Legendary Pictures

Logo description by mr3urious

1st Logo (2005-2006)

Logo : We see a forest above a lake, all obscured by clouds. As the camera zooms in, a sword fades in with the words "LEGENDARY PICTURES", in a majestic gold font, in front of it.

Variants :
 * Early trailers for Superman Returns have a black background.
 * Early trailers for Lady in the Water have water with the sky reflecting off of it in the background.

FX/SFX : Either the sword zooming in, or no animation at all.

Music/Sounds : The sound of wind followed by a majestic fanfare, or the trailer's opening theme.

Availability : Pretty much rare. Only seen on the first trailers for Superman Returns, Lady in the Water, and The Ant Bully. The best place to find it is an early HD trailer for Superman Returns, which still exists. Despite a presence on Vimeo, this logo is not seen on any movie.

Scare Factor : None.

2nd Logo (June 28, 2006-October 16, 2009)

Logo : Against a black background, we see an extreme close-up of a flame shooting downward. The camera pans back, and several more flames shoot across, eventually revealing a series of gold intertwining lines (resembling a Celtic knot) and the words

 LEGENDARY PICTURES

below it, which are also in gold.

Trivia : This was designed by Picture Mill.

Variants: 
 * On 300, the logo is made out of stone.
 * On 300: March for Glory, the logo is black and white with the text arranged to the right of the shield.

FX/SFX : The flames.

Music/Sounds : The sounds of fire accompanied by a violin-like sound.

Availability : Common, but no longer current; can be seen on films produced by the company such as Superman Returns, The Ant Bully, and 300.

Scare Factor : Low.
