1. I’m afraid not. Disney, Warner Bros, and United Artists are all under the same umbrella. American Zoetrope is used to make Star Wars, with Lucas founding Lucasfilm a decade later than OTL to work on non-Buena Vista projects.
Oh.....................................
How........did..........all.....of......this........happen?.........Let's talk about it in the PMs............
2. Vitaphone is the former sound-on-film division repurposed in the 1960s for dubbing Anime for markets in North America, British Isles, Southern Africa and Oceania. They primarily have deals with studios such as Toei Animation, OLM, and Madhouse.
Cool! What anime do they bring over, aside from Doraemon? I have ideas if you wanna hear them in the PM.
Jetix is like Toonami as a TV network and Crunchyroll as a streaming service.
AWESOME!
So what's the company's main streaming service?
3. WDWFA and WDWTA primarily deal with original concepts, while Games Animation deals with IP projects such as animated shows in Star Wars and Marvel, and shows for Nickelodeon. They’re also like DisneyToon Studios in that they deal with lower budget animated movies (BUT NOT DIRECT TO VIDEO).
..........................
Ironic that the smaller studio does IP-based animation........
BVNA does anime projects such as Doraemon.
Cool!
4. ITTL, The Disney Channel never jumped to basic cable and stayed premium - focusing on airing all Disney movies and high quality originals like HBO.
Okay, so basically a family-friendly version of HBO?
Speaking of which, what would happen to that after Time doesn't merge with Warner Bros. ITTL? My suggestion? Put it under MGM/Columbia.
Also, what will be the animation studios of TTL ranged by each major and mini-major studio and even indie studios?
While Nickelodeon became known for their own kids sitcoms (but no Dan Schneider) and is basic cable.
What about the cartoons?
With all that cartoon library, then Nicktoons should launch in the 90s as a basic cable channel, and WITHOUT the Nick branding.....
Does MTV still get into animation? If so, then I wanna word with TTL's MTV.........
Disney’s OTL animated shows still exist, but air on TPN 1/Kid’s TPN (TTL’s PBS/PBS Kids) instead.
Why not on Nickelodeon?
TTL’s Disney Channel sitcoms are produced by Touchstone.
I thought you said Touchstone wasn't owned by Disney........
5. Atari was bought by Disney and had more quality control and the 1983 crash never happened. They team up with Nintendo and market the NES in Western countries as the “Atari Famicom Entertainment System”. This partnership continues into the present day. Atari also buys Apple and blurs the line between handheld gaming and mobile gaming - resulting in both having much more quality control.
AWESOME!!!!
At least Disney still does kids sitcoms through Nickelodeon, and they have both basic and premium cable covered on the small screen. But why and/or how do the likes of DuckTales, Recess, or Kim Possible qualify for PBS material?
Right.....
You're saying that Disney now owns Apple? Huh?
Yeah, interesting.............
Western Animation loses its stigma due to:
1. The 1915 Mutual Decision narrowly rules in favor of movies being free speech. Instead of OTL’s Hays Code, a different regulation body - the American Film Classification Council - is implemented in 1933 as an MPAA style body. The ratings are as follows: G (General Audiences), P (Parental Guidance Suggested), T (Teen; not added until 1957), R (Must Be With Adult), and X (No One Under 17). This gives filmmakers more artistic freedom by giving them a higher rating, while allowing families a family friendly option. This allows animated films and short subjects in the 30s/40s/50s to be edgier.
Okay, this is awesome!
2. The United States Government creates a public broadcaster in the 1920s called The People’s Network (TPN), stronger than OTL’s PBS and on par with OTL’s BBC in Britain. The creation of a public broadcaster results in TV NOT being marketed as a way to keep kids quiet in the 1950s. This allows for animated shows to aim for an adult audience in the 1960s/1970s.
THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!
Apple is less successful and is absorbed into Atari by 1999.
Oof........What happens that Apple is less successful? Lemme guess, the f###ing Bandai Pippin?
In the 2000s, Atari releases the Game Boy Pod, a foldable game console capable of not only video games but also playing music. This eventually culminates in the Game Phone in 2010, a touchscreen device that can be hooked up to a special console dock - basically a hybrid of the iPhone and Nintendo Switch.
............
I WANT TO F@@@ING LIVE IN THIS WORLD NOW!!!!!!
What will be the assets of the other companies?
