A few weeks ago we uploaded a post with a little video about opening (and closing) titles in cinema (and tv shows). We asked for our lovely fans to send us links to their favourites; and we received quite a few nice submissions (with some choice picks from @BerniceAu). I was going to write a nice, eloquent blog post on the merits of good title design, type in cinema and how it has evolved over the past century, but I think I will leave that for another day. Today I will just show them. Let you bask in them. Roll in them. Absorb their beauty.  I would credit people for their submissions, but I have been saving links and not names unfortunately. You know who you are. Enjoy.
