The background changes, and a white planet which is a chroma-keyed disco ball flies toward the middle of the screen, which makes the "cinehollywood" boxes disappear from largest to smallest. The planet morphs into another 8-pointed star before the logo fades out. | The background changes, and a white planet which is a chroma-keyed disco ball flies toward the middle of the screen, which makes the "cinehollywood" boxes disappear from largest to smallest.

FX/SFX: Everything in the logo is animated, but this is yet another contender for cheesiest logo ever. It appears all the animation was done with Scanimate, an Apple II, or both! The chyron blocks look like glass, and the optical illusions are flashy but cheesy. Many of the computer graphics behind the logo is clearly stolen from the one time television orchestra program performed by Michel Legrand called Astonishing Odyssey which performed various music and themes from classic science-fiction films. Also, the tunnel was stolen from a slit-scan demo animation used by Robert Abel & Associates in 1973 that can be seen here. | FX/SFX: Everything in the logo is animated, but this is yet another contender for cheesiest logo ever.
