[winterguy125]

I am going to look at it again, only make my screen bigger so I can see them I still hope that tomorrow we will see them with there own stand alone pictures though.

ETA: I think I saw Lisa, but still have not found babs yet

Barbara is in the shot with Dusty. When Jenn was dying. Dusty is seen going into the room and Barbara is behind him. The flashback photo appears during Dusty's pic and Emily's pic.

Thanks Ron, I saw her now

Poor Austin Peck.......

He's never been in a Soap Opening and didn't know what to do.......

[Cheap21]

gawd, I hate that opening! The previous one was much better. It doesnt feel soapish at all

I dont get the ahte for Austen Peck here. I thought he looked alright. I loved his shot

[KBT]

For me personally it seems obvious Austin is saying to himself, okay Austin look to the left, now look down and smirk up at the camera. I don't see that with any other people with the new opening, he just doesn't flow naturally is what I am trying to get at. When he does his stance it just looks forced, but again that's just me.

[Faulkner]

LMAO. Yeah, I never imagined Holden as a good bottom.

it does grow on you after a few repeat viewings. But it has serious problems.

The actors are shot in that low-grade video tape they were using in the last opening. The CGI visuals look good, but they need to either filter the actor shots so they don't look unnatural, or slow them down. The lighting, or whatever effect they're using on the actor shots also is very horrible. Luke doesn't look like Luke IMO. And in this high def era, It's pretty bad not being able to make out most of Meg's face because it's so blury.

The music isn't bad, it just needs tweaking. The intro is very sleepy and boring, but once Bob & Kim's shot started and the music picked up it was a pretty good theme.

[Soapsuds]

The best photo shots IMO are Carly, Katie and Lucinda followed by Luke. I use to like Michael Park's old pose from the 2000 opening. And I prefered Marie Wilson old pose instead of this one. Even Emily's old photo pose was better than this one. And Dusty's pic looks awkard. He looks out of place. Not sure what he is to do. And Nu Ally's pose is also good. Would put it up there with Lucinda and Co.

There is one thing that I've noticed that is definitely a mark in the "plus" column for this opening --- if you look closely, some of those clips that fade in and out are vintage. Right when Bob/Kim starts, you see a couple kissing -- that's Bob & Lisa and it's from the 1960s. Also, there's a Bob/Kim clip where Kim has her dark hair. One of the Henry/Katie clips has Katie with much longer hair (and semi curly like she used to wear it) and one of the Emily clips has that really short cut she had several years ago. And the Craig/Lucinda clip is vintage from the 1980s -- they're about to kiss. Also, there's a Lucinda/Lily clip from when Lily was a teen/early 20s. I just wish you could see them more.

Neither do I to be honest. Hes a decent actor and hes bringing a lot to show. Hes funny and hes definitely got the part of Brad downpat. I love seeing him onscreen not just because hes a good looking guy but also cuz he has such a natural chemistry with all the actors hes been working with. And contrary to popular opinion he doesn't seem "out of depth" when hes around any of the regulars. Already he just seems like one of the guys.

I don't know where you're getting that from. It just looked like a long dramatic pause that the directors probably directed him to do. He looked okay to me. I laughed at how goofy he was at first though. But again its personal opinion/taste again. I think Van was looking a lil dull there. NuAlison outshone him in the smiling/looking cute department to be honest.

I keep replaying the song over and over again in my head. And I love the golden background the children of the corn theme. So down to earth and cool. I think I'm in love with this new opening. Thanks ATWT!

Awful. From music to graphics. Awful. I do like the logo, but everything else. Awful.

[ATWTfan1]

ATWT finally updates the opening!

I love the mixture of the obligatory soap 'pose' shots and background clips. Also like the new music. The only thing, and I think someone else mentioned it, is the obvious difference in film/tape/whatever they use for the 'pose' shots and the rest of it. If they could make that more uniform-looking that would be great.

And Austin Peck looks so lost, lol.
