When I called this feature Intro, what I actually meant was of course “opening credits” and it’s simply a nice excuse for me to put together a visual post once in a while. The other day I discovered that so far I’ve focused entirely on TV-shows (The Walking Dead, Master’s of Sex, True Detective) and their brilliant intros, so I decided it was time to shake things up a bit.
Granted, my first choice of movie opening credits isn’t from a movie that is generally loved. I didn’t even like it myself and though Detention has some twisted potential to be weird and completely delusional, it didn’t really achieve its goals. I did admire the effort and creativity behind the movie though and partly because a lot of that creativity was put into its intro. Carefully weaved into the actual movie, everyday objects became names behind the production of Detention and it just worked so well!
Very cool way to introduce all the people!
I thought so too!
Those are very cool titles!
Glad you appreciate them as well.
This is such an awesome feature! I agree with Nostra here, too, awesome way to introduce people. And heyyy — Josh Hutcherson? Mmmmmmm.
Hah, the movie itself is a bit of a miss in all the wrong ways but hey, the intro was such a delightful little thing!
The introduction of Detention was so so good. Unfortunately the rest of the film was, frankly, shit.
It had such potential!
Indeed, the first half was somewhat promising because you were trying to understand what the hell was going on and then it just turned to blah.
