HBO Feature Presentation: Difference between revisions

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, purple streaks rain down the screen diagonally and disappear via a TV power-off effect as the screen fades to see a {{color|gray}} rounded rectangle with a neon {{color|hotpink|pink}} outline rotating and zooming out, with an ocean at the bottom of the screen. The rectangle gets slowly sliced into 3x3 pieces with yellow sparking lasers and, when it's done, explode into a blue circular flash, which brings forth a series of {{color|gold}} bars flying towards the screen at an angle. They eventually form a theater hallway with the ocean turning into a black floor, and a {{color|saddlebrown|brown}} screen quickly zooms in as the "{{color|red|{{Font|Impact|HBO FEATURE MOVIE}}}}" text starts animating as usual.

'''Visuals:''' As the sequence starts with a man tuning the cable on a TV set for a channel (to HBO) in his apartment as he settles down on the couch with his wife. The camera pans backwards and outside the window to show a somewhat busy city intersection with figurines of vehicles and people standing on the sidewalk at twilight. The music starts, and the camera "flies" forward down the street, through several intersections. At one point, a movie theater with "HBO THEATRE" on the marquee can be seen. The camera flies over some buildings before going into the suburbs, with lots of trees, then several houses and a clock tower. Then the camera pans up into the sky, which briefly takes sunset hues before becoming blue and black with a starfield. The camera goes up into space, eventually panning up to reveal the source of the light; a star (positioned near the top center of the screen) that gets brighter and brighter, and eventually explodes in a {{color|orangered|scarlet}} and blue gemstone-shaped flash, leaving behind a shiny chrome model monolith. The monolith moves down and across the screen and rotates clockwise, revealing that it is the HBO logo, then turns around one more time as the camera then zooms in on the side of the "{{color|silver|'''O'''}}". The side of the "{{color|silver|'''O'''}}" disappears in a flash of light, revealing a stream of red, {{color|#FFD900|yellow}} and blue rays streaking counterclockwise around a {{color|silver|silver}} axis, and "{{color|violet|'''HBO FEATURE PRESENTATION'''}}", in a heavy, {{color|violet|lavender}} 3D "gaspipe" font and with each word stacked on top of the other (as well as a line under "{{color|violet|'''<u>PRESENTATION</u>'''}}"), appears against an array of purple lines. Some more rays sweep across the words and shine, then the background fades to black with more flashes from the surrounding rays.
