Enunciate Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 The theme tune's beginning to grate. The "hold me in your arms" line was always the climax of the theme song. To hear the climax, each day, right away, is too much. I suppose the best description for it is sickly sweet.
Laura Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 if enough fans complain to home and away maybe they will put the cast in the credits Maybe we should start a petition
-Andrew- Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 Please don't. Sure, maybe it would work and they will redo the opening with the cast, but they could also remove the opening completely because they are 'damaging to the show' (which they aren't). I don't understand why the cast is so vital that any alternative is unnacceptable, the credits from 2000-2008 were all hideous and they featured the cast.....if they did feature characters and looked anything like the previous versions then we'd all be complaining anyway. Credits don't default as classy 1996 style anymore, for all we know, we could have had exactly the same style as last time, but sped up to fit into 15 seconds.
Laura Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 Andrew, I don't mind them either. I just said it as a joke
jamie232 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 think a petition is great im going to start one thease titles are not nice they are total rubbish bout time someone done something
Foxy Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Would it be so difficult to have the pictures moving at least? the producers do not care what the fans want its always what they want you would think we are asking for sumthing big it wouldnt hurt to have a lovely opening with cast in them but instead we get pictures shoved together with bright colours you cant see the logo that clear never mind maybe one day we will get a producer that acualy listens to fans The decision does not automatically reside with the producer - as Coral Drouyn has said many times, everything has the get past what she called "the suits". That being, the channel executives, the ones who deal with all the finance, and ultimately want as many viewers as possible to make as much money from advertising revenue. The way the media has changed over the last few years, many programmes just don't bother with opening credits at all, they just like to get straight into the drama to keep viewers hooked - from the perspective of "the suits" opening credits add nothing to the drama and thus viewers may wander if they're too long. It was much more likely that reducing the credits was an executive decision and one that I have to say is welcomed - they could just as easily (and probably wanted to) just scrap them. It's a cold hard fact that executives do not listen to fans - they listen to their accountants. And the more the money comes rolling in, the less reason they have to change their ways. So basically.....be thankful we've got any credits at all, and don't blame the producers, blame the channel executives. I'm just going to quote myself because I honestly don't know how else I can put this. Petitions won't work, it's just the way the media is these days. I understand it's frustrating if you don't like them, but there are reasons. Whether you like them or not there are reasons, which aren't going to change.
-Kevin- Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 I really dont mind the new theme , I think its actually good!!
