A fauxgo (fake logo) is a symbol or other small design created to represent a fictional company or organization that exists only on film.
The first logo is representing the Umbrella Corporation from the movie Resident Evil (2002). You can see a variation of this logo in the background from the third episode.
McDowell’s, Coming to America (1988)
Wilderness Explorer, UP (2009)
Aperture Laboratories, Portal (2007)
Weyland-Yutani Corp, Aliens (1986)
Mr. Fusion, Back to the Future Part II (1989)
Dinoco, Cars (2006)
Omni Consumer Products, Robocop (1987)
Jurassic Park (1993)
Monsters Incorporated, Monsters Inc (2001)
Ghostbusters (1984)
Buy N Large, WALL-E (2008)

Great set. Thanks for sharing the pictures
Food branding from Repo Man.
Coincidentally, a spinoff from Cheers.
Was that a spin-off from actual generic products from the 80’s?

Is anyone here old enough to have caught this one episode of Otherworld (a very short lived TV series, mid-80s) that sticks in most people’s mind who saw it? Mom went shopping at the grocery store and this is what she finds.

I’ve never seen Otherworld, but here’s a commercially available beer we have here in New Zealand. Similar?
