==History==
In 1993, Nickelodeon set a deal with 20th Century Fox to make movies based on Doug, The Ren & Stimpy Show and Rugrats. However, none of the films would be made through the Fox deal due to the 1994 acquisition of Paramount Pictures by Viacom. The proposed Doug film would not be made due to the 1996 sale of the show's producing studio to Disney and that show's move to ABC, while creative differences with Ren & Stimpy creator John Kricfalusi and an inability to market the property in a family-friendly manner scuttled that film. (Doug would eventually have its own feature film, Doug's 1st Movie, come to the big screen through Disney in 1999.)

==Trivia==
*Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is the studio's highest-grossing film.
**The Adventures of Tintin is the studio's highest-grossing animated film.
**The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water is the studio's highest grossing film based on a Nicktoon.
*The Last Airbender is not only the studio's most expensive film, having a budget of $150 million, but also ties with Yours, Mine & Ours for the studio's lowest-rated films according to Rotten Tomatoes, both with a 6% rating.
*While most of their films are rated G and PG, Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, Fun Size, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows are the only films from the studio to receive a PG-13 rating, with the second being the first to be theatrically released in the United States.
*The only film that has no involvement with Paramount is Hotel for Dogs, which was released by DreamWorks Pictures. However, the film was distributed through Paramount.
*To date, Snow Day, Clockstoppers, Yours, Mine and Ours, Nacho Libre and Imagine That have not yet been broadcast on any of the Nickelodeon TV networks.
*The Loud House Movie, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie, Fantasy Football, the Snow Day remake, Zoey 102, The Casagrandes Movie, No Time to Spy: A Loud House Movie, and Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie are currently the only Nickelodeon Movies films that do not have physical video releases, most likely because they are Netflix and Paramount+ original movies.
*The current Nickelodeon Movies logo (since 2020) used in Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank, Blue's Big City Adventure, Baby Shark's Big Movie! and other movies didn't use SpongeBob's grunts for some reason.
