I've seen "logos" such as the Film Field Productions opening credit as well as the First National Movies "logo" and many Pakistani intros that starts with street views of a city or a mosque and I don't think they should be called logos. I think those intros have a different purpose than to display their company names in the opening, whether it'd be for religious reasons, crediting others, or simply hyping up the viewer for the movie.

What do you think?

They are logos, especially the Pakistani ones, who have in-credit text before or after the "logos".

I agree with Camenati. These aren't really logos, they're in-credit texts/opening quotations/etc. They might be better suited for Company Bumpers.

They are actually logos! But let's not start chaos here. Just the in-credit parts make them a logo.

The only in-credit logos that count on this wiki are things like the Mark Goodson Television Productions logo, not this.

Also the Dan Curtis Productions logos, there's a minefield of them over there.

Just because you don't understand Punjabi or Urdu doesn't mean they should have been deleted! I think only First National Movies and I.S. Productions should count as needing to be deleted.

@Timpbskid23: Still, they are not logos, they're more akin to those "in memoriam" or "disclaimer" notices.

I agree with Logohub. I always see these "In Memory of" disclaimers before the logo/movie starts. Company examples areː Ammal Pictures, Shakeel Pictures, etc. So bye cover-up logos, we'll miss you.
