    I like how in the earlier stages, the lion was just kinda chill, then as the years went on he got more and more pissed off
  • Oh, I do love that scene (6:44 / 7:06). Seeing either Jerry or Tom imitating the MGM lion's roar was one o' the best things in the world to me when I was a kid.
  • @johnskeeeee
    I can’t believe I spent 2 and a half minutes waiting for the lion to finally roar
  • @DedricSilva
    So the Lion in the early years from 1916-1934 it's just laying there confused like "Why am i here?"

    I love that their logo shows off what the do. They had a living moving logo as they are a motion picture company and then when they started doing sound movies they added a roar. You can tell how excited they must have been to add the roar.
  • 2:40 That one looked evil as hell by the lighting, followed by the most innocent sounding roar.

    1916 Lion: Wait, are we rolling? Uh, okay, um... what’s my line again?
  • @LukeMM95
    I miss MGM. You knew you were in for something special when the film begins with that iconic roar.

    7:01 the most nostalgic, I remember this one when binge watching tom and jerry episodes on boomerang when i was 6
  • @shannhazful
    The early lions were so chill you can see the 1925 lion politely cleared his throat in the middle of filming

    The lion I remember the most is Tanner, from years of watching old MGM cartoons (like Tom & Jerry, Droopy, Barney Bear, and those other Tex Avery classics) on Cartoon Network in my childhood.
  • 03:39 The golden years of MGM with Marx Brothers roar. If company allows trolling with its main logo, you know it's making quality stuff. Disney would have no such thing today.

    I remember seeing the MGM logos for classic Tom and Jerry cartoons when I was a kid. The vast majority of pre-May 1986 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer titles are currently the property of Turner Entertainment Co. and are thus currently distributed by their WarnerMedia (formerly known as Time Warner after it merged with AT&T when it was sold to AT&T) sister company Warner Bros. I'm hoping Warner Bros. should buy MGM so they could reunite with MGM if they already bought MGM.
