Pulp Fiction
Twister |
One of these movies, I won't say which one, should never be mentioned with the other out of respect for filmmaking. :p |

definitely "Apocalypse Today" with The Doors - The End intro soundtrack
I will make a custom video clip for that song when I have some free time |
What's with the Today instead of Now? Is it labeled Apocalypse Today in other countries? |

Seriously, Pulp Fiction was so overrated, and Twister inspired a generation of kids to want to grow up and chase storms. |

This.
Have always loved Leone's attention to details.. and this one has my fav opening. It's still a shame Leone cut out several minutes of footage from the opening scene alone and nearly 50 minutes from the entire movie and that lead to many odd inconsistencies throughout the movie. Tho 3.5 hrs might have been a bit too long for a western so the cutting was somewhat understandable.
There's still the Italian cut which features ~11 minutes of additional material not seen in any other version of the movie but annoyingly that version is available only in Italian dub! :stongue: |

My favorite film openings:
Matrix - I purposely saw no previews for the movie so the opening scene where she jump up and the camera froze/swiveled I was like WTF!! I so thought she was a robot.
Blade - Not only is it a classic tune but the rave scene is so highly stylized.
Gladiator - right into the ACTION BABY!!11
The Professional - OMG THIS GUY IS SUCH A BADASS
The Dark Knight - In Blu-Ray this scene is amazing, especially the scenes made for I-Max where they fly on the zip cable across the buildings. Best intro to villain ever.
It's not a movie but the opening of Lost is amazing. The single eye in the jungle and not knowing what is happening to everyone screaming with the plane. |
WOW, I pretty much concur with you on every count :) |
