List of Disney feature-length home entertainment releases
(Redirected from List of Disney direct-to-video films)
This is a list of feature-length films released by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment for home entertainment. Some of the films were produced directly to home theater by Disney without a theatrical run, while some of them received a theatrical run in Europe. Others were originally produced by another company and released for a theatrical run, but later distributed on home video by Disney.
Produced and distributed by Disney[edit]
Animated films[edit]
The following is a list of films that were released straight to home video and thus did not have a theatrical release. They were either produced by Walt Disney Pictures, Disney Television Animation, and/or Disneytoon Studios, and the majority are sequels or spin-offs of Walt Disney Animation Studios films (not being part of the Disney Animated Canon[1]). Most of the sequels are notorious for their negative reception.
