Ugh, I hate when they change the logos. MGM is missing from this thread it seems, it looks so stupid to watch a 50 year old film and have it start with a MGM.com logo.

Couldn’t agree more! One problem I have with the 007 blu-rays… Weird seeing Connery films with the mgm.com thing. Even the Brosnan films had changes… removal of the the UA logos… The World Is Not Enough had the MGM 75th anniversary logo changed as well.

This is why I always get films (plastered with the MGM logo on current releases) on VHS. There is also the horrible international plastering (I found a Swedish print of an MGM film and there was no MGM logo. There was the Svensk Filmindustri logo instead)

I could definitely support something like this. Warner Bros., Paramount, and Disney are three studios that immediately pop to mind that frequently replace the original studio logo at the start of their films on rereleases, both theatrical and on home video. I never really understood why. As the one user above noted, losing the original Pixar version of the Disney castle at the start of Toy Story is definitely a loss. I miss the old Paramount logo and theme at the start of Grease and would definitely like to see Willy Wonka with the Paramount logo. There’s definitely other examples but those definitely spring to mind.

It’s a recreation but keeps the logo intact
