Line 36:
* Speaking of ''[[The Black Cauldron]]'', that movie itself almost became the franchise killer of the ''entire'' [[Disney Animated Canon]]. It cost the studio so much money they could only barely manage to get back up. Understandably, it took ''Cauldron'' till 1998 to get released on home video.
** To a lesser extent, ''[[Home on the Range]]'' temporarily killed Disney's traditional animation department and made them move into CGI.. until they got back on their feet with ''[[The Princess and the Frog]]'' and ''[[Winnie the Pooh]]''.
* The failure of the ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]'' movie, ''[[DuckTales (1987) the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp|Duck Tales the Movie Treasure of The Lost Lamp]]'', prevented the making of movies based on ''[[Darkwing Duck (animation)|Darkwing Duck]]'' and ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]''.
* The critical failure of ''[[Rugrats Go Wild]]'' (a crossover film between ''[[Rugrats]]'' and ''[[The Wild Thornberrys]]'') actually prevented the making of a fourth ''Rugrats'' film and a third ''Wild Thornberries'' film.
** Despite the success of ''[[The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie]]'', the failure of ''[[Rugrats Go Wild]]'' and the ''The'' ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'' ''Movie'' was enough to kill off Nicktoon movies.
