Neglect + Opening Titles

So what story should I make up to explain the lack of posts in this blog? I'm too busy and I just don't have the time? A dog ate my computer? I'm lazy? Actually, that last part isn't made up. I think the problem is that I'm expected to write a blog with some frequency, yet I kinda feel like blogs are "been there, done that". I've already blogged enough in my life to know I don't feel like doing it anymore. Plus the projects at school now require blogging elsewhere, which is just plain annoying to be honest. It's just a lot of word-pooping and writing for an audience that isn't there. Does anyone read really this blog? No.

But anyway, I have one thing I'd like to share. It's not of any great importance other than the fact that I love it. I came across this opening titles sequence for the upcoming film The Kingdom, and just these four minutes made me want to genuinely see the movie (as before it really wasn't registering on my radar). I love film, and I love opening titles sequences (something I'd like to get into one of these days) so this is certainly the kind of thing I go for.



These titles were done by L.A.-based PIC Agency for the record, who have also done opening titles for films such as The Illusionist and The Bourne Ultimatum.
