Atomic Monster

Background
Atomic Monster Productions is the production company of James Wan, founded in 2014.

1st Logo (2016–2021)
Nicknames: "Atomic Hero", "CGI Hero", "Attack of the Tentacles!"

Logo: We fade in to a shot of a skyline facing towards the sky, with 2 tentacles taller than the buildings squirming about. A white object then flies in, leaving a trail behind it, and shoots a beam at one of the tentacles, splitting it and causing it to fall. It then proceeds to shoot down the other one, and the camera pans down to reveal a tentacle wrapped around a building. The thing then comes into clearer view, revealing itself to be a white humanoid robot with an old-fashioned diver's helmet for a head, and it shoots down a tentacle that just came in off frame. Swooping to the right, it shoots down another tentacle, does a half-turn, and then plummets into the ground, where the camera follows it and particle effects can be seen when it slams into the ground. It then shoots a beam out from its face and scans it from left to right, revealing the radioactive yellow text "ATOMIC MONSTER" with the "O" replaced with a revolving atom, and it strikes an action pose. The background fades to black, the robot gains a white outline, and the atom continues to revolve until the logo fades out. The entire logo, apart from the text, is in greyscale and is presented in a small square with film effects.

Variant: A short version is used on MacGyver, where it starts with the robot shooting out the beam.

FX/SFX: The robot flying and destroying the tentacles, the name forming. Cool animation by Filmograph.

Music/Sounds: None or the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Common. It can be seen on Lights Out. Strangely, this logo does not appear on Annabelle, The Conjuring II, and Annabelle: Creation. Despite being replaced in 2018, the logo remained in use on MacGyver until the series' end.

Editor's Note: A really cool homage to the science fiction and monster movies of the 50's, although the CGI does look a bit iffy at places.
