Paramount Home Entertainment: Difference between revisions

* June 13, 1995-January 2007: "A VIACOM COMPANY" (in the same font as the 1990 Viacom logo)

*A variation exists where the announcer says "Paramount is pleased to bring you our feature presentation". This was used with all three byline variants, and can be found on Laserdisc releases, as well as VHS releases which have no previews before the film (such as the 1989 releases of the first four ''Star Trek'' films, the 1998 release of ''A Separate Peace'', the 2000 release of ''South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut'', the 2005 remake of ''Yours, Mine, and Ours'', the 2001 release ''Nick Jr.'s Imagine That!'', any promotional copies of movies released by Paramount (except for several of them such as ''Harriet the Spy'', ''The Ghost and the Darkness'', ''The General's Daughter'', ''Coach Carter, The Longest Yard, Aeon Flux, A Night at the Roxbury'', ''The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie'', ''Teletubbies: Naughty Noo Noo!'', ''Boohbah: Hot Dog'', ''Ghost Town'', ''Rugrats: Phil and Lil Double Trouble'', ''What's Eating Gilbert Grape'', ''Rugrats: Grandpa's Favorite Stories'', ''Midnight Man'', ''The Phantom'', ''The Score'', ''A Very Brady Sequel'', ''Beavis and Butthead Do America'', ''The Ghost and the Darkness'' and ''[[Nickelodeon]] Super Toons''), and the 1998 widescreen VHS release of ''Forrest Gump'', while the full screen version has the standard voice-over). This variant also appears on tapes made and sold exclusively through Columbia House (usually identifiable by the presence of an orange sticker on the cover). On rare occasions, this variation did appear right after previews, such as the 1996 VHS of ''Ferris Bueller's Day Off'' and its 2000 reprint, and a series of four videocassettes sold as part of a 1993 McDonald's promotion, including ''The Addams Family'' and ''Ghost'' (these releases have the Rank Home Video print logo on one of the spines on the slipcovers for those films and a face label on the tapes with a special red, yellow, black and white color scheme).

* The 1991 screener VHS of ''Subspecies'' had a silent version, probably an error on Paramount's part.

*The final Paramount film released on VHS and to use this logo was the 2006 VHS of ''Yours, Mine & Ours'' (2005 remake), and the last tapes to use it overall were the 2006 VHS of ''Go Diego Go!: Diego Saves Christmas'', which is also the final retail Paramount VHS ever released. This bumper continued to be use on rare screener tapes until 2008 with the screener VHS release of ''Ghost Town''.

*The normal version strangely appears on the original 1989 VHS release of ''Major League,'' a Columbia House print of the VHS of ''The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear'', the 1991 ''Star Trek: The Movies'' VHS box set (pan and scan version only; the widescreen edition of the box set uses the other voiceover), a 1995 reprint of ''Black Rain,'' ''Mean Girls'', ''School of Rock'', certain prints of ''Paycheck,'' and the promotional copy of ''Rugrats in Paris: The Movie'', despite all of those releases having no previews before the film.

*This and the preceding Stay Tuned After the Movie bumper make surprise appearances on British VHS releases that have special features at the end of the tape, such as ''The Italian Job'' and ''Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life''. All others from 2003-06 just use a variant based on the UK coming attractions bumpers.

*Used in tandem with the 9th logo on 2002 releases, this was seen on ''Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius'', ''SpongeBob SquarePants: Halloween'', ''Clockstoppers'', ''Blue's Clues: Meet Joe'', ''9/11: The Filmmakers' Commemorative Edition'', ''Rugrats: Halloween'', the original releases of ''Crossroads'', ''Vanilla Sky'', and ''Orange County'', the Special Edition VHS release of ''Rat Race'', the retail VHS of ''Hey Arnold!: The Movie'', the demo VHS of ''SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories'', ''We Were Soldiers'', and ''Rugrats: Easter''.

'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' At the end of the ''Dora the Explorer: It's a Party!'' 2005 VHS, the 1989 version of the 1987 [[Paramount Television (1967-2006)|Paramount Television]] theme is heard. It's not heard on the demo version of the VHS, however.

* Demo tapes still used this logo through the end of 2006 (the final demo tapes from 2007 oddly used the 4th logo), while VCD releases continued using this logo until 2007. (such as the 2007 VCD of Flushed Away)

===10th Logo (May 21-December 10, 2002)===

'''Availability:''' Not as common as the 5th logo, due to its short lifespan, and this logo was only used for less than a year.

*The first release to use this was the second VHS print of ''Vanilla Sky'', and was seen on certain other 2002 Paramount Home Video VHS releases from the time frame after that, such as ''SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories'', ''The Sum of All Fears'', ''Lucky Break'', ''MTV Yoga'', subsequent prints of ''Crossroads'' and ''Orange County'', ''Dora the Explorer: Move to the Music'', ''The Day Reagan Was Shot'', ''Damaged Care'', ''Bleacher Bums'', ''My Horrible Year!'', the demo VHS tapes of ''Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat'', ''SpongeBob SquarePants: Bikini Bottom Bash'', ''SpongeBob SquarePants: Deep Sea Sillies'', ''Blue's Clues: Blue's Big Band'', ''Rugrats: Mysteries'' and ''Hey Arnold!: The Movie'' (the retail versions have the 5th logo), all 3 ''Jackass'' volumes, ''Rugrats: Christmas'', ''Dora the Explorer: Christmas'', and ''Little Bill: Merry Christmas, Little Bill''. The last tape to use this was ''K-19: The Widowmaker''.

'''Availability:''' Extinct. Was seen on a 2002 TV spot for the DVD release of ''Rat Race''. It is unknown if this appeared anywhere else, but don't expect to see an animated variant on early Paramount DVDs, as they jump to the warning screen at the beginning instead, sometimes with previews preceding to match VHS counterparts.
