'''Logo:''' On a {{color|red}} background, a piece of the Cinema City's "'''CCC'''" logo appears to take up the whole screen before zooming out to just above the center of the screen, and then it pings on the upper left corner. The 2nd piece appears, zooms out, and then shines on the corner again, and then the 3rd piece simply fades in and pings as well. Compared to the previous logo, all of it is in a metallic {{color|#d4af37|golden}} color with bevels and slightly rounded edges. The logo then shines around the edges thrice: one along the top, one along the bottom, and then all around from the right. Finally, a metallic {{color|#d4af37|golden}} bar in the same style as the logo fades in below, and a light beam shines in the following Chinese text depending on the years: | '''Logo:''' On a {{color|red}} background, a piece of the Cinema City's "'''CCC'''" logo appears to take up the whole screen before zooming out to just above the center of the screen, and then it pings on the upper left corner.

'''Availability:''' Rare. Seen on | '''Availability:''' Rare. Seen on their films of the time from ''Love, Lone Flower'' to ''Blue Lightning''. Sometimes is plastered by the Media Asia logo, or those of other companies on export versions, such as Atlas International. It is intact on Fortune Star's release of John Woo's ''A Better Tomorrow'', Anchor Bay's U.S. DVD of ''A Better Tomorrow II'', and the Dimension release of ''City on Fire'' (surprisingly, after the Media Asia logo!). Also seen on their film trailers like the last logo. The early version is very hard to find and was seen on ''Love, Lone Flower'' as well as ''The Family Strikes Back''. | ||
