Really I thought it was odd. Maybe its over my head.

Maybe you don’t like war movies or old country music..?
It’s fine if you don’t Amiga but in my opinion it’s a pretty solid opening credit sequence.

It is pretty cool.
I never got around to reading those books but I watched all the movies with my kids. It was a great, epic story.

A very funky opening scene!

And if Sid Haig is co-starring how can anyone say ‘nope.’

Shaft 💯👍💯👍

I like the opening to the Shining also. I saw another film recently that used that same chopper footage cutting through the mountains with the lake and all, but I can’t remember it’s name.

I read that The Shining is the only time Kubrick used rolling credits.

I’ve never noticed that but I’ll be looking now.

When I went to see Goldeneye in the theater a couple of years ago, I hadn't seen the movie in quite a while and had totally forgotten about the opening credits. What a great opening, it really set the tone of the movie.

Do you mean the opening credits or the pre-title sequence?

reply

[–] Stratego (30495) 2 years ago

The actual opening credits, the bit with the theme song where they show, well, the credits.🙂

reply

[–] BillySlater (4241) 2 years ago

Oh right, the reason I asked is that, I never thought they were that great which is why I thought u might be referring to the pre-title sequence.
