What if Amblimation never closed down?

Amblimation was an American short-lived animation production company owned by Amblin Entertainment that was founded in 1989 and shut down shortly after the foundation of DreamWorks Pictures in 1997. But what if it never closed down? Here's what might have happened.

Changes

 * The Cats movie would have never been cancelled.
 * As a result, the 2019 film would never exist.
 * The studio would produce exclusively traditional animated features, with The Adventures of Tintin being its only CGI film.
 * Fievel's American Tails would have lasted for two additional seasons.
 * All of The Land Before Time sequels would be released by Amblimation.
 * The same with Balto.
 * Despite its strong ties with Universal Studios, Amblimation would also produce content with other studios, notably with Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures.
 * [take advantage of Spielberg's ties with the Universal and make it the exclusive distributor for DreamWorks live-action and animated movies since the beginning before acquiring the animated unit]
 * 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 CGI animation.
 * As a result, NBCUniversal owns the third largest animated catalogue in the United States, only behind Disney and Warner Bros.
