Ah, the Disney Animated Canon. Such wonderful movies to be found in it: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, The Swan Princess...
Wait, what do you mean that last one doesn't belong? It's not Disney? Don't be ridiculous, only Disney could produce animation of that quality!
Sadly, many people in Real Life believe that, if it's a quality animated feature film, it was made by Disney. This is possibly a side effect of the Animation Age Ghetto, as people are led to believe that not only are all cartoons for kids, but they're all made by the same kid-friendly company. Who (aside from fans of animation) wants to tell these people that there's more than one animation studio out there? Small Reference Pools might play a role here, as well. Some people go so far as to believe that Disney invented animation, which isn't true either: Walt was still in junior high school when Gertie the Dinosaur was released (though he did release the first feature-length hand-drawn cartoon, namely Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs).
Remember, though, that Disney is the market leader in animated movies, and so it's understandable that rival animation studios follow trends set by the Disney Animated Canon (including Disneyfication). One critical reason is Don Bluth, responsible for taking that style with him when he left Disney, using it in his films with other studios and making that line more blurred if you're not paying closer attention than looking and assuming. Disney also releases films not made by a Disney animation studio, such as The Brave Little Toaster, and handles international distribution of some bigger-name foreign animators, most notably the works of Studio Ghibli (prior to GKids buying out the distribution rights to the majority of the latter's backlog).
Though it seems easy to distinguish when doing the bare minimum of research, Disney uses Vanity Plates on its work, and so do the other big-name animation studios. However, this can be muddied somewhat when studios strike up unanticipated strange licensing agreements - for example, Disney having the broadcast rights for Thomas & Friends in Asia, and between 2009 and 2016, somehow also ended up with the distribution and broadcast rights for DreamWorks movies in certain regions, creating a very bizarre scenario where Shrek and Over the Hedge were screened on Disney Channel Asia (and in the case of Japan, a double whammy where The Penguins of Madagascar screened on Disney Channel Japan because they no longer have a Nickelodeon feed in the country, in addition to DreamWorks' said agreement with Disney).
Since Disney's most famous movies are traditionally animated films, this usually applies to traditionally animated movies. On the CGI front, DreamWorks has become a big enough name in its own right that their films rarely get mistaken for Pixar's anymore. The other guys (such as Blue Sky Studios, Illumination Entertainment or Sony Pictures Animation)... not so much. If it shares DreamWorks' tendency towards subversive or referential humor, chances are it'll get mistaken for one of their films. So a sub-trope of this could be "All CG Animation is Pixar or DreamWorks".
As being an animation fan as an adult becomes less stigmatised, this trope is beginning to die off. This is also due to many films such as The Secret of NIMH and The Iron Giant gaining cult followings and being recognized as some of the best animated films, largely even considered contenders to Disney in quality. However, because of Don Bluth becoming a household name in the animation community, it's still common for people to believe that all non-Disney 2D-animated films were made by him instead. Just make sure not to make this mistake around animation fans. At the very least, you'll get eye-rolls from them.
Subtrope of Wrongfully Attributed. Compare/Contrast All Anime Is Naughty Tentacles and Disney Owns This Trope. Misattributed Song is the variant of this trope for music. When official sources mix up the studios, it's usually because the writer pulled a Cowboy BeBop at His Computer.
Not to be confused with Disneyesque or Disneyfication. Of course, sometimes the confusion goes the other way and a film really is by Disney, but it's hard to convince people of this because it's so "un-Disneylike" (Pretty Woman or Pulp Fiction, among many, many others).
Animated mockbusters often play on this trope deliberately to make unwary customers think their cheap knockoff is the original.

Disney Channel airs The Penguins of Madagascar in Japan because they no longer have a dedicated Nickelodeon feed. Viacom and DreamWorks worked out a deal with Disney where Disney would air the show in that one country only. Understandably, tourists who've seen the Japanese merchandise are perplexed by the presence of the Disney Channel logo.

In a similar vein to the "imported show airing on Disney Channel" example, many people believe that PAW Patrol was created by Nickelodeon, with merchandise even using the channel's name. In a similar manner to Rolie Polie Ollie, Nick only distributes it, as it was originally made for Canadian network TV Ontario.
The same thing tends to happen with other Nick Jr. imports as well, including Little Bear, Franklin, and Bob the Buildernote  Until it moved to PBS in 2005. The first two were not Nick Jr. originals and were actually Canadian, with the first being a CBC show, the second being a Family Channel show, (not to be confused with the United States Family Channel) and the last show being produced by The BBC with the voices redubbed to American English.
On the topic of Franklin and Little Bear, many people believe that these two shows aired on PBS Kids in the United States when they actually were broadcast on Nick Jr.

