Thinking of the cult movies made me think about what opening scenes have had the most visual impact on me.

Saving Private Ryan was the most intense, I think.

The original Star Wars was the best. Sitting up close the movie screen, of course, watching the ship go and go and go, getting bigger and bigger. And then being followed by the Death Star.

But right among those two, is the opening scene of Monty Python In Search of the Holy Grail. It just sets up the rest of the movie.

 

 Saving Private Ryan was cool and to 1up your Star Wars one, I think the opening part of Space Balls was pretty funny.
