If one would be adding one further thing to his great talents -- it's creating memorable and inspiring title-sequences!

Where the hell is ZODIAC? That's arguably the best title sequence!

On the plane last month I was listening to my music when the movie "The Spiderwick Chronicles" came on, silently I watched as the title sequence rolled and I slowly realized I was watching "Se7en". Or, rather the opening sequence has way too many similarities to be coincidental. (The notebook wiring scenes, the handwriting) Anyone else seen that film and notice this, I would be curious to hear your opinion.
