On Making Snatch, the logo is smaller where the copyright notice was removed and the text underneath reads "For Columbia TriStar Film Distributors International ©2000 Columbia Pictures".
On Lock Stock..., the logo is like before but with the full shot of the logo shown and is to the right of the SKA Films logo.
On The Real Shirley Bassey and One Man and His Hob, the logo is inside a box and the text was altered where "ginger" is orange with a white shadow and the byline "an SMG Television Company" is shown underneath.
