RLJE Films Warning Screens

1st Warning (1987-May 9, 2006)
Warning: On a black background, we see the words "Times New Roman" sandwiched by  lines. Below it is the following text depending on the years: 1987-1998 Arial 1998-May 9, 2006 Arial

Variant:
 * An early version exists, where "Times New Roman" is in a different font, without the sandwiched lines, the whole thing is in white, and takes place on a  spotlight background.
 * From 1989 to 2003, the top bar is in gradient. On DVDs until 2003, the word "Times New Roman" is different.
 * From 2003 to May 9, 2006, it takes place on a swirly background, especially "Arial" is bigger, in Arial Bold font, without the sandwiched lines. All of the text is in metallic color.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Mostly common. Seen on all Image Entertainment videocassettes, Laserdiscs, DVDs, early Blu-rays and UMDs. The early version is rare, as it was seen on the Laserdisc of Tangerine Canyon: Canyon Dreams. Prior to 1987/1988, Image did not use its own warning, instead using other companies' warning screens. Also seen on a VHS of Lady in White, a couple of SGE Home Video tapes, and Fox Lorber Home Video and Kino International releases.

Legacy: Why are "pictures" and "laser videodiscs" capitalized?

2nd Warning (May 16, 2006-2015)
Same as the 5th Universal Pictures Home Entertainment warning at the time.

Variants:


 * A widescreen version exists.
 * Depending on the disc, it either fades or cuts in and out.
 * On most Blu-rays, the 2006 Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Blu-ray variant is used instead.
 * On the 2010 DVD of ExTerminators and the 2011 Blu-ray of The Double, the Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment variant is used instead.

Availability: Common; seen on Image Entertainment DVDs, Blu-rays, and later UMDs (excluding Image's 2011 DVD reissue of Awakenings, which is a straight reprint of the original Columbia TriStar Home Video release and therefore uses their own warning). This warning debuted on the 2006 DVD release of Even Trade.

3rd Warning (2015-)
Warning: Same as Columbia Music Video's warning screen, except the bottom text is centered.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Common; seen on Image Entertainment/RLJE Films Blu-rays and 4K Ultra HD discs.

Legacy: Like on New Video, Cinedigm, Screen Media Films, and Zomba Video's warning screens, "unauthorized" is missing.

4th Warning (Shudder) (August 18, 2020- )
Warning: On a black background, the following text in white fades in and out: Arial

Variant: On Vicious Fun, the font is different and is arranged differently.

Technique: None, unless you count the fading.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on current releases of Shudder originals released on Blu-ray, such as Prevenge, Seance, Caveat and V/H/S 94.
