The film itself continues this trend, with the Beast's castle pre-transformation and the land surrounding it replacing the usual setting. The logo is effectively integrated into the film with the Enchantress in beggar form taking a rose from the garden once the camera zooms out far enough from the castle.

** In the first film, the Walt Disney logo zooms out, turning into Andy's wallpaper. In the 3D remake, the Pixar logo replaces the Disney logo in the transition. Luckily, the transition is still neat because the Pixar logo shares a similar shade of blue in the background.

In its sequel, a similar thing happens. After the logo finishes, the letters disappear, followed by Luxo Jr. and the background.

** In both films' logos, the castle has alarm clocks, waldo arms and other paraphernalia inside it. The "arch" is a large gear, or half a gear.

The Gadget Copter emerges from his hat and he flies off.[[note]]Incidentally, ''Inspector Gadget'' ended up being the last film produced by Caravan Pictures. Make of that what you will.[[/note]]

As this happens, the usual blue starry sky setting of the Disney logo transitions into a stormy DeliberatelyMonochrome setting, as per the movie itself.
* ''Disney/{{Frozen}}'':
** In the first film, all of the sound and music in both the main logo and the Walt Disney Animation Studios logo is muted and "Vuelie", a song inspired by Saami and Norwegian culture, plays over instead, continuing into the title sequence, seguing into "Frozen Heart".
** A TV spot and trailer for the film had snow covering the logo, the lake in front of the castle frozen and the sky clouded with mist.

Additionally, the arc is blinking green. An early version of this logo (seen in the deleted scenes) also featured the logo's text changing from alien characters to English.

* ''WesternAnimation/MickeysTwiceUponAChristmas'': A series of dots appear in the shape of a Christmas tree, and the camera zooms out to reveal that it is a decoration on an actual Christmas tree. As the camera zooms back in, the familiar castle forms around the dot-shaped tree.

The little spot of light (revealed to be Tinkerbell at the end of the opening credits) then moves, causing the logo to vanish.
* ''Disney/SleepingBeauty'': The trailer for the 1995 re-release included a clip of the Walt Disney Pictures castle transforming into the castle where Aurora's parents live.

[[OverlyLongGag This happens another two times before it goes over normally.]]
* ''Franchise/WinnieThePooh'':
** ''Piglet's Big Movie]]'': The spot and the trail it leaves are pink instead of white. Also, the start of the rendition of the "Winnie the Pooh" theme song for that movie plays over the logo instead of the usual theme.

[[ContinuityNod The original blue-bar castle can also be seen]] as part as the KillScreen.
** A TV spot promoting the film had the castle and logo as the image on an arcade screen before panning away.
** The Disney castle logo at the end of the ''WesternAnimation/{{Paperman}}'' short preceding ''Wreck-It Ralph'' is DeliberatelyMonochrome, as per the short itself, with a paper airplane providing the over-the-castle arc.

