favourite movie/tv openings

i know theres loads of threads like this, but i thought id be offtopic if i posted this in the favourite movie scenes, anyway, mine is probably these:

sorry i couldnt find it on youtube anywhere so youll just have to watch the beginning on 4od, (some of you may not be able to get it, sorry, and sorry about having to wade through all the adverts), anyway, heres the link:http://www.channel4.com/programmes/misfits/4od#3145889

I like the opening to 'Wallace and Gromit: The Wrong Trousers'. It always used to make me jump when I was little.

It's a much better comment than you are poster.

We can do non-anime stuff too.




And I can't honestly think of any live action shows I actually give a shit about nowdays.

Animation and music better than all of those. Also the Venture Bros. opening is really good. It's an awesome show too. I couldn't find a good clip of it but you should check it out.

I never really watched Ren and Stimpy much. I was tempted to put it in there, until I realized I couldn't even remember it. I have few memories of that show, as I only remember watching it at a young age.

Lexx:


I think that Lexx is my equivalent to OANST's Dark Shadows. Not an exact comparison, but anyone who knows just how damn much OANST likes that show (and why) could probably see the similarity. It was awesome, just this incredible space saga without a whole lot of organization. You may notice that it implies that the pretty lady in the opening was present throughout most of the series, which is bullshit. she was replaced by someone ten times hotter about six episodes in (whose tits are just right there when she's introduced--BAM!). Lexx itself is one of the most frighteningly endearing things I've ever encountered in fiction. He's just a big friendly alien jet dragonfly space penis. They always leapt around with how exactly it fed, too. In the opening there it implies that it eats people (and it did, a lot, a fucking whole ton of people). Then they say that it could just eat dirt from planets and thn sometimes it fed off of just outright blowing shit up.

Movie openings are though. Movies don't start the same way that tv shows start.

I wish I had the alternate intro that premiered at the middle of season 6. The one with Michael Scott Paper Company . That one was for the fans.

Only I will understand these *sniff*:

Where's the embed video button?
