The Stand (1994, does this count since it’s a mini series?) Badass the whole way
All of these are good answers, but the movie with the best opening theme is obviously Alan Partridge - Alpha Papa.
There’s no fog!

One I didn’t see mentioned yet: reservoir dogs.

Stargate
Not a movie but the Raised By Wolves opening theme song is pretty epic.
I’ll pull out an obscure old one just for novelty’s sake: The Black Hole. The opening theme captures the entire movie perfectly.
I could list a bunch of movies but it’s easier to say anything scored by John Williams. Superman, Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost 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.
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
Hunt for the Red October
A series, but The Expanse is hauntingly beautiful.
I just saw Deadpool Wolverine last week, and must say Bye Bye Bye aged pretty well 😎
Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
One of the best movies intros I’ve ever seen. Too bad the rest of the movie sucked.
My God, I have not been more bored watching an action movie. I actually turned it off because it was putting me to sleep and I just thought the whole thing was dumb.
And I like marvel movies.
Same here. Except I know I like Marvel movies because of Tony Stark and Dr Strange.
