Everyone’s seen the 20th Century Fox and Universal logos tons of times, but it’s always fun when they do something fun with it that fits with the movie. Some of my favourites are the Columbia woman beating up some zombies in Zombieland: Double Tap and Ralph Wiggum singing the 20th Century theme in The Simpsons Movie. The Universal logo resetting itself for Happy Death Day was good for the first couple times but the joke got old after a bit
The one that always sticks with me is when the Paramount logo fades away to reveal an identical mountain at the beginning of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
Harry Potter - I think the last two movies had a very old looking, beaten up looking logo of WB signifying dark days are coming.
The globe in the Universal logo was flooded in Waterworld.
I think Universal generally does this sort of thing the best.
In Pitch Perfect, the logo was normal, but they used an a cappella version of the fanfare.
I love how it gradually gets darker each movie like how The Walking Dead logo decomposes over seasons 1-9
That’s a great one! Everything in that movie is perfect
Dreamworks Intro Madagascar. The penguin beats the kid on the moon
The fly over of the Paramount logo into Zamunda in the opening of Coming to America is fun.
Spiderman: into the Spiderverse had a fun one for Columbia
Pretty simple compared to the other examples but for E.T. The Extra Terrestrial they play the 70s Universal logo in reverse, so instead of zooming into the Earth it flies away into space

Disney had a unique one for the Recess film from the early 2000s. It started off as a regular opening and then all six of the lead characters appeared and performed the rest of the intro music.
I like Kung Fu Panda’s alternate opening logo for Dreamworks.
I always loved the 20th Century Fox theme variant used in 'WAR OF THE PLANET OF THE APES' (2017). Still gives me chills.
The Universal logo which transitions directly to the opening in Serenity with ships launching was fun.
Also, wasn't also used for Mars in the Doom movie?
And then using thnactual orchestral universal music for Chris Evans is hilarious.
They did that gaging all the Indy movies, right? And notoriously it was the CGI prairie dog hill in Crystal Skull.
>he globe in the Universal logo was flooded in Waterworld.
This was the first one I thought of as well.

2 Fast 2 Furious opening with Universal logo
That 's clever for the Walking Dead. It symbolizes the quality of the writing in the show.
And the neck adjust thing for the bass.
Columbia pictures lady grows hair for grudge2 ...it still haunts me

Always liked the 8bit Universal logo used for Scott Pilgrim vs The World.
