=SBP (Argentina)=

Logo (1990s? - 2000s?)
Logo: On a black, starry background, we see what appears to be a shooting star moving to the right before making a turn to the left, revealing that the "shooting star" is a DVD leaving a trail behind it as it flies. As the DVD flies from left and right towards the center, the golden letters S, B and P appear one by one, and once they are done appearing, the DVD flies behind and places itself in the middle of the letters. The DVD briefly glows a brilliant blue before turning into a long, oval-shaped Earth, and a white line then slides in from the left underneath the letters, with the white words "S.A." (located right of the P) and "WORLDWIDE" (located underneath the line) fading in. The word "PRESENTA" fades in on the top-right of the screen shortly after and before we fade to black.

Variants:

FX/SFX: The DVD flying, the letters appearing, the line sliding in, the text fading in.

Music/Sounds: A loud, distorted, and sort-of majestic and dramatic theme. Music/Sounds Variants:

=Centropy=

Centropy was a warez group that specialized in pirated releases of films, many of which were still in or not even released to theatres at the time. Founded in January of 1999, the group was dismantled as a result of Operation Site Down, an FBI initiative conducted to disrupt and/or shut down the leading warez groups in the summer of 2005. Their releases boasted custom logos, apparently for bragging rights.

2nd logo (mid/late 2003?-200?)
Logo: Fading in from back, on a white-blue background, we see numerous white-to-cyan and red reflective blobs while the camera moves through them to reach futuristic-esque white reflective text reading "centropy". After reaching the text, the camera pans away to a shot of the background, and two pieces of stylized reflective text reading "FINEST VCD/DVD" and "RELEASE CREW" come from the top and bottom of the screens respectively and briefly spin around before moving off-screen. Immediately after, a Windows XP Internet Explorer window of a CNET article reporting on The Matrix: Reloaded having leaked online a day before official release stretches in, and after a few moments, another section of the article stretches in before we zoom in and out to see an excerpt of the article specifically naming Centropy and another warez group, Esoteric. The excerpt fades to black, and 3D orange text reading "CENTROPY" zooms out from the bottom-left corner of the screen while a square containing twelve screens showing various movies pirated by the group comes down from the top of the screen and and a futuristic container holding what appears to be some kind of plant floats to the center of the screen. All of these elements then move off the screen before we fade to black.

FX/SFX: CG animation, footage from the movies and simple transition effects.

Music/Sounds: A sample of around the last minute of "The Best" by Tina Turner. A male voice can be heard saying something unintelligible at the end following a brief period of silence. Availability: Extinct. Even if defunct, seeking out the extent of the availability of this and Centropy's other logos is not recommended due to the group's legally dubious nature.

Editor's Note: None.

4th logo (2000s)
Logo: While under the sea, we see a clownfish swim from the right side of the screen to the left as bubbles containing gold letters making up the group's name float up from the bottom of the screen along with three squares containing footage from three movies pirated by the group. A battleship then cruises from the left side of the screen to the right in-between the bubbles and the squares before the squares and the camera start rising to the surface. Once both reach the surface of the ocean and the camera flies up a bit more while panning down, we see, in white, cartoonish 3D text, a message from the group reading "Hello folks! Well you would expect the greeting here right? Not this time!", which remains on the screen for some time before sliding down off-screen. Another set of text slides up from the bottom of the screen reading "Seeing as how dangerous the scene has become, it's kinda hard to greet anyone anymore!" before exiting in the same fashion. This repeats for the other sets of texts, which are, in order, "Hell, no one wants to be greeted anymore! Fame is a dangerous thing these times.", "So we will send out some anti-greetings instead to the following evil empires" and "-> BSA, MPAA, FAST, M$, RIAA Until next time!".

FX/SFX: CG animation and footage from the movies.

Music/Sounds: A calm, dreamy piece featuring female vocals and synth instruments. This is apparently a music piece composed by Kenji Kawai. Availability: Extinct. Even if defunct, seeking out the extent of the availability of this and Centropy's other logos is not recommended due to the group's legally dubious nature.

Editor's Note: None.

5th logo (2000s)
Logo: TBA.

FX/SFX: CG animation and footage from the movies.

Music/Sounds: An excerpt of "Millions of Stars" by Jean-Michel Jarre. Availability: Extinct. Even if defunct, seeking out the extent of the availability of this and Centropy's other logos is not recommended due to the group's legally dubious nature.
