Suddenly, as Ryan tells Samson he already heard his story a billion times it stops and rushes back. Then as the conversation repeats,it tries again, makes 2/3 of the distance, and rushes back again. Next time, the conversation occurs again and the particle is being drawn back by a hand. For the fourth time, the particle (andthus, Samson) finally succeeds, and the logo turns into the sun.

The "Walt Disney" scrap of paper is part of the 1985 logo. The music also turns into a rock version when it transforms. Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011): At the beginning, the dark blue fog comes in from the left to fill the screen as the animation (Tinted in dark blue) fades in at the camera panning down. (You still see the glimpse of the stars as it fades in.) On the castle, the Jolly Roger flag is at the tallest spire. On the front river, two mermaids flips their tails before the text fades in as it zooms to position. At the end, it is normal but it is still tinted dark blue.

The 1985 logo is briefly seen. It ends with a TV off effect. Oz the Great and Powerful (2013): It is grayscaled, in an art-deco style, in a 4:3 aspect ratio (Like the first minutes), and it is part of the opening credits. The stars in the background are cheaply animated and the camera zooms out from the top of the castle to show the entire logo, with different exploding fireworks and the "Disney" text already formed. After the camera stops, the glowing pinpoint suddenly appears and, as usual, arcs over the castle. The camera then zooms in, "Disney" then flips out in halves like a gate, through the castle gate and into the opening credits sequence. Planes (2013): It didn't start after the few seconds. The train makes a whistling sound. The fireworks has different sounds. "Disney" is in white glass. When it finishes, the sparkles around "Disney" disappears. Then, the highest tower of the castle begins to shine like a lighthouse. After one full rotation of light, the tallest spire has added a blinking red light and two planes fly past the logo towards the screen, cutting into the opening shot. Get a Horse!

Clarabelle Cow is seen leaping over the castle and leaves behind the trail of pixie dust. Maleficent (2014): It starts as normal with the usual kingdom, but the castle is different, and the front side is entirely different. "Disney" is in silver with sparkles around it. When the setting changed into daytime, the narrator starts the story while the camera starts zooming past the word and through the castle to reveal the entirely different kingdom. Into the Woods (2014): Sounds accompany this variation. It fades from black (similiar to the On Stranger's Tides variant, but without the fog). It is darkened. The fireworks are absent. The glowing pinpoint fades in, moving as usual, arcs over the castle becoming the moon and the sparkles disappeared early. The camera backs up into the woods (Hense the movie) as "Disney" fades in.

The Jungle Book (2016): It is reanimated traditionally except it takes place in Disneyland, California, United States. and the music is rearranged. "Disney" is in orange.

It fades out just before the sparkles on the arc disappear. Inner Workings (2016 short, Closing): The camera pans right from the end of the closing credits to the sunsetted beach rendition of the logo with the castle made out of sand. "Disney" in white fades in at the bottom as the last part of the short's song "California Loco" plays. Beauty and the Beast (UK; 2017): Like The Secret of the Magic Gould variant, the music begins a second before the logo begins. Like the Into the Woods variant, it fades in as the camera pans down. It is set in France, complete with the town of Villeneuve and The Prince's Castle (With the lights on meaning that the masquerade party begins on the following prologue), although the river has the usual shape. The sky is an extremely dark nightime sky, and the fireworks explodes in yellow. The glowing pinpoint is different and arcs as usual with a different trail. "Disney" fades in the same time as the front sparkles around it. When the music ends, the text & sparkles fades out and the camera pans back a little bit more to the bush of the red enchanted roses. The Enchantress' hand picks the middle rose up and she moves to one of the pedels of the rose transitioning into the prologue. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017): It is tinted dark blue (similar to On Stranger's Tides and Into the Woods variants). Storm clouds with real thunder are added to the sky.

The sparkles that surround "Disney" is absent. A Wrinkle in Time (Australia/New Zealand; 2018): After the music ends, the logo begins to glitch (Unlike the L&S2 variant) through the tassaret effect to a different version. The background is the galaxy of stars which moves like a kaleidoscope with the top part of the castle in which the castle itself (which glows in blue) starts deforming (Unlike the Inspector Gadget variants). The front is still here, but "Disney" is in copper orange, which fades on. After a couple seconds. the logo glitches more until it cuts to the film's opening shot. Incredibles 2 (2018): The entire logo is reanimated in 2D and is in the style of the 60's, in a red/yellow scheme. The main star twinkles in, while the rest of the stars and the background fades in. The camera pans down to the different kingdom with the city that connects with the maglev train. The castle has the blinking light at its tallest spire, while the fireworks is omitted. From the right side of the castle, the glowing pinpoint moves from behind and arcs over the castle. The yellow "DiSNey" text simply fades in without the sparklies. When it fades out, the castle's enterence shows the "2 Is" symbol (the film's official symbol), which also fades out shortly. File:Incredibles 2 (Disney Logo).png Christopher Robin (UK; 2018): The normal version start as usual with its music, but when the camera goes around the castle, the kingdom fades to the aged paper background to blend into the film's opening credits, as the castle & fireworks dissolves into traditional animation (styled after the book series illustrations of E.H. Shepard). The glowing pinpoint makes a different sound. The sparklies around "DiSNEy" (in black) is absent, as the sparklies from above the castle transform into the twinkling stars, which dissappears after a couple seconds. The logo fades out and was replaced with the in-credit as the camera zooms slightly forward. The book pages turn to cover up amd the camera pans right to start the prologue sequence of the opening credits. File:DISNEY LOGO CHRISTOPHER ROBIN Variant.png The Nutcracker and the Four Realms (UK; 2018): The music is rearranged by composer James Newton Howland and conducted by Gustavo Dudamel with pianist Lang Lang on the piano. When the music is ended, Drosselmeyer's owl comes in by swooping down from the sky above the left side of the castle. The "DiSNey" text with sparklies fades out, and the camera turns left to follow the owl into the snowy sunsetted setting of the Victorian-era London for the moving, establishing opening shot. Ralph Breaks the Internet (2018, Closing): The 2011 version of the closing logo animates as usual, with the song "Never Gonna Give You Up" fading out and Ralph talking about over it. At the last second, it very abruptly cuts to the previous installment's closing logo variation as the screen turns off. Mary Poppins Returns (2018): The 2011 version of the 2006 logo plays, but as the camera pans around the castle, various London landmarks can be seen. As the music ends, the camera backs up onto a road with lampposts, and several trees are on the grass.
