MEAN and MASSIVE

If you love superheros, you love their costumes. What’s a superhero without his cape? The Avengers‘ end title sequence, designed by Method Design, is a tribute to superheros’ costumes, as it presents them in extreme close-ups, so detailed, until you feel you can smell it from your seat. Here’s what Method Design write on their [...]

SEB: game of thrones season 2, It was a busy week on TV, but since some holidays are heavier than others, I skipped some posts- so here’s a quick summary of this week on TV. The biggest event was the premiere of HBO’s new fantasy drama Game Of Thrones, which generated such good responses that [...]

SEB: Shameless Showtime s01e02, Shameless US 102 reviewShameless was again very good, and I think thisepisode was betterthan the premiere last week. The second episode of the first season revealed the show’s wonderful title sequence, in which we see the different uses of the family’s toilets. I love Shameless’ title sequence because it is interesting, [...]

I recently ran into some very good covers for the Mad Men intro song. The original opening credits sequence uses the song “A Beautiful Mine” by RJD2, whos songs feature in other series, such as CSI:NY, the movie Paradox, and various advertisements. Adam Ben Ezra plays the Bass and turns it into 10 different instruments, [...]

This war ends here. -Nucky Thompson What a great episode of Boardwalk Empire, a brilliant finish to a brilliant first season. HBO proved again they can mix blood and style to perfection, and this remains the case also in an episode with many happy, or almost happy, moments. If The Walking Dead gave us a [...]

We’re never coming back here again, are we? -Britt Terriers finale episode used everything it had to give us the best ride of the season (the first but hopefully not the last). The plot turned and swirled, and at the end we even got an homage to one of the best noir films in cinema’s [...]

Now I have to decide how much sin we can live with -Nucky Thompson The preview HBO released for episode 12, the season’s finale, does not tell much about what is going to happen. With such intensity and changes that occured in last week’s episode, Paris Green, the finale must include some noise. And at [...]

Now that The Walking Dead showed everyone what a zombie TV series can be like, it’s pretty clear that the opening title sequence could have been better. Since the series will have a second season next year I hope to see a different opening title. Fan-made opening title for TWD used original materials from the [...]

Boardwalk Empire has by far the best title sequence ever seen on TV. The mood is so meditative and dream-like, it gives an excellent prologue to the series.

I read this post about UP IN THE SKY and it reminded me that the opening sequence with the credits shown on images from an airplane, made the movie for me. It was beautiful, interesting, and perfectly matched the movie that followed. Here you can read an interview with a guy from the studio that [...]
