'''Variants:'''

* On <u>''Gremlins''</u>, the color scheme used is the same as the standard logo, but with the "moon" colored {{color|blue}}; "{{color|red|AN}}" is above the logo, and "{{color|red|PRESENTATION}}" is below it.

** A similar variant appears on <u>''West Side Story'' (2021)</u>, but with the moon colored white.

* On <u>''Men in Black II''</u>, the logo is thicker. "ENTERTAINMENT" is also in a different font.

* On <u>''Fandango''</u>, the logo scrolls up over the ending scene of the film.

'''Visuals:''' There is a close-up of the moon, which zooms backward until it is on the left side of the screen. Right before the moon stops in its place, the silhouette of a young boy on a bicycle with an alien in its basket (Elliott and E.T. from ''E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial'') slowly flies in front of the moon from the left side of the moon's border, stopping in the middle (even when the bicycle stops, the wheels continue to move). At the same time, two {{color|orange}}/{{color|blue}} stripes move in from both sides of the screen. The stripe that comes in from the bottom left side places itself right underneath the moon, while the stripe that comes in from the top right side places itself near the top of the moon (this creates a small space to the right of the moon bordered by the stripes on the top and the bottom). When the moon and stripes are in place, the word "{{color|blue|{{font|optima|'''AMBLIN'''}}}}" (once again, in Optima) appears in a strange fade-in (shadows form the {{color|blue}} letters one at a time, referred to as a "shadow wipe"/"refracting prism"). When the word "{{color|blue|{{font|optima|'''AMBLIN'''}}}}" is finally revealed, the wheels begin to stop and smaller {{color|orange}} text appears under the bottom {{color|orange}}/{{color|blue}} lines that reads "{{color|orange|ENTERTAINMENT}}" in spaced out letters to fit the width of the bottom line and a thin font.

* On ''The Making of The Money Pit'', after the logo forms, the copyright notice which reads "copyright ©1986 Amblin Entertainment and Universal Studios" fades in at the bottom of the screen.

'''Audio:''' A light orchestral theme composed by John Williams. This was used on ''Young Sherlock Holmes'', ''The Color Purple'', ''The Money Pit'', and the 1987 theatrical reissue (as well as the 1988 VHS and the 2012/2017 Blu-ray/DVD releases) of ''E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial''.

'''Visuals:''' Same concept as before, only CGI is used, and the moon and silhouette are three-dimensional. The moon swooshes down and hovers to the left of the screen, while Elliot and E.T. fly on the screen from behind, making an immediate right in front of the moon and parking to form the graphic. Also, the word "{{color|blue|{{font|optima|'''AMBLIN'''}}}}" no longer has the strange shadow wipe effect, and instead uses a more gradual fade-in from the left, and the rest of the logo (the {{color|orange}} and {{color|blue}} bars and text now have a texture) fades in. The finishing background is now {{color|red}}-gradient black (evening sky). If the viewer looks closely, the viewer can see E.T.'s finger glowing.

*On <u>''Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous''</u>, there is a custom variation, where it picks off where the [[Universal Pictures]]/[[DreamWorks Animation Television]] logo combo left off; we pan to the left of the DreamWorks logo-shaped continent to reveal an Amblin logo-shaped archipelago, where the camera then zooms underneath Elliot's cape to start the show.

*On <u>''The Fabelmans''</u>, the logo's animation starts over the Universal Pictures logo, but it fades to its background when the logo is nearly done forming.

*On <u>''A Dog's Purpose''</u>, the short version of the Universal Pictures logo crossfades to the abridged finishing animation of the logo.

*On <u>''Finch''</u>, there is an enhanced version of the logo. The moon is blue, just like the 1985 logo, used on earlier classic films. Also, the "AMBLIN" text is more three-dimensional and sleeker than usual.
