*July 12, 1994-January 30, 1998: A new arrangement of the extended CinemaScope fanfare, conducted by Bruce Broughton in the 20th Century Fox Scoring Stage (now the Newman Scoring Stage), in which the original 1935 fanfare was recorded. The orchestra is three times bigger, and the fanfare has more reverberation and larger brass/string sections than other fanfares.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20230625005550/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlcJKqeEE1w&feature=youtu.be</ref> The last release (officially) to use this fanfare was ''Great Expectations''. However, ''The Object of My Affection'' (1998), ''Wing Commander'' (1999), some prints of ''Lake Placid 2'' (2007), and German productions such as ''Krabat'' (2008) and ''John Rabe'' (2009), used this fanfare instead of the 1997 recording. An ''E! News'' story on Bruce's fanfare can be seen [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlcJKqeEE1w here]. | *July 12, 1994-January 30, 1998: A new arrangement of the extended CinemaScope fanfare, conducted by Bruce Broughton in the 20th Century Fox Scoring Stage (now the Newman Scoring Stage), in which the original 1935 fanfare was recorded.

*November 14, 1997, March 27, 1998-: A slower arrangement of the long TCF fanfare, as performed by the 20th Century Fox Studio Orchestra and conducted by David Newman, whose father Alfred Newman composed the original fanfare in 1933, as well as its extended counterpart in 1954. According to the Twenty Thousand Hertz podcast, this fanfare was recorded to coincide with the re-opening of the Newman Scoring Stage at the Fox Studio Lot in 1997. The first film to use this fanfare was 1997's ''Anastasia''; Fox films kept using the 1994 fanfare until January 1998 | *November 14, 1997, March 27, 1998-: A slower arrangement of the long TCF fanfare, as performed by the 20th Century Fox Studio Orchestra and conducted by David Newman, whose father Alfred Newman composed the original fanfare in 1933, as well as its extended counterpart in 1954.

*This logo was once removed from digital prints of ''Star Wars Episodes I-III'', ''V'' and ''VI'', and replaced with the fanfare in the Lucasfilm logo with a custom ''Star Wars'' theme, likely due to Disney's ownership of the franchise since 2012. However, following Disney's purchase of Fox, recent Disney+ and 2020 digital and home video prints have the Fox logo restored (excluding the registered trademark symbol and News Corporation byline), and may also appear on TV airings in the future. | *This logo was once removed from digital prints of ''Star Wars Episodes I-III'', ''V'' and ''VI'', and replaced with the fanfare in the Lucasfilm logo with a custom ''Star Wars'' theme, likely due to Disney's ownership of the franchise since 2012.

*The "Celebrating 75 Years" variant for TCF's 75th anniversary is a contemporary throwback of--and a contemporary homage to--the 20th Century Fox CinemaScope logo, where the 20th logo faded after 10 seconds into the CinemaScope logo; the overall branding for the "Celebrating 75 Years" anniversary including the text included in the logos was created in collaboration with Struck Librarian, an agency in Salt Lake City, Utah.
