*The "From NEW LINE CINEMA" closing variant also makes an appearance at the end of the workprint of ''The Mask,'' however, all theatrical/home media releases use a still variant of the opening logo instead after the credits, suggesting the "From" closing variant was at one stage in post-production going to be in the film.

'''Trivia:''' On the 1996 LaserDisc audio commentary of ''The Mask'' (carried over to every DVD/Blu-ray release of the film), director Chuck Russell mentions the film was the debut of the 1994 prototype logo. However, theatrical prints of the film used the previous logo, and home media releases and television prints plaster it with the 1994 prototype variant. The film's first home video release was released on January 18, 1995, three months after the theatrical release of ''Wes Craven's New Nightmare,'' making the latter film the actual debut of the logo. It's possible, but currently not confirmed, that the logo was initially supposed to debut on theatrical prints of ''The Mask'' but wasn't ready yet by the time of the film's theatrical release.
