Universal Pictures debuts new logo to celebrate 100th Anniversary


Universal Pictures will be celebrating their 100th Anniversary this year and to kick off celebrations they debuted a new logo today. I think it looks fantastic. Updated but still recognizable. In addition to the "100th Anniversary" text below the studio name the logo now has the badge that says "A Comcast Company" to reflect the recent corporate changes that have occurred.

The studio also announced that an extensive restorration process has begun to protect the legacy of some of their most classic films including All Quiet on the Western Front, Dracula, E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial, Frankenstein, Jaws, Out of Africa, Schindler's List, The Sting, and To Kill a Mockingbird. Additionally studio president Ron Meyer promises parades in Universal's Orlando theme park, tours of the company's remarkable archives and promotions at major film festivals, maybe with talent in attendance.
