Fans of his must check out the recent book about him by Jennifer Bass and Pat Kirkham, with a Foreword by Martin Scorsese (Bass did titles for some of his films too)–SAUL BASS: A LIFE IN FILM & DESIGN. It's filled with information about how he did movie titles and includes many many illustrations. An awesome book. A brief review of the book can be found on Shelf Awareness.

Love his work so much! Really want someone to issue a complete collection of all his sequences on blu-ray. I also clicked here just to make sure The Age of Innocence made the cut.

Saul is the pioneer and still the best but I think you're a bit unfair towards contemporary work. There has been some pretty great opening credits after Saul and even some great closing credits.
His shoes are big to fill – but there are scores of individuals and companies that continue what he started.

I adore title sequences. Perhaps the art form first came to my attention because of my love of James Bond and the extraordinary title sequences of Maurice Binder, but Saul Bass is the master. Bow down.
