Paramount & Warner Bros (especially when they are a bit different, like for Sherlock Homes..)

That's why I love Universal, because it's so easy and fun to make it correspond with the film that follows. For example, Waterworld. What a great studio intro.

I can't think how Warner Bros. has ever changed their intro too much, and Paramount never do, but it's iconic which is why I like it.

I don't know what you mean by too much but they often match the logo to the style and the feel of the movie. HP series comes to mind first.

1. Fox (just because of the classic orchestra music)
2. MGM (the lion)
3. WB (sometimes they play with their logo which I find cool)

MGM's, with Leo the Lion, is my favorite. Among the major distributors and studios, I also dig the Warner Bros. and Universal logos a lot.

There are a couple logos for more modest companies I also love, such as:

EuropaCorp


Mandalay


Scott Free

There all pretty solid and have had great things over the year. I love the end whistle to more traditional Disney logo for instance. But if I had to pick. Paramount with Indiana Jones is probably my favorite still. Overall.

1. Fox- Defining Music, and always have a lot of fun.
2. MGM- Classic and simple, love the tiger.
3. Tristar

1. 20th Century Fox


2. Universal


3. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM)


4. Columbia


5. Paramount


Lionsgate would've made the list if they still used the old one. The new one looks like its from a cheap DTV studio.

I like Lionsgate's intro. The one with the cogs.

I was just thinking about this yesterday.

Carolco (which you noted): Almost always a good action type film would follow.


I also kind of like Filmdistrict.

Post subject:  Re: Favourite Studio Intro

Yeah, man I love Carolco. When I see and hear that intro, I just think RAMBO. It's 100% RAMBO. Love it.

Film District are also kind of good.

That's the one I like. This is the new one.



Fine, but boring.

New one is not good.

Also, this new one's music is so ripping off other studios (can't place which one but I know it is).

Post subject:  Re: Favourite Studio Intro

It's like a mix of Tristar and 20th

The only point I'll add is I've Paramount was genius enough to do the morph with the Indiana Jones films, does anyone know if Raiders dears originated that style? The Burbs is the best Universal intro of all time IMO

Great thread and I'll have to think about this one a bit.

Yeah, more Tristar than Fox but that's it. The cogs were so much better. Though I understand they wanted to get away from the "cogs = Saw" branding.

I think I like both disney and paramount originals to what they have now

Post subject:  Re: Favourite Studio Intro

I like the classic MGM lion. That's my favorite.

I also like how Universal and Warner Brothers will sometimes edit their logo in some way to connect it to the film.

And of course Fox for the classic theme.

1. MGM
2. Fox
3a. Warner Brothers
3b. Universal
