I can’t believe it’s been 12 years since this debuted in front of The Lorax! Weta’s VFX and Brian Tyler’s arrangement of the 1997 fanfare have aged incredibly well! 😁🎞
Still one of my absolute favourite songs. Never gets old. EDIT: I just rewatched it a few times and just ONE of those times a cloud passed over my house right as the letters did in the video.
I'm an aspiring scriptwriter, and whenever I get dejected or depressed about whatever I'm working on, I listen to this theme, and I'm reminded why I want to write in the first place. This track, I believe, is the perfect embodiment of cinema itself: wondrous, full of awe, and with the promise of uncountable adventures.
That's beautiful. And that's good that this song makes you feel better. Anytime that song plays I always think of Major Payne. One of my favorite movies. (My list of favorite movies is very short because I don't watch very many movies.)
There's nothing terribly wrong with the logo, you see. It just sometimes shows up inappropriately for certain movies on video and it's usually loud and obnoxious in those movies. It's appropriate for a big-budget theatrical release, but on something like The Tale of the Princess Kaguya it's deplorable.
Saw that one for the very first time in my hometown, host to one of Western Europe's biggest theaters that is also classed as a national heritage site in Paris : The Grand Rex. Don't miss that place if you ever come by the city. It still rings to me as if it was yesterday. Literally unforgettable moments. So true in fact that today, I recall the emotions I felt with the intro, and not even the movie that followed !
Watching this gave me the kind of goosebumps that the best movies made in the last 100 years have. Fantastic piece of work. I think it's the music that does it.
I can't think of anything else in the world that brings this much pomp & circumstance. That announces this much presence. That demands this much attention. Wow. And it's so fitting now that Comcast, supreme ruler of audiovisual media, owns them. Hats off to whoever designed/composed this.
Jerry Goldsmith was the one who initially composed the melody but was revamped by a man I believe by the name of Bryan Tyler for the centennial version, he added an array of drums and other instruments as well as choir.
Each time I see the Universal Pictures intro, I have a deep feeling. A mix of pride, dignity, sort of power not about me but about the entire humanity. It's so spectacular, all these continents scrolling and our dear planet rotating...I don't know how to express what I feel correctly
I went and saw "The Bourne Legacy" with my Mom back in August; she hadn't seen this logo yet, so when the movie started, she said "Whoa, that's pretty cool." I had already seen it on "The Lorax" months earlier, but was still totally thrilled by it, even without this music playing over it.
great logo. I've always liked it. I'm so used to the old one (cause I don't watch movies much) but this one just looks so cinamatic and beautiful. They really have done a good job
Great to hear Jerry Goldsmith's excellent fanfare has been kept and received a good but subtle update by the acclaimed Brian Tyler. Bravo Universal for remembering Jerry Goldsmith's art.
Most kids today will never know what it was like growing up with the old Universal logo and the music was without the harmony, and then this one dropped out of nowhere and it was so much better it was mindblowing
This is probably one of the only movie logos that the newest version is the best one. Often times people like the older logos because of nostalgia (e.g. Walt Disney Pictures, Paramount Pictures, 20th Century Fox). But this one, *It's perfect!*
FX/SFX: The panning of the planet, the company name rising, the continents glowing. All brilliant CGI effects, and is reminiscent of the 1990 and 1997 logos.
i love very much the logo of universal studio, its very big and beautiful logo. sound like very expensive company, only the rich people can make movies.
Availability: Current. It can be seen on newer films from the company. The 100th anniversary logo was first unveiled on January 10, 2012, and is currently available on Universal's RUclips channel. It made its theatrical debut with Dr. Seuss' The Lorax (also the first Illumination film to use it, and although trailers and TV spots for it had the previous logo) and made its last appearance on Mama. It was also seen on the Australian film Mental. The version without the "100TH ANNIVERSARY" wording debuted theatrically on Identity Thief, although it previously appeared at the end of Universal's Cinematic Spectacular: 100 Years of Movie Memories at Universal Studios Florida, on trailers for movies released in 2013, and on the Blu-ray release of Vertigo. This has plastered the 1997 logo on an airing of The Perfect Man on TBS and Big Fat Liar on Disney Channel and Freeform with the previous logo's fanfare. It has also been used as a de-facto home entertainment logo since 2012. This logo also appears on international prints of MGM films (the ones distributed by United Artists Releasing) since 2019. This logo also appears on reprints of DreamWorks Animation films, starting in 2018, and on newer films from said studio in 2019, beginning with How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. A few examples of plastering include it being added to the 2021 UHD of Shrek and digital prints of Shark Tale, plastering the final 20th Century Fox logo at the start of newer prints of the movies they released, and plastering the Paramount Pictures closing logo on the 2018 Blu-ray of Over the Hedge (going straight to the DreamWorks Animation logo at the end) and relocating to the start, among other examples. It is unlikely Universal will use a closing variant on these new prints as a result. It also appeared on anime shows distributed by NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan that are licensed by Funimation, as well as Jurassic World: Evolution, Jurassic World: Evolution 2, Fast & Furious: Showdown and Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious.

