Best Movie Opening Ever

Tools    





Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

The opening scene starts with a dance number, turns into negotiations over diamonds and the remains of a Chinese Emperor, becomes a fight inside the club, becomes a car chase, becomes them falling down in a plane and then finally becomes a water rapids ride.



The opening Madagascar chase scene in Casino Royale is one of the very best ever done. A breath-taking 9 minutes in Daniel Craig's first Bond Move:

There Will Be Blood.

Save the Texas Prairie Chicken
And, from my all time fave, a fable like introduction to man who couldn’t and wouldn’t hide his flaws...

This is definitely in my top 5 favorite movie openings ever.

The other 4 would be:


The opening to Field of Dreams, which is not on youtube, and so I can't post it here.

Finally, what is probably my #1 favorite film opening:

Tomorrow never dies, one of the best intro sequences ever, forget about the film compared to the intro...



Sinister one of my favorites! If there was enough room in my profile both 1 & 2 would be in there!



Hi guys! This time I completely agree with @Dirk120. The Lion King is one of the best movie openings ever. Especially with the song Circle of Life where at the same time, Rafiki lifts young Simba at the top of the giant rock of Pride Lands, and every animal bowing before him. Have a good day!

Thanks, but you should agree with me every time. Cheers.
