    This is simply one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Puts us modern level artists and designers to shame.

    Very cool, I remeber watching HBO with the startup intro. (very young memories of course) But this brought back a lot of Nostalgia. I miss seeing all the creative stuff without 3D.

    " we put a few bums on the street, a few hookers on the corner" hahahahahaha awesome!

    And the narration at that point is talking about how much this has improved things over the "old days"

    Hah! Sweet! Never saw that intro before, or the making of, but like you said then it puts modern artists to shame when you see how much work went into the tiniest thing back then.

    Oh and HBO > *
