Favorite Studio Intro/Logo - Blu-ray Forum

Jennifer Lawrence Fan · 06-03-2014, 07:11 PM

By that I mean your favorite studio graphic that appears before the movie or music Like how 20th Century Fox has the fanfare music before all their movies.

Mine would be

20th Century Fox. I don't know just something about hearing that fanfare. It gives me chills honestly.

Others I liked growing up. All of these now are different from 20-25 years ago.

Universal Pictures

Warner Bros.

Paramount Pictures

Screen Gems/Columbia-Tristar/Sony Pictures

Disney's The Classic Castle Logo

Dimension Films (Simple but Effective)

New Line Cinema

I know this might seem like a stupid thread. But I've grew up with these watching some of my fave movies. And alot like when you go to the movies to see trailers. Seeing these opening intro's/logo's bring back so many happy memories for me. Whether I saw them at the theaters or at home. if i forgot any of your faves. Just feel free to post them.

I like the 70's Universal logo.

Visco. · 06-03-2014, 07:18 PM

The retro WB logo.

Petra_Kalbrain · 06-03-2014, 07:19 PM

Not a stupid thread at all.

I've ways been partial to the New Line intro myself for some reason. Recently, I have loved what Warner Bros. have been doing to try and blend the logo into the theme and start of their films. To an extent, Paramount has sort of done the same with their stars and/or mountain when applicable.

I can't watch them without thinking of the Family Guy parody.

animefan77 · 06-03-2014, 07:23 PM

I alway liked the New Line Cinema.

And I know this probably doesn't count, but the Intro to the IMAX film is impressive, especially in 3D.

God yes...sometimes the IMAX intro is the best part.

That's one of the only times I've actually been impressed with 3D.

Another good one. I'll always see that and think of Ghostbusters.

Thomas Guycott · 06-03-2014, 07:41 PM

I was extremely disappointed not to see the Toho logo in front of the new Godzilla:

The silence really gives it a sense of regalness, in my opinion.

Edit: Bonus "Tohoscope" screen with fanfare from The Mysterians:

klauswhereareyou · 06-03-2014, 07:42 PM

Not sure if they even use it anymore but I always liked the Dreamworks logo, probably because it meant a new Spielberg movie.

That is my favorite move

Jennifer Lawrence Fan · 06-03-2014, 07:34 PM

I just associate certain movies with those logo's intro's.

Like with New Line I'll always think of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trilogy, along with all the A Nightmare On Elm Street Films.

Warner Bros with Gremlins and Goonies.

FOX with Star Wars, even though I was never the biggest fan. So I'm sure that will seem weird to those that see it next year and no Fanfare playing.

Not really a studio intro. But I liked seeing the Amblin logo.

Gold Ranger · 06-04-2014, 12:53 AM

New Line Cinema
TriStar
The Old HBO logo/intro!

NOTHING is more epic than this:

That was a great one

I don't like having to hear the music for the longer version of the Universal logo. Felt the same way when Paramount changed theirs in the 1990s. I do like like when the logo morphs into something or shifts right into the movie. Like when the WB logo before Conspiracy Theory turns into a sign on a bus or when the sky behind the logo is dark for Batman Returns. Not the best examples but i am you know what i mean. I even like when the the use the old version of the logo before a movie like American hustle or Argo. And I always liked seeing the 20th century fox logo before Star Wars.
