| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to day three of 30 days of Spector. Happy Tuesday morning to you. I hope it's been a good one. I hope you've woken up feeling refreshed and ready to face the day with a new explosion of Spector in your ear holes. My name is Tom Sears and I'm joined by my friend Chris also. Say hello Chris. Hello, I'm Chris also. Absolutely. Good |
| 0:23.8 | stuff. So Chris, today, what are we talking about? Yeah. So today, so yesterday we did the pre-title scene |
| 0:30.1 | and today we're going to look at the title sequence. So we're not only going to look at the visuals |
| 0:34.8 | that we've got, but also the song and yeah, basically just go through what we think about those, what bits we liked, |
| 0:40.8 | what bits we weren't sure about, and whether we thought it fitted with the film. |
| 0:44.6 | I guess that's quite a good way of doing it. |

| 1:28.9 | most people tend to love the Casino Royal Tile sequence. |
| 1:32.5 | A lot of people say the quantum one is just a bit, meh, you know, Skyfall, I don't know, |

| 1:42.1 | I feel like it's liked liked but it's not like a |
| 1:44.7 | wow. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, I think the people that loved Skyfall love the title |
