Walt Disney Animation Studios[]
- Main article: Disney Animated Canon
The films collectively produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios are dubbed the Disney Animated Canon or Disney animated features canon. Please do not move these films from one portion of this list to another. In particular, do not add other films to the Walt Disney Animation Studio (WDAS) films portion of the list UNLESSDisney has announced a new WDAS production. What is and what isn't in the official canon has already been fixed; as the official WDAS can be found here.
Any of the following are *not* part of the official WDAS canon:
- Pixar and Blue sky films, whether made before or after Disney acquired Pixar and Blue Sky. (Pixar and Blue sky both remain as separate production units within Disney. There have been no WDAS/Pixar/Blue Sky co-productions as of 2020; if there is one, its inclusion in the list will have to be determined then.)
- Marvel films, whether made before or after Disney acquired Marvel. The only exception to this is Big Hero 6, which has already been added to the list and was produced by WDAS.
- Any other puppet films, even if produced by Disney.
- Any animated films that have often been mistaken to have been made by Disney, but are not: Anastasia(produced by Fox Animation Studios & distributed by 20th Century Fox, now owned by Disney), Quest for Camelot or The Iron Giant(both produced by Warner Bros. Feature Animation & distributed by Warner Bros.), etc.
- The Tigger Movie, Piglet's Big Movie and Pooh's Heffalump Movie, produced by Disneytoon Studios.
- All sequels, with the exception of The Three Caballeros, The Parent Trap 2, The Rescuers Down Under, Fantasia 2000, Winnie the Pooh Ralph Breaks the Internet and Frozen 2 (which were produced by WDAS and included in the canon) been produced by either Walt Disney Television Animation or Disneytoon Studios. All except for the six WDAS-produced sequels, Return to Neverland and The Jungle Book 2 were released direct-to-video. Disneytoon productions are listed in a separate section below.
- Live action Disney films that include animated bits or sequences (even if produced by WDAS), such as Song of the South, Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Pete's Dragon, Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Enchanted. Those are listed below in another section. However, Fantasia, Saludos Amigos, The Three Caballeros, Make Mine Music, Fun and Fancy Free, Melody Time, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Fantasia 2000, Chicken Little, Winnie the Pooh, and Dinosaur all have live-action settings, characters, and animated characters that are (sometimes) officially included in the canon.
- Films distributed, but not produced by Disney, such as The Wild.
- Films distributed, but produced by Studio Ghibli, such as Ponyo, Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle. Those are listed below in other sections.
The following is a list of the animated films that were either entirely produced in-house by Walt Disney Productionsprior to 1986, or were produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios, formerly known as Walt Disney Feature Animation, after 1986.
