Changes


 * Amblimation would be founded in February 1984, during the production of An American Tail.
 * An American Tail, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, The Land Before Time and MGM/United Artists' All Dogs Go to Heaven (the latter which would've been produced during Steven Spielberg's partnership with Don Bluth) would've been Amblimation's first four feature films.
 * Who Framed Roger Rabbit would be the studio's only live-action film.
 * The scene of Marvin Acme's funeral would make it into the final film.
 * It would have a 3-D re-release by Walt Disney Pictures in December 2006.
 * The Roger Rabbit shorts Tummy Trouble, Roller Coaster Rabbit and Trail Mix-Up and the Animaniacs short I'm Mad would've been co-produced by Amblimation.
 * In order to that, more additional Roger Rabbit shorts would be released.
 * Amblimation would not have its on-screen production logo until All Dogs Go to Heaven.
 * Don Bluth's animated short film Banjo the Woodpile Cat would be remade into a feature film.
 * The Nutcracker Prince would've been co-produced by Amblimation.
 * Don Bluth would've been involved as a creative consultant on An American Tail: Fievel Goes West and as a director (with Simon Wells) on The Land Before Time II: The Great Valley Adventure and The Swan Princess.
 * In addition, Sullivan Bluth Studios would've co-produced all three films.
 * The Land Before Time II: The Great Valley Adventure would've premiered in 1992 as a theatrical film (instead of 1994 as a direct-to-video film) and had a much different plot in the alternate reality version (alhough remaining its light-hearted tone and musical numbers).
 * Fievel's American Tails would have lasted for two additional seasons.
 * All Dogs Go to Heaven 2 (which would be produced by Amblimation) would've took place in 1940, a year after where the first film took place (rather than present day), and David, a boy from the real life version of the film, would be replaced by Anne-Marie from the first film.
 * The animation in this film is upgraded to include shadows and lighting.
 * The Swan Princess and Balto would perform much better at the box office.
 * The Little Rascals would've been an animated film rather than a live-action film (due to its cartoony nature).
 * Casper, Babe, Matilda, Babe: Pig in the City (which would be a direct-to-video film), Stuart Little, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, Stuart Little 2, The Cat in the Hat, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (which would perform much better at the box office), Into The Woods, The BFG, A Dog's Purpose, The House with a Clock in its Walls, and A Dog's Journey (which were all live-action films in real-life) would also be animated (despite different reasons).
 * Unlike the real life live-action film versions, The Little Rascals, Casper, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, The Cat in the Hat, The BFG, A Dog's Purpose, The House with a Clock in its Walls and  A Dog's Journey would've been more critically and commercially successful.
 * Some scenes in Casper, The Cat in the Hat, The BFG and The House with a Clock in its Walls are toned down in the alternate reality version.
 * In the 1995 Casper film, the characters are more identical to how they look like in The Spooktacular New Adventures of Casper.
 * As a result, the live-action prequel films Casper: A Spirited Beginning and Casper Meets Wendy would combine into one single stand-alone theatrical animated feature film, being a critical and commercial success: Wendy.
 * The Cat in the Hat would be recasted with Robin Williams and the Fish with Billy Crystal while Sean Hayes is still playing Mr. Humberfloob.
 * As a result, this would make him better and as much more funny as the Jim Carrey Grinch.
 * Sally would be the main character without Conrad.
 * The video game adaptation of The Cat in the Hat would, while remaining the same, be different than what it is in real life. For example, the game would've designed to be cartoony, Conrad wouldn't appear in the game, the game for the GameCube would be released, the beginning of the story would have rhyme, narrated by the Cat, and most of the Cat's lines would've been different as well.
 * Due to it being animated, the controversy surrounding A Dog's Purpose wouldn't happen.
 * The two cancelled Jurassic Park animated TV series Escape from Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park: Chaos Effect would've been produced.
 * Cats (the real life cancelled project that Amblimation had planned before shutting down) would've been produced and released in 1997.
 * This animated film would've came close in terms of matching the same critical and financial success that the Disney Renaissance films have made.
 * As a result, the 2019 film would never exist due to there already being one.
