Background: Picturehouse Films was formed in 2005 as a joint venture between New Line Cinema (absorbing FineLine Features) and HBO Films to distribute documentaries, foreign films, and independent films.


(2005- )

Nickname: "Picturehouse Sign"

Logo: We see the camera looking down from a tall building at dusk, and some sparks fly off an unidentifiable object. We then fade to a camera panning across the first few letters in a neon sign reading "PICTUREHOUSE", lighting up, and startling some birds. We then fade to the camera panning back at a different angle, and all the letters in the sign brightly illuminate. The standard TimeWarner byline fades in below.

FX: Excellent CGI.

Music: A string fanfare with sparking/buzzing sounds.

Availability: Seen on foreign and indie films, as well as documentaries, from 2005 onward.

Scare Factor: Minimal.
