Woody Woodpecker (1996 film)

Woody Woodpecker (also known as Steven Spielberg Presents: Woody Woodpecker) is a 1995 American traditionally animated musical adventure comedy film produced by Steven Spelberg's Amblimation studio, directed by Simon Wells, and released by Universal Pictures. It was released on November 22, 1995, coinciding with the namesake character's 55th anniversary. However, the film was only a moderate success at the box office, earning $31 million at the box office, largely due to competition with the much more successful ''Toy Story. This makes it the second-to-last film to be produced by Amblimation (the studio's final film, Balto, ''would follow one month later). Despite its underperformance at the box office, its strong sales on home video spawned a television series spinoff titled The New Woody Woodpecker Show which debuted on Fox Kids four years after the film debuted in theaters - though it was made without Spielberg's involvement - and uses the same character designs and most of the same voice cast.
