'''Logo:''' Essentially the same as the previous logo, except this one includes a metallic version of the "UA Swoosh" logo from 1987. Instead of the cross-indentations of the "A" being swooshed in this time around, they are "sliced" in by a light effect from left to right, one by one. There is also a URL for "www.unitedartists.com" underneath the company byline.

'''Trivia:''' This logo also appears preceded by the current MGM lion on new prints of older United Artists releases.

'''Availability:''' Common. It's seen on some new and recent films released by UA, including ''Jeepers Creepers'', ''Ghost World'', and ''Hot Tub Time Machine''. This logo has now become the standard for plastering the Transamerica and later logos on notable films such as the ''James Bond'' and ''Rocky'' franchises. It also appears on PBS's print of ''The Last Waltz''. On the 2020 re-releases of the ''Rocky'' movies, this appears (after the 2001 MGM logo) on ''Rocky II.'' This logo hasn't been used since the release of 2012's ''Red Dawn'' (and even then, only as a sort of legacy credit), as United Artists now operates in-name-only.

'''Editor's Note:''' A refinement of the previous logo, thanks in large part to the use of the 1987 design.
