*Debuted on ''Mickey, Donald and Goofy: The Three Musketeers''. This can be seen on [[Walt Disney Animation Studios]] releases since ''Chicken Little'', as well as many spinoffs, a few non-animated films, a load of Disney Channel original movies, and TV shows from the Disney Branded Television networks.

*This also appears on Pixar releases starting with ''Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales'', ''Cars 2'', and the 2011 reissue of ''The Incredibles''. However, the only Pixar releases not to use this were ''Toy Story 3'' (released the same day as ''Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales'') and ''Onward'', especially the latter due to not having previews at all, though the Blu-Ray version did include them. It also didn't appear on Pixar films prior to 2010 as they go to the previews manually. The most recent Pixar release to use this was ''Lightyear'', released on September 13, 2022, despite no bonus features at the end.

*Most 2000's Disney DVDs with FastPlay use menus that have icons for the selections (like [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_1Y9Kw8bzc these] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0NaTYv0Pjc for] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfEif3wnwJg example]) while 2010s and 2020s releases have iconless menus (like [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rb2W2p96EE these] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C8ElHSI-4Q for] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJpsO7om7-c example.])
*Most 2000's Disney DVDs with FastPlay has a feature named EasyFind, whichuse menus that have icons for the selections (like [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_1Y9Kw8bzc these] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0NaTYv0Pjc for] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfEif3wnwJg example]), while 2010s and 2020s releases remove EasyFind, which results the icons to be removed.

*Notably, the only three instances where it actually did what it advertised were the 2009 Big Wave Edition DVD of ''Lilo & Stitch'', ''Incredibles 2'', and ''Zombies 2'' (due to those releases not having previews, except ''Incredibles 2'' which has them at the end).

*This also appears on later ''Mickey Mouse Clubhouse'' DVDs (save for ''Pop Star Minnie''), ''Super Buddies'' and ''Luca'', both released on 2012-August 3, 2021 respectively, despite having no bonus features to speak of. This was also the case for the Pixar films ''Soul'' (released on March 23, 2021), ''Turning Red'' (released on May 3, 2022) and ''Lightyear'' (released on September 13, 2022), but the bonus features do not play at the end, even though they still have a bonus feature: their commentaries.

'''Legacy:''' While this logo is decently animated, the enhancement remains rather infamous for how it claims to play the movie "fast" and "automatically", when it really just plays the movie after a ton of trailers (averaging between 8-12 minutes' worth, less after the mid-2010s), as well as the logo's speedy nature making it difficult to immediately hit the main menu option. This inspired numerous articles from disgruntled parents, and later became a minor internet meme. The logo's abrupt nature was also known to scare young children, earning it the nickname of "Your First Panic Attack" as a result. The Chinese variant basically just has the Chinese name chyroned on the disc without any more effects. It was also briefly rumored as discontinued in August 2021, but was later proven false in early 2022 (and it's currently unknown if it will officially retire).

Possible due to Disney's complants about FastPlay, UHDs has a similar option called UltraPlay, which comes closer to pulling off the intended effect of FastPlay.
