I have to agree that some of these were really good. Good openings can really keep my attention for the rest of the movie, even when the rest is average.

Any others that you can remember?

I always liked the beginning of Caddyshack.

 

[Devildog]

I'm glad I looked at the link before I typed in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail." That one cracks me up every time I see it. Glad they put it in there.

Didn't look at them all but the one for "The Kingdom" was brilliant.

reservior dogs....and it's not even close

I agree. Very well done. I always like hearing the voice of the guy who narrates Frontline or any number of Discovery Channel docs.

[St. Ouachita]

The Departed - credits about 7-10 min. in, the rolling shot of the jail cells

 

[SWJJ]

Snatch and all of the naked gun series

 

[antipop]

Snatch

indeed

i was going to say Fight Club, but its already on that link.

There's a Resident Evil video game with opening credits that are very similar to the ones from Fight Club.

also, even though its not opening credits, the opening scene in "way of the gun" is brilliant. its probably the best opener ive ever seen.

i cant post it here though, language.

I've always considered the opening sequence in the Nic Cage movie "Lord of War" the best credit squence that I've ever seen. Its fantastic. Best thing about the entire movie.

The Naked Gun would be second.

I just watched "The Kingdom" credit sequence from the list. Really cool and explains alot about what is going on in the world today.

 

[Saint Mike]

I also like all of the James Bond opening sequences.

I always liked the old video camera opening on Happy Gilmore.

 

[SWJJ]

I guess i should watch the kingdom credits.

I have a tendency when watching a dvd to start a movie and get drinks or snacks and then get settled as the credits are winding up...
