I like this topic. I actually always bring this up when watching flicks.

The main two:

1) Star Wars and 20th Century Fox. I consider that to be part of the Star Wars score.

2) Grease and Paramount.

Well, I only have a few:

20th Century Fox -- STAR WARS

Paramount Pictures -- The INDIANA JONES trilogy, because of the mountain fade at the beginning of each flick

MGM -- Definitely the JAMES BOND flicks

Warner Bros. -- SUPERMAN and BATMAN flicks

Sony -- SPIDER-MAN

Universal Studios -- THE MUMMY series (old and new)

That's about it...

There are some companies, that whenever I see their logos and hear their music I think of a certain movie.

20th Century Fox: Every time I see the logo and hear the fanfare, I expect it to go right into the Star Wars theme.

With New Line: same thing, after the logo and music I expect to hear someone yell out Mortal Kombat! It's just stuck in the brain.
