Great Oaks Entertainment was a short-lived production company that was founded in 1995 as a merger between John Hughes's [[Hughes Entertainment]] and Ricardo Mestres Productions. It was based at Disney Studios in Los Angeles. It only produced three films, ''Jack'' (from Hollywood Pictures) and the remakes of ''101 Dalmatians'' and ''Flubber'', both of which belonged to the Disney library. All three of the films from the studio received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics but were box-office successes.
