What are you favorite movie openings? They can be good movies or bad movies. Let us watch them and if you wish, explain why they are your favorites. Here are my top five:

5. The Cannonball Run: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eU8j4MeJ4I
4. The Wedding Singer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPXtvuNonJ0
3. Mars Attacks!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBI-AXLSewE
2. The Untouchables: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVsS_Ewsoe4 (I couldn't find a video, but here's the soundtrack).

1. Watchmen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=573XmVOdD2Q (I LOVE LOVE LOVE this film. Whether you're familiar with the graphic novel or not, it takes superhero movies to a completely new level. I adore every detail of this opening sequence, and it's amazing to see how history would be altered if superheroes really did exist in our age. In fact, if you look VERY closely at one of the shots, you can see Batman's parents getting saved from their untimely murder. So resultantly, Batman never exists).

In no particular order of preference:

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wfm3_BMinhg
Hilarious, grade-B sci-fi/horror at its best. Also: best (worst?) theme song ever.

Men In Black: couldn't find a youtube video
I love the opening credits with the dragonfly. So very, very clever.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ns-Rt-dXb2Y
The holy grail of hilarious film opening sequences, hands down. "a moose once bit my sister"

Cannonball Run: (see above post)
A great opening sequence, and I love the little animated car chase during the 20th Century Fox credits, too! (which you'd have to watch the dvd for, since most youtubers cut it off)

Ghostbusters: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qk9NqdhqTAA
Who you gonna call?! But for real - a great opening sequence.

James Bond: pick a movie, they're all good. No other movie franchise has such unique openings.

Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKofqDIRfAI
Harrison Ford outruns a boulder.

Wow this is interesting.

Here are my favorites in no particular order:

A clockwork Orange: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoPIIQHBRU0 (this is one of my favorites because of the craziness, Stanley Kubrick is genius)

Fire Walk with me (twin Peaks movie): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oDuGN6K3VQ (I couldn't find a video for the movie so I included the intro from the series) I like David Lynch


Seeking Susan Desperately: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d35SZp2jjBE (I am not a big Madonna fan but I do love this movie, 80s nostalgia)

Reservoir Dogs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLTqecGbdCc (I love this. It's funny )


Also now that you mention Ghostbusters, check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jybHfd7fN2Q
I could not stop laughing!!! It is from the movie "Be Kind Rewind" if you haven't seen it you should!

I have many more, maybe I will update this post when I have more time to find the videos!
