RatPac Entertainment

Logo description by StephenCezar15 and others

Background: RatPac Entertainment is a motion picture financing company/production company formed in 2012 by filmmaker Brett Ratner and billionaire James Packer. The company merged with Dune Entertainment, which became a co-financing partner with Warner Bros., following the expiration of their contract with Legendary Pictures. The name eventually became RatPac-Dune Entertainment, which is a company in-name only; the company is credited on movies as RatPac Entertainment. There was no logo during trailers for the movie, but the logo was also appeared during the trailer for The Revenant. In 2017, Access Entertainment bought Packer's controlling stake in the company.

Logo: A burst of light occurs in the center, emitting blue-gray rays. The camera spins toward the center, spinning the rays until they form two solid beams adjacent to each other. The two solid beams then spin around to reveal two solid objects. The camera stops spinning and the objects then center into place. One of the objects is a right triangle, while the other object seems to be half of a rounded rectangle with the lower left corner cut to fit the right triangle on the bottom. The words "RatPac Entertainment" fades in, and the logo zooms back a bit and shines.

Byline: First shown at the end of Dunkirk, the byline "An Access Entertainment Company" is shown below. However, on said film, the logo is still; the full version of the logo with the byline was first seen on It, and later seen on theatrical prints of Justice League.

Variants:

• On some films, the company name is omitted.
• Starting with Run All Night, the logo is given an enhanced look as it briefly dissolves at the beginning and the finished logo is silver
• A still version is seen at end of some movies.

FX/SFX: Intricate CGI that is nicely executed. The RatPac logo itself was designed by Chermayeff & Geismar & Haviv.

Music/Sounds: A suspenseful percussion tune with a synth orchestra in the background, or the opening theme of the movie.

Music/Sounds Variant: On The Lego Batman Movie, the opening theme of the movie plays while Batman (voiced by Will Arnett) narrates over the logo: "Hmm, not sure what RatPac does, but that logo is macho. I dig it." A loud clang is heard as the logo comes together.

Availability: Seen on certain movies made by this company, but not all of them. On home media prints of Justice League, this is plastered with the Access Entertainment logo, possibly due to allegations against Brett Ratner.
