20th Century Home Entertainment/Clip-On Library

1st Bumper (1987-1990)
Bumper: It's considered to be the same as the Feature Presentation bumper, but the clapboard initially has the CBS/FOX logo (without the word "VIDEO") in it, which later fades into the blue-light blue gradient italic words "Times New Roman".

Variants:
 * There is a variant for Playhouse Video releases, which is set on a yellow-blue gradient background, the text is white, and the Playhouse Video logo is shown instead of the CBS/FOX Video logo.
 * On Key Video releases such as History of the World Part 1, the bumper is on a light blue-pink gradient background, the text isn't italicized, and the Key Video logo is shown instead of the CBS/FOX Video logo.
 * A rare variant exists in which the clapperboard is light blue and the words "Preview of Coming Attractions" wipe onto it in a script font. The background is a purple-dark purple gradient. Its only known appearance is on the 1988 VHS of Predator.
 * The Playhouse Video and Key Video versions also exist in black and white.

FX/SFX: The amazing shining and the clapping.

Music/Sounds: Bill St. James saying "CBS/Fox Video presents, a home video preview.", followed by a clap.

Music/Sounds Variants: The Playhouse Video variant has the announcer saying "Playhouse Video presents, a home video preview."
 * The Predator variant has the announcer saying "The following films will soon be available on videocassette, from CBS/FOX Video.”
 * The Key Video variant has the announcer saying "Key Video presents, a home video preview."

Availability: Rare. It appears on certain CBS/Fox Video, Key Video and Playhouse Video releases from the 1980's such as the original 1988 VHS releases of A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon, Overboard, and Oklahoma!, among others. The short CBS/Fox version can be seen on the original 1989 VHS of A Fish Called Wanda, while the short Playhouse Video version can be seen on the 1987 Playhouse Video re-release of Fairy Tale Theater: Cinderella. It also appears on an alternate VHS print of the original release of Die Hard (other prints instead use the third ID).

2nd Bumper (1987, Star Wars Variant)
Bumper: The 3rd CBS/Fox Video logo animates as normal, but then once it finishes, it electrocutes, and then the viewer's screen goes to a space background. An X-Wing from the original Star Wars trilogy flies from the bottom of the screen, and centers itself on it, before doing a barrel roll and zooming off into the distance. Then, another X-Wing appears from the bottom left of the screen. It shoots at an asteroid that zooms in, also from the top right of the screen. The asteroid explodes, and then a white sphere comes in (again, from the top right) and positions itself on the center of the screen, while the Star Wars logo, in silver, zooms out and settles on it. A ring, also silver, with the text "THE FIRST TEN YEARS" appears, sparkling in the process. Then, two small rectangles (yet again silver) position themselves on both sides of the ring, with the one on the left containing the year that Star Wars was first released (1977), and the one on the right containing the year of the trilogy's 10th anniversary (1987). The completed Star Wars 10th Anniversary logo then sparkles, as the space background continues to slowly move past, before the bumper freezes, and then fades out.

FX/SFX: The noticeable animation.

Music/Sounds: Begins with a few notes of the trilogy's end credits theme, and then an electrical zap sound. Then, there is a whooshing sound, followed by a note that is being held, along with other sound effects that accompany the actions. After that is an additional six notes of music, and then it ends with Bill St. James saying "CBS/Fox Video is proud to present a preview of the complete Star Wars trilogy".

Availability: Rare. It was seen on the 1987 re-releases of the Star Wars trilogy.

FX/SFX: None.

Availability: Very common. Seen on certain CBS/Fox Video, Fox Video, and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment releases from 1988-1999. The "Theatrical Preview" version can be seen on the majority of Fox tapes from the era, such as Vital Signs, Rapid Fire, Predator 2, Young Guns II, Hot Shots!, Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: The Movie, Airheads, Speed, and Anastasia. The "Home Video Preview" version can be seen on the 1990 VHS of The Abyss and the 1991 VHS of Pacific Heights.

