Logo: Against a black background, a series of blue lights draw a red "R" which promptly explodes as a yellow "R" slides out to take its place. Following the "R" are a pair of trailing outlines reading "Redstone". When the words meet up with the "R", they flash against the letter before turning red and filling in. We then see a series of fireworks fly underneath the "R" to spell out "Showcase Cinemas" (in white). A blue flash appears behind the logo, and then multi-colored fireworks appear and explode against the background. While this happens, a light wipes in from the left and changes the bottom text to "Feature Presentation". The word "Redstone" flashes once, followed by the gold "R", then "Redstone" again followed by the "Feature Presentation" text. The fireworks disappear as the logo briefly holds before fading out.
Variants: A variant with the words "Coming Attractions" exists.
- Prototype Variant: Against a space background, we see a red "S" fly toward the center of the screen and position itself right-side up. A yellow "S" follows the red letter and positions itself sideways atop the red one. The completed shape the flies to the top of the screen as the word "Showcase" flies down to fill the center. The word "Cinemas" then flies down and positions itself below "Showcase". The text then rotates from front to back-accompanied by a blue flash of light-to reveal the text "Feature Presentation". The completed sequence holds for a few seconds before cutting out.
FX/SFX: Scanimate effects throughout.
Music/Sounds: A loud bombastic fanfare. Silent for the prototype variant.
