Revision as of 07:25, 22 November 2022
North American Warnings
1st Warning (October 1980-March 1982, 1984)
Warning: We see some warning text scrolling up. The word "WARNING" appears in a cream color, while the Warning text is in white. Everything's in capitals.
Variant: In the last two months this warning was used, the text from the next warning replaced the standard text from this one.
FX/SFX: The warning text scrolling up.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: On all MGM/CBS releases of the era. This warning also appears on the 1984 CBS/Fox release of S.O.B., but at the end of the movie (MGM/CBS originally released the film in 1982 as part of their label).
2nd Warning (April 1982-May 23, 1990, 1991, 1992)
Warning: We see the Warning screen scrolling up. The word "WARNING" is in red with white outline between two white lines; the warning text is in white and now appears in lowercase. The black bars are at the top and bottom of the screen, but faded.
Variants:
- On classic MGM movies made in black-and-white, the warning is grayscaled.
- On laserdiscs and CED Videodiscs, "cassette" is replaced by "videodisc".
- On releases from MGM/CBS Home Video's "First Run Home Video Theater", a different warning spiel was used, which includes contact information to report pirated cassettes.
FX/SFX: Same as the previous Warning screen.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: On all MGM/UA releases from the era, as well as the last releases under the MGM/CBS name. Also seen on Wood Knapp Video releases of United Artists and MGM films, as well as a couple of Nova Home Video and Junior Home Video releases at the time. For an odd reason, this appeared on the original VHS releases of Thelma and Louise and The Man in the Moon, possibly as an editing mistake on MGM's part. Finally, this warning can also be seen on the 1992 reprint VHS of Fiddler on the Roof, because it was a reprint of the 1990 VHS.
3rd Warning (June 13, 1990-August 30, 2005)
Warning: We see the word "WARNING" in red, with a drop shadow. Below it is the Warning text, in white and in Helvetica font.
Variants:
- On promotional tapes (or known as demo tapes or screeners), the text "LICENSED FOR PRIVATE HOME EXHIBITION ONLY" is replaced with "LICENSED FOR PROMOTIONAL PURPOSES ONLY".
- On earlier MGM DVDs such as the 1997 DVD of GoldenEye, the warning contains more vertical space on the top and bottom, and the text on each paragraph has less spacing. A version with a darker red color for "WARNING" is also present on these DVDs as well.
- Most MGM DVD releases from 2001-2005 have an updated version of this warning. A brighter shade of red is used, and the text is in the Futura font (except for "WARNING", which is set in the Franklin Gothic font).
- On some tapes, the warning is slightly off-center.
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: On all MGM releases from the era (with the exception of the 2002 NBC.com exclusive VHS of It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, which had no warning at all; however, the 2003 VHS of that same movie had this warning). Also seen on New Line Home Video releases from 1992 to 2008, as well as HBO DVD releases and some WarnerVision/KidVision releases. When Sony acquired MGM in 2005, it went on to use the warning screens from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. MGM then switched to Fox's warnings when the home video rights were acquired by Fox the next year. Starting in 2020, with the end of MGM's video deal with Fox following its acquisition by Disney, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment now handles the home video rights to MGM's catalog titles (as well as releases of current and former MGM-produced TV series and Orion Pictures films, beginning with the 2020 remake of Valley Girl). Meanwhile, current MGM movie releases distributed through United Artists Releasing are distributed by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment and would use their warnings.
