Suddenly, as Ryan tells Samson he already heard his story a billion times it stops and rushes back. Then as the conversation repeats,it tries again, makes 2/3 of the distance, and rushes back again. Next time, the conversation occurs again and the particle is being drawn back by a hand. For the fourth time, the particle (and thus, Samson) finally succeeds, and the logo turns into the sun.

Oz The Great and Powerful (2013)
Instead of the Usual logo, we see another logo. in a grey background, we see the usual star. we pan down to see a black and white version of the castle, in an art deco style and we see the usual text under the castle on a grey floor. then, the usual arc from the 2006/2011 logo animates. The camera then zooms in, "Disney" then flips out in halves like a gate, through the castle gate and into the opening credits sequence. the normal logo appears in B and W at the end credits.

At the End, A Man puts on a plate with the logo on it and uses the ketchup for the curve.

Sounds accompany this variation. It fades from black (similar to the On Stranger's Tides variant, but without the fog). It is darkened. The fireworks are absent.

Beauty and the Beast (2017)
The music begins a second before the logo begins. Like the Into the Woods variant, it fades in as the camera pans down. It is set in France, complete with the town of Villeneuve and The Prince's Castle (With the lights on meaning that the masquerade party begins on the following prologue), although the river has the usual shape. The sky is an extremely dark nighttime sky, and the fireworks explodes in yellow. The glowing pinpoint is different and arcs as usual with a different trail. "Disney" fades in the same time as the front sparkles around it. When the music ends, the text & sparkles fades out and the camera pans back a little bit more to the bush of the red enchanted roses. The Enchantress' hand picks the middle rose up and she moves to one of the pedals of the rose transitioning into the prologue.

Pirates of The Carribenien: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017)
It is tinted dark blue (similar to On Stranger's Tides and Into the Woods variants). Storm clouds with real thunder are added to the sky. Like the ItW variant, the fireworks is absent, but unfortunately the glowing pinpoint and the front sparkles is also absent. "Disney" in its Maleficent variant style fades in.

The Last Warrior (2017, Russia)
The logo animates as usual but the front side is different, with an entirely different enterance & the water is still.

The sparkles that surround "Disney" are absent.

A Wrinkle in Time (2018)
The 2011 version of the 2006 logo plays as usual. After the music ends, the logo suddernly reverse the color with a wormhole effect. Later, the background is the galaxy of stars which moves like a kaleidoscope with the top part of the castle in which the castle itself (which glows in blue) starts deforming (Unlike the Inspector Gadget variants). The front return to normal, but "Disney" is in copper orange and becomes same sizen of 16:9 logo, which fades on. After a couple seconds. the logo wormholed again then suddenly cuts to the film's opening shot.

Incredibles 2 (2018)
The whole logo is in the style of the credits for each movie, there is no fireworks, there is a train at the kingdom, The top of the flag flashes, and at the end, when the logo fades out, the lights (says "II" like the number 2) do not fade out, which fades out, and the Pixar logo plays.

Christopher Robin (2018)
The 2011 version of the 2006 logo start as usual, but when the camera goes around the castle, the kingdom fades to the aged paper background to blend into the prologue, as the castle & fireworks dissolves into traditional animation (styled after the book series illustrations of E.H. Shepard). The glowing pinpoint makes a different sound. The sparkles around "DiSNEy" (in black) is absent, as the sparkles from above the castle transform into the twinkling stars, which disappears after a couple seconds. The logo fades out and was replaced with "DISNEY PRESENTS" with "DISNEY" bold as the camera zooms slightly forward. The book pages turn to cover up and the camera pans right to start the prologue sequence of the opening credits.

The Nutcracker and the Four Realms (2018)
The logo is darkened, with the music that rearranged by composer James Newton Howard and conducted by Gustavo Dudamel with pianist Lang Lang on the piano. When the music is ended, Drosselmeyer's owl comes in by swooping down from the sky above the left side of the castle. The "DiSNey" text with sparkles fades out, and the camera turns left to follow the owl into the snowy sunsetted setting of the Victorian-era London for the moving, establishing opening shot.

Mary Poppins Returns (2018)
At the end of the logo, the river is a road with Lamposts.

Dumbo (2019)

The One and Only Ivan (2020)
The Logo Animates as normal until the end, where it fades to the logo being in white after rain thing, "INSIRED ON A TRUE STORY" appears under by sparkles, and the logo gets wiped by Ivan.

Mulan (2020)
The logo starts normally, but after it pans down, the sky turns into dark blue with orange sunset glow, and drastically different background scenery that look like the farmlands seen in China. The castle has been changed to Enchanted Storybook Castle seen at Shanghai Disneyland and the wall on both sides has changed to The Great Wall of China. The 'Disney' text is also in a bright copper orange color. The bird as seen in the film flies around and even draws the arc before fading out.

Once Upon a Snowman (2020, closing)
The entire kingdom is covered by snow to mention that the story is taking the same timeline in Frozen (and all flags on the castle are omitted), and the "Disney" text is made of ice (using the primary version instead of the 2006 version from the standard logo). Olaf is skating across the snow, and says "skill!" (same quote from the short) before landing to the other side.

Soul (2020)
The logo's music is in the style of jazz music, albeit poorly played.

Flora and Uylsses (2021, Disney+)
The logo starts normally, but when the glowing pinpoint almost reaches the end, the entire logo transforms into a style of a comic book (in which the castle has a glitch animation (unlike the variants from Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch has a Glitch, Wreck-it Ralph and A Wrinkle in Time) before it transforms to comic style). Later, similar to the Alice Through the Looking Glass variant, the camera pans up away from the logo to the beginning of the film after a few seconds when "Disney" fades in with the sparkles appearing behind it.

Us Again (2021 short, closing)
The logo is a neon sign which is turned off. Then, the castle, in blue, turns up; followed by the "Disney" text in fuchsia, and finally the arc, also in fuchsia, which is divided in three parts that turn on and off, giving the illusion that the arc is moving from right to left over the castle as usual. Additionally, the castle is similar to the one from the 1990 logo.

Cruella (2021)
It is grayscaled, and storm clouds cover the entire sky (unlike the PotC: Dead Men Tell No Tales variant, except all the stars cannot be seen too). After the camera pans down, a backdrop of 1960's London is seen behind the original kingdom (sans the ship on the river). The fireworks now use only one color instead of multiple colors, similar to the On Stranger Tides variant. Real thunder is added to the sky when the entire castle is almost seen. The 'Disney' text appears, tinted in ruby red.

Jungle Cruise (2021)
The first movie to use the enhanced version of the 2006 logo, where the lights of the castle are seen in the river's reflection and the 'Disney' wordmark stays there. Afterwards, we pan down into the river, segueing into the movie's opening scene.
