Supporting Evidence
Constantine (2005) - Logo swept away by the fires of hell
The Simpsons (2007) - Ralph Wiggum trumps out the fanfare
Scott Pilgrim (2010) - Universal logo rendered as 8-bit animation
Pitch Perfect (2012) - Universal theme sung a cappella
Upgrade (2018) - Studio credits read by ominous System Shock type voice
Bob’s Burgers (2022) - altered FOX fanfare audio.
Spider-Men in Spider-Verses (2018/2023) - Multiversal glitches
Hypothesis
Film makers invested so much in their own product that they’ve got around to thinking about how the studio credits play out are dedicated to making a good movie
Criteria (edited)
Due to eligibility requirements (published separately), some films have had to be excluded. These include The Flintstones (1994), Waterworld (1995), Matrix Resurrections (2021) and Tomorrowland (2015). I am however confident that these exclusions don’t affect the validity of my theory, and am confident in going forward.
Have you seen a film with transformed credits that was actually dog pops?
If not, I’ll go work this up and submit it to the relevant journals.
oh shit I completely forgot this movie existed (I have not see it and don’t plan too), it’s for real?
It’s worth a watch, but it is entirely forgettable. I remember exactly one scene from it and none of the plot.
I expected nothing of that movie, and I was still disappointed.
