Some of you may not remember this but as a very young kid with HBO in the house, I remember always being amazed watching this intro. Now I think movies on HBO just start with the parental ratings and nothing more. So next time you are thinking of making a cool intro for your business in after effects, remember how much harder it actually could be! As always, click the full post to view the original trailer.

I loved this, it was like going back in time, and I remember that opening as if it were just yesterday. Made me think about "ON" subscription television, if you remember that before HBO ever was born. Thanks for posting this