The last tapes that used the original version of the home video bumper were the 1992 VHS tape of A Garfield Christmas and the '92 releases of the Star Wars Trilogy (Star Wars, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, and From Star Wars to Jedi). The last tape to use these bumpers in general is the 1999 VHS of Ever After: A Cinderella Story. Some titles like Once Upon a Forst and The Pagemaster don't use clip-ons.

4th Bumper (1996-January 23, 2001)

 * Behind-the-Scenes Featurette

Variant: On the 1999 VHS releases of Entrapment and Best Laid Plans, a different font is used.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare, as this was only used sparsely before being replaced with the next bumper. The first tape to feature any of the non-Widescreen Series clip-ons was The Siege, and the last to have them was Me, Myself & Irene.

5th Bumper (March 20, 2001-December 13, 2005)
Bumper: On a black background, we see one of the following clip-ons in a white Compacta font:
 * COMING SOON TO THEATERS

 * NOW IN THEATERS (This can be found on Shallow Hal)
 * COMING TO VIDEO & DVD

Variants:
 * In late 2003, three of the clip-ons were changed to "NOW AVAILABLE ON DVD & VIDEO", "COMING SOON TO DVD & VIDEO" and "AVAILABLE TO OWN ON DVD & VIDEO".
 * On the 2001 VHS releases of Bedazzled (2000) and Bootmen, the clip-ons are in a thinner font and in lowercase.
 * On the 2003 VHS of X2: X-Men United, the clip-ons are in a metallic font.
 * Releases from 2005 have a slighty different font.

FX/SFX: The clip-on fading in and out.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Fairly common. This can be found on many 2001-05 Fox videocassettes such as Bedazzled (200), Bootmen, Shallow Hal, Planet of the Apes (2001), Joe Somebody, Ice Age, Like Mike,Cheaper by the Dozen (2003), Super Troopers, Garfield: The Movie, I, Robot, Fat Albert, Fever Pitch, Bratz: Rock Angelz, Robots, and Rebound. The standard variant was first used on Men of Honor, and this ident in general was last used on the 2005 VHS of Roll Bounce (which is also the last Fox VHS ever released). Don't expect to find these on any DVDs from Fox, as the trailers are different.

Final Note: DVDs and Blu-Rays of Fox material contained different trailers. This continued until Ferdinand on March 13, 2018, which was the last regular Fox release to do so. The only Fox releases with previews after the Disney acquisition were Stuber, Missing Link (an Annapurna Pictures film), Ready or Not, and The Call of the Wild (2020), as most others post-2018 like Ad Astra, Spies in Disguise, Free Guy, and Ron's Gone Wrong have no previews.

1st Bumper (1983-1984)
Bumper: On a black background, we see several rectangular white boxes zoom in until they take up most of the screen. A green light can be seen in the centre of the box "tunnel". We then fade to the second half of the 1983 CBS/Fox Video animate. When it finishes, the red words "TIME IN" in Arial zoom up and settle in the middle of the CBS/Fox logo. Eleven pink diagonal lines then draw in, in front of the CBS/Fox logo, but behind "TIME IN". We then cut to various clips of the five movies being advertised, in the middle of a gray background with coloured lines changing colour per film. We then cut to the last half of the CBS/Fox logo animating again, before going into the first trailer.

Variants:
 * The closing of the featurette just features the beginning from "TIME IN" zooming up, and the lines drawing.
 * On The Rocky Horror Picture Show, the clips are not described, and it skips to the first trailer.
 * A rare version exists on some trailer tapes from the time, where the box tunnel animation plays at a later point. Then, instead of "TIME IN" zooming up, the red words "THE HIT LIST" in a Typewriter font enter with the same animation as "TIME IN".
 * At the end of the tape, we fade from a more blurred version of the CBS/Fox Video logo. Then, as it comes into focus, "THE HIT LIST" zooms up during the logo's animation.

