It was a royal bitch of a shoot as it all had to be done in one take. The technique is called slit scan. It was shot at the now-defunct Cinema Research.

Jerry resisted at first, then gave in. After all, Verhoeven was his boss on the shoot, and he treated him better than Ridley Scott ever did!

It was possibly a deliberate reference to Schwarzenegger's earlier films by composer Jerry Goldsmith. And about the only similarity to the Superman titles is the trailing effect; which in Superman flies out from the screen in space, is a different color and typeface... Um, the style is maybe similar, but that's it. I wouldn’t say stolen. It was possibly a deliberate reference to Schwarzenegger’s earlier films by composer Jerry Goldsmith.

Verhoeven stole everything. Fortunately, the movie is really good. pfff… the music is clearly stolen from Conan (Poledouris – Anvil of Crom) and the titles are very similar to that of Superman… Verhoeven stole everything.

I remember being entranced by the these sci-fi titles (and Jerry Goldsmith's rousing music) in the cinema back in 1990. Great design. One of my favorite movies.
