTL he'll be exposed early on for his douchbaggery and will be kicked out, and Bob Camp will be recognized as the true creator of R&S), and Danny Antonucci will create Ed, Edd n Eddy. Maybe other Nicktoons like Rocko's Modern Life and SpongeBob SquarePants will be Fleischer shows too?
Universal
I had the idea of John Musker and Ron Clements coming to work here and taking over after Walter Lantz's death. Still trying to figure out what kind of films they should do, though. I also had the idea of Brad Bird coming to work here and having The Iron Giant and The Incredibles being 2D Universal films.
MGM
I imagine like IOTL, a lot of Cartoon Network shows like Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken, and The Powerpuff Girls will start out as Hanna-Barbera productions. As for feature films, I could see Wayne and Diana Young pitching Ferngully: The Last Rainforest to them, as well as the studio also producing The Pagemaster. Hopefully the terrible Tom and Jerry movie will be butterflied.

There's still some other stuff I haven't figured out, like what studio Klasky-Csupo will work at, for instance. Any suggestions?