Not even the Disney Parks are safe from this. For guests who are still in diapers, a store at the Disneyland hotel sells Huggies diapers and wipes (justified, since they have Disney characters on them) and Care Bears baby wipes. This might seem nice, until you know that Care Bears isn't a Disney property, even though it aired on Disney Channel from the mid-1980s up through the mid-1990s, and it also appeared on Toon Disney.

During the Perestroika era, many pieces of foreign media were being imported over to the USSR. The most well-known of these were Disney features, and as a result, just about any non-Disney cartoon such as 'Tom and Jerry', 'Looney Tunes', and even 'The Smurfs (1981)' were labelled as Disney by Soviet people.

Disney Sing-Along Songs potentially invoked this trope on a Christmas-themed video. Apparently, they couldn't find any fitting Disney clips for the "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" segment, so instead they used public domain footage from Max Fleischer's Animated Adaptation. This might be the result of the fact that Disney did distribute Fleischer cartoons on home video in the 1980s. Disney must have taken advantage of the fact the cartoons were public domain and released them for their own profit. This becomes especially amusing if you can recall that Walt Disney and the Fleischer Brothers considered themselves rivals during The Golden Age of Animation.

The Nutcracker Prince. Fans of this movie mistook most of the animation (save for the flashback sequences) as similar to the Disney era. It doesn't help that there's also a Disney Villain Death within this movie.

This came in full circle and bit Disney in the behind, because now when Disney makes CG movies independently of Pixar, people still assume it was Pixar. Doesn't help that the new renaissance of the Disney Animated Canon that started with Tangled was kicked off after well known Pixar veteran John Lasseter became CCO of Disney's animation studios.
Chicken Little was the first to fall under this as it was the first non-Pixar computer animated film from them.
Paperman fell under this hard when the award-winning short was uploaded to YouTube for a limited time, with several viewers insisting only Pixar could have produced the short. Many attempted to correct this mistake and were widely ignored.
Inner Workings, because of the stylised artstyle, the Inside Out-esque premise, and the fact that the main character looks like Carl, is frequently mistaken for Pixar's work.
Strange World has very "chunky," bulbous character designs that make it look similar to Soul, Luca, and Turning Red, resulting in it being mistaken for a Pixar movie. Strange World was actually made by Walt Disney Animation Studios.

Underdog is commonly misattributed to Jay Ward, due to the animation being outsourced to Gamma Productions (a Mexican studio that animated most of Jay Ward's cartoons). The series was actually produced by Total Television.

A surprisingly large number of people believe Totally Spies! to be either an American or at the very least Canadian invention, when in fact the series is French. This is largely due to the exceptional English dub and the fact the series is set in Beverly Hills, which isn't the first thing that comes to most people's minds when they hear the phrase "French cartoon."

Magic Adventures of Mumfie, Thomas' sister show, is not alone in this trope either. However, it isn't surprising as the art style of the movie Mumfie's Quest can easily be mistaken for Disney's, as well as the presence of multiple musical numbers. Britt Allcroft adapted the movie from Katharine Tozer's books, and Phoenix Animation Studios animated it. However, some episodes of the TV series following the episodes the movie was made from avert this trope when it's animated by D'Ocon, as they look different.
This website calls the show "Walt Disney at its' [sic] finest!" Oddly enough, D'Ocon animated the episodes on this particular VHS tape.
Similar to its sister show, the Italian Disney Channel played Mumfie in the early 2000's on Playhouse Disney, right before Bear in the Big Blue House.
It also doesn't help that Pinkey looks very similar to Hen Wen, but with wings. In fact, a few people who want to remember this movie often mistake it for The Black Cauldron due to this.

One editor on the Disney Wiki reckoned that all cameos in Wreck-It Ralph movie are either Disney or Nintendo. They even gave among the "Nintendo" examples, Pac-Man and Dig Dug — both of which are Bandai Namco Entertainment. This edit also ignored the Qix (Taito) and Q*bert (Gottleib), amongst other decidedly not-Nintendo examples. Even better is the fact that Sonic and Dr. Eggman are from a series made by a former competitor of Nintendo's and never appeared on a Nintendo console until the early '00s.

