===Movies=== Feature films have been a mainstay of TNT since its inception. TNT maintains film licensing agreements with sister company [[Warner Bros.|Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.]] (primarily releases from [[Warner Bros. Pictures]] and [[New Line Cinema]]), [[Walt Disney Studios (division)|The Walt Disney Studios]] (primarily releases from [[Walt Disney Pictures]] (live-action only), [[Touchstone Pictures]], [[Marvel Studios]], [[Lucasfilm]] and [[20th Century Studios]]), [[Columbia Pictures]], [[Universal Pictures]] and [[Paramount Pictures]]. Since the launch of Turner Classic Movies, TNT's film lineup has shifted away from classic films outside of special airings of films such as ''[[The Wizard of Oz (1939 film)|The Wizard of Oz]]'' (which has been aired recently since 2014) in December many times in a row on certain days every year either before or close to Christmas time. ''[[The Wizard of Oz (1939 film)|The Wizard of Oz]]'' had also used to be aired on TNT in the past for several years in November close to Thanksgiving time a few times in a row on certain days every year too. Now in favor of more recent films released from the 1980s onward, with an emphasis on films released after 1995. Presently, most of the films broadcast on TNT are of the drama and action genres, however some [[comedy film]]s continue to air on the channel periodically. Films generally air on the channel during the overnight hours on most nights and for much of the day on weekends. Beginning in 1997, TNT broadcast a 24-hour marathon of the 1983 comedy film ''[[A Christmas Story]]'' from the evening of [[Christmas Eve]] to the evening of [[Christmas Day]]. The marathon also runs on its sister channel TBS beginning in 2004, when the annual event became exclusive to that channel and it still does now along with TNT airing it again at the same time starting in 2014 together on both networks. Beginning one hour early on TBS, one hour later on TNT and ending one hour early on TBS and one hour later on TNT. Each weekend, TNT airs a film in [[prime time|primetime]] with limited commercial interruption, branded in on-air [[promo (media)|promos]] under the title "More Movies, Less Commercials."
