Logo: On a dark grey background, we see a white rectangle with rounded edges (the label on a VHS tape) showing the logos for United King (a film reel with two curved lines, surrounded by stars, coming from both ends) and Globus Group (a G shape with another G shape flipped horizontally to form one globe-like logo, also surrounded by stars). Below it is text in Hebrew, translating to "United King - Globus Group Video" (with "Video" spaced out slightly below the words). Then the image zooms out, revealing it is on a VHS tape as the camera angle lowers to show it is in zooming into a movie theater with the logo on a marquee and two squares on the sides of the theater as well as to the sides of the entrance. As the VHS flies into the cinema, we see cars passing by the cinema and the squares change to show various logos (including Warner Home Video, A.D. Matalon,Columbia TriStar Home Video, 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, Fox Kids, ABC Video, unknown company, Israeli Educational Television (Hinuchit),MGM Home Entertainment, Nu Image, Regency, Saban, Shapira,Summit Entertainment, andUnited Artists). As the VHS reaches the entrance to the cinema, a set of doors opens, showing a glowing yellow light as the VHS zooms in and the camera follows it. Once the camera goes past the doorway, the glowing yellow changes to a red curtain that opens to reveal a black background (with a white spotlight in the upper-right corner) with a warning, in Hebrew, scrolling up as the tape zooms into to the top of the screen until it disappears. Eventually, the warning scrolls up to reveal the same logo from before which later fades to a message which includes the copyright date (1997) as well as a phone number (I think).

Nickname:"The Flying VHS Tape", "A VHS Tape Goes to the Movies"

Logo: On a dark grey background, we see a white rectangle with rounded edges (the label on a VHS tape) showing the logos for United King (a film reel with two curved lines, surrounded by stars, coming from both ends) and Globus Group (a G shape with another G shape flipped horizontally to form one globe-like logo, also surrounded by stars). Below it is text in Hebrew, translating to "United King - Globus Group Video" (with "Video" spaced out slightly below the words). Then the image zooms out, revealing it is on a VHS tape as the camera angle lowers to show it is in zooming into a movie theater with the logo on a marquee and two squares on the sides of the theater as well as to the sides of the entrance. As the VHS flies into the cinema, we see cars passing by the cinema and the squares change to show various logos (including Warner Home Video, A.D. Matalon, Columbia TriStar Home Video, 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, Fox Kids, ABC Video, unknown company, Israeli Educational Television, MGM Home Entertainment, Nu Image, Regency, Saban, Shapira, Summit Entertainment, and United Artists). As the VHS reaches the entrance to the cinema, a set of doors opens, showing a glowing yellow light as the VHS zooms in and the camera follows it. Once the camera goes past the doorway, the glowing yellow changes to a red curtain that opens to reveal a black background (with a white spotlight in the upper-right corner) with a warning, in Hebrew, scrolling up as the tape zooms into to the top of the screen until it disappears. Eventually, the warning scrolls up to reveal the same logo from before which later fades to a message which includes the copyright date (1997) as well as what seems to be a phone number.

FX/SFX: The VHS tape zooming out and zooming into the cinema, the cars passing by the cinema which changes logo images, the yellow light glowing as the doors open, the curtains opening and the warning and logo scrolling up before fading to the message at the end of the logo.

Music/Sounds: A dramatic orchestral fanfare with whooshing sounds (such as when the tape zooms out)

Availability: Uncommon, unless you live in Israel or own tapes from the company; it can be found on Israeli tapes of films/TV shows from any of the companies featured in the logo at the time.