Just as all animation is Disney, All British Horror Is Hammer Horror. Hammer's main rival Amicus Productions in particular gets this a lot. That both studio shared some actors and actresses such as Ingrid Pitt didn't help.
Similarly, with comedies, all British comedies made in the 1950s are Ealing Studios. Particularly the films of Alec Guinness not made there like Father Brown, but also many of the films of Alastair Sim, who only made one true Ealing Comedy - Hue and Cry, but appeared in many films in the same vein from Launder and Gilliat. Perhaps also owes to the fact that The Ladykillers (1955) was intended as a vehicle for Sim, and Guinness deliberately modelled his performance on Sim, to the point that a Mandela Effect has occurred, with people believing it a Sim movie.

Shrek:
This parody site claims that this movie, as well as Ice Age and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang are Disney films.
Since Disney signed a distribution agreement with DreamWorks in 2009, they've screened Shrek on The Disney Channel several times in some markets. Understandably, this has raised a lot of confusion for those who know the differences between DreamWorks, Disney and Pixar. The agreement expired in late 2016 though, and while DreamWorks did not renew it, their new parent company NBCUniversal would sign a contract that led to the films appearing on the U.S. feed.
In the book I Am Malala, Malala Yousafzai mentions at one point watching Disney movies while recovering from her injuries, specifically the first three Shrek films and "A Shark's Tale". Justified, as Pakistani have a very narrow perception of Western culture, including animation, thus any major film is perceived as "Disney". Additionally, Pakistan could very well be covered under Disney’s abovementioned deal with DreamWorks In Asia.
In this book about Latin dance, there is a reference to "2001 Disney Shrek film", in a topic about the presence of the Macarena in the cinema.

Aversion: With its 95% Rotten Tomatoes score, nobody would ever have (and for that matter, has ever) mistaken Yellow Submarine as being a Disney product. King Features produced it and TVC London animated it. The success of Submarine prompted Disney to re-release Fantasia in early 1969 as "The ultimate sight and sound experience." Disney did have plans to make a motion-capture redeux of Submarine in 2012 with Robert Zemeckis directing it, but Disney yanked it after the Zemeckis-produced Mars Needs Moms tanked.

Thomas and the Magic Railroad:
One reviewer was under the impression that Thomas had been produced by Disney. Then again, the review itself was poking fun at fundamentalist Christians who think all movies are the work of the devil.
Muddying the issue is that the movie actually aired on Playhouse Disney regularly in Asian markets. Heck, it seems that HiT Entertainment had an alliance with Disney in Asia (Barney & Friends actually aired on Playhouse Disney in the region) up until when they launched their own channel, JimJam.
Japanese confectionery Furuta used to call Thomas a Disney show on one of its products from the show, but when they lost the Disney license, the mistake was fixed.

Max and Ruby, which airs on Nick Jr. in the US and Treehouse TV in Canada, is often mistaken for a PBS Kids show because the company who made it, Nelvana, has made several shows for the block including The Berenstain Bears and Timothy Goes to School, with the latter being also based on a Rosemary Wells book. It doesn't help matters that in the mid-2000's, Play Along Toys had a preschool toyline called Child Guidance, which featured merchandise of Max and Ruby alongside several PBS Kids shows along with The Wiggles and Miffy.

The story exists in several variant forms. In some versions, Kelly wanted to use Donald Duck (in keeping with the film's nautical theme) rather than Mickey; in one version, Kelly's producers at MGM were willing, until William Hanna and Joseph Barbera heard about it and persuaded them to use Jerry; in another version, Walt Disney refused to loan Mickey out; in still another (thought to be the most likely) version, Walt was willing, but his brother Roy pointed out that their studio was in debt at the time and could not afford "to be making cartoons for other people."

The Wind in the Willows (1996) is mistaken as a Disney film because Disney distributed the film in the U.S. and also because it was released on home video as "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride", a name shared by a particularly famous Disneyland ride that was based off of their adaptation of the story.

World Masterpiece Theater never adapted Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, but that doesn't prevent many people from thinking Huckleberry no B�ken (1976) and Huckleberry Finn Monogatari (1994) were part of it. Doesn't help that those were made in the same timeframe as World Masterpiece Theater series and had some similar animation (the main character looks markedly different compared to his counterpart in WMT's version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, that said).

