    Not really an all-time thing, but I love the opening credits to The Watchmen.



    Also...



    Just because it really sets the mood for the movie.

    I also liked the credits for RockNRolla

    I second the Watchmen opening. That was the only part of that film I liked.

    The opening credits from Fight Club, which seem to have been utterly excised from YouTube, are a favourite of mine.

    I quite like the opening to the Hitchhiker's film as well, something about the song really amuses me.

    The opening scene of Touch of Evil with that huge tracking shot is a classic.

    I hate that I can't find a better version of Shaun of the Dead's opening than this.

    You are, as usual, people of discerning and impeccable taste. Many of the ones I had in mind have already been mentioned.

    Does vimeo embed? No. It doesn't.
    Follow the link to the lovely opening of The Kingdom. The history of the U.S. in the Middle East, and Saudi Arabia in particular, in 3 minutes. Youtube clips were all craptacular.


    Lord of War - The life of a bullet.


    Spider-Man 2 - Nothing inordinately fancy or original, but the combination of Danny Elfman's music and Alex Ross' art never fails to get me pumped.
