*On the ''Open Season'' short "Boog & Elliot's Midnight Bun Run" and ''The ChubbChubbs Save Xmas'', the first half of the [[Sony Pictures Animation]] logo music can be heard during the logo, before the Columbia logo cuts into the mentioned logo as the music finishes.

*On some films, the 1998 alternate fanfare is high-toned. Notable films that are being played in high tone on NTSC prints are: ''Zathura: A Space Adventure'', ''The Pink Panther'' (2006), ''Casino Royale'' (2006), ''The Pursuit of Happyness'', ''Catch and Release'', ''Ghost Rider'', ''How Do You Know'', the 2012 remake of ''Total Recall'', and most early Sony Pictures Animation films up to ''Hotel Transylvania'', among others. The high-toned version of all versions of the fanfare listed above can mostly be found on PAL prints of almost all movies by the company. However, the 1998 alternate fanfare is likely to be double-pitched on PAL prints of these aforementioned movies listed. The sequels to ''Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs'' (2009) and ''Hotel Transylvania'' (2012) (except ''Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation'') use the normal-toned 1998 common fanfare instead due to the 1998 alternative fanfare being retired.

*There is also a double-pitched (very high tone) version of the 1998 theme, which can be heard on ''Hollow Man'', ''The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc'' (likely to be a triple-pitched version on these PAL releases), and at least the Amazon Prime Video print of ''The Pursuit of Happyness''.<!-- may be on other prints -->

*On ''Palmetto'', yet another arrangement of the theme is heard without cymbal hits, ending smoothly with synthesized flutes. This variant was only seen on original Columbia TriStar releases, as current releases remove this logo (prior to Time Warner owning the Castle Rock library, as ''Palmetto'' is a Castle Rock film, however a recent TCM France airing retained the Columbia logo, which was also in widescreen).

*This also appears on the 1997 Director's Cut version of ''Das Boot''. Also, the 2006 version plasters the original 1993 logo on the Blu-ray of ''Muppets from Space''.

*It also may have been seen on theatrical prints of ''The Wind in the Willows'' (1996), later re-titled ''Mr. Toad's Wild Ride'', but it doesn't appear on any VHS or DVD releases of said film due to Disney owning the video rights. As a result, it was plastered by the 1985 [[Walt Disney Pictures]] logo.

*Despite appearing on promotional material, this doesn't strangely appear at the beginning of a few Sony Pictures Animation films such as ''The Star'', ''Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation (it came back for the 4th film)'', ''The Angry Birds Movie 2'', and ''Wish Dragon'', although the "Released by" closing logo appears at the end for said films. This is most likely due to ''The Emoji Movie'''s poor reception. Some films from said studio don't even have a Columbia logo at all, because of being Netflix co-productions.

*This logo appears on international trailers for ''The Punisher'' and ''Suspect Zero''; however, the two films use the 5th [[Columbia TriStar Film Distributors International]] logo instead.
