Nickelodeon Movies is the motion picture production arm of children’s cable channel Nickelodeon, originally founded on July 10, 1996. Its first film was Harriet the Spy. It has produced films based on Nickelodeon programs, as well as other adaptations and original projects. Its films are released by fellow Viacom division Paramount Pictures. Nickelodeon Movies is originally to be launched in May 1993 as a division of 20th Century Fox, but the launch date was delayed to July 10, 1996, hence Fox transferred their owner duties for Paramount Pictures. It is also affectionately known as the Sponge, based on SpongeBob SquarePants episodes put out by Nickelodeon. SpongeBob SquarePants is also the mascot of Nickelodeon Movies. On August 21, 2006, Nickelodeon Movies and MTV Films became full labels of the Paramount Motion Pictures Group.[1]
