The Lion King
The Dark Knight

are two that immediately come to mind for me. Both really just hit you straight away that this movie experience is going to be a bit different than the typical fare.

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Yep! I think The Last Crusade is great too but I think some people are mixed on that.

Casino Royale

James Bond basically defined the epic opening thinking about it.

I think it does but I know what you mean lol. Calling that epic doesn't feel right even though that's more due to the subject material. The actual scale and spectacle of it in film is crazy good.

Revenge of the Sith had a space battle following the crawl that was more or less in scale with ROTJ's Death Star II finale.

Bumblebee. The movie could be a bit hit or miss, but the first 5 minutes were the formal apology for the prior 5 Transformers movies.

Star Trek (2009) One hell of a start for something that faded so quickly.

Mortal Kombat (1995) Had nothing to do with the movie, but it was great to watch.

I'm not saying that less toxic gaming journalists would lead to less toxic gamers. I'm just saying there's no proof to the contrary.

Oh yeah, the Cybertron opening of Bumblebee was incredible
