Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (1988, 1993-1998)


Logo: On a blue-black gradient background, we see an dark orange scheme of the earth with an dark orange filmstrip ribbon on the upper side of the screen. The continent's scheme is black and its borders are brown. Suddenly, a yellow modeled lion walks and holds the earth but before it roars, And then we see another yellow lion from the right, roars and then holds the earth. The text "GOLDEN LIONS FILMS" on yellow, extends from both sides of the screen. On the bottom, the text "PRODUCTIONS" on red, pops on the bottom. It stands still for a couple of seconds.

Variant: A prototype version where this logo was used as heart filmstrip ribbon (a la Sanrio) and set on black background and the Productions text was flashes was used this was seen on Knock Knock who's there (1988 film).

FX/SFX: Very cheap and extremely dated animation, as expected from another Filipino logo.

Music/Sounds: A bombastic, jumbled up fanfare with the roar of the lions, which isvery loud. Some zaps and whooshes accompany the fanfare.

Availability: Uncommon. Seen on many films Golden Lions has presented, such as the ones listed in iMDB.

Editor's Note: The bombastic music, the roar of the lions and the zaps and whooshes may get to many audiences, while unintended.
