What if HKO was founded in 1934?/HKO Animation Studios in 1985?/Adventures

Adventures is a 1996 American animated fantasy adventure film produced by Don Bluth Entertainment, H Studios and HKO Animation Studios and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures under Warner Bros. Family Entertainment. The first feature film from H Studios, it was co-written and directed by Hiro K.O. and co-written by Alberto Canetto, Joshy Massey and Don Bluth, and stars the voices of TBA. The film follows TBA.

Development of Adventures, initially titled Quest, began after H Studios was established in 1986, when Hiro conceived its original plot. The film later went into production by April 1994, alongside a new title under its current name. It was the first animated feature to be produced by H Studios, which was formed by artists who had worked for the recently disbanded Hiro K.O. Studios led by Hiro, as well as Walt Disney Feature Animation and Amblimation. The animation of the film, which was mostly done at HKO Animation Studios, combines traditional animation and computer-generated imagery. The film's score was composed by Danny Elfman.

Adventures premiered in Los Angeles on December 13, 1996, and was released in the United States on December 20, 1996. It received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its animation, story, performances, and score, and earned over $324 million worldwide on its $44 million budget, making it the fifth highest-grossing film of 1997, the highest-grossing animated film of the year, and the highest-grossing non-Disney animated film at the time. It received nominations for several awards, including for Best Original Song ("TBA") and Best Original Musical or Comedy Score at the 70th Academy Awards. The film was re-released in 3D on March 28, 2014. The success of Adventures later spawned an expanded franchise, with three direct-to-video follow-ups, a television series, video games, merchandise, and other media. A live-action remake was originally announced for a 2020 release, but was shelved indefinitely.
