A label below reads "Feature Pres." while a spotlight shines on it. The camera zooms out while the case spins and shakes. The case pops open while an anthropomorphic figure made of filmstrips (named Clip, who was AMC's mascot from 1991 to 2009) flies out. He flips and lands while he is shaking his head. He waves his film hand at the case as a filmreel pops out and bounces with him while he walks on the purple floor. While they are walking, a film reel is shown sideways behind them with the text saying "There is a difference". Clip jumps and when he lands, his waves his film hand around him leaving a trail of blue light. The camera cuts to the floor turning sideways as he jumps on the filmreel and flies away. While that is happening, the AMC logo begins to draw itself in from left to right. A few mare circles of yellow and red appear on the bottom right of the screen. A gold rectangle flies in from the bottom with the text "Feature Presentation" on it. The copyright mark appears of at the end of the C. Clip flies past the logo and through the screen leaving a trail of stars behind. | ||

'''FX/SFX''': Clip and the filmreel, and the AMC logo drawing itself. More great CGI from Metrolight Studios. | '''FX/SFX''': Clip and the filmreel, and the AMC logo drawing itself. More great CGI from Metrolight Studios. | ||

* In 1998, an anniversary FP logo is used celebrating a century of movies: It starts by showing a picture of AMC in its FP form with "Salutes" underneath in silver on a black background. It then cuts to another set of text in yellow saying "AFI's 100 YEARS 100 MOVIES" with a red star on the left side of AFI, tilted. Another set of text fades in on top saying: "Celebrating A Century Of American Cinema". It cuts to a clip (unknown film) where (unknown character) says: "Let's all go to the movies!" It then fades to footage of the Radio City Music Hall marquee. It cuts to an AMC theatres sign from daytime to nighttime, the outline of AMC glows yellow. It then cuts to an updated footage of the 2nd logo without the popcorn popping, then there's a timelapse of people filling up the seats. Then we see shots of an audience, including a group of people, a couple with the husband feeding popcorn to the wife, another couple kissing, and the audience clapping. Then a film starts to play and the audience reacts to it.
