20th Century Home Entertainment/Clip-On Library

1st Bumper (1987-1990)
Bumper: On a light blue-blue gradient background, we see a clapboard with the CBS/FOX logo (without the word "VIDEO") in it which later fades into the blue-light blue gradient italic words "HOME VIDEO PREVIEW". The clapboard claps and we fade out.

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.
 * After the previews, the clapboard reappears, and this time the text reads "CHECK YOUR LOCAL VIDEO STORE FOR DETAILS". This fades into CBS/FOX logo from before and then "FEATURE PRESENTATION" appears in the same text style.
 * There is a short version in which "CHECK YOUR LOCAL VIDEO STORE FOR DETAILS" is missing. This version can be found on some of the CBS/Fox Video, Key Video and Playhouse Video tapes that have this bumper.
 * Some Key Video releases, such as History of the World Part I, go straight to the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" portion. On later 1989 Key Video tapes such as The Charlie Chan Collection and The Betty Grable Collection, the words "FEATURE PRESENTATION WILL FOLLOW" are seen instead. Both versions are not italicized.
 * On the original VHS of Slam Dance, after the Key Video logo appears, it fades to "MUSIC VIDEO", before fading to "FEATURE PRESENTATION WILL FOLLOW".
 * A rare variant of the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" version has the text "CHECK YOUR LOCAL VIDEO STORE FOR DETAILS" on a dark blue background with a grey line in the center, then "Feature Presentation" wiping in word-for-word in a cursive font on the clapboard before it claps. The gray clapboard is replaced with a light blue clapboard and yet another different blue gradient background is used. This was also exclusively seen on Predator.
 * The Playhouse Video and Key Video versions also exist in black and white.

FX/SFX: The shining and the clapping.

Music/Sounds/Voiceover: An announcer says "CBS/Fox Video presents, a home video preview.", followed by a clap. The announcer is Bill St. James, who is also known for voicing Nick at Nite, Showtime & Adult Swim promos, as well as Rooms to Go commercials.

Music/Sounds/Voiceover 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."
 * The "Feature Presentation" variants have "Check your local video store for details. And now, for our feature presentation.", followed by a clap.
 * Sub-variants of the "Feature Presentation" variant exist:
 * On the short CBS/Fox and Key Video variants, the announcer just says "And now, for our feature presentation."
 * On the short Playhouse Video variant, the announcer just says "And now, our feature presentation."
 * On the Playhouse Video variant, the announcer says "Check your local video store for details. And now, our feature presentation".
 * The "FEATURE PRESENTATION WILL FOLLOW" variant is silent and lacks an announcer.
 * The Slam Dance version has the announcer say "Check your local video store for details. Key Video is proud to present the hit Slam Dance music video "High Hopes". Slam Dance the movie will follow".

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.

Variant: A short version exists as a feature presentation variant.

FX/SFX: The 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".

Music/Sounds/Variant: The variant just used the announcer saying "And now, for our feature presentation" in the same tone as the previous one.

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

6th Bumper (2000)
Bumper: We fade in on a space background. The metallic text "FEATURE PRESENTATION" (with a slight blue tint on the bottom) quickly zooms in, and light shines off it.

FX/SFX: The text zooming in and shining.

Music/Sounds: A five-note horn fanfare, with a clanking sound on the fifth note, followed by a seven-note drumbeat.

Availability: Only seen on the 2000 VHS of Power Rangers in 3-D: Power Rangers Triple Force.

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 in an Arial font, "TIME IN" 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 grey 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 through 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 Ident (1989-1994)
Bumper: On a black background, we see the text "COMING TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU."

 * An early version has the text in a yellow color, lowercase, and italicized, against a blue background. This version appears on Die Hard.

"THIS IS MY LIFE IS AVAILABLE FROM FOXVIDEO"

FX/SFX: None.

FX/SFX: Live-action.

Music/Sounds: Snipes saying his line.

Availability: Appears on the 1994 UK rental VHS of Rising Sun.

4th Bumper (1997-2000)
Bumper: We start off with a white flash, which zooms out to reveal 4 gold/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 gold light zooms into the camera that turns into a splash of light, which fades onto a dark grey background with a gold TV set and inside the set are the words:

"VIDEO", "RELEASES", "TO" and "RENT"

floating. 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.

5th Bumper (1999-2001 (standard usage); 2000s-2011 (VCDs))

Variants:
 * On international releases, the already formed 20th Century Fox logo appears half transparent at the sides, and the clip-on folds in as normal. For countries where English isn't the primary language, the language varies depending on the country the tape was released in (though on Japanese tapes, a Japanese translation of the text appears underneath the standard text, at least on the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" 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: The logo animating and the clip-ons folding in.

Music/Sounds: The 1994 Fox fanfare, and an announcer saying one of the following:
 * "Coming to video for your home viewing pleasure."

 * "Available on video for your home viewing pleasure."
 * "Look for these exciting films, coming soon to cinemas."
 * "Look for these exciting films, coming soon to theatres."
