20th Century Studios: Difference between revisions

* In 1990, the text was shortened to either "Released by Twentieth Century Fox" or "Produced and Released by Twentieth Century Fox".

'''Availability:''' Seen on films from Fox from this time-period. During its first few years in use, this was used in tandem with the 1953 logo.  

*This also plasters the 1953 logo on the video release of ''Chu Chu and the Philly Flash'', current prints of ''Thunder and Lightning'' (with the abridged CinemaScope fanfare), ''Wizards'', the director's cut of ''Alien'', ''My Bodyguard'', ''Revenge of the Nerds'', ''Bad Medicine'', ''Moving Violations'', ''Wall Street'', and ''Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise''.

*Fox plastered/updated the 1st and 2nd logos with this on some colorized versions of its films in the 1980s, such as ''Miracle on 34th Street'' (1947; the original logo is restored on newer colorized prints), and Technicolor films such as ''Halls of Montezuma''.

*This also plastered the 3rd logo on late 1980s/early 1990s NBC airings of ''The Sound of Music''.

*This can also be seen on international prints of ''Crocodile Dundee'' (except in Australia and New Zealand, where the film was released by [[Hoyts Distribution (1978-1993)|Hoyts Distribution]]), ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze'' and ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III'' (except in Hong Kong, where it was released by [[Golden Harvest]]), as well as on the trailer for ''Deck the Halls''.

*When ''History of the World: Part I'' (one of the last films to use the 2nd logo) aired on AMC in the mid-2000s, the extended version of this logo popped up at the very end. Later airings used the current [[20th Television]] logo instead. A similar occurrence happened when AMC aired ''Independence Day'' in 2008.

*Post-2007 prints of ''Die Hard 2'' replace this with the next logo (except for Amazon Prime Video and Syfy's prints, where it's left intact, albeit with the 1997 fanfare).

*The Hong Kong 1995 P&S LD of ''Return of the Jedi'' removed this in favor of the CBS-FOX Video logo.

*The black and white variant of this logo appears on some US prints of ''The Sicilian'' (it doesn't appear on the [[Vestron Video]] VHS).

*Other Fox releases of [[Morgan Creek Entertainment|Morgan Creek]] films have this logo removed on [[Media Home Entertainment]] releases and current prints, but it's retained on the CBS/Fox Video and Fox Video releases of ''The Exorcist III'', ''Young Guns II'' and ''Pacific Heights'', as well as Tubi's print of ''Nightbreed'' (the theatrical cut). It is also preserved on the original 1989 Vestron Video VHS of ''Young Guns''.

*Older VHS, Laserdisc, VCD, and DVD copies of ''Speed'' plaster this with the next logo (which was originally intended to debut on the theatrical release of the film); however, it's retained on the Blu-ray and USA Network's print of the film (and presumably Syfy's as well).

*[[International Video Entertainment|IVE]] releases of films from [[Gladden Entertainment Corporation]], along with DVDs from [[Live Entertainment]] and [[Artisan Entertainment]], generally preserved this logo, but it was removed on the 1987 Media Home Entertainment release of ''Mannequin'' (replaced by the [[Cannon Films]] logo as part of a legal settlement between Cannon and Gladden), the 1991 Live Home Video release of ''Mannequin 2: On the Move'', the Shout! Factory Blu-ray release of ''Millennium'' (1989), the [[Olive Films]] Blu-ray releases of ''Mannequin'' and ''Mannequin 2: On the Move'', and the 1996 [[Avid Home Entertainment]] re-release of ''Weekend at Bernie's''. It's preserved on the Vestron Video VHS and Shout! Factory Blu-ray of ''The Sicilian''. HBO's current print of ''Mannequin'' also preserves the Fox logo.

*It was also seen on the [[HBO/Cannon Video]] VHS release of ''Highlander''.

*The [[Warner Home Video]] release of ''The King of Comedy'' plasters this with the [[Regency Enterprises]] logo, while the earlier RCA/Columbia release skips to the opening credits, and even blacks out the closing title. It is, however, preserved on all releases since Fox acquired the video rights to the early Regency library.

*This logo appears on international theatrical prints of ''Brazil'', including the Italian release distributed by [[Cecchi Gori Group]], but most international home video releases either skip to the opening title card or plaster it with the [[Weintraub Entertainment Group]] logo, while the Fox Blu-rays use the 1994 logo.

*It is currently unknown whether this logo appeared on international releases of ''Legend''.

*Most US home video releases of ''The Princess Bride'' do not have this logo (with the exception of the 1998 MGM VHS), as 20th Century Fox only held North American theatrical and television rights. As a result, it can be seen on U.S. TV prints of the film, including the 2021 Disney+ print. Amazon Prime Video prints use MGM masters, and therefore plaster this with the MGM logo. It's also retained on the film's current UK DVD releases and the Australian two-disc deluxe edition, despite the film being re-released by [[Lionsgate Films|Lionsgate]] there.

*This logo also appeared on U.S. theatrical prints of ''The Name of the Rose''. However, all home video prints of the film just cut straight into the movie.

*The 1979 theme variant makes an appearance at the end of Sony Movie Channel's broadcast of the 1974 TV movie ''Death Cruise'' (a Spelling-Goldberg production), before the SPT logo. This is also intact on Crackle's print of the title.

*This appeared on international theatrical prints of ''Conan the Barbarian'' (1982), but current international prints have the 1997 logo in its place. It was, however, retained on a recent Hits Movies airing.

*This logo was used on trailers for ''True Lies'', ''The Pagemaster'', and ''Miracle on 34th Street'' (1994), all of which ended up using the next logo.

*It is intact on the current UK DVD and Blu-ray release of ''Robin Hood: Men in Tights'' by Fabulous Films, which was released under license from Sony, which is taken from a Fox-owned master instead of a Sony-owned master.

*It is preserved on the Vestron Video VHS of ''Fort Apache, The Bronx''.

*It may have been seen on U.S. theatrical prints of ''Streets of Gold'', ''The Manhattan Project'', ''The Morning After'', ''Power'', ''The Boy Who Could Fly'', ''Big Shots'', ''Dreamscape'', ''Fire & Ice'' (1983), ''Silkwood'', ''Prizzi's Honor'', ''Plenty'', and ''Space Camp'', but home video releases show no evidence.

*It was also preserved on the Vestron VHS releases of ''Mr. Mom'', ''The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai'', ''National Lampoon's Class Reunion'', ''The Flamingo Kid'', ''Loving Couples'', and ''Impulse'' (1984). It's skipped on the Vestron VHS of ''Blame it on Rio'' but the 2000 MGM Movietime VHS retains it.
