Background

This is the vanity card of film producer Jon Peters.


(November 22, 1995-October 5, 2018)


Nickname: "The Dreamland"

Logo: We zoom out of a gate that is part of a marble wall with engravings of antelopes running. Beyond the gate is a large stylized cityscape. On the left side, there is a night sky with the moon, but on the right, it is daytime. As we zoom out, the gate closes, and "PETERS ENTERTAINMENT" can be seen on the archway above the gate. The wall reflects on the floor. A futuristic-looking aircraft flies above the area as the name shines.

Variants:

  • The print logo appears at the end of Ali.
  • 4:3 prints of films use an open-matte version with more of the scenery visible on the top and bottom.

FX/SFX: The gates closing and the aircraft flying over.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the movie. On Money Train and A Star is Born (2018) (the bookending releases to feature this logo), it is silent.

Music/Sound Variants:

  • On Wild Wild West, Enrique Iglesias' "Bailamos" is heard over it and the preceeding Warner Bros. Pictures Distribution logo.
  • The Ali print version has the closing theme fading out over it.

Availability: Seen on films from the company, namely Money Train, My Fellow Americans, Rosewood, Wild Wild West, Ali, Superman Returns, Man of Steel and A Star is Born (2018).

Editor's Note: A kind of weak attempt at making an atmospheric and fancy-looking logo. Not to mention that the reflection on the floor is not aligned correctly with the wall and the gate. This logo's appearances have been exceedingly scarce, thanks to the sexual harassment charges made towards Peters dating back to 1996, and him eventually losing one of said lawsuits; it only appears on Man of Steel because he was an executive producer (but was still banned from the set by producer Christopher Nolan). It also appears on the 2018 remake of A Star is Born only because of a legal obligation (Peters was attached to the property since the 1970s, and thus director and lead actor Bradley Cooper required his consent to remake the film, though he has stated Peters did not work on set).
