PolyGram Filmed Entertainment: Difference between revisions

* There is an earlier version where the words are already faded in, and the colors are completely inverted.

* On some movies, "FILM DISTRIBUTION" replaces "FILMED ENTERTAINMENT". This can be spotted on the 1998 film, ''Le Clone''.

* There is a scope variant where the logo is cropped from 1.85 to 2.35 to fit the aspect ratio. This can be spotted on ''Moonlight and Valentino'', ''French Kiss'' (which was a co-production with [[20th Century Fox]]) and the theatrical trailers for ''The Game'' (1997).

* A very rare variation of this logo exists where the text "FILMED ENTERTAINMENT DISTRIBUTION" appeared underneath the PolyGram name, the red line is longer and it flashes afterwards with no shining.

* On a September 27, 2004 French airing of ''Romeo is Bleeding'' (1993) on M6, there is an ultra rare variant where the entire logo is in a different font. The line also doesn't flash or shine.

* On ''The Price of Love'', the text "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" is shown above the logo.

* The 1999 [[Universal Studios Home Entertainment]] UK DVD of ''Twelve Monkeys'' uses the last half of the fanfare from the 1990 Universal logo, due to an editing mistake.

* On ''Bean: The Ultimate Disaster Movie'' (or ''Bean: The Movie'' in the USA), a ding can be heard when the logo flashes, part of the film’s opening score. It can also be heard on the film’s deleted scenes featurette ''Bean Scenes Unseen''.

* Found on most 1992 to 1997 PolyGram films, most notably ''Posse'', ''Romeo is Bleeding'', ''Jason's Lyric'', ''Four Weddings and a Funeral'' (it was left intact on the 2007 MGM Region 4 DVD release, proceeded by the 1986 MGM logo), ''Dead Man Walking'', ''Kalifornia'' (1997 [[PolyGram Video]] DVD and 2000 [[MGM]] DVD releases only, the 1994 PolyGram Video VHS release and current prints have this logo removed), ''A Gnome Named Gnorm'' (1994 PolyGram Video VHS release only, plastered by the 2005 [[Lionsgate Films]] logo on current prints due to PolyGram only handling that home media release and Lionsgate owning the film through producer [[Vestron Pictures]]), ''Fargo'', ''The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert'' (but not on the 1995 PolyGram Video VHS release) and ''Bean'', among others.

* Also seen on United Kingdom trailers for PolyGram films, some which can be found on VHS releases in the United States by PolyGram Video.

* Appears on the PolyGram Video United Kingdom VHS, some 1996 US VHS prints, and 1999 MGM US DVD of ''The Usual Suspects''.

* This logo is not on ''Shallow Grave'', the Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher ''Batman'' films (which PolyGram gets credited as a producer on due to Jon Peters and Peter Guber producing the films and PolyGram receiving a portion of the films' earnings as part of Peters's and Guber's departure from the studio), ''The Matchmaker'' or any pre-1992 PolyGram films.

* It is unknown if this appears on any video prints of ''The Basketball Diaries'', which they acquired through its purchase of ''Island World'' a few months before its theatrical release.

* On newer prints of post-1996 films, and pre-1996 films that they own, this is plastered with the 1997 Universal logo.

* Strangely, this is seen on current prints of ''The Borrowers'' (which originally used the next logo) when it last aired on Disney XD, Discovery Family and Netflix and on the Universal DVD as well (after the 1997 Universal logo respectively). This also happens on a 16th April 2001 UK airing of ''Spice World: The Movie'' (1997) on BBC One as well.

* The inverted variant can be seen on ''The Jacksons: An American Dream'' on TV One, VH1 and VH1 Classic, although it's plastered by the short version of the 1997 Universal logo on BET and Centric (now BET Her) broadcasts, the Motown DVD releases and Tubi's print.

* This logo made a surprise appearance during the documentary ''Return to Shining Time: Your Ticket to Thomas and the Magic Railroad'', which can be seen as a bonus feature on the 2020 Blu-Ray/DVD copy of ''Thomas and the Magic Railroad''.