Mother Goose Rock 'n' Rhyme is often mistaken for a Disney movie because it frequently aired on the Disney Channel in the late 1980s to early 1990s, and there's even been requests for the film to be added to Disney+. However, despite airing on their channel, the rights are not owned by Disney, as the film was made by Hi-Tops Video (the kids arm of Media Home Entertainment), known for distributing VHS tapes of the Peanuts specials, Pee-wee's Playhouse, Baby Songs, Barbie and the Rockers: Out of This World, and The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin. The film would later be owned by Lyrick Studios, who distributed Barney & Friends and VeggieTales.

Despicable Me is occasionally confused for a Disney film series, as the Disney Channel once had a habit of playing the first film a couple of times each month.
A video depicts a family making homemade Minion-themed Twinkies. The video refers to the movie as a Disney movie, when it’s really an Illumination film.

Exploited in a rather famous experiment on false memories: People were shown fake ads for Disneyland that included Bugs Bunny (who belongs at Six Flags), and they ended up telling the researchers that they'd seen Bugs Bunny when they went to Disneyland as children. (Though they may have been confusing him with Roger Rabbit, who has a ride at Disneyland's Toon Town. Not helping matters is that Roger Rabbit actually was a huge cross-company collaboration project between Disney and WB which resulted in Bugs Bunny and the rest of the Looney Tunes characters appearing in the movie, which already caused tons of confusion in it's time).

Advertising for the film Once Upon a Forest seemed to hope that audiences would mistake it for a Don Bluth film by saying it was "From the creator of An American Tail" (the film was produced by David Kirschner, who came up with the concept of the latter film). It fooled many, but didn't do much to help its box office take. It being 1993, well after Bluth's fall from grace, it was perhaps too late for this ploy to work anyway.
Some people are unaware that Don Bluth had no involvement in Fievel Goes West.
Balto and We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story are also often mistaken for Don Bluth films, in no small part for being Universal productions (which also distributed Bluth's more beloved works) and actual similarities in character design.
This site says The Swan Princess is a Don Bluth film.
The author of this fanart of The Nutcracker Prince thought this was a Don Bluth film.
Indeed, "All Non-Disney 2D Animation is Don Bluth" could be considered a subtrope.
The 2D animated films from A. Film, such as Help! I'm a Fish, are occasionally mistaken for Don Bluth pictures, since their character designs are pretty obviously inspired by his work.

One bootleg DVD set of Recess said it was from Nickelodeon. Recess is also a Disney show, once again inverting this trope.
Many people have also mistaken Recess to have been made by Klasky-Csupo. While Rugrats co-creator Paul Germain co-created the show with Rugrats writer Joe Ansolabehere, Klasky-Csupo itself had no part in making the show.

Occasionally you'll come across some naive person or group of people who have lumped The Wizard of Oz in with the Disney animated oeuvre. Nobody ever explicitly calls The Wizard of Oz a Disney film (it's well known that it was produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and that Warner Brothers currently owns the rights to it), but school plays doing a salute to Disney will often include scenes from Oz alongside the likes of Aladdin. They must think the kids are stupid ("It's got fanciful characters and musical numbers, so it must be Disney!"), or else they might genuinely consider Oz a Disney film in all but name. On the other hand, Disney did a storybook published in 1978 in book, vinyl and cassette formats, produce the sequel, Return to Oz, as well as the "unofficial" prequel, Oz the Great and Powerful, both of which are probably the root cause of this confusion. What may also add even more to the confusion is the fact that The Wizard of Oz was among the many films featured in The Great Movie Ride (a former attraction at Walt Disney World), which was allowed due to a licensing agreement between Disney and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer/Warner Bros. In 1954, Disney purchased the rights to thirteen Oz books.
A notable example of this was the commentary track for Ghostbusters (2016): after Jillian sings "Come out, come out, wherever you are..." to try and find Rowan, Paul Feig mentions that the joke cost several thousand dollars, because it was from "some Disney movie". Even Mr. Plinkett pointed out how clueless they were in his review of the movie as an example of how the director doesn't understand movies:

