'''Logo:''' On a black background, an orange "H" spins first, then comes a blue "E" spinning, a yellow "M" spinning, a green "D" spinning, a pinkish purple "A" spinning, a red "L" spinning and a blue "E" comes spinning last and they all turn white. After they turn white, the letters spread out that reveals "{{Font|Times New Roman|HEMDALE}}" and then a rainbow line appears between and "{{Font|Times New Roman|FILM CORPORATION}}" below the line. On some films, the word, "{{Font|Times New Roman|PICTURES}}" would be in place in the word "FILM". | '''Logo:''' On a black background, an orange "H" spins first, then comes a blue "E" spinning, a yellow "M" spinning, a green "D" spinning, a pinkish purple "A" spinning, a red "L" spinning and a blue "E" comes spinning last and they all turn white.

'''Availability:''' Rare. Retained on films such ''Hidden Agenda, Shag'', the [[GoodTimes Entertainment|GoodTimes]] DVD release of ''Wrangler'' (also known as ''Outback'' and originally known as ''Minnamurra''), and on the 1993 [[Hemdale Home Video]] VHS release of ''Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland''; it's unknown if this appears on the [[Discotek Media|Discotek]] Blu-Ray's U.S. opening credits bonus feature. On a few [[MGM Home Entertainment|MGM]] DVD releases of their output, such as ''Miracle Mile'', it is plastered with the 2001 [[Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios|MGM]] logo, though it is present on the recent Kino Lorber DVD and Blu-Ray releases. This appears on the 2000 MGM DVD release of ''At Close Range'', plastering the 1982 [[Orion Pictures]] logo, as well as on the TGG Direct DVD release and the Twilight Time Blu-ray after the MGM and Orion Pictures logos. This also plasters the Orion Pictures logo on all 1991-2001 home video releases of ''The Terminator'' (the Orion logo would be reinstated when the rights reverted to MGM). The silent variant can be seen on ''Vincent and Theo'' (though on a 2011 This TV airing, the jingle was present), and ''Bright Angel''. It was also spotted on a Hemdale Home Video reprint of ''Soultaker''. It also appeared on the original theatrical release of ''Cohen and Tate'', but the [[Nelson Entertainment]] video release omits it while the MGM DVD-R and [[Shout! Factory]] Blu-Ray release have the [[Nelson Entertainment]] logo in its place (though it is intact on the theatrical trailer on the DVD-R, the Blu-Ray's trailer has the Nelson logo with its jingle). It is unknown if the logo was spotted on the theatrical release of ''The Last Emperor''; the logo is not seen on the Nelson Entertainment VHS release of the said film. Additionally, this logo is also not seen on TV spots of said film as well, as they feature the 1981 [[Columbia Pictures]] logo instead. | '''Availability:''' Rare.
