This is Us or This are Us - Which is correct?

The pronoun "us" is almost exclusively used as a subject, whereas "we" acts as its object counterpart. The sentence "This is us" is grammatically correct as it follows the subject-verb-object construction. "This is we" is also an appropriate construction, but sounds old-fashioned.