* ''[[Film/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians 102 Dalmatians]]'': The trailer for the sequel has the Walt Disney Pictures vanity plate superimposed at a weird angle, and it is revealed to be on a window that gets snapped up as a doctor talks about Cruella De Vil. In the actual film, the dogs bark along with the logo theme.
* ''Film/AroundTheWorldInEightyDays2004'': The theatrical trailer has the logo fly towards the viewer like a plane (set against a sky backdrop), only to swerve out of the way at the last second.
* ''Film/BedtimeStories'': The regular intro plays, but the castle is revealed to be a pop-up in a book as the page turns and it folds in on itself.
* ''Film/BeverlyHillsChihuahua'': In the theatrical trailer, the logo transitions with the sound of a cash register closing. In the actual film, the logo seemingly breaks apart like a piece of glass, but it is revealed to be reflected in a diamond.
* ''Film/{{Cinderella 2015}}'': The Disney logo changes from the usual nighttime to daytime as two blue birds swoop in to change the scene to the movie proper. As you would expect, the castle's coloring is closer to the Cinderella Castle than the Sleeping Beauty Castle.
* ''Film/TheCountryBears'': The regular intro plays amid a country song and one of the Bears counting down, but transitions during the flash of light to the same logo stamped on planks of wood and the "arch" being a small trail of flame.
* ''Film/{{Enchanted}}'': The camera zooms in on a tower of the Disney castle to show the book on a stand inside, effectively integrating the logo into the animated prologue.
* ''Film/FreakyFriday2003'': The flash of the arch is more prominent as it passes over the castle, and at the end, the screen fades and the castle is revealed to be imprinted in a parchment page as the "Walt Disney Pictures Presents" title card appears.
* ''[[Film/GForce G-Force]]'': Though the logo animation is unchanged, there are subtle sound effect additions to the logo (most noticeably when the arch rises and when "Walt Disney Pictures" appears).
* ''Film/GeorgeOfTheJungle II'': The usual logo plays, but just as the theme finishes, a silhouette swings down from the top of the screen and hollers, then veers wildly out of control before smashing through the belltower and causing the ''entire castle'' to collapse (complete with sound effects!).
* ''Film/TheHauntedMansion'': The teaser trailer has the logo imprinted onto a gravestone. In the finished film, the camera pans around the darkened castle as organ music plays, before fading into the roof of the mansion.
* ''[[Film/TheLoveBug Herbie: Fully Loaded]]'': The theatrical trailer has an American-themed castle awash in red, white and blue colors, along with arches shooting out in different directions.
* ''Film/HighSchoolMusical 3: Senior Year'': The logo sequence ends by turning the arch into a disco ball that fills the screen.
* ''Film/IcePrincess'': The teaser trailer has the logo frost up with ice, while in the finished film, a white light pans across the logo while the arch shoots out snow as it forms.
* ''Film/IllBeHomeForChristmas'': Aside from featuring a cover version of Creator/LouisArmstrong's "Cool Yule", the arch lights up in festive colors, similar to a string of Christmas lights.
* ''Film/InspectorGadget'':
** In both films' logos, the castle has alarm clocks, waldo arms and other paraphernalia inside it. The "arch" is a large gear, or half a gear. Also, at the end of the first film, the Caravan Pictures Guy walks down the road, pauses, and puts his briefcase down. The Gadget Copter emerges from his hat and he flies off.[[note]]Incidentally, ''Inspector Gadget'' ended up being the last film produced by Caravan Pictures. Make of that what you will.[[/note]]
** The trailer for the second film had the logo form before being wiped off the screen by Gadget himself.
* ''Film/IntoTheWoods'': The Disney castle has no fireworks, there is no music, the bay in front of the castle is ''much'' wider and the color scheme is very dark and downbeat. The logo ends with the titular woods framing the logo, with the pixie dust arc over the castle turning into the full moon.
* ''Film/JohnCarter'': The opening animation is tinted [[UsefulNotes/{{Mars}} red for its entirety]]. Additionally, a TV spot promoting the Blu-Ray release had the castle appear over the background of an alien planet.
* ''Film/TheJungleBook2016'': The logo is redone in a classic 2D style. "Presents" then appears below the Disney script logo and we zoom out to reveal a jungle setting much like the opening of the original animated film.
* ''[[Series/LizzieMcGuire The Lizzie [=McGuire=] Movie]]: The logo speeds in from the left of the screen and is flashing like a police siren while dramatic music plays. The beam of light at the end of the arch also stays lit slightly longer before the logo speeds away to the right of the screen.
* ''Film/{{Maleficent}}'':
** The teaser trailer features pale-blue text, and the normal castle is replaced with King Stefan's castle. The camera then swings around to show some distant mountains, starting the action.
** In the movie itself, Stefan's castle replaces the normal castle as the background around it changes, though the camera turn is kept. The camera then flies over and past it.
* ''Film/MarsNeedsMoms'': The opening animation is tinted [[UsefulNotes/{{Mars}} red when the arch rises]].
* ''Film/TheMuppets'': In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8z-LF_ulIs one of the trailers]], Animal can be seen running up as Kermit stares at the castle in the background and says, "Would you look at that", to which Animal responds by laughing.
* ''Film/MyFavoriteMartian'': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOk3cgpQUNM The trailer]] featured the standard logo, but the arch becomes electrified as it passes over the castle. In the actual film, the arch transitions into the shape of Mars.
* ''Film/NationalTreasure: Book of Secrets'': The opening Walt Disney Pictures logo is sepia-toned and darker.
* ''Film/OzTheGreatAndPowerful'':
** Several TV spots showed the castle being showered in light and transforming into Emerald City while the sky turned dark blue.
** In the film itself, the Disney logo is directly integrated into the PaintingTheMedium-exploiting opening sequence; as such, it appears as a monochrome paper cut-out model presented in a 1.33:1 aspect ratio (opposed to the 2.40:1 aspect ratio of the core of the movie).
* ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides'' featured fog appearing where the star in the beginning of the logo would appear, the Jolly Roger flag atop the Disney Castle, mermaids in the moat and a moodier color scheme. Additionally, in one TV spot, the castle is displayed as a drawing on a map.
* ''Film/{{Prom}}'': In the teaser trailer, the top of the castle lights up like a disco ball. In the finished film, just as the arch light is about to land, the castle suddenly becomes a photograph in a scrapbook which is then covered over by a pencil-drawing castle and "Walt Disney Pictures" text scrap. [[ContinuityNod Notably, the "Walt Disney" scrap is pulled directly from the 90's logo.]]
* ''Film/RaceToWitchMountain'': DarkerAndEdgier music is used for the Disney castle logo, and at the very end, the castle morphs into a silhouette of the titular mountain while the screen darkens.
* ''Film/TheSantaClause 3'': Just when the standard logo sequence ends, the camera pulls out to reveal that the castle is inside a snowglobe being held by Santa. He shakes the globe and snow begins to float around the inside of the globe, then chuckles as it zooms back in. In the trailer, however, the castle is green, there is no snowglobe and the logo is set against the backdrop of a town.
* ''Film/SavingMrBanks'': The logo is [[{{Retraux}} vintage-styled]] with "Walt Disney Presents", [[note]][[ContinuityNod Complete with the original blue bar castle!]][[/note]] the words "Walt Disney Productions"[[note]]Which the Walt Disney Company referred to itself as before Michael Eisner took over in TheEighties[[/note]], and the old MPAA seal appearing underneath.
* ''The Search for Santa Paws'': In the teaser trailer, the castle is covered in Christmas lights, the sky is much darker and the "Disney" word glows.
* ''Film/TheShaggyDog (2006)'': The logo turns into a doghouse midway through its formation, along with the sounds of a dog barking in the background.
* ''Film/SkyHigh'': The logo itself fades away and leaves a silhouette of the castle as part of a comic-book-style animated city skyline.
* ''Film/SnowDogs'': The sound of blowing wind can be heard as the logo forms, and the arch (and lettering on the company name) becomes coated with frost.
* ''Space Buddies'': The sky of the computerized 3D title sequence is replaced with space, and the word "Disney" glows white before the camera pans up into the sky.
* ''Film/{{Tomorrowland}}'': The Disney Castle and the landscape surrounding it are replaced with Tomorrowland's structures, complete with atom-shaped fireworks and a hovercraft smoke trail arc.
* ''Film/TronLegacy'': [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBN-Iolxa1o The castle is rendered as a black angular shape covered in]] TronLines within the Grid.

