Lord I hope nobodies posted this yet. A lot better than I expected. http://tardisdatabanks.com/post/3618299633/that-is-awesome-st00fus-doctor-who-series-5
As a big fan of both shows I gotta say that was freaking awesome. ETA: Another by the same person, made back in 2009. [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqeKC3FmMoE[/yt] ETA2: And DW Angel style: [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NmUiLZ0tas[/yt] She has made a lot of DW and Xena related videos, so I suggest fans of either check out her other videos.
Those first two efforts were really well done, too, though clearly she's gotten better since then. I, and a couple others, suggested in the comments on her Series 5 credits that she should do a Torchwood/Angel style opening credits.
I guess its just a coincidence that the theme sounds very much like a rocked out version of the Time Lord theme from The End of Time Pt. 2
I wasn't sure what you meant at first, but, in thinking about it, yeah, I can see where "Theme from Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "This Is Gallifrey" have some notes in common. It's a coincidence, though -- the "Buffy" theme was written in 1997 and "This Is Gallifrey" in 2007, and the similarities are pretty vague, I think.
Oh I have no doubt its a coincidence. It just struck me as amusing is all. And heres the clip in question. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzAAL1XeSLs&feature=fvst
I kinda hope they do do that for the opening credits of the next season of Torchwood. I'm not so sure about Doctor Who though. These videos are awesome but I think they only work with a larger cast. Notice how they aggregated all of Tennant's companions into one sequence.
