If perhaps there was a sandwich,
Sauerkraut and pastrami.

One particularly interesting example was for The Incredibles. A very subtle swirling Incredibles logo was used as the cue mark. @wh0rfin called it the Incredicue.
In 1992, PDI-LA was on the fourth floor of Raleigh Studios. On that same hallway was the office of Burt Metcalfe.
Early in my time there, we chatted as we rode up on the elevator.
He was one of the first famous people I met in Hollywood, and he was super friendly and nice.
The novel All You Need Is Kill (on which the film Edge Of Tomorrow was based) has this interesting chart on the table of contents page. I’ve been referring to it at the end of each section of a chapter.
