'''Editor's Note:''' This logo was generally extremely hard to find for the longest time, as most films VRP produced at the time did not use this logo and usually had the logo for the film's distributor. It wasn't until Stan HD's print of ''The Delinquents'' popped up, confirming what the logo was like. However, with the logo's discovery, many have found the inclusion of the lasers extremely pointless given there's no text for it to form.

'''Availability:''' For the most part, films produced by Village Roadshow that weren't distributed by them didn't use this logo, but the animated version is seen on ''The New Adventures of Flipper'' and ''Tarzan and the Lost City''. The still version can be seen on the mini-series ''Thorn Birds: The Missing Years'', ''Tales of the South Seas'', and the TV show ''Night Man'', among others. This also makes surprise appearances on ''Fat Pizza'' and ''December Boys''. Don't expect this to appear on ''Fortress'' (1992).

'''Editor's Note:''' A notably wasted logo due to only appearing on TV series produced by them from the era. However, it does make appearances on films such as the two mentioned above.

The later variant was first seen on the aforementioned title above and made its last appearance on ''Ocean's 8''.

'''Editor's Note:'''  Seemingly a boring logo compared to its predecessors. Only time will tell if they use the animation from the [[Village Roadshow Television]] logo in future films or not.
'''Editor's Note:'''  Although it can be seen as rather boring compared to the previous logos, the animated variant at least does add something to it.
