Cartoon Network's Cartoon Theatre

Background:
Cartoon Network's Cartoon Theatre was a programming block on Cartoon Network that aired animated and family-oriented films from the libraries of Warner Bros. Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Universal Studios, 20th Century Fox Film Corporation, Sony Pictures Entertainment and DreamWorks Animation.

(1998-2007)


Nicknames: "Cartoon Network Structure", "Cartoon Network Ticket", "Cartoon Network 20th Century Fox Parody"

Logo: A yellow and red structure (a parody of the 20th Century Fox Film Corporation logo) is seen and slowly turning from right to left. As this happens, a white ticket stub is flipping down from the top of the screen and lands in front of the structure. It has the 1992 Cartoon Network logo on it and it says "ADMIT ONE" under the logo.

Trivia: The block also had a preview opening that parodied the 1986 Paramount Pictures logo, the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer logo and the Columbia Pictures logo (not a specific one).

FX/SFX: The turning of the structure and the flipping of the ticket. Basically, CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A male announcer saying, "Only on Cartoon Network." Sometimes, the ending theme from the preview that preceded this is heard.

Availability: Extinct. Can be seen on old recordings of broadcasts from the block.

Editor's Note: None.
