This opening foreshadows the entire series, he starts at the top, everything begins to crumble around him, him falling is showing his downfall throughout the series, there are many pictures of women symbolizing his womanizing ways and cheating throughout the show, he falls through a glass of alcohol showing his alcoholism in the series, he falls past a picture of a family showing is family falling apart, and a hand with a wedding ring showing the divorce and marriage and divorce he goes through. Some might think that this symbolizes suicide but since he doesnt that couldnt be it, also in this intro he is never shown hitting the ground because right before he does it changes to him sitting in a chair showing him finding himself at the end of the show

Art and entertainment aren’t two completely different things. Film is and has always been another form of art. The writing, camerawork and acting on breaking bad is all phenomenal, no matter what standards you put it up to. The writers and directors conveyed what they wanted to convey, which happened to be to make a kick-ass show full of interesting characters, thrilling plots and mind-blowing cinematography. You don’t need to write off a piece of art as just being entertainment.

It's such an interesting intro, because the silhouette character's body language does not communicate panic or alarm aside from perhaps the last pose despite falling to his death. Otherwise it's all Silhouette Guy (Don) seemingly in a daze, looking around not realizing he's in freefall, trying to take in his surroundings as if he was intoxicated or waking, and seeing nothing but ads and being so overwhelmed by it that he doesn't realize the reality of his situation. It doesn't exactly convey Don's story, but it's so perfect an opening for this show that it's as if an ad man unironically designed it for the series to draw viewers.

One person I know told me that this intro was sexist and i was like "you're missing the entire point!!" First of all, this intro is really good, the combination of the music, the graphics and the whole vibe is so well done, and totally fits the themes of the show. Second of all, a big part of 'Mad Men' is the social ideas surrounding women, and the 60s being a time when a lot of women were starting to question their roles in the world, they were beginning to break free from those gender-roles. The pictures of the women on the buildings are ads, and considering that Don works in the ad industry, it makes sense for him, and his male workers, to paint women this way in their ads, this is what they are encompassing in a way. And on another note, this is a show about the 60s! This was the time, they are writing a show about a period where women were objectified and put in these positions, this intro is only a small part of the storytelling. Btw I absolutely love this show and if you haven't watched it, season 1 is free on Prime i think.
