Walt Disney Pictures: Difference between revisions

* When <u>classic Disney shorts were re-released in the 1990s</u>, the text "A FULLY RESTORED ORIGINAL/ANIMATED CLASSIC" (in the same font used for "PICTURES") is shown before the logo. On ''<u>The Old Mill</u>'', the text reads "A FULLY RESTORED ACADEMY AWARD-WINNING ANIMATED CLASSIC", with a drawing of an Oscar statue to the left and a copyright for the AMPAS on the bottom.

* A variant exists in which the flash that forms the "'''W{{Small|ALT}} Di{{small|SNEY}}'''" text is somewhat slower and shaped like an oval. Also, the arc above the castle is slightly larger than usual. This can be found on <u>''101 Dalmatians'' (1996)</u>, the <u>widescreen version of ''Lady and the Tramp'' (1998 WDMC release)</u>, ''<u>Endurance</u>'', and the <u>2004 release of ''Mary Poppins''</u>, plastering the [[Buena Vista Pictures Distribution|Buena Vista]] logo.

* The <u>original 1986 and 1988 prints of ''The Great Mouse Detective'' and ''Oliver & Company''</u> use the <u>1985 variant</u> of the logo, while the films' respective <u>1992 and 1996 video releases</u> use the <u>1990 variant</u>.  However, the original 1985 variant from ''Oliver & Company'' has appeared on a European French VHS and Widescreen Laserdisc release from 1997.

* A possible variant exists in which the "'''W{{Small|ALT}} Di{{small|SNEY}}'''" text has a <u>drop shadow</u>; however, it is unclear whether this is a result of film deterioration or distortion, or if this was indeed an actual variant.

* A variation of the logo as a <u>still image</u> can be found at the <u>end of ''The Hunchback of Notre Dame''</u> and on <u>1990s re-releases of some 1940s-1950s Disney cartoons</u>, plastering the 1953 Buena Vista logo.

'''Closing Variants:'''

* Just the final seconds of the logo, where the line draws over the castle and the text fades in. This was also used as an opening logo on current prints of ''Monsters, Inc.'', replacing the 1995 [[Pixar Animation Studios|Pixar]]-exclusive logo, albeit with the text already shown, just like in the trailer version.

* On current prints of ''Aladdin'' (1992), ''Hercules'' (1997), ''Brother Bear'' (2003, despite the previous logo being used at the beginning of the third title), and ''Winnie the Pooh: Springtime with Roo'' (2004), the tail-end of the logo plays, in order to match the length of the 2nd logo.

* In some cases, no closing logo appears at all.

** It also plasters the [[Touchstone Pictures]] logo on post-2006 prints of ''The Nightmare Before Christmas'', as it was reissued as a Disney release starting that year (although Touchstone is still listed in the closing credits).

* Also seen on some Indian films produced by the company, with the [[UTV Motion Pictures]] logo appearing on select international releases until 2017.

* It is also seen on the demo U.S. VHS release of ''Cinderella III: A Twist in Time'', marking the only known instance of the logo on an official VHS release in the USA.

* It can also be found on a few Disney games since the closure of [[Disney Interactive Studios]] in 2016, including ''Disney Infinity 1.0'' (as a variant); otherwise, the print Disney wordmark is used.

** The copyright stamp was moved to the actual logo at the end of the Disney100 "Tradition" special look video on April 3 of that same year, then the tail end of the text forming in the Disney100 "4th of July" special look video, in the same vein of the first Disney100 special look video, on July 4th of the same year, then later re-used, this time, showing the words "HERE'S TO THE NEXT 100 YEARS" as the camera is moving to its position, transitioning to the end of the text forming in the Disney100 "Lifetime" special look video on October 16th of that same year, then the finished logo, transitioning to the Mickey symbol with the words "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICKEY" on the Disney100 "Mickey's Birthday" special look video on November 18 of that same year. On Disney's TikTok page, the logo is cropped, with the finished logo in open matte and in the 9:21 ratio to fit the smartphone portrait orientation.

** Furthermore, the official site featured the finished logo. Alongside the video's release, the Disney profile picture and banner on the company's social pages were updated with the profile pic showing the Disney logo in silver on the finished logo's sky background and the profile banner showing the logo with the arc drawn and the Disney100 logo (which is different than the one shown on-screen and without the text below it) being moved up to fit with the banner's height (which was later removed beginning in 2024). On the homepage of Disney's website, as well as the Disney100 page, the arc and flags animates at 60fps and animates differently from its usual logo.

* On the LEGO Disney100 collection teaser, a Minifigure version of Tinker Bell appears as the logo (in its scope format), starting from the camera moving to its position, fades in. She flies away, then follows the arc before tapping her wand before the text is being drawn; as grey bricks appear, the screen fades to white and transitions to a scene from ''Steamboat Willie''.

* A 30fps version exists on ''Encanto at the Hollywood Bowl''; also, starting with the aforementioned special, and all films following it (except for ''Carl's Date'', ''Elemental'', ''Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny'', ''Haunted Mansion'', ''Once Upon a Studio'', and ''Wish''), the coloring is enhanced and updated, likely to accommodate for 4K UHD screens.