The "If Black People Owned Disney" videos are a big offender of this trope. Not only do they show clips of Despicable Me (an Illumination film), but one of them claims that SpongeBob SquarePants was owned by Disney, despite the fact that it airs on Nickelodeon. Another one shows clips from Barney & Friends, Sesame Street, and even some DreamWorks Animation movies (like Shrek), even though they weren't made by Disney. Either these people are clueless, or they generalize kids' stuff as "Disney" products

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is frequently mistaken to be Disney film because it's a 1960s fantasy musical that stars Dick Van Dyke, similar to Mary Poppins, and had songs written by The Sherman Brothers, who wrote many famous Disney songs such as "It's A Small World" and the Winnie the Pooh theme.
One TV station in Malaysia, TV3, actually aired Chitty Chitty Bang Bang as one of the films on their Wonderful World of Disney movie slot a few years back. note To be fair, United Artists was probably aiming for this trope on purpose, by getting Dick Van Dyke and The Sherman Brothers, fresh off Disney's production of Mary Poppins, involved. Word of God states they even tried to recruit Julie Andrews, but she turned them down.
The Goldo song "Boom Da Boom", which is about Disney characters, mentions Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
Behold, a clueless ride operator refits a Pooh kiddie ride with a music box that plays the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang theme.

In Latin America, The Fairly OddParents! is commonly believed to be made by Disney due to it airing on Jetix and Disney XD, although they didn't air anything beyond the first half of season 5. This is because of Nelvana holding the rights of those seasons (they still hold the rights as of today), as further seasons were aired by Nickelodeon in Latin American countries.

Warner Bros. tried to play this trope to its advantage during test screenings of Thumbelina. When they played the film with the Warner logo, audiences gave it a mediocre score. When they played it with the Disney logo, the scores were much higher. Bluth reported the same thing was employed by 20th Century Fox with Anastasia. With the Disney logo, some sequences even met with applause! And the marketing of Anastasia heavily played up the Disneyesque elements. Funnily enough, thanks to Disney's purchase of Fox, the film is now owned by Disney.

While The Sound of Music is owned by Disney as of March 2019, it was made by 20th Century Fox. A character in Addams Family Values saying "It's Disney" just before The Sound of Music comes on undoubtedly contributes to the confusion. Also, the association with Julie Andrews (of Mary Poppins fame) in a similar role, and just one year after Poppins no less, probably added to the confusion.
In addition to "The Sound of Music", the very same episode used "The Brady Bunch" theme from Paramount 1969-74 series and "Tomorrow" from "Annie" (either Broadway musical or 1982 Columbia Pictures film).

Inverted with the comic Blacksad - Guarnido, the illustrator, actually was a Disney animator, animating Hades in Hercules, Sabor in Tarzan, and Helga in Atlantis: The Lost Empire, among other work, but the only evidence of this is in the characters' facial expressions. It might be because Blacksad is a gritty, violent, sexual, political noir comic (populated entirely by anthropomorphic animals, no less) and going for an entirely Disneyfied look wouldn't fit.

Some people think that Sonic the Hedgehog is created by Nintendo, due to most of its games following a cartoony and colorful design akin to that of Nintendo, Sonic's status as one of the most famous video game characters (something that many Nintendo characters share), later games appearing on Nintendo consoles (the Wii U's eshop even had a dedicated section for Sonic games), and Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games. Sonic is created by Sega, which has plenty of M-rated games up its belt.

Warner Home Video released Thundarr the Barbarian: The Complete Series, a Ruby-Spears production, and mistakenly implied the series was made by Hanna-Barbera. Ruby Spears was founded by screenwriters Joe Ruby and Ken Spears, creators of ScoobyDoo. Thundarr had some characters designed by AlexToth, who had made the heroes of Hanna-Barbera, in addition, in 1981, Taft Broadcasting, the company that had bought Hanna-Barbera, also bought Ruby Spears.

It could probably be traced back to all of the Silly Symphonies clones that just about every animation studio was producing in the 1930's, to cash in on the success of Disney's shorts.

The same thing tends to happen with other Nick Jr. imports as well, including Little Bear, Franklin, and Bob the Buildernote  Until it moved to PBS in 2005. The first two were not Nick Jr. originals and were actually Canadian, with the first being a CBC show, the second being a Family Channel show, (not to be confused with the United States Family Channel) and the last show being produced by The BBC with the voices redubbed to American English.
On the topic of Franklin and Little Bear, many people believe that these two shows aired on PBS Kids in the United States when they actually were broadcast on Nick Jr.

