Why watch a movie when you can just watch the titles? Browse title sequences by designer and read interesting backstory and discussion on the art of making a title sequence.

I will post this again because it's appropriate: Enter the Void (epilepsy warning)

Nice! Titles for se7en and splice playing simultaneously makes for interesting music, too.

Thanks for posting.

Call me a pleb but I really like the modern fashion of skipping the movie titles and going straight into the movie. I find sitting through the credits before a movie starts kind of boring, to be honest, no matter how fancily they're presented.

Awesome. I'm a huge fan of ArtOfTheTitle.com (previously), so I'm looking forward to digging through this site.

I have this love/hate relationship with Digital Kitchen: Love for creating one of the most evocative opening titles in TV (True Blood) and hate for stealing my idea (FROM MY BRAIN NO LESS) for the opening to a A Picture Of Dorian Grey comic adaption and using it it to open Dexter.