[[folder:Pixar]]
* For 3D versions of Creator/{{Pixar}} movies, the logo plays normally, but the camera starts out from the side of the letter 'P' in 'PIXAR.' The camera moves to the right, until we see the logo at its usual view.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'': When the Pixar logo finishes, it fades out except for Luxo Jr.'s light like after the end credits for Pixar films, but after it fades out, the words 'Celebrating 20 Years' appear, with Luxo Jr. making the 0 in 20. In its sequel, a similar thing happens. After the logo finishes, the letters disappear, followed by Luxo Jr. and the background. Luxo's head turns into a 'C' in the word 'Celebrating,' and then '25 Years' appears after the previous word fades out.
* ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'':
** In the first film, the Walt Disney logo zooms out, turning into Andy's wallpaper. In the 3D remake, the Pixar logo replaces the Disney logo in the transition. Luckily, the transition is still neat because the Pixar logo shares a similar shade of blue in the background.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu0sotERXhI The trailer]] for ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2'' has Hamm clicking through television channels. When the Disney logo appears in scratchy quality, the group tells him to stay on that channel.
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcpWXaA2qeg first trailer]] for ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3'' has the logo sequence filmed as if it were in VHS quality, with tape skipping sounds and grainy quality.
* ''WesternAnimation/WallE'':
** One extended-version trailer for and the ending credits of the home video version has the bulb on Luxo Jr. burning out and then being replaced by WALL•E; on his way out he knocks over the R in Pixar and stands in its place.
** Although the joke isn't necessarily with the Disney/Pixar logos themselves, if you stick around to the very end of the credits, the Disney and Pixar logos are followed by a Buy 'n' Large logo and jingle.
