favorite film studio/tv-intros?

[alicebrallice 134]

there are some pretty awesome intros out there. here are my favorites:

this is the old Swedish Film Industry intro. I remember as a kid, I used to rewind the tape and listen to it over and over again, got goose bumps every time.

really like this intro for the swedish tv-show uppdrag granskning.

ah, good old x-files. used to creep me out when I was a kid, though

no surprise there, really.

what are your favorite film studio/tv-show intros?

I understand Angela Morley worked on the arrangement, too. Written by Jerrold Immel.

This is actually slightly reminiscent of JW, IMO. A very memorable, clear-cut, bold theme, and it gets repeated again and again, with each repeat being more complex in terms of orchestration. Love it!

We need the 1980's and current Walt Disney Pictures, Horner's Universal Studios and of course, Williams' Fox Fanfare, Amazing Stories and NBC News.

Ah yes, Alice, I have strong nostalgic connections to the SF logo, especially from the VHS days (and when we used to rent 'movie-boxes' in absence of VCR's).

Bwahahaha. The bear cracked me up!

We should probably make a difference between logos and idents and tv show intros on the other hand.

Two of my favourite tv show intros (especially the music) are:

This is the "right" version of the SF intro, more brassy!

My all time favorite and, what do you know, the music is by John Williams. Strangely enough, it's somehow a perfect interlude or prologue to Blade Runner. In fact, I though the movie had started when I first saw it. It reminded of the monochrome monitors we see in Scott's previous film Alien.

I enjoyed the intro to the tv show Millennium. It had such a brooding, melancholy feel, due in no small part to Mark Snow's theme.

For the update, Dr. Moorer increased the number of voices to 70 and made enhancements that would play well both in movie theaters and home theaters, both of which have become much more sophisticated since the original. He had to think about tuning the balance in each of the many speakers that are now in theaters, and consider how to program the tones into multidirectional systems like Dolby Atmos, where audio comes from overhead in a more three-dimensional way. There are a total of 32 different versions of the new trailer, of different lengths and different numbers of audio channels to best fit the theater where it will be played.

I've never really been a fan of any of the THX intros. The sound is kind of annoying.

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383]

Turn it up! TURN IT UP!

[Jay 46,241]

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383]

Yep.

I agree that its a very annoying intro. It's just a loud tone.

[Jill Sandwich 11,164]

I love the one that's on the KotCS, Alien and Aliens BDs.

[Jim Ware 638]

I rather like the Horner version ('Cimarron').

I prefer this to Goldsmith's, although Jerry's has long outlived it.