Anime fans who were too young (or weren't even born) when Sailor Moon first aired in the USA often blame 4Kids instead of DiC, because they associate all obtrusive editing and censorship with the now-defunct company.
They'll furthermore use these shows to bash America in general, despite the facts that (1) American fans often led the charges against these shows and pushed hard for uncensored releases, and (2) Some censored anime – like the aforementioned Sailor Moon and Nelvana's Cardcaptors – were made by Canadians. It's also worth noting that edited versions like these have also been made outside North America; for example, Naruto's German TV editnote Later broadcasts are uncensored as well as anything made after 2000 by Venus Centre (Al-Zuhra) for the Arabic-language channel Spacetoon.

The Angry Birds Movie is often mistaken for a Sony Pictures Animation production since two of the studio's sister companies were both involved with the film (it was actually mainly produced by original Angry Birds creators Rovio Entertainment via their Rovio Animation division), and the humor and character designs are similar to those found in some of their other films. The sequel averts this thanks to Rovio and SPA jointly producing it. This also applies to Storks and Smallfoot (which were both produced by the Warner Animation Group) for three of the same reasons.

Many newcomers thought Animal Jam is created by the National Geographic Society, thanks to the game using to be under the brand. WildWorks created the game; they just had National Geographic to partner with them. This has died down after National Geographic ended their partnership in 2018 and thus the branding was removed.

In the book I Am Malala, Malala Yousafzai mentions at one point watching Disney movies while recovering from her injuries, specifically the first three Shrek films and "A Shark's Tale". Justified, as Pakistani have a very narrow perception of Western culture, including animation, thus any major film is perceived as "Disney". Additionally, Pakistan could very well be covered under Disney’s abovementioned deal with DreamWorks In Asia.

The Iron Giant is frequently misidentified as Disney, even on This Very Wiki. It was actually made by the Warner Bros. animation studio and directed by Brad Bird… who would soon after make films for Pixar.

The first question that shows up on the Google results for Sherlock Gnomes is "Is Sherlock Gnomes a Disney movie?" The film is distributed by Paramount, but it's understandable considering that the film it's a sequel to was distributed by Touchstone, a division of Disney.

2 Stupid Dogs is often mistaken for a Cartoon Network original series, no doubt because it shared some staff with some of the Hanna-Barbera-produced Cartoon Cartoons (namely Genndy Tartakovsky and Rob Renzetti) and reran on CN after it ended. However, Hanna-Barbera produced the show for TBS; at the time, Cartoon Network was merely a rerun farm for H-B's older series and Looney Tunes.

The Disney parody in the Family Guy episode "Road to the Multiverse" is sometimes believed by others that it WAS made by Disney due to realistically mimicking the animation style and throwing in some Disney references (such as a musical sequence about pies, making Brian and Stewie look cute, Lois like a princess, Adam West as a mouse, etc.) But to be fair, this sequence was outsourced to a smaller, lesser-known animation studio (it wasn't even animated in South Korea like the show usually is.)
The fact that Disney now owns the rights to the parody as a result of their acquisition of Fox makes it Hilarious in Hindsight.

Due to Dreamworks' large presence in streaming television, creating cartoons such as Voltron: Legendary Defender, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, and Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, you'll occasionally witness someone say that other Netflix animated series like The Dragon Prince or Carmen Sandiego were made by Dreamworks. The Dragon Prince was actually made by Wonderstorm, while Carmen was made by WildBrain.

The Wild, made by C.O.R.E. Animation, is a weird case. Technically speaking, it is a Disney film in the sense that they distributed it and it even carries the Disney logo. However, this often leads to people thinking the film was made by Disney themselves. Make that mistake in front of hardcore Disney fans, and they'll eat you alive. Made even worse by the fact that in the UK, The Wild is featured as the 46th film in the Disney Animated Canon, while the 39th film Dinosaur is excluded.

There was once a perception since The Sopranos that all prestige series/miniseries was from HBO (sorry AMC). Though is much less a thing since Netflix threw its hat in that game.

Bootleg video tapes of Rock and Rule distributed at comic book conventions incorrectly claimed it was directed by Ralph Bakshi, when it actually was made by Nelvana in Canada, apparently because Bakshi was the only well-known creator of adult-oriented animation in The '80s, despite Rock & Rule having nothing in common with his style.
