Awesome documentary! So, taking time to investigation is a good help for finding out more information about a theme, and of course, making a more complete and complex (in this case) logo evolution / history. Thanks for staying here!
Pathé was infamous to me for the Movie of the 1960s BBC/ORTD series “Le Mageche Echantè” (which was infamously dubbed in English and renamed as “The Magic Roundabout” by the BBC and dubbed in America as well!!!) so that’s a fact
17:37 - Gee, wonder if Rent Hoëk Studios got into a lawsuit with Pathé and Warner over using their logo's music ident, hence why they only released their singular opus, "Explodey the Pup". 😂
Paretti also gained interest from Time Warner chairman Steve Ross. The company forwarded MGM/UA for $125 million in exchange for the exclusive rights to their home video distribution collection. Therefore Turner Broadcasting Company was bought for $200 million for the television distribution rights. Therefore Dustin Hoffman's check got bounced and the chaos within MGM and all points go to Paretti because he owed millions in laboratory bills. Especially the complaints from management a year later.
History of Nordisk Film Kompagni: In the early 1900's, a small film company was founded in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1906, originally called Nordisk Film Kompagni, it made some films in the early years of the century, like Fyrtøjet, Løvejagen, Præsidente, The Eleventh Hour, and a few others, the logo back then had the polar bear usually pointing to the left, much like the 1980's logo, but it also had the word "Copenhagen" in the middle of the globe, and the company's name, "Nordisk Film Kompagni" around the globe. It also didn't have a logo from 1919 to around 1953, which is about 44 years, in the 80's it removed "Copenhagen" from the globe and also got rid of the "Nordisk Film Kompagni" text around the globe. Eventually, the logo was changed again in around 2008, with the bear being fully animated and showing the actual logo at the end, now with the text "Nordisk Film" added, leaving "Kompagni" out of the logo.
Newsreels...Pathé is a very confusing company because there were different companies in different countries with the same name that were NOT affiliated with each other. . I can only talk about the US company because that's what I know. Pathé started the first newsreel in the US in (I think) 1911,when it was still French owned. After it became an American owned company in the early 1920s (I think, I don't have my books with me), the newsreel continued. When Pathe was bought by RKO, RKO got the newsreel. RKO sold (RKO) Pathé News to Warner Bros. in 1947, and it continued until 1956, when Warners closed it down. Warner Bros, bought only the newsreel; RKO Pathé continued making documentaries. This newsreel, from the early 1920s at least, had NO connection to the British company except in the name. RKO and Warner Pathé News were wholly American produced. I have never seen a video of the RKO Pathé News logo on the Internet, but I have seen it and have a still of it. It's found on the Citizen Kane DVD extras. A rooster on a weather vane crows.
Pathe is the only one to have an international distribution, other than StudioCanal. But the irony is that Canal+, StudioCanal's parent company never got an american channel
@@ChaseMC215 By the only one I don’t know what you’re referring to, but if it’s newsreels, the US RKO Pathé and Warner Pathé newsreels were American produced and not affiliated with any foreign concern. RKO got the newsreel in 1931 when it bought Pathé Exchange, and sold the newsreel (only the newsreel) to Warner Bros. in 1947. The American Pathé branch (Pathé Exchange) was not connected to the European company from about 1922, and ceased to exist in 1931 when RKO bought it.
A couple of things... American Pathé went independent in the early 1920s I think (from the French company). It was officially Pathé Exchange, Inc.The Pathé Comedy logo was just used on their comedy films. It wasn't a separate company. More importantly, though, is the RKO connection, which you misunderstood. Radio Keith Orpheum bought Pathé Exhange Inc. in January 1931 and ran it as a separate company, releasing pictures with the logo you showed. RKO Pathé ceased making features in 1933. It continued making short subjects and most importantly, newreels. One logo you don't have is the RKO Pathé newsreel logo. The newsreel was sold to Warner Bros. in 1947, but RKO Pathé continued as a division of RKO until it went defunct in 1958. The logo you show after that, just saying Pathé, I have only seen on US Pathé films of the late 20s until the merger with RKO in 1931. There was no independent Pathé company making movies in the US after 1931.

My question is how did we manage to find a logo that was apparently only used for a year (1989 one) when the 1973-93 logo we can't find a single capture of I highly doubt that the '73-'93 logo was actually used that long
Plastering Logos: Prints of an old movie have the old logo seen on the original print retained, but sometimes the logo is replaced with a newer logo from the company. These new logos on new prints of old movies are called Plastering Logos.
@@BOX_corporation. It shows a statue of the Rooster and has text that rotates and says Pathé Pictures LTD. I saw it on TR3X’s channel years ago. Here is the video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-D7G3_MbvhCM.html it is #99 in this video. It was blocked in my country for some time.
