Universal's Cinematic Spectacular: 100 Years of Movie Memories is a lagoon show at Universal Studios Florida. The attraction replaced Universal 360: A Cinesphere Spectacular in the park's center Lagoon. It features famous scenes from Universal Pictures films projected onto large waterfall screens mixed with fountains and pyrotechnics. The show is narrated by actor Morgan Freeman, and is part of the 100th anniversary celebrations for Universal Studios throughout 2012. It opened on May 8, 2012. The music for the "spectacular" is a combination of scores from different films, with some original pieces composed by Brian Tyler, who also adapted Jerry Goldsmith's Universal Pictures fanfare for the studio's current logo and composed the "Universal Centennial Fanfare" that was also based on Goldsmith's fanfare.
