* Another variant has a darker mood. The presentation is the same as usual, except the initial darkness of the globe is darker than usual (pay close attention to that). Then, after the word "UNIVERSAL" is rotated from behind, either a darker, thicker shadow suddenly pops out, then gets brighter than normal towards the end after it locks in position. The entire globe zooms out farther than its intended mark, and instead of slowing to a stop, it stops hard in its far-back position. The globe appears much further back in letterbox format. This variant can be found on ''8 Mile'', ''American Wedding'', ''Seabiscuit'', ''Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World'', ''The Bourne Supremacy'', and ''White Noise''. The variant with the NBC Universal byline (and no shadow) can be seen on stereoscopic 3D prints of ''Despicable Me'' (the 2D prints use the normal variant with the NBC Universal byline).
