Saturday, June 5, 2010 at 2:17PM Logo Soup: 'M:I 4' 'Tintin,' 'Green Lantern'
Collider happened upon a bunch of new official logos for Paramount's 2011 slate of films, featuring Mission: Impossible IV and The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn. It's all part of The Licensing International Expo happening next week in Las Vegas.

And Slashfilm has tracked down the new Green Lantern logo, which, as you'll read in the press release below, has as much to do with branding the Mattel toy line as it does the movie. And now you can see why there's such a thing as The Licensing International Expo: These things are big business. As the movie companies become more vertically integrated, it's desirous to move the titles along as many channels owned by that corporation as possible. Paramount, for example, is CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, and other cable outlets.
Beyond that, because the marketplace is so competitive with merchandising, the studios look for opportunities to brand their film products in a litany of other ways, as you'll read about in the Green Lantern press release. But first, the new official logo for the first DC Entertainment film at Warner Bros., next summer's Green Lantern:



Warner Bros. Consumer Products, DC Comics and Mattel “Ring” in Intergalactic Offerings for Green Lantern Batman: The Brave and the Bold, DC Super Friends and Young Justice Round Out DC Super Hero Line-UpBURBANK, Calif., Jun 04, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP) announced today a landmark year ahead for DC Comics and master toy licensee Mattel, led by programs in support of summer 2011’s Green Lantern from Warner Bros. Pictures. Under the terms of their ongoing strategic alliance, Mattel is granted unprecedented access to the complete breadth and scope of the DC Comics vault of characters, including Green Lantern and thousands of world-famous heroes and villains, such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Joker and The Riddler. Mattel will also continue its successful lines based on Batman: The Brave and the Bold and DC Super Friends, and is in the process of developing an all-new line to support Young Justice. “The sheer volume of the DC Comics property portfolio lends itself to an incredible array of consumer offerings,” said Brad Globe, president, Warner Bros. Consumer Products. “As master licensee, Mattel has consistently created innovative products that are true to the spirit of the DC Comics heroes and villains from which they are inspired. We look forward to seeing the results of the next wave of property collaborations.” Green Lantern is set to light up movie screens around the world in summer 2011. Bringing the enduringly popular DC Super Hero to the big screen for the first time, Green Lantern stars Ryan Reynolds in the title role as the newest member of the Green Lantern Corps. Each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers, but when a new enemy threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate, and the fate of Earth, lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan. “The Green Lantern film has an incredibly wide merchandise appeal,” said Donald De Line, Producer, Green Lantern. “The potential is there for amazing toys and merchandise because Green Lantern’s ring can create anything the imagination can conjure. From space stations and vehicles to alien action figures, the possibilities are just endless.” Mattel is launching a rich and comprehensive line of products based on the film for both kids and adult fans alike. The multi-category toy line includes Basic and Deluxe Action Figures, Figure/Vehicles, Role Play, Playsets, Games, Puzzles and Vehicles. Additionally, each Action Figure toy comes complete with a Green Lantern ring in order for kids to feel as if they, too, have been “chosen” to be a Green Lantern. The Deluxe Action Figures have a special feature that allows kids to truly replicate the elements in the film, and come with accessories that unfold into completely different items for unlimited hours of play. “Mattel’s Green Lantern toy program is going to introduce Green Lanterns like Hal Jordan and Kilowog to new fans everywhere,” said DC Entertainment chief creative officer and Green Lantern co-producer Geoff Johns. “It is going to be amazing to watch the world discover the Green Lantern mythology.” In order to fully realize the potential array of Green Lantern offerings, Mattel is supporting the film across key Mattel Brands such as Hot Wheels(R), Tyco(R) R/C and UNO(R). Collectors will also be pleased to discover that Mattel is releasing a Green Lantern “Movie Masters(R)” line of highly detailed figures based on the film, which are sculpted by the “Four Horseman” design team. Mattel’s Green Lantern product lines hit retail in summer 2011.
