Universal Pictures 1982 w/ Fanfare

This is indeed an extremely rare logo; it contains an actual fanfare! Aw, who am I kidding? The logo from 1963-1990 rarely had a fanfare. But this is another of my logo spoofs; this is the 1982 Universal Pictures logo with a somewhat extended version of the long 1964 Universal Television fanfare (which itself is a slowed-down version of the 1958 Revue theme). Enjoy!

Special thanks to ShaDeed329 for letting me use the long Universal Television theme (from his Universal Television Spoof Montage vid), Morality124 for the MTE spoof (which I used at the beginning) and LogicalSmash for the logo itself.

Loved the use of this old Universal indent with Drag Me to Hell.

You mean the actual logo minus the made-up music, right?

[moogyboy6]

I think it actually works really well; the only thing I would have done is added a bit of reverb to make the fanfare more spacious and majestic.

[supremetaco]

Thanks! And yeah, that is a good idea.

Is this made up or from a movie?

[supremetaco]

The music is made up. Sorta. I took the first seven notes of an MTE spoof made by Morality 124, slowed them down and altered them, and combined them with the full 1964 Universal Television theme.

The visual logo is from a 1982 movie; the name of which escapes me.

The 1960's A Universal Picture logo was used in Inglorious Basterds.

New to me, this is *the* Universal Logo heme DELUXE....worthy of something that cecil B. DeMille woulda used (Had he not been with Paramount)..

Though I am kinda surprised that Speilberg never used this in any of *his* Universal films..

Thanx, thanx, THANX, m8...

[bWildcat1]

This is very good I wish they would use it!

[letticiarsd898]

Gee, I wished ALL Universal films opened this way... The Flintstones did this (or a reasonable facsimile) in 1994.

I think it's good combination if that 80´s universal logo could use it...
