Look, the art of a good first impression isn't JUST important for people — it's also incredibly important in filmmaking.
The first few minutes of a good movie should manage to captivate you while simultaneously setting up the world and introducing the main players...it's A LOT to pull off well.
So — in your opinion — what is the absolute BEST opening scene in any movie EVER?
Maybe the first five minutes of The Dark Knight changed your life forever with how genuinely incredible it was.
Or perhaps you think "The Circle of Life" sequence from The Lion King is the only opener that matters.
Heck, maybe it was something a little scarier — like the straight-up sharkicular homicide in Jaws — that you think is splendid in every way.
