* On ''MouseHunt'', the theme is a different orchestration and the guitar section at the end is replaced with a French horn playing the same notes (which was used for the short version of the 1996 [[DreamWorks Interactive]] logo). The sound of the bobber hitting the water is also slightly delayed, and the fanfare starts earlier. | * On ''MouseHunt'', the theme is a different orchestration and the guitar section at the end is replaced with a French horn playing the same notes (which was used for the short version of the 1996 [[DreamWorks Interactive]] logo).

This may have either been an error in production or distribution or it could be intentional since the opening credits were automatically skipped if you select another language on the DVD and it was muted so it couldn't affect the audio pause during it. | ||
* On some films, it is either silent or the opening theme of the film is used. The splashing CGI SFX can sometimes still remain in the audio; although it might be changed to a different splashing sound effect, depending on the film. | * On some films, it is either silent or the opening theme of the film is used.

* On the US DVD release of ''Evolution'', when you select the "English 2.0" track, the 1998 common fanfare for the 1993 [[Columbia Pictures]] logo will be heard instead. This most likely boils down to the fact the 2.0 English track from the Sony-owned international master was mistakenly used. | * On the US DVD release of ''Evolution'', when you select the "English 2.0" track, the 1998 common fanfare for the 1993 [[Columbia Pictures]] logo will be heard instead.

'''Availability:''' Very common. It premiered on ''The Peacemaker'' (which is also DreamWorks' first film) and has been used in nearly every DreamWorks film ever since. Was seen on some 2001 Region 4 DVD releases as well and pre-2004 DreamWorks Animation films, from ''Antz'' to ''Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas''. This logo preceded the 1997 [[BBC Studios Home Entertainment|BBC Video]] logo on the [[DreamWorks Home Entertainment]] DVD release of three ''Wallace & Gromit'' short films, it was later cut on future prints of these shorts. Current prints of the studio's animated films and pre-2008 live-action films may have this logo preceded (or plastered) by a [[ Paramount Pictures]], [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]], [[Universal Pictures]], and/or a [[DreamWorks Animation]] logo. The logo made a surprise reappearance on the games for ''Shark Tale'' and ''Shrek 2'', released in 2004, despite these two films using the 2004 DreamWorks Animation logo. | '''Availability:''' Very common.

'''Legacy:''' An iconic logo that uses an effective combination of 2-D and 3-D animation, with the music also being a highlight, all contributing to the logo's longevity, having been in use for over 25 years and counting. Some, however, dislike the logo, accusing it of being plagiarism by Spielberg of Michael Jackson's Neverland Valley Ranch logo used without Jackson's permission or credit, something accused by Jackson's family themselves. | '''Legacy:''' An iconic logo that uses an effective combination of 2-D and 3-D animation, with the music also being a highlight, all contributing to the logo's longevity, having been in use for over 25 years and counting.
