Morgan Creek Entertainment: Difference between revisions

===Background===

'''Morgan Creek Entertainment''' (formerly known as Morgan Creek Productions) is a production company founded by former auto import worker James G. Robinson in 1987. The name of the company comes from the 1944 movie ''The Miracle of '''Morgan'''<nowiki/>'s '''Creek'''''. Some of its most successful films include the ''Ace Ventura'' films and the ''Young Guns'' films. Its films were distributed (at least in North America and the British Isles) by [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]] from 1988-1990 (however, ''Renegades'' and ''Coup De Ville'' were from [[Universal Pictures|Universal]] and ''Major League'' was from [[Paramount Pictures|Paramount]], with international sales handled by J&M Entertainment), [[Warner Bros. Pictures|Warner Bros.]] from 1991-2004 and Universal from 2005-2011 (Warner distributed ''Ace Ventura, Jr.'' from 2009, select international rights to ''Dream House'', whilst Universal had US rights, and ''All Eyez on Me'' was distributed by [[Summit Entertainment]]). The rights were acquired by [[Revolution Studios]] in 2014, with sales handled by [[Miramax Films|Miramax]]. Video rights now rest with [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment]] in the United States and Canada. Currently, [[Sony Pictures Television]] handles the digital and television rights of Morgan Creek and Revolution titles worldwide, with few exceptions (for example, ''Young Guns'', its first film, is owned outright by [[Lionsgate Films|Lionsgate]] through its international distributor, [[Vestron Pictures|Vestron]] with TV rights held by Sony).
