Truely a wonderfully terrific and witty collaboration between geniuses Danny Yount, Hans Zimmer and Guy Ritchie — I could watch it for hours and not get bored!

The opening with the cobblestones merging real life literally blew my tiny mind.

The track is Metallica’s “I Disappear” found on the “Mission: Impossible II” soundtrack. The song has an interesting history with Napster and the video features nods to “North by Northwest,” “Brazil,” and “Bullitt.”

No credit to Bonnie Ebbs’ calligraphy? It gives the credits a really engaging feel!

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction at trying to have at go at this style of illustration myself. I loved the movie and especially the end credit sequence, it all blended in with the feel of Old England perfectly. Not to mention the style of it is really stunning. any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Great visuals, and I like the post-modern transparency Even though it has become soooooo cliché, it still works for films like this.

People should also look at the title sequences of previous Sherlock Holmes films, notably The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes (Billy Wilder). That film opening is quite ahead of its time, as it playfully shows SH memorabilia being taken out of a trunk, but also showing new objects that show a different side to Holmes, ie it plays with clichés and pastiche. So, in a way, they did a very similar thing to Guy Ritchie’s SH 30 years earlier.
