MTV Films was founded in 1996 to produce films based on MTV programs such as ''Beavis and Butt-Head Do America'', the ''Jackass'' film series, and ''Æon Flux'' (2005). They also produce other adaptations and original productions, such as ''Napoleon Dynamite'' and ''The Longest Yard'' (2005). Their first movie, ''Joe's Apartment'' (distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures under Geffen Pictures), received negative reviews and underperformed at the box-office, despite MTV's heavy promotion. However, their following movie, ''Beavis and Butt-Head Do America'' (which was the first MTV film to be distributed by Paramount Pictures, since MTV's owner, Viacom, bought the studio) was a critical and commercial success, which led MTV Films to make more movies. On August 21, 2006, Nickelodeon Movies and MTV Films became full labels of the Paramount Motion Pictures Group. It has currently produced 40 films, with four direct-to-video titles. | MTV Films was founded in 1996 to produce films based on MTV programs such as ''Beavis and Butt-Head Do America'', the ''Jackass'' film series, and ''Æon Flux'' (2005).
