How do I automatically skip the valve loading movie on Steam/TF2?

Question

Each time I open TF2 I see the wonderful valve loading movie, I remember there was an option of --novideo for HL1 which used to remove it.

Any similar command line / preference I can use to disable it for Steam / TF2?

Answer

You can use "-novid" in for any Source game. To add it, right click on game and select properties. Then "Set Launch Options" and type in "-novid". This will skip the launch video.
