Working Titles - Season 1 Episode 35 Cowboy Bebop — Matt from Extra Credits
In 90 seconds, Cowboy Bebop’s opening credits prime you for the world ahead through fast jazz, western cinematic language, and sci-fi iconography. Matt from Extra Credits explains how the credits effectively set the tone, using jazz not just as background but as doctrine. He also goes on a personal tangent about a Suncoast Video memory and gets emotional over a spy satellite's planetary carvings. Despite the detours, it all ties into how the opening pumps you up and assures you that the Bebop journey will be rewarding. While it may not be the *best* media setup ever, Matt certainly makes a strong case.
