It has become a Suarez tradition to see a movie Christmas day. This year we were pleasantly surprised to see the very well crafted Sherlock Holmes. I’m glad it turned out well seeing that they spent an enormous amount of money on the advertising. When we were in NYC there were posters everywhere and even ads painted on the sides of brick buildings. Anyway, the movie was enjoyable but I was caught off guard by the incredible ending sequence. A mixture of watercolor, ink, pencil and live action created the visual feast that was the ending credits. They’ve finally shown up on the YouTubes and apparently they’re done by the same company that did the also phenomenal ending credits sequence to Iron Man. Glad to see this type of art is still making its way into movies. Taking the time and money to create creative beginning/ending sequences always add such a nice touch to movies but are so seldomly used.

    Thanks for linking to this. I rarely sit through the end credits of a movie unless there’s going to be a cut scene afterwards, but when I saw these sequences start up after Sherlock Holmes, I had to stay and watch them all.

    Good stuff.
