'''Nickname: | '''Nickname:''' ''Abstract Flag II'' | ||
'''Logo: | '''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a blue line passing quickly, and there are 4 red lines there and the words "USA" passes by and it can be barely seen from the red stripes, and then later we see blue and red stripes. Later, the words "USA" appear and flash as the words "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" slide rapidly to the left, with some of them placing themselves in the logo; they then clarify and space in as the black background changes into a purple-black gradient. And then, the "USA" and the flag shine, and part of "ENTERTAINMENT" shines too. The end product looks similar to that of the previous logo, except that the text is in 2D as opposed to 3D, and "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" is not in italics. | ||
'''Variant: | '''Variant:''' "WHERE THE VISION LIVES" sometimes appears under the logo from the right, with "VISION" shining in place of "ENTERTAINMENT" at the end. | ||
'''FX/SFX: | '''FX/SFX:''' The blue and red stripes moving fastly, the spacing in, and the shining. It's an improvement over both the previous and the movie logo. | ||
'''Music/Sounds: | '''Music/Sounds:''' A catchy, drum-based fanfare synchronized with the logo's animation. | ||
'''Availability: | '''Availability:''' Rare. Seen on releases such as ''Traffic'', ''Series 7: The Contenders'', ''Mad About Mambo'', ''Where The Money Is'' and ''One Night at McCool's'', among others. | ||
'''Editor's Note: | '''Editor's Note:''' None. | ||
