The distance between the words and the mountain tip sometimes varies. | |||
The size and the color tint of the logo may vary. | The size and the color tint of the logo may vary. | ||
One variation (probably the original) has a smaller blue circle around a smaller mountain, both kind of receded. The text for "Paramount" is smaller than usual and the text for "A Gulf+Western Company" is drastically larger, along with the stars. This very strange and some consider ugly variation was seen on Hustle, Leadbelly, The Last Tycoon, Lifeguard, and Looking for Mr. Goodbar, among others. A less uglier version with re-sized text (but still keeping the receded circle and mountain) appears on some films. This version also lacks a registered trademark "®" symbol. | One variation (probably the original) has a smaller blue circle around a smaller mountain, both kind of receded.

A variation of this logo was used as a bumper for trailers to upcoming films with the phrase "Coming From" above the logo. However, trailers for Popeye and D.A.R.Y.L. among some other movies had the normal version instead. | A variation of this logo was used as a bumper for trailers to upcoming films with the phrase "Coming From" above the logo.

Music/Sounds: Often had no music, or the film's opening/closing theme. In some cases, a new orchestral fanfare by Jerry Goldsmith, based loosely on Paramount on Parade, was used on the "Coming From" variant of the logo on trailers for films like Islands in the Stream, Saturday Night Fever, Foul Play, and Airplane!. A few films, such as Starting Over, had this fanfare at the beginning. | Music/Sounds: Often had no music, or the film's opening/closing theme.
