Line 39: Line 39:
'''FX/SFX:''' Some early CGI from the looks of it, which is remarkably advanced for the time period and holds up quite well today.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A low bell-ish chime, then an ascending synth drone (not unlike THX), which leads into a triumphant synth hit and a 7-note chime tune. Reverse cymbal crashes are used for the beams shooting. Later releases have the music start a little softer (with a different "chime" that's shorter and higher-pitched) and the whole thing is re-orchestrated (but you almost can't make the difference). The distribution version uses the opening theme to the trailer, if not the regular music.

'''Availability:''' Somewhat easier to find than the previous logo, but still very rare. Releases with this logo include ''Monty Python and the Holy Grail'' and some of the ''Scanners'' movies, particularly parts 2 and 3 and ''Scanner Cop 1'' and ''2''. Also appears on some Canadian releases of Vidmark tapes such as ''Leprechaun'', ''Spitfire'', ''Heatseeker'', and ''Best Kept Secrets''. It also appears on Canadian releases of VHS tapes from [[Republic Pictures]] such as ''A.P.E.X.'' and French-Canadian VHS releases of Paramount films such as ''Cool World''. Also found on a rare VHS release of ''Something About Love''. This makes a surprise appearance on the 2002 Platinum Disc DVD of ''Blind Fear'' and the French-dubbed version of ''Dead Cold'', before the [[Image Organization]] logo on the latter film's Canadian DVD release from Seville Pictures. Also appears on Canadian VHS releases of the 1991 film ''The Psychic'', before the [[Cineglobe (Canada)|Cineglobe]] and [[C/FP Distribution (Canada)|C/FP Distribution]] logos and on ''Frame Up'' before the [[Cineglobe (Canada)|Cineglobe]] logo, oddly.
