Tanner was the MGM lion whose roar opened the studio's Technicolor films from 1934 to 1956, including The Wizard of Oz. His fuller, deeper roar became the version most audiences associate with the classic Hollywood logo, and later clip compilations and soundboards preserved it as the definitive MGM roar. Online it is used like the dun-dun sting or the Imperial March: a cue that something epic is about to happen, from fake movie-logo opens to gloriously overblown entrances.

The deep, full-throated roar of Tanner, the MGM lion heard at the start of classic films. Creators drop it as a grand intro or a punchline before a reveal.
This is the famous roar of Tanner, the MGM lion, captured in a short three-and-a-half-second clip. It starts as a low guttural growl, rolls up through a raspy, rattling snarl, and bursts into a full-throated bellow with a raw, gravelly edge you can feel in your chest. Generations of moviegoers heard this exact roar before the curtain lifted on classic Hollywood films, so it carries an instant charge of cinematic authority. Dropped into a meme or edit, it turns anything into a grand premiere: the sound alone makes a tiny joke feel epic and an ordinary moment feel larger than life.
