Released Films
Release date listed is the first public theatrical screening of the completed film. This may mean that the dates listed here may not be representative of when the film came out in your resident country, or when it was widely released in the United States.
Computer-animated films typically have two production companies: an animation studio and a distribution company. For example, Pixar creates and produces their features and Walt Disney Pictures distributes them. There are also often other production companies that are involved in other aspects of the film. In this list, the main animation studio(s) will be listed first, sometimes followed by the main distribution company in italics.
The county or countries listed reflects the place or places where the production companies for each title are based. This means that the countries listed for a film might not reflect the location where the film was shot or the countries where the film received a theatrical release. If a title is a multi-country production, the country listed first corresponds with the production company that had the most significant role in the film's creation.

Famous quotes containing the words released and/or films:
“Women are to be lifted up to a physical equality with man by placing upon their shoulders equal burdens of labor, equal responsibilities of state-craft; they are to be brought down from their altruistic heights by being released from all obligations of purity, loyalty, self-sacrifice, and made free of the world of passion and self-indulgence, after the model set them by men of low and materialistic ideals.”
—Caroline Fairfield Corbin (b. c. 1835?)
“Television does not dominate or insist, as movies do. It is not sensational, but taken for granted. Insistence would destroy it, for its message is so dire that it relies on being the background drone that counters silence. For most of us, it is something turned on and off as we would the light. It is a service, not a luxury or a thing of choice.”
—David Thomson, U.S. film historian. America in the Dark: The Impact of Hollywood Films on American Culture, ch. 8, William Morrow (1977)
