'''Visuals:''' Similar to the 1985 Thorn EMI/HBO Video logo (wall of lights, comets, blue background and the logo itself is similar), but there's a lot more action. A wall of {{color|blue}} lights opens, much like the Thorn EMI/HBO logo. Against these walls, a chrome "HBO" (in its corporate font) logo slides down one, and the word "CANNON" also in chrome (in Cannon's corporate font; this font was not used in Cannon's on-screen logos at the time), slides down the other. When they meet in the center, a glowing white star takes them in, and the walls rotate to face the camera as the camera pans in. When the camera pans in, two comets streak on two of the lights making up the wall, and when they pass, there is a white HBO logo and a white box containing the word "CANNON" rotating from the bottom to face the camera. The logos zoom back, with HBO zooming back to become smaller than the white box containing "CANNON", as "VIDEO" zooms out (in an effect similar to the 1980 [[Telepictures Productions|Telepictures Corporation]] "Shadows" logo). Two comets streak above and below the logo to form lines, like in the Thorn EMI/HBO Video logo. | '''Visuals:''' Similar to the 1985 Thorn EMI/HBO Video logo (wall of lights, comets, blue background and the logo itself is similar), but there's a lot more action.
