Touchstone Pictures/Logo Variations

These are the logo variations seen throughout the years by Touchstone Pictures.

D.O.A. (1988), Dick Tracy (1990), and Ransom (1996): The logo is in black & white.

The Rocketeer (1991, non-US prints): The logo is in the style of the 1983 Walt Disney Pictures logo seen on US prints.

Ed Wood (1994): Like the D.O.A., Dick Tracy and Ransom variants, the logo is in B&W. However, the animation is altered to have lightning strike the ball, forming the logo. The animation also appears to be much smoother, almost like it's shot on camera.

The Sixth Man (1997): The theme ends abruptly as the "twang" is replaced with the start of Doug E. Fresh's version of "Superstition" which continues over the Mandeville Films logo and into the opening credits.

Kundun (1997): The whole logo, except the flash, is in a red color.

Bicentennial Man (1999, non-US prints): The Touchstone print logo is featured in the end credits.

Sorority Boys (2002): The thunderball turns into a merit badge.

Gangs of New York (2002): As with the Miramax Films logo, the company name, in Miramax's corporate font, appears on a gray background.

ESPN's Ultimate X: The Movie (2002): We zoom out from around the center of the logo, which plays in warp speed.

Déja Vù (2006): The logo starts as usual, but midway through its animation, it plays in reverse. Then, it animates as usual.

The Tempest (2010): The logo comes from the sun eclipse on a teal background.

I Am Number Four (2010): The logo has a slight orange tint.

When in Rome (2010): When the logo finishes, we zoom out to reveal that it is on a postcard.

Need for Speed (2014): The first half of the logo is sped up, and after it completes it cuts to black instead of fading out.
