Not MGM, but this logo seems inspired by a certain other studio:

Real ones through the years This must be one of the longest running logos around....although Coca-Cola's logo is even older (I've spotted advertisements with Coca-Cola's logo in 1910s silent films) |

Just for fun, here's a cute variation of the Columbia logo in which the Columbia Torch Lady dances. Yet another reason to love the 1970s:

This is said to be them filming the roaring MGM lion. Looks pretty quiet at the moment.  |

Another funny MGM variation, a rarity. The uploader, LogicSmash, has an amazing collection of logos on his YouTube channel.

I seem to remember other parodies of the old logos ... Will looks for more Columbias to share, if that's ok. Another fun thread, Matthew the Swordsman. |

For those who really love parodies of the MGM logo, here's a big compilation of MTM logo variations, some really amusing: |

MGM had an audio parody on The Glass Bottom Boat (1966) where the last roar is replaced by the sound of a foghorn.
Columbia, in addition to the dancing torch land on Thank God It's Friday had four others....
Strait-Jacket (1964) The Torch Lady is shown decapitated
Cat Ballou (1965) Torch Lady turns into a cartoon of Jane Fonda who doffs the robes to reveal a western gunslinger outfit underneath.
The Mouse That Roared (1959) Lady screams and bolts from the podium when she finds a mouse under her robe.
The Trouble with Angels (1966) Cartoon version of Hayley Mills blows the torch out.
