'''Logo:''' On a black background, a {{Font color|blue|blue}} oblong moves from the right side of the screen to the left. As it shrinks to the left of the screen, the stacked text "TOUCHSTONE PICTURES" slides next to it. After the oblong morphs into a {{Font color|blue|blue}} ball, the text shines from right to left before hitting the ball. After the text hits the ball, the ball flashes and glows orange, gaining the thunderbolt from the last 2 logos on it. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, a {{Font color|blue|blue}} oblong moves from the right side of the screen to the left.

This version appeared on ''My Science Project'', ''Down and Out in Beverly Hills'', ''Off Beat'', ''Ruthless People'', and ''The Color of Money''. | * For the first two years of this logo's use, "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''FILMS'''}}" was seen instead of "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''PICTURES'''}}".

* 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''. However, some films still use the original version. | * In its later years, the logo was enhanced with a motion blur effect added when the logo slides, and a slightly larger shine.
