Finnkino: Difference between revisions

'''Availability:''' Scarce. Quite many VHS tapes and titles distributed by Finnkino from this time period have the original, blue variant. The black and yellow variant is found on a couple of theatrical films at the time such as ''The Winter War'', and it is seen in the VHS reprint from 2001 despite the existence of the 3rd logo in it.

===2nd Logo (1994-1998)===

'''Logo:''' On a space background, a rotating planet gets revealed by light. It then converts into a creature's eye with 2 ballet dancers jumping up. The eye then converts back to the planet before the ballet dancers become dust and fly away. The current Finnkino logo, which is a circle with the letter "'''f'''" in it, appears in {{color|red}}, along with the text "{{color|red|'''FINNKINO'''}}" stacked on each other being briefly seen. The planet and stars disappear, as the logo appears.

'''Availability:''' Very rare due to its short time period.

===3rd Logo (1999-2010)===

'''Logo:''' On a black background, a {{color|blue}} streak revolves and forms a {{color|silver}} ring. It then starts to rotate up as another streak forms another {{color|silver}} ring. As this happens, the space between the rings turns {{color|orange}} and an {{color|orange}} streak forms the "'''f'''" with a spotlight revolving around it. The "'''f'''" then shines, inverting the color placement and giving off a glow. "{{color|silver|'''F I N N K I N O'''}}" then appears below and shines.

'''Music/Sounds:''' An ominous soundtrack with electrical sounds throughout the logo and a drum roll at the end.

===4th Logo (2010-2022)===

'''Variants:''' A pair of variants include one with a 4:3 standard ratio and a separate letterboxed variant with the same aspect ratio.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Dramatic and mystical orchestral music, that becomes more optimistic-sounding after the loud impact sound caused by the flashing logo.

'''Availability:''' Current. Seen on every film distributed by Finnkino since its debut.

===5th Logo (2022-)===

'''Logo:''' We have a large chunk of solid 1's and 0's moving around like nanobots on a black background. {{color|Gray}} flair can be seen around when the nanobots get separate and form {{color|red}} cinema chairs and a floating popcorn pack with the rest of them lying on the ground. The camera pans on the popcorn pack, as they scatter and fly to the other side of the room and form a Hollywood sign and replica of the Jussi Awards statue in front of it. We then see them scattering and flying to the left side, as the camera follows them forming a couple of Finnkino cinema tickets. The camera quickly rotates around the thing, as the nanobots then scatter again and form the company logo, which becomes solid as it comes for a better view. We also see letters being formed below the logo stating "{{color|silver|'''AINUTLAATUINEN.'''}}", then "{{color|silver|'''DIGITAALINEN.'''}}" and then flip around to view "{{color|gold|'''FINNKINO'''}}".

'''Music/Sounds:''' A low humming sound, with sounds of the numbers rubbing against each other.

'''Availability:''' Extinct. Seen in Finnish theaters owned by the cinema chain at the time.

===2nd Logo (June 2013-2022)===

'''Availability:''' Current.

===3rd Logo (2022-)===

'''Availability:''' TBA.
