Why would someone write a blog about Title Sequences? In their own words:

Remember when your heart sank just a little when you realized the Pink Panther movie wasn’t a cartoon?

Well, we want to see more of that. So watch and remember and create. And if you’ve got something to contribute, send it along.

Thanks,
