*On films shot in 2.35:1 (anamorphic Panavision), the abstract triangle and Pegsaus zoom out further back to accommodate the wider ratio. On VHS and full-screen DVD releases, they might use the full image or use the pan-and-scan version of the zooming Pegsaus by (1) the screen focusing on the Pegasus when it appears and suddenly shifting when it jumps over the "T", (2) the screen following the Pegasus or (3) the screen starting in the middle and the Pegasus appearing shortly before it jumps over the "T". On two Carolco movies in the aforementioned format (in this case, shot in Super 35), ''Deepstar Six'' and ''Air America'', the standard logo is stretched to fit the ratio. | *On films shot in 2.35:1 (anamorphic Panavision), the abstract triangle and Pegsaus zoom out further back to accommodate the wider ratio.

*On ''Iron Eagle'' and ''The Fisher King'', a 1.85:1 version of the shrinking Pegasus was used. A cropped 2.35 version was used on ''Terminator 2: Judgment Day''. The open matte version, which shows more of the top but crops out some of the sides, appears only on the 4:3 version of ''The Fisher King''; ''Iron Eagle'' used the full image in its 4:3 version, and ''Terminator 2: Judgment Day'' never had a known 4:3 release with the TriStar logo | *On ''Iron Eagle'' and ''The Fisher King'', a 1.85:1 version of the shrinking Pegasus was used.

*Some anamorphic Scope films, such as ''The Bear'', used the full image in their 4:3 versions.

*Strangely, this logo replaces the 1993 logo on certain airings and prints of ''Matilda'', including TBS and Disney Channel Spain, which uses the 1993 music over the 1984 logo, likely due to reverse plastering. | *Strangely, this logo replaces the 1993 logo on certain airings and prints of ''Matilda'', including TBS and Disney Channel Spain, which uses the 1993 music over the 1984 logo, likely due to reverse plastering. | ||