 * Starting with both The Producers and Cats, the Amblin Entertainment logo would appear at the start of the movie (except for The Prince of Egypt, The Road to El Dorado, Goldilocks and the Mirror Realm (which would have a logo variation for Universal Pictures), Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, and The Cat in the Hat, which would have the DreamWorks Pictures logo), while the Amblimation logo would appear at the end of the movie (after the credits).
 * The An American Tail, The Land Before Time and Balto direct-to-video sequels would've been produced by Amblimation.
 * The Prince of Egypt, The Road to El Dorado, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron and Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas would've been co-produced and co-animated by DreamWorks Animation.
 * Since our reality's Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron had animals not talking (even though Spirit does the narration), the AU version of the film would have animals talk.
 * Spirit Riding Free and Spirit: Untamed would not exist due to being mainly seen as a useless TV show and sequel created for the sake of profit, especially when the first film already had a perfect finale.
 * Animaniacs: Wakko's Wish would be released on The WB as a television film.
 * In addition, three more Animaniacs TV films would be released on The WB in 2001, 2003, and 2005.
 * There would be an animated film adaptation of Flat Stanley in 2004 and Magic Tree House in 2009.
 * Amblimation would've opened it's own digital production arm called Amblimation Digital in 2005.
 * Despite its strong ties with Universal Studios, Amblimation would also produce content with other studios, notably with Warner Bros., Paramount Pictures and Sony Pictures.
 * Also due to Spielberg's strong ties with Universal, the studio would be the exclusive distributor for DreamWorks live-action and animated movies since the studio's beginning.
 * Amblimation would've remastered its on-screen logo in 2008. It would later be reanimated in 2014 for the studio's 30th anniversary.
 * While Fievel Mousekewitz from An American Tail would be the studio's mascot during 1989 and the 1990s, he would be later accompanied by Tanya and Tiger in 2008, and joined by Itchy Itchiford from All Dogs Go to Heaven in 2014 and Roger Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit in 2016.
 * The Swan Princess franchise, Hoodwinked!, its 2011 sequel Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs. Evil, Horton Hears a Who!, 3 Pigs and a Baby (under the name The Three Little Pigs), the Kung Fu Panda films and the How to Train Your Dragon films, The Little Engine that Could, Rise of the Guardians, Trolls, its 2020 sequel Trolls World Tour, Smurfs: The Lost Village and UglyDolls would've been fully produced by this studio.
 * The Swan Princess (1994) would still be directed by Richard Rich, but with Simon Wells and Don Bluth co-directing it and Sullivan Bluth Studios co-producing and co-animating the film while all sequels would be heavily changed into a 1999-2002 well-received traditionally-animated TV series and The Swan Princess: Christmas would've been a 2004 traditionally-animated TV special instead of a 2012 computer animated direct-to-video film without Rich's involvement.
 * The only exceptions are The Swan Princess II: Escape from Castle Mountain and The Swan Princess III: The Mystery of the Enchanted Treasure, which would still exist as direct-to-video sequels that are not being directed by Richard Rich but instead by real directors of Amblimation direct-to-video sequels.
 * 3 Pigs and a Baby/The Three Little Pigs would be released as a theatrical film, while Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs. Evil would be a direct-to-video film.
 * The Little Engine that Could would combine elements from both the 1991 and 2011 direct-to-video films.
 * The live-action Smurfs films wouldn't exist since Sony Pictures doesn't own the rights to The Smurfs, especially due to Sony Pictures Animation's refusal of making live-action films as a way to focus exclusively on animated content.
 * Due to that, the studio would not be involved in the Goosebumps films.
 * However, the only character is Gutsy Smurf due to mainly seen as a good and interesting new Smurf character, and he would make an appearance in the 2021 Smurfs TV series.
 * Also, The Smurfs: A Christmas Carol and The Smurfs: The Legend of Smurfy Hollow (retitled The Smurfs: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow) would have been produced by Amblimation as television specials produced in 2021 as part of the Smurfs TV series instead of Sony Pictures Animation as direct-to-video short films produced between 2011 and 2013, and would be fully animated, not overusing the "Smurf" word at all.
 * Rise of the Guardians would be released in December, have a much better marketing campaign and would perform well at the box office, giving Amblimation an opportunity for a sequel that would release in 2018.
