Not Coming to a Theatre Near You has a list of movie title sequences designed by Saul Bass, you can click on the title name and click to forward through the sequence. Amazing what can be done with typography and creative thinking.

My favorite title is IT'S A MAD MAD WORLD by Robert Wise, 1961. I think it was very creative and unexpected. I believe I underestimate older creative expressions. There is much to be learnt from the title sequences. Good find, and time for me to start watching old movies.

Saul Bass is a legend, absolutely brilliant. I think the title sequence is nearly as famous as the movie itself!
YouTube has most of them, and you don't have to click-click-click to get through it, which ruins the fluidity of the type and image.

Six in one and a half dozen in the other. I like the way the clips are presented. In some cases it allows for better viewing of the details in each transition. In addition the information I want is all right here together, sometimes searching for things on “that tube site” is like finding a needle in a haystack.
