'''Logo:''' Same as the 1994 20th Century Fox logo, but it is a still picture, and the text "'''20th CENTURY FOX'''" is replaced with "'''FOX '''<span style=" font-family: Impact; Arial, sans;">SEARCHLIGHT</span> PICTURES", with "<span style=" font-family: Impact; Arial, sans;">SEARCHLIGHT</span>" in the middle larger, and with "'''FOX'''" above and "'''PICTURES'''" below, respectively. The News Corporation byline is intact, but the registered symbol is removed. | |||
'''Trivia:''' This logo is based on the 1992 [[20th Television]] logo, but with the sky background from the [[Foxstar Productions]] logo. | |||

*Current prints of the latter two films have the next logo or the 1994 20th Century Fox logo plastering it, though it survives on the first title with the 1994 logo preceding it, and also remaining on the second title without any changes whatsoever. | |||
*Also seen on trailers for very early releases from Fox Searchlight Pictures. | |||

'''Editor's Note:''' This logo lasted for about seven months, and it's a placeholder for the next logo. | |||

This time, it is in a dark/{{Font color|orange|orange}} evening environment. There are newer and more realistic textures added to the structure, we can see palm trees at the bottom at the start (as well as the addition of the Hollywood sign on the hills), three searchlights are deleted, and near the right at the end, and it's more obvious at the end that the right searchlight is pointing at us when it fills the screen with light. An (R) symbol is also now added to the logo. | ||
