1st Logo
(1985-1989)
Nicknames: "TWE Ribbon", "A Logo That Could Be On An Airline Brand", "Airline Logo", "Trans World Airlines"
Logo: On a space background (look closely and you can see stars when the logo forms), we see a Tron-like grid with a purple glow above it. As we go above the grid, a red and blue ribbon appears and makes a stylized "W". Smaller ribbons extend out of the main ribbon to form a "T" and an "E". "TRANS WORLD ENTERTAINMENT" appears below the "TWE". The logo then "sparkles".
FX/SFX: The grid, the ribbon moving, the sparkling.
Music/Sounds: A synthesized jingle that contains a section that sounds a lot like Viacom's V of Doom jingle.
Availability: Appeared on B-Movies on VHS in the 80's, most notably Maniac Cop and a very terrible Gremlins ripoff called Hobgoblins, and also on older VHS tapes of some DFE cartoons, such as The Barkleys and The Houndcats among others.
Scare Factor: Low.
2nd Logo
(1989-1991)
Nickname: "Enhanced (CGI) TWE Ribbon"
Logo: Against a black BG, a blue ribbon with a white outline zooms out, quickly forming a W similar to the previous logo, colored blue and red (from left to right). The T and E also take form similarly to the previous logo. The words "TRANS WORLD ENTERTAINMENT", written in a futuristic font, fade in below when the logo forms.
FX/SFX: The ribbon forming, which is only a small improvement from the previous logo.
Music/Sounds: A Chariots of Fire like theme, on some movies like Teen Witch the opening theme plays over it.
Availability: Pretty rare, as far as I know. Can be found on Teen Witch, The Wild Pair and Seven Hours to Judgment. Also spotted on a recent Encore Action airing of Arena.
Scare Factor: Low.
