Although subject to plastering with the 1994 and 2001 logos, it is still fairly common on UA-released films of the period such as ''Baby Boom'', ''Rain Man'', and ''Rocky V'' to name a few.

Interestingly, this logo also appears on 2005 DVD of ''Fatal Beauty'' (1987 MGM film). This logo was often paired off with the popular MGM/UA Communications logo (which is sometimes cut off like on current prints of ''The Living Daylights'' and a 1993 MGM/UA Home Video print of ''Rocky''), and both logos are thus regarded as favorites. However, the short variant seems slightly easier to find than the normal variant. The Scope variant is extinct and only appears on older letterboxed video releases of ''The Living Daylights'' and used to plaster older logos on certain older DVD releases. The low tone version was spotted on the Blu-Ray release of ''Rain Man'', on the French audio track. | ||
