Equinoxe Films

1st Logo

(1990s)

Nicknames: "The Milky Way", "The Flipping E in Space"

Logo: We travel through the Milky Way at warp speed with some stars shooting towards us until we see a glow of light appearing in the middle of the rotating starfield. A comet leaves behind a dusty trail until it reaches the glow of light, turning into a gold lowercase "e" tilted at 45 degrees, flipping a couple of times until it slowly comes to a stop as a gold semicircle tilted at the same angle fades in, forming the logo as the lowercase "e" becomes two-toned. The text "EQUINOXE FILMS", framed in thin horizontal lines, fades in below as the starfield continues to rotate slowly after the logo is completed.

FX/SFX: Spectacular CGI effects.

Music/Sounds: It begins with a few "WHOOSH" sound effects mixed with some tingles and a choir in the background, ending with a bombastic synth fanfare.

Availability: Rare. This can be found only on Canadian prints of My Big Fat Greek Wedding and The Passion of the Christ. This can also be found on Mambo Italiano internationally.

Editor's Note: None.
