'''Logo:''' | '''Logo:''' The 1982 [[Embassy Communications|Embassy Television]] logo plays, but freezes before the text can show up. Right after, the logo zooms out to reveal a filmstrip on a cloudy sky background as the filmstrip, which is at the bottom-left of the screen, then goes up to the top-right. The filmstrip also carries the words "EMBASSY", "NIGHT", "AT THE" and "MOVIES", all stacked on top of each other. All words except "AT THE" are in a bold font. As the filmstrip finishes going up, the cloudy sky turns into a black background with some light shining on the floor, which has a red grid texture on it. The filmstrip now creates a circle from left to right, and now shows a bunch of still photos of the starring actors from the movie that is about to air appears. After the announcer finishes mentioning the actors, the filmstrip switches to other stills from the movie as the movie's logo appears in the top the positions itself in the center. | ||
'''FX/SFX:''' | '''FX/SFX:''' The filmstrip and the background change. | ||
