Psycho (1960): The logo plays, but the words "A Paramount Release" are outlined in black. 
_______________________________________________________________________________________
The Son of Captain Blood (1963): Standard logo, but with a copyright stamp and the Motion Picture Association of America logo below the mountain.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
McLintock! (1963): The 2002 logo precedes the film on the 2005 DVD release, but fades in a few seconds into the logo.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Zulu (1964): Similar to the War and Peace variant, but with grayer colors instead of warmer tones. As seen on a TCM broadcast and some prints outside the USA. The standard version is sometimes used instead.

The regular Paramount "The End" title card is in a different font.

The Godfather (1972): The second and third drafts of the screenplay had this description: "The PARAMOUNT logo is presented austerely over a black background". However, most VHS releases had no logo.
On the trailer for this film, it is exactly the same as the Blue and The Parallax View variants. 
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown (1977): On some prints, the 1977 logo is on a pink background.
The Bad News Bears Go to Japan (1978): The mountain turns into Mount Fuji. The Gulf+Western byline is in a different font as well.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Grease (1978): The 1977 logo is on a cornflower-colored background, the near-circle is pigment blue, and the instrumental of Love is a Many Splendored Thing plays. Usually, this variant has been replaced by the 1995 logo, with that logo's own music. All pre-1998 VHS releases have this intact, however.
On the 1998 re-release trailer, the 1995 logo turns black and white.
Prophecy (1979): The Paramount script logo and Gulf+Western byline are omitted. Only on the trailer.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Starting Over (1979): Almost the same as the Heaven Can Wait variant, but a bit darker. 
Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (and Don't Come Back!!) (1980): The 1977 version is on an ube background and the near-circle is Persian indigo.
There is also a cameo appearance by the 1975 Paramount logo during the film on an airplane in-flight movie, consisting of the Peanuts Gang sitting on chairs on the plane, and on a screen, we see a movie countdown leader parody, followed by a shot of the finished Paramount mountain logo (albeit with the Gulf+Western byline in blue instead of the usual white). This appeared before a film-within-a-film entitled Laughing Bunnies, which Snoopy and Woodstock were laughing out loud at during the film.
_______________________________________________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Urban Cowboy (1980): The 1977 logo is on a royal blue background and the near-circle is black.

_______________________________________________________________________________________
The Elephant Man (1980): Exactly the same as The Shootist variant.

Ragtime (1981): Exactly like the Reds variant, but the background is brighter and the near-circle is zoomed out further than usual.
________________________________________________________________________________________
Indiana Jones Series (1981, 1984, and 1989): These logos were replicas of the original 1954 VistaVision "A Paramount Picture" logo, but with a Gulf+Western byline added at the bottom. The mountain fades from the logo, and becomes:
a mountain in South America (Raiders), 
Coming to America (1988): The CGI Paramountain forms as usual (with Gulf+Western's byline). It then turns into a real mountain (with stars and text intact), and we zoom in over the top, and past the letters. This is done as Eddie Murphy's character lived in the kingdom beyond the Paramountain. 
Tucker: The Man and His Dream (1988): The 1953 "A Paramount Picture" logo is used. Seen after the "Paramount Pictures Presents" credit.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Scrooged (1988): The word "Paramount" and the byline "A Gulf+Western Company" are in a silver color and the camera zooms over the Paramountain into the "Yule Love It!" promo. The theatrical trailer on the DVD has snow coming down from the sky and the camera zooms into the Paramountain.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mission: Impossible (1996, Paramount Home Video): There is a special version of the 1988-2006 Paramount Home Video logo. On a gold background, the camera zooms backward as we see "Paramount" in its corporate script font, with the abstract mountain logo in the circle, and 22 stars encircling it. The byline "A VIACOM COMPANY" fades in at the bottom and is smaller. As the logo plays throughout, an announcer says "Paramount Pictures: the best show in town!". This might also appear on any other Paramount video.
The Beautician and the Beast (1997): When the logo finishes animating, the stars, text, and byline fade out and the mountain and clouds turn more realistic. After that, the logo pans down.

South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut (1999): The Paramount logo fades to a regular green snow-capped mountain that can be seen on pretty much every South Park episode. This was only seen on US prints of the movie, while international prints of the film use the 1999 Warner Bros. Pictures logo, but it still uses the music from the logo. 
Sleepy Hollow (1999): The logo has a gray tint, a darker version of the Braveheart variant.

__________________________________________________________________________________________
Lady in the Dark (1944): The logo is superimposed on a blue starry sky at the beginning...
....and at the break of dawn at the end. The text has a shadow effect and is tinted saffron. The mountains in both variations are blurry.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Sunset Boulevard (1950): The logo is superimposed on a street floor.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Alpine for You (Popeye short, 1951): An end gag that may have started it all. Bluto is on this mountain top, and then Popeye grabs the mountain top (with Bluto on it), with a lasso. He then punches Bluto and lets go of the mountain top, and stars emerge from Bluto's head and form the Paramount logo, as the words "A Paramount Picture" and "Color by TECHNICOLOR" appear below Bluto.

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Rear Window (1954): At the end of the film, the curtains of the Jimmy Stewart character's windows close and the Paramount text and stars are projected over the courtyard. This little vignette, reminiscent of the first shot when the curtains open, was removed when Universal acquired the film (which damaged the visual and narrative flow), but was later restored.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Red Garters (1954): After a few seconds, "A Paramount Picture" fades out, leaving only the stars and the background. The stars spin for a moment, then twenty stars "fly" away from the logo and the other four fade into four lamps inside a stage.
The sky is burnt sienna at the beginning...
...and completely red/crimson at the end of the film.
_________________________________________________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________________________________________
The Buccaneer (1958): It's the Paramount mountain from the time, only this time the font has slightly changed and seems more "handwritten", and the name is not stretched to fit in the circle of stars. The stars on the mountain are also gray. Under the Paramount name are the words "SUPERVISED BY" in a Roman font and "Cecil B. DeMille" in DeMille's signature handwriting.

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Charlotte's Web (1973): On the VHS version of this film, there is a special animated and bylineless version of the 1986 logo. On a blue gradient background with light blue filmstrips, the Paramount script logo in gold starts writing itself. We then zoom out to see 22 yellow stars which usually encircle the mountain in the movie logo. After that, the Paramount script logo turns white and the filmstrips turn into a picture of the 1986-2002 logo without the stars, text, and byline. As the logo plays throughout, a voice-over says "Paramount Pictures, bringing you the finest in holiday entertainment and the best of the new year." This was also seen on any other Paramount video, such as Ghost, The Addams Family, and Wayne's World, that you might have purchased at participating McDonald's restaurants during the 1993 holiday season.

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Nashville (1975): Similar to the If.../Paper Moon/The White Dawn variant, but with the 1974 logo instead. Also, the image has a grainy, shaky, "old-time-movie" look to it. This effect was reportedly achieved when director Robert Altman took the negative with the logo on it, threw it onto the ground, and stomped on it.

The Viacom byline is in its 1990-2005 font and the mountain is zoomed in so the tops of the highest 4 stars aren't seen (this is possibly an error in using the logo in the wrong aspect ratio).
