A Dying Cinematic Art (And Why It Needs To Come Back)
Added 2021-10-02 18:29:56 +0000 UTCPlease excuse the overdramatic title. This is basically just a video about opening title sequences - why they're great, what they can do, and why they should come back into style.

2021-10-04 20:57:02 +0000 UTCThanks for calling out the weird plot obsession of online film discourse. It sometimes feels like people view films as "plot delivery devices" and things like aesthetic, tone, and theme are viewed as a distraction. Maybe that's why so many recent blockbusters have forgettable soundtracks and by-the-numbers cinematography; artistic vision gets in the way of the precious plot...

2021-10-03 05:52:33 +0000 UTCThank you for calling out the "have their cake & eat it too" Marvel thing of putting the big fancy opening credits sequences at the ends of almost all of their movies (and D+ shows). And I feel like your "memorable theme song" theory has some validity there.
