Views: 1611
Here is the terrific "Star Tunnel" version of the ABC Movie opening, which began in Fall of 1981. This is the "ABC Movie Special" version, although the same theme and graphics were used for "The ABC Sunday Night Movie".
Really got you hyped up to see a good flick! :-)

ABC Tuesday Movie Of The Week (Bumper, 1981)
Views: 2994
Here's a bumper for the ABC Tuesday Movie of the Week.
They used this for a long time in the 70s, right? I'm surprised it was still being used as late as this airing. The movie, which ended after midnight, was "Three on a Date".
This aired on local Chicago TV early Wednesday, February 25th 1981.
WMAQ Channel 5 - Movie 5 (Ending, 1989)
Views: 2409
Here's the ending for the Movie 5 presentation on WMAQ Channel 5. (which I believe was the same sequence as the opening) You can see colored footage of old movies and stars such as Charlie Chaplin.
Wasn't this used as the opening for other movie shows in other cities? How old is it? (i.e., when did they first start using it?) Anyone know?
This aired on local Chicago TV early Saturday, January 14th 1989.

Here's one of the few glimpses yet found of a show that a lot of people remember and have requested footage of - Monster Rally Movie! This aired on WSNS Channel 44 and reportedly had it's own host - a mysterious figure in a creepy costume. Here we get to see only a partial commercial bumper from the show - the only type of footage (other than the movie itself) known to exist currently. The movie this night was the very weird 1973 film Lemora: A Child's Tale of the Supernatural.
