Royale with Cheese Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) I've always found the opening to "Saving Private Ryan," incredibly powerful. This is my vote. I watched a special about the movie several years ago and they interviewed a few people who actually were at Normandy. Some couldn't watch the opening scene because it was so real and it basically brought back bad flashbacks.

LeviF Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 The opening to Casino Royale was excellent; great start to the "new" James Bond. Also the opening to American Beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Since some of my personal favorites have already been mentioned... I'm going for the most difficult/amazing openings from a film making perspective: Touch of Evil And PTA's take on the Touch of Evil opening: Boogie Nights: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I'm surprised this one took 2 pages to get to, considering it's since become one of the more mimicked openings in modern cinema: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

/dev/null Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Idiocracy by a mile! Ha! I've never heard about that movie, but that was an excellent intro sequence. Idiocracy is one of those cult classics. Either you haven't seen it, seen it and didn't get it, or think it's one of the greatest comedies ever. I'm in the third category I already linked to it. Didn't show up as a video, though. Don't know why. Because you're an idiot? ©® all rights reserved I've always found the opening to "Saving Private Ryan," incredibly powerful. Which version? The Tom Hanks WWII original or Star Wars: Force Awakens reboot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
