20th Century Home Entertainment: Difference between revisions

===Background===

After [[The Walt Disney Company]]'s purchase of Fox in 2019, the name would be retired on-screen in 2020 with the rename to 20th Century Studios, and future home media releases would use a shortened version of the movie logo starting with the video release of ''The Call of the Wild'', while the 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment name was still used for copyright holding purposes until December of that year.  

* There exists a black and white variant of the 1995 version. This can be found on the 2001 Fox War Classics VHS release of ''The Desert Rats''.

* A 16:9 version of the 1995 logo appears on the widescreen DVD release of ''Thumbelina''.

* On ''Icebreaker'', the logo starts with a very slow fade-in, and it's still before animating; then, after fully animating, it freezes before fading out. The logo is also darker and slower. The way this logo fades and freezes is rather similar to the version found on the Widescreen Series promo on some 1996 Fox tapes. There's also a still bitmap of the end of the normal logo, found in the game's files in the menus directory.

* A shorter version exists where the 1995 logo begins halfway through the animation. This has been spotted on the 2005 DVD release of ''Pet Alien: Atomic Tommy'' as well as VHS releases of ''Strawberry Shortcake''.

**It also appears at the end of ''Casper Meets Wendy'' on Disney Channel and ABC Family (now Freeform), as well as most international TV broadcasts of the film.

**While it does appear at the end of the last few [[HIT Entertainment]] DVD releases that they released, it doesn't appear at the beginning of any of them, unlike with [[Lionsgate Home Entertainment|Lionsgate]] and [[Universal Pictures Home Entertainment|Universal]].

**It also appears on ''Icebreaker'' for PC instead of the 1996 [[Fox Interactive]] logo.

*Enhanced version (2003-2009):

**It first appeared on mid-to-late D-Theater D-VHS releases of TCF films.

'''Availability:''' Excluding a few Canadian releases such as the 2000 VHS release of ''Thunder and Lightning'', this logo only appears outside of North America.

* The DVD version can be seen on early UK DVD releases including the original ''Miracle on 34th Street'', and also appears on early Italian DVD releases of such films as ''There's Something About Mary'' and ''Young Frankenstein''.

** It also appeared on the 2012 release of ''The Simpsons'' Season 1 Region 4 DVD set (due to being a reprint of the 2001 release).

* The DVD variant also appears on the 2001 Australian DVD releases of ''Titan A.E.'' and ''Romancing the Stone'', while the next logo is on their VHS counterparts (possibly due to this logo to being used in tandem with the next logo on DVD releases from the time in that country).

** It also shows up on the 2010s DVD reprint of ''Mrs Doubtfire'' (1993), most likely due to being a reprint of the original 2001 DVD release.

* It also shows up on the 2014 Australian DVD reprint of ''Alien'', due to the master being from the original 2000 Region 4 20th Anniversary Edition DVD.

* It also appears on a 2018 Australian DVD reprint of ''Aliens'', also due to it using the master from the 2000 Region 4 1-Disc Special Edition DVD.

* The standard tone 1994 Fox fanfare arrangement music variant can be seen on most Fox DVD releases in Latin America/Brazil until the late 2000s (when they started to use the 1997 fanfare in NTSC tone), some international UMD for PSP releases such as ''Cheaper by The Dozen'' (2003), as well as a few PAL DVD releases in the UK, such as ''Family Guy: Season Two'', and can be also seen on a French ''24'' DVD sampler, and (in a letterboxed variant) on a trailer for ''24'' DVD releases at the start of a French PAL DVD of ''The Sentinel'' (although the 1997 PAL version makes an appearance after the trailer reel/before the menu).

** It can also be heard on the Japanese and Hong Kong DVD releases of ''Robots'' as well.

* It doesn't appear on the Australian VHS releases of ''The Magic School Bus''.

** It does, however, appear on their Australian VHS releases of ''Flipper & Lopaka''.  

** It also doesn't appear on the 2003 Australian DVD release of ''The Wiggles Movie'', as it goes straight to the menu after the warning and rating screens.

* In Australia, it was used in tandem with the previous logo on DVD releases up until sometime in the mid-2000s (one example of a Region 4 DVD released in this era that uses this logo is the Region 4 DVD release of ''Never Been Kissed'').

* The enhanced version appears on very early international Blu-ray releases.

** Some releases that used it included the 2006 European Blu-ray release of ''Ice Age 2: The Meltdown'' (the standard logo is on the DVD and Italian-only VHS counterparts), the 2006 UK Blu-ray release of ''Fantastic Four (2005)'', and the 2007 Australian Blu-ray release of ''Rising Sun''.

** It was also falsely rumoured to have been used on a 2010 Canadian DVD release of ''Diary of a Wimpy Kid''.

===4th Logo (November 14, 2006-November 2010)===

*Other than TCF and MGM releases, this was also seen on [[Relativity Media]] releases starting with ''The Warrior's Way'' and ending with ''Masterminds'', all [[DreamWorks Animation]] films TCF distributed from ''The Croods'' to ''Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie'' (plastered by the 2013 [[Universal Pictures Home Entertainment|UPHE]] logo on post-2018 prints, although some prints post-2018 may retain it), and self-distributed [[Annapurna Pictures]] releases starting with ''Detroit'' and ending with ''Where'd You Go, Bernadette''.

*This also appeared on DVDs of ''Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures'' and ''Little Angels''.

*The last releases to use this logo with the News Corporation byline were ''The Internship'' and ''The Way Way Back'', both released on DVD and Blu-ray on October 22, 2013.

*The last release to use this logo cut-short to the middle was ''Underwater'', which was released on DVD and Blu-ray on April 14, 2020, as TCFHE was folded into [[Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment|Walt Disney Studios/Buena Vista Home Entertainment]] shortly after.
