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.
