The Movie Channel old intros

From early 80's, TMC intros and graphics. The "hiccups" in the video are a result of the original VHS tape in capturing, I tried to clean it up as best I could.

I think you are most correct. Going by the date mentioned for the Academy Awards promo (Sunday, April 8), 4/8 did indeed fall on a Sunday in 1984, according to the calendar under windows :). So I think you're spot-on...

I noticed that too, same sax and all....

Yeah, I still remember the switch box instead of the remote when I was a kid.

Judging from the film titles alone and thier release years,i would put this as a 1984 intro since "Max Dugan Returns"(shown here simply as "Max Dugan")came out in 1982 while "Cujo" is from '83.

I saw the latter at a $2.00 theatre late in its run the night ABC aired "The Day After".

I agree,most movie channels do not even have feature presentation intros anymore.

I love how back in the 70s and 80s the pay movie channels "feature presentation" bits were very similar to the ones you saw in the cinema. It's all very bland now. Oh I miss the 1980s!

Here in the UK there was a completely unrelated channel with the same name but it is now known as

Sky Movies Premiere.
