Post-1997 prints of the original ''Star Wars'' trilogy now use the 1996 logo; however, 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment released pre-1997 prints of the original ''Star Wars'' trilogy on DVD for a limited period of time in 2006, as well as a box set in 2008. This logo was not seen on the original ''Indiana Jones'' films, ''Twice Upon a Time'', or ''Latino'', all of which used an in-credit text notice instead. It did, however, appear at the end of ''Radioland Murders'', albeit in a different font. The "remastered" version appears on the last four episodes of the 7th season of ''Star Wars: The Clone Wars''. | ||
