    I love how the credits explain everything, but only if you know the full story. People will get it as the show grows, and readers will love them from the start. And the visuals and music are beautiful and daring. It could not be more perfect.

      @@Sintarzus I guess potentially the end scene with the different worlds could change... this series is entirely set in Lyra's world, and that's the one we see in the centre. Maybe they could change it up by having the "main world" for each series being the central one? (eg. Cittagazze world for S2, world of the dead / mulefa world for S3?)
      Alternatively, these opening credits (after the segment showing Lyra alone) pull back through the mountains of the north, that could be changed out for the Cittagazze skyline for the next series?

      the editing and graphics are so incredible.... the way the dust forms the aletheometer, then Lyra seems to be inside it (like a cog of a machine), then the way the parallel universes are meshing together, the staircase -they even teased Will! When I read the series at 11 I had no idea such a show would exist.
      This series is so important to me. I read it when I was really Lyra's age, so I lived that world, just as Lyra did. I am so glad I have the opportunity to experience it, as an adult, in the form of a series.

      If the like-dislike ratio is this low, you should never worry about dislikes. TH-cam is prowling with dislike bots, and some people just dislike because they might not be into the subject matter. The only time when dislikes actually show that people are hating it is when you see a significant grey bar. Like about 5% or more of the bar is gray. THEN it's a big issue. So yeah, don't worry about the dislikes ^.^

It embodies the feeling i got of these worlds so well in the music I can't believe it. It's rare that I tear up by stuff like this. Whoever made this, bravo you absolutely nailed it! :)

      Because the BBC who made the show isn’t getting the credit. HBO is getting it all even though they played almost 0 part in making this.

    By The Authority, this was such a masterful intro. The literal best opening sequence for any show I have ever seen, in my opinion.
    did anyone notice, that the shot of all the parallel universes changed into thin lines, like lines made from the cut of a certain knife?
    and all those lines were divided across the screen with a black chasm in the middle?
    A chasm that looks deep enough for anything, or anyone to fall into, for eternity?
    A chasm that might be the birthplace of a huge number of certain malevolent creatures?
    This show is going to be incredible.
    Long live The Republic.

    I love this title sequence so much. The music is amazing, the visuals are amazing and it has this haunting feeling to it. It is so perfect. I feel like it gives off the perfect feeling that the book gives you, mysterious, beautiful, and has many layers that you discover as you read (or in this case watch). It gives me chills every time when we see the mirrored staircase.

      If I recall well enough the books have main worlds in where almost everything happens: is 2 Englands (Lyra's and Will's), Cittagazze, Mulefa, Lord Asriel's world and the kingdom of heaven some others were visited for a short time but most importantly: The World of the Dead

      Will's World (Skyscrapers)
      Mulefa World (Jungle / Savannah)
      Citagazze (Tower on the ocean)
      Lyra's Oxford (Sunset world in the middle with the airships)
      The Authority's world (Mountains with the northern lights- NO SNOW)
      Land of the Dead / The Dark Passage (the beach and the upside down mountains).
