Walt Disney Pictures: Difference between revisions

<u>Availability:</u> Very common. It was first seen on ''Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest'' (although on a trailer for the movie, the 7th logo is shown instead). Current on recent Disney films as well as direct-to-video titles. It can also be seen on Pixar productions starting with ''WALL-E''. The version with the full company name "Walt Disney PICTURES" initially made its final appearance on the direct-to-DVD film ''Treasure Buddies'', released on January 31, 2012, though it later made a surprise appearance at the end of ''The Lone Ranger'', released on July 3, 2013 (only on the theatrical release, though). Also starting in the late 2000's, it appeared at the end of classic Walt Disney movies, shorts and pre-2008 Pixar fims, such as ''Sleeping Beauty'', ''101 Dalmatians'' (starting in 2008; on ''101 Dalmatians'', the logo is also at the start of the film), ''Toy Story'', ''Toy Story 2'', ''Pinocchio'', ''Dumbo'', ''Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'' (all starting in 2009), ''Beauty and the Beast'' (starting in 2010), ''Bambi'', ''Alice in Wonderland'', ''The Lion King'', (all starting in 2011; also on ''Bambi'', the logo plasters over the original RKO logo at the start until 2017), ''Finding Nemo'', ''Cinderella'' (starting in 2012), ''Monsters, Inc.'', ''Aladdin'', ''Peter Pan'', ''The Little Mermaid'' (staring in 2013), ''Hercules'' (the Netflix print restores the 6th logo) and ''The Jungle Book'' (starting in 2014), among others. It also appears on newer TV airings of movies and Blu-Ray discs as well (oddly enough, the recent HBO Asia airings of most pre-2006 Disney films have the original Disney logos intact). This does not appear on anything that they merely distributed such as films from Marvel and Lucasfilm Ltd. Seen also on some Indian films produced by this company like ''Khoobsurat''. This also appears preceding the Studio Ghibli logo on the 2010 DVD releases of their output, such as ''Ponyo'', and is even surprisingly retained at the end of the UK DVD release of the movie, even though Optimum Releasing distributed the film there.
