FBI Warning changes

Here are the FBI Warning changes.

They are ONLY American warnings and they do not feature the Canadian Interpol or International warnings. They also don't feature real warnings already used by other studios. Only AU warnings go here.

## Universal

Universal should use the 2012 Columbia warning starting in 2016.

## Paramount

Paramount should use the "FBI WARNING" on top and the Title 17 (1979-1985) and a $250,000 Fine (1985-2004) texts besides the "Licensed" screen, just like on the tape label.

Paramount should also use Columbia's 2004 Anti-Piracy Warning from May 2004 to March 2013, being the first studio to switch to Anti-Piracy warning. Paramount should later used the 2017 Samuel Goldwyn Films warning.

## Fox

All pre-1999 VHS, Laserdisc and Betamax releases should still have it at the beginning to make more sense. The background should stay since 2004 with the 2004 and 2012 Anti-piracy warning and text appearing.

## United Artists

United Artists should use the 1981 United Home Video warning from 1978 to 1986, when United Artists becomes a division of MGM.

## Svensk Filmindustri

Svensk Filmindustri should use the Time-Life Video warning from 1986 to 1996 for the first screen and the Vestron Video warning for the second screen from 1980 to 1986.

Pre-1986 American Svensk Filmindustri home video releases should use the 1986 Media Home Entertainment warning, but on a black background.

## eOne

Entertainment One (as Element One until 2009) should use the FHE/USA/IVE/Live/Artisan warnings from 1977 to 2004.

All Pre-2001 FHE warnings should have the word "Warning" in White (a la the 2001 Artisan warning) to avoid looking like Universal's warning.

## Warner Bros.

Warner Bros., due to the merger of TimeWarner and Turner, should discontinue it's own warning in 1996 in favor of the 1986 Time-Life Video warning, which should last until 2004.

The 2005 UMD Warner Bros. warning should never exist at all.

## Disney

Disney should change the FBI screen to make it look like the licensed screen and to avoid looking like Warner Bros.' warning.

## Columbia

Columbia's 2004 Blu-ray warning would've been in open matte on all VHS and Fullscreen DVD releases from 2004 to 2009.

## MGM

MGM should use the Super Video Inc. warning from 1978 to 1990, the 1987 LA Production Group warning from 1987 to 1990, the Turner Home Entertainment warning from 1990 to 2005, and the 2007 Time-Life warning from 2005 to 2008.

## RKO

RKO should use the same text as the Universal warning but centered, had Warning in white, and on the 1928 RKO Radio tower, which will last from 1978 to 2000 for all VHS and Laserdisc. It would later be discontinued in June 2000 following the discontinuation of Laserdisc.

RKO should, in 1998, use the 1999 Anchor Bay warning but with a blue-tinted and zoomed out RKO background and both the $250.000 text and Paramount DVD text combined at the same time (due to DVD). It should debut in 1998 on DVD and 2000 on VHS.

## TriStar

TriStar should use the 1984 TriStar logo background to contain the warnings similar to the Columbia warning for the first screen and the Paramount licensed warning for the second screen.

## DreamWorks

DreamWorks should use it's own warning similar to Universal (but in traditional, centered, and with the Warning underlined and white), Paramount (but with the boy fishing on the moon) and Warner Bros. (but in traditional, transparent, the FBI Seal colored and on a cloud background).

However, DreamWorks also should use the Warner Bros. warning from 1996 to 1999 (due to Warner using Time-Life warning from 1996 to 2004).

DreamWorks should use the 2004 Fox Blu-ray warning from 2005 to 2012, and the 2012 Columbia warning from 2012 to 2016.

## Republic

Republic Pictures would've used the VidAmerica warnings from 1979 to 1990 and the Republic-background Traditional fronted version of the Universal warning from 1990 to 2006.

## Lionsgate

Lionsgate should use the 1981 Image Entertainment warning from 1977 to 2003.
