I'd say Watchmen has top spot for me. Tells a story in itself and its absolutely beautiful. The Spider-man 2 opening gives be goosebumps every time I see it, so it's a shame Spidey hasn't hit the same heights since. He deserves it more than any Marvel super hero IMO. Xmen 2 was awesome too, not only for the amazing Nightcrawler Opening but the characteristic credits open starting with Xaviers monologue. Still the best X-men movie to this day.

Does the Usual Suspects lineup scene still count as the opener?

Bane had an awesome intro that rivals Jokers bank heist intro. Dude pulled off his plan without a hitch, and established himself as a leader his followers would die for without a second thought. Good pick thumb up

Off the top of my head:

Inglourious Basterds
Raiders of the Lost Arc
The Dark Knight

Star Trek 2009.

Star Trek also had a great opening. Really similar to Man of Steels (which was possibly the best part of the entire movie). Fathers dieing to set up the villain and the main hero of the story.

Also agreed with Inglorious Basterds. The Jew Hunter was phucking awesome

Ascendancy
Heat
The Way of the Gun
Equilibrium

Dude did you use a Uwe Boll movie? Shame on you. Why did you have to remind me he exists? Oh shit now I just had flashbacks to the Bloodrayne movie. Oh shit Meatloaf was a f*cking vampire.

Definitely Inglorious Bastards but my personal favorite is Serenity with the Operative.

If we're going classic here the Rosebud scene in Citizen Kane is iconic.

Maybe I'm weird because everyone goes on about how good Citizen Kane is and..I just didn't like it.

Forgot about Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade, both awesome.

The first Star Wars movie..seeing that big star destroyer come on screen..it's epic.

It's less of a story then it is a didactic piece espousing Orson Welle's agenda and personal feelings. But it's probably the most perfectly made movie in cinematic history if you really analyze what every subtle touch means.
