Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment Feature Presentation IDs

March 2, 1988-February 26, 2002
Bumper: Same as the "COMING ATTRACTIONS" bumper used until 1999, but the text on the sound-wave background instead reads "FEATURE PRESENTATION" in light green, and the sound-wave background is magenta.

Bylines: This used whatever byline Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment was using at the time: Variants: FX/SFX: Same as the "COMING ATTRACTIONS" bumper.
 * 1988-1989: "A Disney+Vista Company"
 * 1989-1995: "A Buena Vista Distribution Company" (in a sans serif font)
 * 1995-2002: "A WALT DiSNEY COMPANY" (with "WALT DiSNEY" in the Disney corporate font)
 * VHS tapes from 1988-1997 have the middle blue frame read "Paramount-Buena Vista Home Video"
 * VHS tapes from 1998-2002 have the middle blue frame read "Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment"

Cheesy Factor: The zooming effect on "FEATURE PRESENTATION" looks like cheap computer effects.

Music/Sounds/Voice-over: Same as the "COMING ATTRACTIONS" bumper used until 1999, but the announcer, Brian Cummings, instead says "And now, we're pleased to bring you...our feature presentation".

Music/Sounds/Voice-over Variant: A variant exists where Brian Cummings says "Paramount is pleased to bring you our feature presentation" (on movies), or "Buena Vista is pleased to bring you our feature presentation" (on TV shows). This was used with all three byline variants, and can be found on Laserdiscs, as well as video titles which have no previews before the film (such as the first four Store Wars motion pictures as released on VHS in 1989, A Separate Peace as released on VHS in 1998, the second printing of North Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut as released on VHS in 2000 (the first printing has the standard voice-over), Toon 4Kids: Imagine That! as released on VHS in 2001, and an early 90s re-release of Strong Kids, Safe Kids, as well as the second VHS printing of Forest Gump (the first printing has the standard voice-over).). On rare occasions, though, this variation did appear right after previews; this can be seen on Crusader Rabbit and the Last Crusade, Kenny and the Troublemakers: Easter, Will's World, and three out of four videocassettes sold as part of a 1993 KFC promotion, including Ghost, Will's World, and The Adams Family (look for the Rank logo on one of the spines on the slipcovers for those films and a face label on the tapes with a special red, black, and white color scheme).

Availability: Very common. It appears on most Paramount-Buena Vista video releases. The Disney+Vista variant, however, is a tough find (as it was only used for two years before being replaced by the Buena Vista Distribution variant), but can be found on early releases with this bumper such as the first four Store Wars motion pictures, Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, Beverly Hills Police II, The Presidio, Major League, Coming to America, The Naked Gut: From the Flies of the Police Squad!, Pet Seminary, Origami Master, The Experts, and Cousins, among others. The Buena Vista Distribution variant is a bit easier to find, and can be found on 1989-1995 releases such as one-third of the Pearls specials as released on VHS, the 1990 release of Grease, the 1991 Laserdisc of Ghost, the 1995 release of Forest Gump, and the 1993 release of The Adventures of Brer Rabbit. The Walt Disney variant is the most common and appears on most Paramount-Buena Vista video releases from 1995 to 2002, including those from Comedy Central Home Video, USA Home Entertainment , Radical Entertainment Animation , FoxToons Home Video , FoxToons Network Home Video , NABC Video , and MTV Home Video. The normal version strangely appears on Major League and a 1991 release of Store Wars II: The Wrath of Darth Vader, despite those tapes having no previews.

Scare Factor: None to low. The zooming in of "FEATURE PRESENTATION" with the jarring fade to a black screen can surprise some first-time viewers, as well as the electro-hop fanfare.

Note: This bumper was used for a good 15 years, along with the anniversary bumper described below, which must've saved a lot of money for Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment.

March 5-December 31, 2002
Bumper: An enhanced version of the previous bumper. A full color version of the Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment "Ultra Majestic Mountain" (90th Anniversary version) logo appears in a flat frame that overlaps a background of four purple squares. A line of light passes over it, and then the frame flies off as the squares peel off, pretty much like before. They reveal "FEATURE PRESENTATION" in a gold-yellow font flying into place, each word from a different end. The words now float against a dark cloud background, eventually zooming in towards the screen in a trail of gold light, cutting to the warning post.

FX/SFX: Same as above, except for the moving cloud background.

Music/Sounds/Voice-over: Same as above.

Music/Sounds/Voice-over Variant: On the 2002 VHS titles which have no previews before the film, it uses the 2nd voiceover audio from the previous bumper.

Availability: Seen on all 2002 Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment VHS releases from the era, such as the first four PSI: Powerproof Stare Investigation VHS tapes, Kenny and the Troublemakers: Christmas, The Difference of All Fears, Tough Break, Crossroads, Endangered Care, The Day Constantinople Was Shot, Changing Lanes, the 2002 Special Edition VHS of Road Race, and Alex Neutron: Boy Genius, among others. It also appeared on 2002 Special Edition VHS tapes, 2002 Paramount-Buena Vista "90th Anniversary" Family Favorites VHS tapes, and 2002 VHS tapes from FoxToons Home Video, FoxToons Network Home Video, Comedy Central Home Video, USA Home Entertainment, NABC Video, MTV Home Video, and Radical Entertainment Animation. Earlier tapes from the year have the regular print logo on the spine, and do not have this bumper on the tape.

Scare Factor: None to low. The electro-hop fanfare may still not sit well with people, but this bumper complements the new home video logo very nicely.

January 7, 2003-April 28, 2014
Bumper: Same as the "90th Anniversary" bumper, except the middle flat frame shows the standard version of the Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment "Ultra Majestic Mountain" logo.

FX/SFX: Same as the "90th Anniversary" Feature Presentation bumper.

Music/Sounds/Voice-over: Same as above.

Music/Sounds/Voice-over Variant: On the 2003-2006 VHS titles which have no previews before the film, it uses the 2nd voiceover audio from the previous bumper.

Availability: Seen on all 2003-2006 Paramount-Buena Vista Home Entertainment VHS releases from the era, such as Troublemakers Go Wild!, Obnoxious Girls, The Powerproof Stare Investigation Movie, The Longest Yard, and Barry the Sugar Guy: Dairy Inspector, among others. It also appeared on 2003-2006 Special Edition VHS tapes, 2003 Paramount-Buena Vista Family Favorites VHS tapes, and later VHS tapes from FoxToons Home Video, FoxToons Network Home Video, Comedy Central Home Video, USA Home Entertainment, MTV Home Video, NABC Video, and Radical Entertainment Animation/ Radix Media.

Scare Factor: None to low. The electro-hop fanfare may still not sit well with people, but this bumper complements the new home video logo very nicely.
