'''Nicknames:''' "Orange Dots", "The Smile"


'''Logo:''' On a black background, many {{color|orange}} dots (could represent either atoms or dust particles) zoom out and form the outline "'''amazon'''" (in its corporate font). As it is zooming out, an {{color|orange}} arrow/smile is revealed under the "'''amazon'''" text, then it is zoomed out even further, revealing the text "'''{{color|orange|studios}}'''". When it has finished zooming out, "'''amazon'''" lights up in white.

'''Nicknames:''' "The Smile II", "Boring Amazon"


'''Logo:''' We see the Amazon Studios logo fade in on a black background as it slowly zooms in towards the viewer. It shines, but not so noticeably.

'''Legacy:''' It's a rather boring logo, though the next logo is the '''exact''' opposite of that.

'''Logo:''' On what at first glimpse appears to be a {{color|blue}}-tinted marble surface, we see a hardcover book in a closed position. As we start to zoom in closer to the book, it opens by itself and flips a few pages. We then see a city starting to form itself (roads uncurling, buildings sticking together like a magnet/stretching into its full position, etc). The marble surface fades to a sunset sky background (just without the sun) as that happens. Moving into center position, the last roads finish unfurling and we move further on to see street lights, a sidewalk and apartments surrounding our view. As the camera stops moving, we encounter a cinema taking form. The ending product is a typical cinema entrance sign, filled with lighting around the sides, and the Amazon Studios logo in the center of it, finally slamming onto the lighted ceiling below it.

'''FX/SFX:''' CGI created by Antenna Creative. It's clear that there was a lot of effort put into this logo.

'''Music/Sounds:''' The sound of pages flipping, followed by a set of string instruments warming up (bearing a resemblance to the [[THX]] "Cimarron" trailer and the [[PlayStation]] 3 "Waves" screen), with city construction sounds in the background, and finally an orchestra hit.

'''Legacy:''' This logo is one of the best from the 2010s, given that its nature truly makes you feel like you're being brought into the movie.

'''Nickname:''' "Boring Amazon II"


'''Logo:''' On a {{color|blue}}-black gradient background, we see the text "{{color|lightblue|'''AMAZON'''}}" wipe in from the left and "STUDIOS" wipe in from the right, both set in the Amazon Ember typeface. Then a white overlay of the text fades in from the center. The background fades, and the logo wipes out after a few seconds.

'''Legacy:''' Like the 2nd logo, it's a rather boring logo-not to mention it doesn't even feature the actual Amazon logo.
