Favorite Opening Scene in a Movie
 

A friend and I were trying to compile a list and all I can think of off the top of my head is The Godfather. Any ideas?

i like the idea--but why in the music discussion thread??

well, I actually put some thought into it...see...Th Parkbench forum has become a music and movie forum, and there's a music discussion section in it, but not a movie discussion thread. I considered putting in the general discussion forum, but it seemed more appropriate in a sub forum of this one. I may be wrong. I could have misplaced it.

This is a bit of a throwback, but I still get wood when I watch the start of Top Gun, when "Danger Zone" kicks in.

Mine is The Lion King

In 5.1 surround sound

"Goodfellas" ..."As far back as I can remember I always wanted to be a gangster"

Army of Darkness.
