'''Logo:''' We see some close-ups of a circular stage-like 3-D structure with the FX logo on one side: a giant "'''M'''" is on the other. Then we zoom out to reveal that the bottom of the structure says "'''MOVIES FROM FOX'''".
 
'''Variants:''' There were other variants where the structure was in a different color, depending on the genre of the following film:
* {{color|limegreen|Green}}: Comedy
* {{color|dodgerblue|Blue}}: Musical 
* {{color|darkmagenta|Purple}}: Drama 
* {{color|Gray}}: Action 
* {{color|Red}}: Romance 
* {{color|Orange}}: Best of
 
'''Technique:''' CGI animation. This was done by Hatmaker Films in Boston, MA.
 
'''Music/Sounds:''' Depends on the variant, but generally a remix of the Cinemascope version of the [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]] theme.
 
* Comedy: A cartoony, kazoo version of the fanfare with other cartoon sound effects.
* Musical: A jazzy and upbeat, big band version of the fanfare.
* Drama: A suspenseful, mysterious-sounding version of the fanfare using woodwing stings.
* Action: A dramatic version of the fanfare.
* Romance: A slower-paced, romantic version of the fanfare using violins.
* Best of: A more orchestral and prestigious version of the fanfare.
 
'''Availability:''' Extinct.

'''Logo:''' We see the regular 20th Century Fox structure on its side, but then the camera pans and it reveals that the wordmark is replaced by "{{color|gold|'''FOX MOVIE CHANNEL'''}}" against an {{color|orange}} background. As the camera sits in its position, it brightens and the byline "MOVIES FROM 20TH CENTURY FOX" fades in below.
'''Variants:'''
* Sometimes, it lacks the byline.
* There is a variant where various TCF logos appear (which include the ''Silent Movie'' and ''Cannonball Run'' variants), until we see the Fox Movie Channel structure in the style of the 1994 logo on a night background.
* A variant exists that was used as a bumper, which starts with the [[Twentieth Century Pictures, Inc.|Twentieth Century Pictures]] logo, until it flashes to the version that succeeded it, and we go through most of the Fox logos that had been used up until that point. Then we see the FMC logo as usual.
'''Technique:''' CGI animation. This logo was animated by Fabrice Maurel, while Flip Your Lid Animation animated the variants.
'''Music/Sounds:''' A remixed version of the 20th Century Fox fanfare.
'''Music/Sounds Variants:'''
* The variant had a synth drone sound, followed by the 1994 TCF fanfare.
* Another variant had a heavy drum-and-bass remix of the fanfare.
* The Comedy bumper had a comedic tune played by organs, followed by a redone version of the [[20th Century Fox Television]] fanfare.
* The Action bumper had a menacing and suspenseful fanfare, followed by another remixed version of the fanfare.
* The Fox Prime bumper had an extended and more majestic version of the fanfare.
'''Availability:''' Extinct.