FX/SFX: As well as the logo's animation, the rest is pretty much all Scanimate.

Music/Sounds: A couple of synth drumbeats play as the boxes zoom in. When the CBS/Fox logo animates, the music segues into a downbeat synth score with a male announcer (John Sachs) saying, "Hello, and welcome to another great movie from CBS/Fox. And to Time In, where we tell you about five other great movies you won't want to miss." He then describes the five films being advertised, which varies by tape. After this, he says, "Movies in a box, from CBS/Fox." At the end of the featurette, the last bars of the synth tune play, with Sachs saying, "And now, on with the show."

Music/Sounds Variant: For the Hit List variant, the same music plays in the background, but an oddly American-accented announcer says, "CBS/Fox welcomes you to the latest edition of the Hit List, and to a great new range of titles for the Spring." The closing of this bumper has the announcer say, before the first trailer, "All-new releases from CBS/Fox!", and finally, after the last trailer, he says, "Go for the name you know. Movies in a box from CBS/Fox."

Availability: Rare. Seen on a few pre-cert UK VHS tapes from CBS/Fox Video, such as The Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Verdict, The Empire Strikes Back, Table for Five, and Porky's II. Possibly appears on other CBS/Fox releases from the time as well.

2nd Bumper (1989-1994)
Bumper: On a black background, we see the text "COMING TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU."

Variants:
 * On rare occasions, the text is in a different font.
 * Depending on the tape, the text may end with "SOON", have multiple periods at the end, or even be arranged differently.
 * An early version has the text in a yellow color, lowercase, and italicized, against a blue background. This version appears on Die Hard.
 * A special "now available" variant appears on Keeper of the City, where the text is presented like the above variant, but in all caps and against the normal black background. It reads ""THIS IS MY LIFE'' IS AVAILABLE FROM FOXVIDEO"".

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Uncommon. This can be seen on UK rental releases such as Point Break, Home Alone, Mrs. Doubtfire, Predator 2, Alien 3, Pacific Heights, and Sleeping with the Enemy, appearing before trailers for theatrical releases.

3rd Bumper (1997-2000)
Bumper: We start off with a white flash, which zooms out to reveal 4 /white filmstrips rotating on a dark gray background. Then the words "VIDEO", "RELEASES", "TO", and "RENT" in a red Helvetica font also zoom into the bottom. Once the words have finished zooming, a light zooms into the camera that turns into a splash of light, which fades onto a different dark gray background with a  TV set with the aforementioned words floating inside. Then, the bordered circle zooms out transitioning to black.

Variants:
 * Sometimes, "RENT" is replaced with "BUY", the words are in green, and the bordered circle zooms in transitioning to black.
 * A variant exists for promoting theatrical releases, with the words in blue, reading "CINEMA", "RELEASES", "COMING", and "SOON". The TV set is replaced with filmstrips.

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A dramatic synth-driven action theme, complete with whooshes once the words zoom in, which ends with a deep THX-like chord and more whooshes.

Availability: Seen on 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, later Guild Home Video and Pathé releases in the UK, such as James and the Giant Peach, The Blair Witch Project, Speed 2: Cruise Control, The X-Files: One Son and the 1998 rental tape of The Fifth Element.

Variant: Very rarely, the Fox structure will be removed and the clip-on will appear in its place. This has been spotted with the "COMING SOON TO CINEMAS, CHECK NEWSPAPERS FOR DETAILS" clip-on.

FX/SFX: It is the same as the Feature Presentation bumper.

Music/Sounds: Same as the Feature Presentation bumper, but the announcer says one of the following: Like the Feature Presentation bumper, the 1994 Fox fanfare is used before the voice-over.

1st Bumper (1983-1991)
Bumper: On a black background, we see a blue mirrored, stair-like texture which zooms out and rotates to face us.

Variants:
