Walt Disney Pictures

 * Owned by The Walt Disney Company, itself owned by Alphabet (which was formed in 2015 when Disney and Google merged).
 * Since Sony bought ABC (as Japan is a US protectorate ITTL), Disney instead starts its own broadcast network: TDN, The Disney Network: in 1989. (Idea from TimzUneeverse)
 * Since Disney never got its hands on TCF, that means Touchstone still has a reason to exist.

20th Century Fox

 * Owned by TwenCen Media, which was formed in 2022 when FOX Entertainment (the company in charge of the FOX TV network) merged with New 20th Century Fox (the company in charge of the TCF film studio); both of these were formed after the self-regulatory body of the media industry, the ILMME (Intercompany League of Mass Media and Entertainment), blocked Google/Disney from buying much of 21st Century Fox's assets in 2017 (in the end, all Disney got was the FX cable networks).

Warner Bros. Pictures

 * Owned by Kapuso Group, which was formed in late 2022 when Filipino media company GMA took control of the struggling Warner Bros Discovery.
 * Went into broadcasting much earlier with WBN (which exists instead of The WB/The CW ITTL).

Universal Pictures

 * Still owned by Comcast.
 * When the NBC-Universal merger happened, that also brought along an alternate version of DreamWorks (which was founded MUCH earlier, never separated its animation and live-action sides, and used to be owned by General Electric).

Paramount Pictures

 * Owned by Verizon, which bought out CBS-Paramount in 2012, around the same time Comcast bought NBCU.
 * CBS-Paramount itself was formed in 2002 when National Amusements (a movie theatre chain that had acquired Westinghouse Electric's media assets, including CBS, in 1999) and Gulf+Western (which survived MUCH longer ITTL, and acquired Warner-Amex Cable instead of Viacom, which is VERY different ITTL) merged.
