This is most memorable part of the movie

These are amazing titles, it is a shame that the movie didn’t live up to what it could have been.

wooow .this is great

This has also been copied in the new TV show “Fringe” for all the locations i.e. to let you know you are in “BOSTON” or “NEW YORK” or whatever

Not my favorite Fincher movie, but they are always visual feasts. Nice titles.

I think it’s fairly safe to credit this title sequence to Kevin Tod Haug, one of David Fincher’s regular visual effects guys. He spoke at Northwestern University’s Block Cinema a couple years ago and showed a reel that included this sequence.

I also think it’s safe to assume that he admires the work of Saul Bass and considered this sequence a sort of homage to North by Northwest.

this title sequence always seemed odd to me in the context of the film. it’s almost as though they decided to produce it ‘because they could’. Though the bg shots do set up NYC nicely, the sequence seems more attuned to something like Spiderman. It is a decent juxtaposition in that virtually the rest of the film is indoors.. but static text on the backgrounds would probably have worked.. and saved a lot of time spent 3d tracking.

North by Northwest, updated to be the 21st century. Love it.

The typeface and its color remind me of money…those buildings cost big bucks to construct, and having the means to build a panic room in your dwelling would be very expensive. And…wasn’t the movie basically about a burglary? Maybe I’m over thinking this title sequence?
