I've been seeing the old HBO pre-movie animation go around the interwebs recently so I thought I'd collect the related bits here:
- HBO has a dedicated youtube channel now and put up the old school movie intro which definitely got my blood rushing (I remembered the song note for note). As cynical-c and the sports guy both pointed out, any time this music played it was MANDATORY that you watch all the way through to see if the warning would come up with SSC (strong sexual content) or N (the ever coveted nudity).
- A behind the scenes look at the creation of that spot
- The music video for "DVNO" by Justice features a riff on the HBO promo plus tons of others that smell like VHS tapes to me (like Cannon films) and old TV shows (like Stephen J. Cannell at his typewriter).
No one cares, but here is a pictorial breakdown of all the references in the DVNO video above.
