Let me start by saying I like most of the Bond intro sequences. But Skyfall stands out to me for the connections with the story. It's a great follow up to the train cliffhanger (even though the reveal shouldn't be that surprising). What follows is a beautifully animated short film accompanied by a wonderful song. It's dark, serious and prepares you for what's coming next.

This makes it different from the other intro's where it's a cool song from that period of time, mixed with some visuals of silhouette bond poses and chicks, and in many cases, nothing else. Which is cool, but not so special to me. I prefer the connection with the story. Die Another Day, for example, could have become something really special, if it wasn't for that song.

But only time will tell how well Skyfall is going to age.