 * The sequel to Rise of the Guardians will take place several months after the first film.
 * Unlike the real life version, UglyDolls would've been more critically and commercially successful (although not successful enough to be followed by a sequel).
 * The Magic Roundabout (2005) would've been Americanized by Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment instead of The Weinstein Company, with the original script being kept, but changing the British words to American words, and the film's title to The Magic Carousel, being a critical and commercial success.
 * All fart jokes or pop culture references would be toned down in this AU.
 * The American cast would be like this: Robin Williams as Dougal, Jon Lovitz as Brian, Billy West as Flappy, Ian McKellen as Zebedee, Alyson Stoner as Florence, Mona Marshall as Ermintrude, Mark Hamill as Zeebad, and John DiMaggio as Soldier Sam.
 * Universal Studios would have handled the film adaptation of Peter Rabbit instead of Sony Pictures in order to make it fully animated, have a better storyline in order to follow the original Beatrix Potter story, and avoid its negative reception, even similar to Disney's The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.
 * Green Eggs and Ham would be produced by Amblimation as an theatrical feature film instead of being produced by Warner Bros. Animation as a TV series, being a critical and commercial success.
 * The Mitchells vs. the Machines would've been co-produced by Amblimation as Sony Pictures Animation's first fully traditionally-animated film.
 * Due to the fact that he is a child, Aaron would probably be voiced by a voice actress instead of Mike Rianda.
 * With the exceptions of Hoodwinked!, The Magic Carousel, Monster House, Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs. Evil, the How to Train Your Dragon films, The Adventures of Tintin, UglyDolls and Me and My Shadow (which uses both traditional and computer animation), all of Amblimation's films are done in traditional animation.
 * The 25 Years DreamWorks Animation logo from Trolls World Tour would split into two logos: the 40 Years Amblin Entertainment logo and our AU version of the 25 Years DreamWorks Animation logo for Me and My Shadow.
 * The 25 Years DreamWorks Animation logo would remove the montage of clips from the Kung Fu Panda, How to Train Your Dragon and Trolls films and Rise of the Guardians, would have a montage of clips from The Cat in the Hat, and would replace Diamond Guy from the Trolls franchise with Puss in Boots from the Shrek franchise.
 * In the 40 Years Amblin Entertainment logo, we see a montage of clips from E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, Gremlins, Gremlins 2: A New Batch, the Back to the Future trilogy, The Goonies, the Jurassic Park/Jurassic World and Men in Black films, and Ready Player One, as well as all Amblimation films from An American Tail to The Mitchells vs. the Machines and episode clips from Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, Freakazoid! and Pinky and the Brain zooming out and playing simultaneously. Then, Petrie, the flyer from The Land Before Time franchise, pops up as he peels the mosaic of clips away like a book page, revealing a white background. Petrie then flies over the screen, with his wing covering up the screen, transitioning into the Amblin Entertainment logo on a black background. The words "CELEBRATING 40 YEARS" and "1981-2021", with the 0 in the "40" being replaced with the silhouette of E.T. riding in the basket of Elliott's bicycle flying in front of the moon, from E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. The Amblin Entertainment fanfare plays over this logo.
 * This would be used for The Tales of Peter Rabbit, Green Eggs and Ham: The Second Serving, Finch, West Side Story, The Bad Guys, and Jurassic World: Dominion.
 * Amblimation would have its own satellite studios in London, England (established in 1986), Los Angeles, California (established in 1993) and in the Universal Studios theme parks.
 * Some of the Amblimation staff would work on various projects outside of the studio.
 * Amblimation would've provided additional pre-production for The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie, The Tale of Despereaux and all of Illumination Entertainment films, as well as some of DreamWorks Animation films (2019-present).
 * Since 2017, NBCUniversal would own four animation studios: Universal Animation Studios and Amblimation through its stake on Amblin Partners for traditional animation and DreamWorks Animation (coincidentally also co-founded by Steven Spielberg) and Illumination Entertainment for computer animation.
 * As a result, NBCUniversal owns the third largest animated catalogue in the United States, only behind Disney and Warner Bros.
