I am hoping that one day this title sequence is used in the show:

What we need in the title sequence is a vortex which looks as good as the one featured in the RTD titles
If they were going to feature the search for Gallifrey as the ongoing story arc for the next series, this one would be great:

I love the NeonVisual stuff. Actually, the one you have linked to is the one I thought they were talking about when they said a fan-made credit sequence had been chosen by Steven Moffat for the show itself. SO good. I love the way the TARDIS noise syncs with the music in the opening bars.
Dunno how I feel about the neon though.
Anyway, these guys does a pretty mean time vortex that I would put on par with the RTD one.

I love the way the camera shakes in this one.

This one is just plain cool.
Though my opinion is probably skewed by the amount of comments he censors. Don't like that.
That's exactly it! Too glossy. Too 'American' and I mean in the bad sense. A show on the CW or Syfy network. Too pointlessly flashy. As I said. It's just other peoples ideas painted over with unwanted gloss and fuss when it isn't needed. Lacks nuance or subtlety.
I'm really not fond of his attitude, so I don't like him much at all.
That first one is a really nice title sequence, if the BBC professionally re-did that one, I think that would be an ideal sequence, with a better theme tune though.
The vortex in the second one is brilliant, love those bursts of electricity or whatever it is.
Bingo.
Also, NV tries way too hard, and his attitude is appalling.
But they're not very 'Doctor Who'... they're too elaborate, too OTT, as people have already said. The strength of the title sequence is its simplicity, not its complexity. I also feel that the colours in the one posted by the OP are a little jarring in places - the neon aspects combined with the music give the whole thing a voodoo vibe That said they're still technically impressive, regardless of the appalling attitude of the guy who created them which I've seen quite a bit of.
I loved that!
As for xandercom - his original version of the sequence had footage from The Snowmen at the end which was flagged. You can follow the comments chain on his Facebook version of the video for yourself.
Obviously he doesn't own that.
Fabulous!
Hahahahaha what. No he isn't. He's only nice to those who brown-nose him and say he or his work is the best thing in the world.
