The one with the globe lighting up just makes me think of our old house... us gathered round the TV... watching The Snowman on DVD... drinking hot chocolate... good times.
I always loved the 1990-1997 theme from movies I watched on VHS growing up, maybe it's not as triumphant and cathartic as the post-1997 theme but it still sounds gorgeous and elegant in its own right.
💯 I was born in 1986, so I grew up with this one and the one prior. But the early 90's theme has always had a special sound to my ears. It almost sounds happy and peaceful. 😄
Well, I was born in the same year when Universal celebrated its 100 anniversary so if I get to live to see the 200th anniversary, I’ll be 100 years old when I first time, see it
I have so much nostalgia for the 97-2012 one. I was born in 97 so that’s the one I grew up with. The current one is incredible though, when you’re actually sat in a cinema seeing it, it sends a chill down your spine
I personally love the current one out of all of them. It's big, bombastic and befitting the name "Universal" Like it's hyping me up to go on an epic adventure. Which is exactly what it should be.
The best one was between 1997 and 2012. If you compare it closely to the current one, you'll notice that they got rid of the second "boom-boom" for some reason, which was a mistake in my opinion. The theme lost in epicness a bit and doesn't sound as satisfying. Like you can feel it's missing something. Second "boom-boom", that's what. 🥲

The theme from 2012 - 2013, (5:27) is from Casper. The part where Christina and Devon danced. This was when Devon was looking at the time because his time as a human was up.
@@omarthehedgehog2010 There's a pretty decent mini documentary on how they made the old HBO Feature Presentation opening. These old intros used the same method. Googling for documentaries on how they filmed the original Star Wars trilogy or the original Star Trek Series should also give you a good idea. Making movies and special effects wa a completely different art form back in the day and involved lots of modelling of the physical sort.
The new movie "Knock at the Cabin" uses the 1960-1987 version of the intro, with "A Comcast Company" at the bottom of screen. This was apparently done at the request of M Night Shyamalan.
1990's 75th anniversary version is _definitely_ the best. I always associate it with Back to the Future Part III. I love the idea of running through several of the older versions while a lone horn plays the theme alongside some tinkly chimes before building into the full orchestral version. They clearly attempted to recreate that with some of their subsequent versions, particularly the centennial one with its larger orchestra, but it doesn't quite hit the same.
Does anyone know what movie got the logo at 5:21? The music being used is "One Last Wish" from the first live-action Casper movie, and it's a rather curious choice instead of the usual Universal tune.
the 1962-1990 one kinda scared me when I was little, something about the planet appearing out of the darkness was unsettling. The 1991-1997 and 1997-2012 ones felt pretty magical though.
Jerry Goldsmith, composer of Rudy, Hoosiers, Gremlins and many more, composed the currently used music for universal intro with the two big drum beats. It debuted in The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)
The only logos still wrong is the first 2, the 1910 - 1918 logo is actually from 1913 - 1914, and the 1918 - 1919 logo is actually from 1914 - 1918, still nice though.

The 1935-1948, 1948-1962, and 1962-1990 logos are common for me (even though I was born in 1999) because I watched a bunch of old Woody Woodpecker cartoons on MeTV's Saturday Morning Cartoons block and MeTV Toons. Not only did they use these logos for Woody Woodpecker, but also for other Walter Lantz cartoons like Andy Panda, Chilly Willy, and The Beary Family.
1991-1997 stuck more to me, personally. I watched a lot more universal movies from that era when i was younger. I did see a few from the 1997-2012 era but I got uninterested after the 2013 version. Not even as a 6 year old (how old i was at the time) did i really like it. But hey, it could just be nostalgia holding me back from seeing its potential.
That's one movie I can watch over and over again. I'm nearing 40, so when me and my friends all get together, it's just automatically some judd apatow comedy we throw on that we've seen a dozen times, but scott pilgrim is the only one I really pay attention to. ,

The 1990-1997 globe is light blue, the 1997-2012 globe is dark blue.
I like universal
The 1989-1997 globe is light blue, the 1997-2012 globe is dark blue.
Because the logo and graphics changed and the camera started at the top and then the ground was glowing. In 1989 the logo was far from the earth and 1997 was near.
And the globe they had since 2012 is straight up cerulean.

Like it's hyping me up to go on an epic adventure. Which is exactly what it should be.
1990s sounded more nostalgic. It fit everything for that era.
Don’t compare
Same, it's beautiful. And the curved logo calls back to the '35 one nicely, which is still my second favorite.

And thanks to legendary Jerry Goldsmith who gave us that theme
And to brilliant Brian Tyler for amazing re-arrangement in post 2012 era

I like that. Version too. I also grew up with the 1991-2012 version with the colors
Cause the Centennial one ends before the final logo.
