Not movie but TV series

Hunters season 1 episode 1
The opening sequence
So frigging surreal
Really dream like like a desert hallucination or outright dream but in a good way

As for movies, need to think back
Most do a slow burn which doesn't work when movie is streamed

Specifically the opening … Terminator 2 - Sarah Connor narrating, scene is from the future … camera focus on a skull on the ground, and then … stomp, crushed … and the camera moves up to reveal the owner of the foot, a Terminator skeleton holding a pulse rifle.

But only the 1st time ever watching it in the cinema … subsequent times watching it on DVD etc … never felt that again.
