* In its later years, the logo was enhanced with a motion blur effect added when the logo slides, and a slightly larger shine. This variant can be seen on movies like ''Unbreakable'', ''Gone in 60 Seconds'', and ''Veronica Guerin''. | * In its later years, the logo was enhanced with a motion blur effect added when the logo slides, and a slightly larger shine.

*At the end of a French television broadcast of ''Six Days, Seven Nights'' on the Chérie 25 network, a shortened version was used (most likely as a result of time compression), which starts with the text shining and also cuts to the 2006 [[Buena Vista International Television]] logo before it fades out. | |||
'''FX/SFX''': The stretching ball, the "flash" and the "electricity", pretty good 2D animation from Walt Disney Productions (now known as [[Walt Disney Animation Studios]]). | '''FX/SFX''': The stretching ball, the "flash" and the "electricity", pretty good 2D animation from Walt Disney Productions (now known as [[Walt Disney Animation Studios]]). | ||
'''Music/Sounds''': A series of synthesized bells, ending in a "twang" when the circle and thunder meet, composed by John Debney. In other cases, it used the opening/closing theme of the movie or silent. On some films, such as ''The Color of Money'', ''3 Ninjas'' and ''The Waterboy'', the film's opening score deliberately syncs up with the logo's animation. | '''Music/Sounds''': A series of synthesized bells, ending in a "twang" when the circle and thunder meet, composed by John Debney.

'''Availability''': Common, due to its longevity of nearly 20 years. It's found on many movies produced by the company during this time. It was first seen on ''My Science Project'' and was last seen on ''Shanghai Knights'', released on February 7, 2003, but made one last surprise appearance on ''Veronica Guerin''. This logo wasn't seen at all on ''Gangs of New York'', ''Jerky Boys: The Movie'', and overseas theatrical prints of ''Face/Off'', ''Air Force One'', ''Starship Troopers'', and ''Die Hard With a Vengeance'' (for the latter, co-producer [[Cinergi Pictures Entertainment|Cinergi]] sold most international theatrical rights to Disney/Buena Vista). However, all overseas TV, video, and streaming releases of the former 3 films start with the Buena Vista International logo, while ''Die Hard With a Vengeance'' (save the European [[Touchstone Home Entertainment]] Blu-ray which contains Buena Vista International) only opens with Cinergi. This logo was seen on pre-2006 prints of ''The Nightmare Before Christmas'', though newer remastered prints have it plastered with the 2006 Walt Disney Pictures logo starting with the 3D re-release. It can still be found on pre-2006 DVD and VHS releases of said film. | '''Availability''': Common, due to its longevity of nearly 20 years.
