What is the best opening scene/ sequence of any movie? And why is it the animated Lion King?

      It breaks my heart that we don’t have 14 Master and Commander films. The books are so good, and are the rare sort of book that would reach make a good movie.

        It’s my absolute favourite book series ever. I kept putting it off and putting it off as I thought - Napoleonic Wars, sailing ships, nah - but they blew me away from book 1.

        There are solid rumours that a script is being written to launch the series as a movie universe. To be honest though, there’s so much detail in each book I think each book would work better as a TV season.

      Random story. I have a god awful memory for names and rarely have dreams. One night I have a dream and specifically even know someone’s name. I wake up and write it down cause it’s so completely unusual for me. I look it up in the morning and it’s the captain. Like I can’t even tell you his name now even after this happened. So I don’t know why he was on my mind as I hadn’t watched the movie in years. I took it as a sign to rewatch it.
