MAGA! FAFO! Schrodinger's Cat walks into a bar, and doesn't. Dumbocraps: evil people who celebrate murder.

Up.
Such an unexpected sad scene to start off what I thought was a fun movie.

Saving Private Ryan. I'd always heard it was a difficult movie to watch, but goddamn. I wasn't expecting an opening quite so brutal.
Hark! Harold the angel sings.

I can only think of
Jaws
.
To this day, I fast forward to the next scene after she gets in the water.
And This, Too, Shall Pass Away

Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
That explosion right at the beginning actually made me jump (talk about starting things off with a bang).

For me it is the opening scene oof the original Halloween. Today, a brother killing his sister is not all that unusual, especially if you are a liberal, but when I first watched it as a kid, it was unthinkable. Thanks to liberals, we have progressed as a nation.
