- Ennio Morricone’s music for the Man With No Name series
Terminator 2: Judgment day
Perhaps a bit on the campy side, the opening theme song of the original Highlander was always one of my favorites:
Princes of the Universe by Queen.My all time favourite is Lord of war. Perfect song, nice way to show the bullet production and then in the end when it hits its target… Could not imagine a better opening to this movie. Especially once you get to know that it is based on some real russian arms dealer.
I believe it’s “warlord.”
Thanks but i prefer it my way
Star Wars episode 4 - A New Hope
Stargate
There can be only one: Highlander
The Stand (1994, does this count since it’s a mini series?) Badass the whole way
A series, but The Expanse is hauntingly beautiful.
One I didn’t see mentioned yet: reservoir dogs.
Plup fiction’s intro was captivating.
And the beginning being the ending…chef’s kiss.
My pick is Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 masterpiece, 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Also Sprach Zarathustra by Richard Strauss will forever be one of cinema’s greatest opening themes. And combined with the opening credits of the movie with the sun rising slowly over the Earth was absolutely groundbreaking and legendary. It is truly one of the greatest opening credits sequences of all time.
I could list a bunch of movies but it’s easier to say anything scored by John Williams. Superman, Star Wars, Raiders of the Last Ark, Jaws. I never caught Close Encounters of the Third Kind but I’ll go out on a limb and say it’s good just on faith.
He scored some other things, but that’s what I remember off the top of my head.
Hans Zimmer too. Not quite the same legendary status as our John, but still quite the impressive record.
