best movie opening scenes of all time

Full Metal Jacket

 

Raising Arizona.

 

I thought Nikita was a camera? Or maybe a dog. A tropical bird perhaps?

 

Always

 

Once Upon A Time In The West

 

Tarantino is pretty good at opening scenes.

Inglorious comes to mind. (Jewish family hiding under the cabin)

 

OK, I got one that is even motorcycle related.....

Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man.

Harley FXR and Bon Jovi.....yea man.

 

Charlie, you have now announced that you have absolutely no taste.

 

Belly

 

I'm proud of it tho Scudder! ....I've taken my lack of taste to the next level associating with you sir!

I'm usually not into anything artsy-fartsy or such.....The beginning of that flick, Mickey Rourke blasting across the country on that strutted and raked FXR....oh yea, perfection!.....I've done it for hundreds of thousands of miles on my FXR (no strut or rake tho).....the good old days!

The movie goes downhill from there, but there are bright spots....like Vanessa Williams....and that smokin hot bike cop.

The intro gets me goin every time!

 

War of the worlds H.G. Wells

 

After seeing it mention four times per pages, I looked it up.

Talk about ambivalence!

On one hand you've got the Coen Bros directing this, but on the other, Nicholas Cage (Ugh!) plays in it....

 

Cage tore that shit up.

 

Ain’t nothin wrong with Cage. Valley Girl was AWESOME!!!

 

The opening scene of Saving Private Ryan has to be the most intense and somber one's out there. That movie should be mandatory viewing in all high schools.

 

Guy Richie's "King Arthur, Legend of the Sword"

 

King of the who?

 

Apocalypse Now
Saving Private Ryan
Patton

Geez......there is a theme here.
