'''Music/Sounds:''' A synthesized fanfare with synth "jingles" that play throughout the piece until the JVC byline fades in, composed by James Horner. The "jingles" play 7 times before the fanfare switches to a different key for the remainder of the theme. When the JVC byline fades in, the theme ends with what sounds like a synth hum. Sometimes, the opening theme of the movie is heard. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A synthesized fanfare with synth "jingles" that play throughout the piece until the JVC byline fades in, composed by James Horner.
