Speed 1994 Part 1

[@htcmohan]

SPEED was the first movie screened in a Dolby Surround sound In India (Chennai). The environment in Devi Theatre was electrifying, mind blowing sound. The whole hall was jam packed and people screamed their lungs out on hearing the score. Mark Mancina's best score as far as I can recall.

[@PaulvonOberstein]

Imagine watching this title sequence for the first time at the cinema in 1994 having no idea what the movie was about.

[@Valzahd]

Man, I miss when movies had such distinctive scores.

[@AnthonySigouin]

Exactely when movies didn't have generic music. ;) The 90s was the best (Terminator 2, Twister, Independance day, Speed, Jurassic Park, True Lies, Armageddon, Titanic, Deep Impact ... The 90s was the gold age of movie music. ;)

[@Furyae]

Still see a few here and there today. Like: Poseidon, The Great Wall, Geostorm, Gemini Man, John Wick, Pacific Rim, Rush

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

There's like 2 movies a year now where you can remember the goddamned music after it's over. Like quick, hum the theme to Joker or Black Panther.

Saw this in the theater the day it opened. My brother and I were sitting around the living room one summer afternoon and we decided that we could make the next show time. The problem was the movie started in 15 minutes and the theater was 25-30 minutes away. Like the movie, we sped through traffic and opened the doors to our theater just as 20th Century Fox came up. I will never forget that! Great memories!

[@davsny5]

I had my mom drive me to Specs through a hurricane the day we had off school just to get one of the first VHS copies and watch it again all day. Great times and the opening score and elevator scenes were the best and met Keanu and he was so pleasant and down to earth and just amazing.

That's because mgs is a rip off of all the famous action movies put together lol

[@SaturnBoy87]

Absolutely one of the best scores of all time. It's tense, exhilarating, daring, sneaky, and fun. Mark Mancina is a genius.

[@stevendufour]

yup, this and the intro to Bad Boys are legendary

[@darrenthetuber743]

I think he built on what the score to T2 revolutionized, rhythm of the pulse,

[@kendallrivers1119]

@@stevendufour Man that opening score always gets me pumped up. Perfect choice.

[@mikeshirleyforever]

The whole title sequence is a minature effect. Absolutely incredible. The score is still amongst one of my favourite main themes of any action picture. Brilliant!!!

[@Conan_the_Based]

I miss when every movie had a unique score, and didn't just recycle tired old Gen X music we've heard a thousand times on the radio.

[@texasboy9036]

They don't make em like this no more. Rip Dennis Hopper.

Keanu! You are a national treasure!

The intro of this movie is actually an elevator shaft.

Speed, Die Hard with a Vengeance, Bad Boys, Rush Hour, Enemy of The State, Passenger 57, The Rock, Under Seige, The Negotiator, Metro, Goldeneye, Eraser, Terminator 2, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Cliffhanger, True Lies and Kiss The Girls are the greatest action thrillers of the 90's!

@@janiprime Yeah that's the remake to the great 1974 movie.

[@ganesang5537]

There was a sense of intrigue and purpose with the cinematography in the 80s and 90s, especially without the overdone HDR and nauseatingly rehashed color (de)grading that we're deluged with these days. Miss that film look.

The editors of the opening credits of these movies with Mark Mancina doing the score are perfect, when the score peaks. *bang* 'Composed by Mark Mancina!' Bad Boys did the same on the opening as well.

It's quite interesting that this moving I used to watch When I Was Little when I was sitting down with my father at the time it was processing the early 90s I must have been round about 8 or 10 years old and I couldn't understand it at to have potential time for there is a hidden message inside this movie pre warning a person of their future which the Americans can predict somebody's future

Unless you're expecting absolute credibility, this film is hard to hate. Although admittedly, director Jan DeBont fiseled in quality after this and Twister. Haunting could've better but worse, imo. J D Bont did something with Nicholas Cage or Liam Neeson a few years ago, but I forget what. Even with this opening sequence, I love how the music intensifies with the speed of the elevator, what happened to all that after the 90s decade?

[@glebdrach7083]

you are damn right!

[@ElTuco84]

Twister was silly but very entertaining and made a lot of money, then I think he followed up with Speed 2 and it was a huge bomb, he never recovered.
