Background
J&M Entertainment was a London-based film sales company that later ventured into film production. The company was named after its two founders, producer Julia Palau and distributor Michael Ryan. J&M was sold to Germany's IN-motion in 2000, and the rights to their films currently lay with Screen Media Films.
1st Logo (August 14, 1987-October 4, 1995)
Visuals: On a black background, a gold colored "J&M" in a Macy's-esque font, arranged like this...
M
...fades in. Below, "Entertainment Presents" also fades in, and a blue flash occurs behind "J&M", then dies down, and "J&M" later shines as the logo fades out.
Variant: There is a version where the background is blue, and the logo is silver.
Technique: Basic computer effects.
Audio: A very majestic mystical synthesizer tune.
Audio Variant: On What's Eating Gilbert Grape? and the Amazon Prime print of Year of the Gun, among possible others, the logo is silent.
Availability: Seen on early international prints of Theodore Rex (1995), Iron Maze (including the Mexican VHS release), and all prints of Exposure (AKA: A Grande Arte) (1991). Also found on the StudioCanal Blu-Ray of What's Eating Gilbert Grape?, streaming prints as well as the UK Screenbound & U.S. MVD Rewind Blu-Rays of The Return of Swamp Thing, Crackle's print of Eversmile New Jersey, the Hemdale VHS of The Princess and the Goblin, a Brazilian VHS of Tales from the Darkside: The Movie, older Hulu/Netflix prints of A Chorus of Disapproval, and UK VHS releases of The Monster Squad, Skin Deep, The Running Man, Major League, and Nightbreed.

Finally, the whole logo is zoomed out ("J&M", 2 lines and "ENTERTAINMENT" (in spaced-out letters)) and change colors from granite blue to gold via a "wipe" effect.
