Nicknames: "The Red Chair I" "The Dramatic Chair" "Sitting On The Middle of The Dust" "Gaumont Buena Vista International's Hong Kong Cousin" "The Sudden Johnny Mak"
Logo: TBA
Variant: A still version exists.
FX/SFX: The chair appearing, the texts fading in.
Cheesy Factor: The background is unnecessary to be colored on plain white, so the text is barely seen from here. It's also weird that it cuts to another texts, though it's appearance should be longer.
Music/Sounds: A low-pitched crash, which segues into a bombastic, happy sounding synth fanfare with whooshes and an explosive finale. The fanfare is heard on the other texts too. This sounds a lot like the Rank Screen Advertising 4th logo.
Availability: TBA
Scare Factor: Medium to high, maybe beacuse of the bombastic fanfare and sudden revelation of the chair and overall the weird nature of the logo's concept. but the logo isn't such as frightening as some homecountry logos, the same reason for those who used to it. The next logo is even worse!

Availability: Super Rare. Preceeded by the 1st logo or 3rd logo.
Scare Factor: High to Nightmare. Due to the darkness and subject matter. The scare factor may rise if you're afraid of black backgrounds or silence.
