===Background=== | |||
Lionsgate Home Entertainment is the home video distribution arm of [[Lionsgate Films]]. At first most of their releases were only released by them in Canada, while in the United States, they licensed their films to Universal Pictures Home Entertainment for home video distribution, with the exception of ''Dogma'' being released by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. From 2008 to 2014, they were the American distributors for HiT Entertainment material. | |||

Editor's Note: It's a little bit odd how this logo was used until a year after Lionsgate changed their logo, but it's still a good logo nonetheless. | Editor's Note: It's a little bit odd how this logo was used until a year after Lionsgate changed their logo, but it's still a good logo nonetheless. | ||
