Cool Videos: How Back to the Future’s opening sequence was created

Next year will be the 30th anniversary of my favorite movie of all time, BACK TO THE FUTURE. After all these years we are still finding out new behind-the-scenes information because people can’t seem to get enough of the beloved fantasy adventure movie. Filmmaker Jamie Benning is working on a retrospective on the making of BACK TO THE FUTURE for the anniversary and spoke to special effects supervisor Kevin Pike about his experiences working on the Robert Zemeckis movie.

Here's a great segment narrated by Pike, who talks about the great opening title sequence; the three minutes of choreographed clocks and machinery is broken down in great detail. It says so much about the movie and with each repeat viewing a great appreciation has to be given to this wonderful opening. Check it out!
