'''Music/Sounds:''' We start with a mysterious wind tune that fades with a high-pitched descending shriek of some sort (long version only). Following is some ringing sounds of bells, another wind tune (long version only), the metallic sounds of the train gears along with a train whistle and the rails clattering. An eerie synth drone/hum is heard throughout starting with the bells. "Sound design and mix by Academy Award® Winner Randy Thom, Skywalker Sound" according to the Dolby Demo DVD Explore Our World.

'''Availability:''' Common. It appears in some cinemas that use the Dolby Digital technology, but it can be easily found on certain laserdiscs and DVDs, like the Japanese Laserdisc of ''Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace'' (in Surround EX!) and the THX-certified 1997 DVD of Platoon. The Dolby Stereo version is seen on some Laserdisc releases such as Stargate, True Lies, Speed, and Immortal Beloved. The 4:3 version appears on the rare THX-certified 1998 Laserdisc of ''Singin' in the Rain''. Can also be seen on the Dolby demo disc ''Explore Our World'' and some Roadshow Entertainment DVD's such as ''Happy Feet''. This logo debuted on the theatrical release of ''Batman Returns''. The "Where available" variant was seen on Starz in the late 90s and early 2000s when they began broadcasting films with Dolby Digital audio. One of the last appearances of the Dolby Stereo Digital logo is believed to have been on the original theatrical release of ''Toy Story''.

'''Editor's Note:''' An iconic debut. The CGI is a bit dated for today, but was pretty advanced for the early '90s; in all fairness, this logo's soundtrack is the real star of the show here, anyway.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A thunderclap followed by a quick-paced drum solo ending with a cymbal hit, a helicopter and an ascending electric guitar strum that fades into a choir. Drum and cymbal hits and electrical sounds are heard as "DOLBY" is spelled out. A synth-like moan (or the helicopter) and 2 long, quiet flute notes with a sustained background string-section are heard during the zooming into the theater and finally a moaning sound and a descending piano tune. Mixed at Pacific Ocean Post Studios and re-mixed by Terry Porter at Walt Disney Studios.

'''Availability:''' Common. First used mainly on later Laserdiscs from that time including early DVDs, such as ''Cats Don't Dance'' and the 1997 MGM DVD of ''2001: A Space Odyssey''. Can also be seen on some Nutech Digital DVDs if you select Dolby Digital, such as ''Tom Sawyer'', ''Peter Pan'', ''20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'', ''Wind in the Willows'', ''The Odyssey'', ''Treasure Island'', among others. Also seen on some DVDs from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and Roadshow Entertainment, such as the region 4 DVD releases of ''Blue Streak'', ''Girl Interrupted'', ''Riding in Cars With Boys'', ''Cruel Intentions'', ''Stepmom'', ''As Good As It Gets'', ''Madeline'', ''Almost Famous'', ''Panic Room'', ''Charlie's Angels'' and ''Spiderman'', as well as the American DVD of ''Advertising Rules!'', among others. The AC-3 Digital version can be found on the DVD of ''Tenchi Muyo: The Movie'', ''The Mask'' 1994 LD, AC-3 US T2 LD, 1995 Laserdisc of ''Die Hard 3'' and the letterboxed edition of ''The Indian and the Cupboard''. Also appeared on the computer games ''Descent 3'' and the DVD release of ''Wing Commander IV''. The "Where available" variant was seen on Starz in the late 90s and early 2000s when they began broadcasting films with Dolby Digital audio. This was retained on the Australian 2014 DVD reprint of ''Stuart Little''. This also shows up on the 2017 Shock Entertainment Region 4 DVD release of ''The Craft'' (alongside the Sony Pictures DVD Center logo, likely because they used the source master from the original 2001 Collector's Edition DVD release, however the Shock Entertainment logo replaces the original Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment logo). This also appears on the 2003 Miramax Home Entertainment Region 4 DVD release of ''Kate & Leopold''.

'''Editor's Note:''' A highly iconic logo, even if the CGI doesn't hold up to today's standards. It's very fondly remembered to the point where a remake/follow-up was made in 2006.
