I was just wondering wich first ten or tweny minutes of any movie was the most kick ass.

"X2" had a very good opening in my opinion. Awesome. So did "Final Destination 2" 🙂

I forgot to mention Terminator 2.

I Liked The Openings For Kung Pow, And Mystery Men. They Had Pretty Good Openings (For Comedies) And As For Everything Else I Think Kill Bill 1 & 2 Have Just About The Most Kick Ass Openings Ever. Hell, EVERY Tarantino Flick Has Bitchin' Opening!

I love the opening for The Two Towers! Gandalf falling into shadow with the Balrog of Morgath is I think one of my favorite scenes of all time. I crank the volume up at home, and it sounds sooooooooooo awesome in surround!!!!

Batman Begins

Just seeing some guy in a Chinese Prison and beating the crap out of guys then suddenly finding out he's Bruce Wayne! 😱 Awesome!

full metal jacket.
and i kinda agree with batman begins.
but there are alot of movies with really "badass" openings.
its all about how u look at it the word "badass"

but i know a movie thats not out that will have a badass opening.
filled with gore, guns, fire, death, and babes.
lol face it, if they do make a duke nukem movie its guna be badass right from the start....well i hope it will.

It didn't necessarily suck, but it was totally different from the first half. It was more or less Animal Mother playing the de-evolution of man. Remember towards the end when he got his first kill? He went from scared as hell to doing whatever it took to survive.

First 10 minutes of "Empire Strikes Back"...nuff said.

*tries to recall*

The battle at Hoth? That was pretty good. A few movies come to mind that are better, though. 😬

what about sin city?
the first scene with josh hartnet and that girl was kind of a snoozer (movies is damn good though)

Shaun of the Dead, Clockwork Orange, Kill Bill

What do you think about Scary Movie 4 ? ;D...

P.S. What the hell means kicks ass? I think its "very good" or "imressive"?

Yes, "kick ass" means "very good"

All the Star Wars films.
Batman Returns.
Batman 89.
Batman Begins.

The Thin Red Line has to have my favorite first ten minutes out of any movie.

"Spacehunter: the adventure's in the forbidden zone".
yeah ok the whole movie sucks, BUT! i do have a point which has to do with this thread.

ok so my point is u can take the first ten mins of any of the film said here and that is already more action then u would see in all of the movie "Spacehunter: the adventure's in the forbidden zone"

"WTF" indeed

Almost any James Bond movie.

Also, Speed, which started with the bomber, the people trapped in the elevator, and the confrontation in which he was "blown up".

That was as good as some endings to action flicks.

Gangs of New York was unreal... so was Saving Private Ryan.

Hm. X2 probably gets my vote. The whole thing with Nightcrawler. Excellent.

From Dusk Till Dawns first scene is pretty bad ass. personally i love the first part of High Fidelity, one of my favourite movies
