1st Screen (199?-Early 2000s)

Bumper: On a black background, the text This film has been modified from its original version. in a Bold Italic Arial font fades in first. Then, another text in the same font fades in below : "It has been..." :

    • "...formatted to fit your TV and edited for television."
    • "...formatted to run in the time allotted."
    • "...formatted to fit this screen, and edited to run in the time allotted, and for content."
    • "This film has been modified from its original version and edited for television."
    • "This film has been edited for television."

Variants:

  • Sometimes, all of the text fades in at the same time.
  • On a 2000 syndicated print of Another Stakeout, the text is in plain arial, without bold and italic.
  • The text font may varies.

FX/SFX: The fade-in.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. It used to be seen at the start of many TV prints of Disney/Touchstone/Miramax/Dimension titles in syndication in the late 90s up until the early 2000s.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Bumper (2000s-Present)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the following text in Arial Black Bold font: "This film has been modified from its original version. It has been..."

  • "...formatted to fit this screen."
  • "...formatted to fit this screen and edited for content."
  • "...formatted to fit this screen and edited to run in the time allotted."
  • "...formatted to fit this screen, to run in the time allotted, and edited for content."
  • "...formatted to fit this screen and edited to run in the time allotted and for content."
  • "...formatted to fit this screen and to run in the time allotted."
  • "...formatted to fit this screen and edited for content."
  • "...edited for content."

Variants:

  • The text may varies.
  • There is a Spanish language version.
  • On old TV prints of Tough Guys, The 13th Warrior and Rushmore, the text is in a different font and reads "This film has been modified from its original version. It has been formatted to fit the screen and edited both for content and to run in the time allotted."

FX/SFX: Just the simple fade in and fade out.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Common on TV prints of Disney-owned titles since the mid-2000s. Also seen on some modern TV prints of 20th Century Studios titles since 2020. Surprisingly, this can be seen at the start of VH1's print of Romeo Must Die, a Warner Bros. film.
