The sequence was created by Maurice Binder for the opening titles of the first film of the franchise , in 1962. Binder originally planned to employ a camera sighted down the barrel of a .38 calibre gun, but this caused some problems. Unable to stop down the lens of a standard camera enough to bring the entire gun barrel into focus, Binder created a pinhole camera to solve the problem and the barrel became crystal clear. Binder described the genesis of the sequence in the last interview he recorded before his death in 1991:
“ That was something I did in a hurry, because I had to get to a meeting with the producers in twenty minutes. I just happened to have little white, price tag stickers and I thought I'd use them as gun shots across the screen. We'd have X walk through and fire, at which point blood comes down onscreen. That was about a twenty-minute storyboard I did, and they said, "This looks great!"
It has also been observed that the sequence recalls the gun fired at the audience at the end of The Great Train Robbery (1903).

The Blood and Ice Cream Trilogy, also known as the Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy, is a series of films created by X and Edgar Wright, and starring X and Nick Frost in leading roles. The first two films in the series are Y, a zombie comedy with romantic comedy elements, and Z, a buddy cop action/comedy film. A third film, provisionally titled The World's End, is slated for the future.

Each film is connected to a Cornetto ice cream flavour - both of the films released to date feature scenes in which one of the main characters purchases a Cornetto of the appropriate flavour. Y features a (red) strawberry Cornetto, Z includes a (blue) Classico flavour, and The World's End is due to feature a green mint choc chip ice-cream. The use of the three colours of Cornetto is a reference to Krzysztof Kieslowski's Three Colours film trilogy.

"It was an incredible blend of badgering, cajolery, reminders of past favours, promises of future favours, predictions of gloom if something doesn't happen. When that man started to work on you, all of a sudden, you just felt that you were standing under a waterfall and the stuff was pouring on you."

What am i talking about?

For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace.

The pilots of the Royal Air Force are attributed to the origin of the word X. The earliest recorded use of the word X, in print occurs in the RAF journal "Aeroplane" (1929), in Malta:

When you're seven miles up in the heavens,
And it's fifty degrees below zero
....................
When you're thousands of miles from nowhere
And there's nothing below but the drink
It's then you will see the X
Green and gamboge and gold
Male and female and neuter
X both young and old
...................

Some people attribute the origin of this word to the Old English term ______ (to vex) or the Irish-Gaelic word _____ (ill-humoured ______).

This word was an indigenous slang to the Royal Air Force, until author Roald Dahl popularized the idea in his novel "The X" (1943). Roald Dahl was so interested by the idea, that he gave specific names to the genders: widgets (male) & fifinellas (female), and sent a finshed manuscript to Walt Disney.

X also has its own share of TV apperances; in: Merrie Melodies (with Bugs Bunny), Nightmare at 20,000 feet, The Simpsons (Terror at 5 1/2 feet) etc. All subsequent appearances paralleled X's role in Nightmare at 20,000 feet.

ID X.
