How to Equip Steam Startup Movies on PC
So you wanna jazz up your Steam with startup movies? Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! Fire up Steam, head over to your Library, right-click on the game you wanna add a startup movie to, select 'Properties,' then 'General,' and find 'Launch Options.' Here's the magic part: type in '-novid' (without the quotes) if you're looking to skip the intro, or if you actually want to add or change a startup movie, that's a bit trickier and depends on the game. Some games allow you to replace certain files in the game's directory to change the startup movie. Just be sure what you're doing is cool with the game's TOS; we don't want any trouble!

Managed to change the startup movie for my fav game after some tinkering with the game files. It's not straightforward and varies from game to game, but totally worth the effort!
Honestly, just skip 'em with '-novid' in launch options. Life's too short for unskippable intros.
