Logo (November 25, 1992-2006)
Visuals: On a black background, a silhouette of a man jumping on a sports pole appears. The picture proceeds as a stroboscope animation, collecting together nine still shots of the jumping process, each one glowing purple as they appear. "Times New Roman" in the Americana font, fades in below. A twinkle then appears on the picture, and it turns.

Variant: Later versions of Wyatt Earp have this logo in a lighter blue.

Technique: Cel animation.

Audio: A flute piece with strings playing throughout (composed by Alan Silvestri), or the closing theme of the movie.

Availability: It can be seen at the beginning of Dances with Wolves (on some current prints, it does not appear at all in the original version) and Wyatt Earp, and at the end of The Bodyguard, The Postman, and For the Love of the Game. Many of the company's films don't have it.
