* Sometimes, it had a dark and dramatic piano tune with an ominous synth. This was used on ''Dream Lover'', ''Spike Lee's Drop Squad'', ''Foreign Student'', ''I'm Not Rappaport'', and ''Double Dragon''.

'''Availability:''' The original version is uncommon. Appears on Gramercy films from the era, including ''Dazed and Confused'', ''Grace of My Heart'', ''Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie'' (but not on the 1998 [[Image Entertainment]] DVD), ''Mallrats'', U.S. theatrical prints of ''Double Dragon'' (removed from most home media releases, including the MCA/Universal VHS, though it's also intact on Amazon Prime Video print; might also be on the recent Blu-Ray by MVD Visual), and ''Commandments'', among others. The Gramercy/PolyGram combo is preserved on [[Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios|MGM]] prints of ''Dream Lover'', ''Posse'', ''A Home of Our Own'', ''Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh'', ''Romeo Is Bleeding'', ''Canadian Bacon'', and ''Dead Man Walking''. In the case of PolyGram films, the print logo appears on VHS/DVD covers of some of their films. It is supposedly intact on some streaming prints of ''Fargo''. It is unknown if this appears on any prints of Steven Soderbergh's ''King of the Hill'' (1993). The enhanced version is extremely rare. It can be found on the PolyGram VHS of ''Going All the Way'' and some R2 PAL DVDs of ''Thursday'' and ''The Last Days of Disco''. The still version can be found on several U.S. PolyGram trailers from the time, such as ''Bean'', ''The Big Lebowski'', ''Elizabeth'', ''The Last Days of Disco'', and ''Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels'', among others. Don't expect to see this on most PolyGram features released after September 12, 1997, as most releases use international prints which have the 1997 [[PolyGram Filmed Entertainment|PolyGram Filmed Entertainment]] logo. ''The Last Days of Disco'' is an exception, as earlier releases retain this and the [[Castle Rock Entertainment]] logo which follows. Current prints of said film, however, plaster the combo with the [[Focus Features]] logo.
