Best Title Sequences

Thread started: May 16 2009, 11:15 PM EDT Watch

I sort of screwed up in an "opening" thread with titles but I wanted to make a specific thread about the best works in the title sequences. Personal favorites (as I mentioned in that thread):
-Goldfinger: The classiness of the golden girl with the scenes from the movie on top of her...great stuff
-YOLT: Perfect mood setter: the Japanese style, the exploding volcano, just sets up the movie
-OHMSS: "We have all the time in the world"...not much more you can say alongside Barry's epic instrumental
-LALD: Very freaky but in a good way with the voodoo set-up
-TLD: Sort of finally moved away from the silhouettes with a great intro that was classy and real (though somehow LTK wasn't as good with that)
-Goldeneye: the only "modern CGI" opening I've liked, perfectly set-up the gap and the "fall of the Cold War"

Do you find this valuable?

3. The Man With The Golden Gun
So ... boring compared to how spectacular LALD was, THOUGH the gun pointed over the girl in the lily pond and those scenes were nice but... out of whack compared to how fast the song is... those scenes would have like worked for "All the Time in the World."

AFTER THOUGHTS
BEST MOMENTS

TWINE: The Sun, and Oil Derricks, The Oil People

TND: The Bullet People, The Shy looking girl whose necklace floats around her turning into space.

GE: The Gun shooting the Flags away

GF: The License plate flipping, The flashing neon lights girl.

DAD: The Fire And Ice figures

AVTAK: Just the seductive Dancers/Posers well picked bunch, Kudos to the MakeUp Department.

OP: The Cyclone with the Earth in the Center.

MR: The FIRST part with the moon and first few jumpers and the falling circus fair... very wonderful... then it goes to hell.

DAF: The music, and the FEEL is there just probably needed another week of tweaking and it would have been easily one of the best.

TMWGG: The woman under the Lily Pond water.

TLD: Figures running across that lightly bubbled water.

TSWLM: The Marching women and the Russian figure, and English figure always watching eachother's back.

OHMSS: Clock and Hourglass...

FYEO: The Water treatments...

......... Oh hell I can't think of all the scenes I liked... I've said enough... HAHAHA

I would LOVE to debate this topic with someone, then possibly send it to my Professor to see if he thinks I'm making good valid points using, History, Technical knowledge and limitations of time, Money, and Technology of digital effects at the time. So please... someone get mad at a point I made so I can defend my point!

HAHA Don't tell me ALL my points are completely valid and acceptable. X3
