*This was used as a de-facto home video logo, and can be seen on every VHS and Laserdisc release from that period -- this also includes television series (such as the original ''Star Trek''), comedy specials, and third-party acquisitions like ''Nutcracker: The Motion Picture'' (where this plasters the original Atlantic Releasing Corporation logo), ''Teen Wolf Too'', and ''The Garbage Pail Kids Movie''. Combine this with its 16-year span, and this may be the most common home video logo period.

*The 75th Anniversary logo plasters over the "Blue Mountain" logo on the 1987 home video releases of ''Ferris Bueller's Day Off'', ''Crocodile Dundee'', ''Children of a Lesser God'', ''Top Gun'', and ''Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home''.

International VHS release of these films (all released by CIC Video, with the exception of ''Crocodile Dundee'') will likely have the film's original logo intact.
