Final answer:

The film released third is Jets, based on the provided sequence and conditions for the release schedule.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which film is released third, we need to organize the information provided by the conditions:

  1. Glaciers is released before Lovebird.
  2. Jets is released before Hurricanes and after Kangaroos.
  3. Fiesta is released before Kangaroos.

Following these conditions, we first establish that Fiesta comes before Kangaroos. Then, Kangaroos must be released before Jets, which in turn, is before Hurricanes. Now, since Glaciers has to come before Lovebird but there's no other information about its positioning relative to other films, it can be placed anywhere before Lovebird as long as it respects the other rules. Therefore, without additional constraints on Glaciers and Lovebird, the potential sequence fulfilling all conditions is:

  1. Fiesta
  2. Kangaroos
  3. Jets
  4. Glaciers/Lovebird (interchangeable)
  5. Hurricanes
  6. Lovebird/Glaciers (interchangeable)

Hence, the film released third is Jets.
