Forum:Cartoon Network Studios on Disney+

Two days ago, on April 2, 2021, Disney+ added a bunch of vintage Star Wars stuff to their service, such as The Story of the Faithful Wookiee, Caravan of Courage, Ewoks: The Battle for Endor, and the 2-D animated Micro-series of Star Wars: Clone Wars, created by Genndy Tartakovsky. However, something's not right with the last one..... Disney+ has actually kept in the Cartoon Network Studios logo on their prints of Star Wars: Clone Wars. Well I guess it makes sense for it to be there since CN Studios actually retains the rights to said series. This isn't the first time they showed a non-Disney company logo on their service, though. First off, we had the Paramount logo on their MCU-produced films (such as Iron Man 1 & 2, Thor, and Captain America: The First Avenger). Ever since Disney bought the rights to said films (except The Incredible Hulk because the rights are owned by Universal), they kept in Paramount's logo. (Paramount, however, only got a studio credit on The Avengers and Iron Man 3, even though Disney distributed those). Second of all, they showed the Columbia TriStar Television logo at the end of the television film Annie (1999). It only makes sense since that film was actually a joint venture between them and Disney. And last, but not least, this isn't really getting much attention if you ask, but they also kept in the MGM logo on Willow. However the 2001 DVD releases of the film from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment removed any evidence of MGM and went directly to the Lucasfilm Ltd. logo but it would however be restored on the 2013 Fox and 2019 Disney Blu-ray releases and on Disney+ streaming. I wouldn't really count Warner Bros. Television and CBS Studios on here though since Disney+ made two shows with both companies for their service respectively. This isn't the first time Disney's actually done using Cartoon Network stuff before, well in The Kid (2000) with Bruce Willis there's a scene with Ed, Edd n Eddy playing on the TV. I apologise if it's long guys, but yeah, that concludes my topic. |

For Star Wars Ewoks, both seasons use the 1992 20th Television logo, which again, plastered the 1981 TCFTV logo. |

Hmmmm, that's interesting. Didn't know about that. |

At the time, 20th Century Fox Television owned distribution rights for both Droids, and Ewoks. However, 20th Television was formed in 1989 as an distribution and syndication subsidiary of TCFTV. If Disney+ releases Star Wars: Droids, then it will be the same as Ewoks when it comes to distribution. Despite restoration, Disney did not add in their Disney Media Distribution logo, or Disney Platform Distribution logo at the end of Ewoks. |

Disney+ has a show called Diary of a Future President, which is a CBS production. |

And they have National Geographic's The Right Stuff, which is an Warner Bros production. |

Does Cartoon Network actually own the Clone Wars shorts or was it a case where Lucasfilm contracted CN to do the animation? |

Star Wars: Droids was released, and it was fully restored. However, no 20th Television or 20th Century Fox Television logo in sight. |

But wait! Cartoon Network Studios is owned by Warner Bros., and Disney+ is owned by Disney. |
