The Buena Vista Motion Pictures Group is a collection of affiliated motion picture studios, all subsidaries of The Walt Disney Company. It includes:

• Walt Disney Pictures
• Touchstone Pictures
• Hollywood Pictures

The name Buena Vista comes from the much older company Buena Vista Distribution, a company founded by Walt Disney as a subsidary to distribute his films in 1955. That name in turn came from the street name in Burbank where the Walt Disney Studios complex was, and still exists today.

The President of the Group is Nina Jacobson , who reports to Dick Cook, Chairman of the Walt Disney Studios. Cook, in turn, reports to Bob Iger, President/COO of The Walt Disney Company.

In 2002, Walt Disney Pictures made headlines as they made their first ever PG-13 certificate film, Pirates of the Caribbean, a movie based on a Disneyland attraction. Although Miramax, Touchstone, and other Disney-owned studios have made films with certificates as high as R, Walt Disney Pictures has always remained traditional family-orientated, although Pirates of the Caribbean is quite mild.
