Background

These are the viewer advisory bumpers that were used by the former Canadian premium service The Movie Network.

1st Bumper (2000-2008)

Visuals: On a blue silk background, the Movie Network logo forms by spinning in the top left corner. In the middle, there is the advisory text, with the rating in a black box in the lower left corner of the screen.

Technique: The Movie Network logo is in CGI, while the background is live action.

Audio: A soft orchestral tune plays while a male announcer reads the text onscreen.


2nd Bumper (2008-2016)

Visuals: Over a blue signature film chip that has taken up the whole screen, we see the text "The following presentation..."

  • "is intended for all audiences"
  • "contains scenes with mature themes"
  • "contains scenes with violence and coarse language"
  • "contains scenes with violence, coarse language, and mature themes"
  • "contains scenes with violence, coarse language, nudity, and mature themes"
  • "contains scenes with graphic violence, coarse language, and mature themes"

At the bottom right of the screen is the word "Rated" with a white square outline with either "G", "PG", "14A", or "18A" in it. For the latter three, the text "viewer discretion is advised" is seen below.

Technique: None.

Audio: A male announcer reads the text onscreen.

Legacy: These bumpers were lost until November 2022, when they were uploaded to YouTube (albeit as potato captures).

3rd Bumper (2016-October 31, 2018)

Visuals: Unknown.

Technique: The thin line sliding.

Audio: Same as before, but different.
