* 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.
