What is the best opening scene/ sequence of any movie? And why is it the animated Lion King?

    Master & Commander.

      It breaks my heart that we don’t have 14 Master and Commander films. The books are so good, and are the rare sort of book that would reach make a good movie.

        It’s my absolute favourite book series ever. I kept putting it off and putting it off as I thought - Napoleonic Wars, sailing ships, nah - but they blew me away from book 1.

        There are solid rumours that a script is being written to launch the series as a movie universe. To be honest though, there’s so much detail in each book I think each book would work better as a TV season.

      Random story. I have a god awful memory for names and rarely have dreams. One night I have a dream and specifically even know someone’s name. I wake up and write it down cause it’s so completely unusual for me. I look it up in the morning and it’s the captain. Like I can’t even tell you his name now even after this happened. So I don’t know why he was on my mind as I hadn’t watched the movie in years. I took it as a sign to rewatch it.