Never ever change the theme.
It is way too epic to change and choir makes it better.
And the snare drums at the end have just enough impact to give people goosebumps. 🤘
Oh I'm sure they could dial up the epicness to 11. They just don't want to do it too quickly or it will lose its appeal.
yeah except for minions/despicable me movies
@@GoldDinosaurYeah, well, too bad those movies suck.
I honestly prefer the predecessor of this theme but If they decide for It to stick i can't do anything can i lol

I didn't learn until today that Jerry Goldsmith had scored the Universal Logo... a great piece by one of the greatest film score composers!
He did the original version in 1997, this update is by Brian Tyler, both majestic

And it’s been 10 years since the normal version of this logo.
It had to make it’s debut with the movie with the ShE’s A wOmAn joke
I hate this logo of Universal Pictures. It's James Horner Universal logo all right, not some dork.
The best interface so far and will remain the best over time and history
No way! Raaaaar! ruclips.net/video/XVEflECtfBM/видео.html
This is beautiful. It really is. It encompasses the "bigger than life" feeling that movies give to us within mere seconds.
Yes
A beautiful fusion of the classic and recent UNIVERSAL logos into one glorious homage to Universal. Absolutely stunning.

Shut the *bleep* up!
In my opinion this is a very boring logo, I miss the 1990 version of the universal logo it was much better.
why would people hate it
Instruments used in this intro:
Trumpet

I could listen and watch this over and over again. Really well done Brian Tyler, orchestra, and motion graphics team!
WETA Digital were responsible for the new logo's design, along with that of Walt Disney Pictures.
Cool, thanks for letting me know.
Andrew Cortesi but he doesn't top off the late James Horner.
I love James Horner as well. Wasn't denying that. But right now we're talking about the score for the Universal logo animation.
Cannot come close to Jerry Goldsmith.
This is always my fav part of all the movies :'D

Jerry Goldsmith composed this for the 1997 logo. Bryan Tyler reorchestrated it.
There is ... one other thing ...
[Insert THX sound]
This version is by far, the best intro music ever composed! Please never change it!
Imagine a “U” shaped solar eclipse.
Wouldn’t that be a partial eclipse?

Did you show your mom the music after?
Idk why, but I always love coming back to this video sooner or later.
you know the movie is gonna be so damn epic when this intro starts
Hell yea it is
"Founded April 30, 1912; 110 years ago". Soon enough, it will be your 110th birthday, Universal.
great logo. I've always liked it. I'm so used to the old one (cause I don't watch movies much) but this one just looks so cinamatic and beautiful. They really have done a good job

It’s been 12 years….. and it’s never forgotten, it will never be forgotten
This is my number one most favorite logo when the energy increases with this soundtrack 😂
I remember first seeing this in theaters in the beginning of The Lorax and was like "DAMN!"
Am I the only one who felt the movie theater shaking when this started playing? XD

Imagine seeing this in the theater, and telling people "You know, I played the tuba for that"
I love this intro, it’s so beautiful. Listening to this all the time makes me think of Universal Studios Hollywood.
lindo...o clássico sempre é clássico, mas tava na hora de mudar!!!
If they ever reboot Superman I want his theme song to sound something like this. It just sounds so powerful and proud
Most kids today will never know what it was like growing up with the old Universal logo and the music was without the harmony, and then this one dropped out of nowhere and it was so much better it was mindblowing
The best intro of all the productions in history is the one that makes me feel good

That was the whole point.
It's because "UN" is big so it's not popped up.
actually it is not a mistake, it was made for artistic purposes
The 2012 Universal Logo Looks Great.
This logo is awesome! I watched The Lorax today and it was awesome too! If I watched this intro in 3D, my mind would explode!!!
10 years from now this music is so good, great job universal studios you guys did a great job making this
Over a decade later, and this rendition of the fanfare is STILL the best one by far.
Don't ever change the fanfare. It's REALLY majestic!!!
the best logo ever made period
