these characters really really know how
to steal a scene welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 epic movie
entrances for this list we’re taking a
look at film scenes featuring some
pretty impressive character
introductions whether they’re appearing
for the first time or finally meeting
the film’s protagonist these characters
help set the stage for what’s to come –
freedom – the Black Pearl
Plus who doesn’t like to see their
favorite characters step on the scene
like a bus
number ten honey rider doctor no since
this is the first in the James Bond
movie franchise audiences weren’t yet
expecting ridiculously beautiful women
to throw themselves willy-nilly at the
British spy especially not clad in
bikinis
so when honey rider played by the lovely
Ursula Andress emerged from the ocean in
this iconic scene she revolutionized
double-oh-seven movies and the silver
screen the Bond girls entrance wasn’t
just epic
it left an indelible impression on film
audiences for decades and helped
establish the Bond girl legacy I’m just
looking stay where you are I promise I
won’t steal your shelves I promise you
you won’t either it also showed us that
a dagger is the perfect accessory for
fun times at the beach I can assure you
my intentions are strictly honorable
number nine Captain Jack Sparrow Pirates
of the Caribbean the curse of the Black
Pearl
the first glimpse we get of captain
Sparrow he’s approaching a dock aboard a
ship that is rapidly sinking and while
this definitely wouldn’t be the last
we’d see from the curiously entertaining
character his entrance is definitely one
that stands out as Jack’s vessel makes
its way to the dock it’s almost fully
submerged allowing him to step from the
mast onto dry land without missing a
step it’s a more graceful approach than
one would expect from a pirate that just
narrowly avoided drowning to death in
the ocean Oh up there you it’s a
shilling to tie up your boat dock number
eight Tina Carlyle the mask hold the
phone
killer at three o’clock this comic book
turned movie introduced us to Cameron
Diaz in her first feature film
performance
and her movie entrance was so epic that
it essentially launched her entire film
career
I will hold anything you want
Diaz plays Tina Carlyle a sultry lounge
singer who also happens to be the
girlfriend of a notorious gangster
she’s also managed to capture the fancy
of stanley ipkiss
the masks alter ego and lowly bank
employee that’s an interesting time mr.
ipkiss stanley ipkiss Tina Carlyle
pleased to meet you
the pleasure’s all mine Carlyle visits
it kiss at his job and her slow-motion
entrance is topped off with a hair flip
that serves to remind you that you never
would have had a chance
number seven John Doe seven detective
this 90 smash-hit was chock-full of
gruesome surprises and soul-crushing
plot twists it also featured Kevin
Spacey who played John Doe a painfully
calm and frightening Lee even-keeled
serial killer who always seems to be one
step ahead of the police you’re looking
for me
Doe went on a killing spree that was
over a year in the making all while
eluding police detection down on stomach
now oh oh
fast faster faster
yeah it wasn’t until he calmly strode
into the police department to surrender
that it seemed the jig was finally up
I’d like to speak to my lawyer
but the fact that he’d cut off his own
fingertips should have been an
indication that there was more to come
he cuts the skin off the tips of his
fingers that’s why we couldn’t find one
single usable brand in his apartment
looks like he’s been doing it for quite
some time number 6 the Terminator
Terminator 2 Judgment Day
whatever lightning starts to strike and
the scenery randomly catches on fire
you know something major is about to go
down in this follow-up to the original
hit movie our hero makes a grand
entrance a deviation from the butt
cheeks we got in the first movie we are
presented with a time sphere containing
the t800 the killing machine from the
first Terminator movie that’s been
reconfigured to be a bodyguard for the
young John Connor
and considering that a newer shinier
killing machine has been dispatched to
murder the young Connor a time sphere
containing a good guy cyborg has never
been more necessary I need your clothes
your boots and your motorcycle and what
about that bar fight to get clothes
pretty bad to the bone if you ask us
number five the Joker The Dark Knight so
why do they call me Joker
I heard he wears makeup makeup yeah to
scare people in a war paint Heath
Ledger’s brilliant turn as the sociopath
with a smile gave audiences a lot of
memorable moments in this second
installment of Christopher Nolan’s
Batman series but his introduction as
the Joker a criminal with some dangerous
plans for Gotham is what lets us know
that he was about to blow this role out
of the park the film opens to a bank
robbery with a group of armed robbers
donning clown masks as they make quick
work hauling loot from a bank vault over
the course of the crime members of the
group kill other members until only one
remains boss told me when the guy was
done I should take him out one less
share write something similar no no and
when one of them pulls off his mask to
leave some final words with an injured
bank manager that’s when we get our
first glimpse at an icon in the making
what do you believe huh what do you
believe it
I believe whatever doesn’t kill you
simply makes you
stranger number four Hannibal Lecter The
Silence of the Lambs he’s past the
others the last cell
you keep to the right the first rule of
law enforcement is to always keep a
serial killer on deck in case you need
help solving a difficult case believe me
you don’t want Hannibal Lecter inside
your head okay maybe not but it is in
this case said helpful killer happens to
be the not at all creepy or intimidating
Hannibal Lecter played by Anthony
Hopkins
monie when the FBI has run out of leads
in the case of yet another serial killer
who likes to make women skin coats they
seek Lecter’s aid in determining the
killer’s next move you’ll want to jack
off Sonya I am yes
FBI agent Clarice Starling played by
Jodie Foster is dispatched to consult
with Lecter directly good nutrition’s
give me a sling for the bone but you
know more than one generation from poor
white trash are you agent Starling and
that’s when we see him in all of his
disturbingly manipulative glory in
solitary quarters that seem like they’re
probably not safe enough for her or even
for the audience census taken once tried
to test me I ate his liver with some
fava beans and a nice Chianti number
three the t-rex Jurassic Park it’s a
movie about dinosaurs so we knew we’d
get to see some of them in the film
maybe it’s the power trying to come back
on well we probably weren’t expecting
was how absolutely terrifying they would
be on screen
at first it’s all fun and games when an
intrepid CEO invites his grandchildren
to visit him at an incredible theme park
featuring dinosaurs regenerated from
ancient DNA of course things go awry
when corruption within the ranks sets
off a series of events that allows the
dinosaurs to roam and hunt freely
what should have been a peaceful
automated tour for two kids turns into a
face to eyeball confrontation with a
hungry t-rex
it gives us an introduction to an
extremely fearsome predator in its
element number two Darth Vader Star Wars
Episode four a new hope you want to stop
us this time back before audiences were
introduced to Anakin Skywalker
we got Darth Vader in all of his throat
crushing glory Nessa’s our plans are not
in the main computer where are those
transmissions descent and what have you
done with those plans this epic saga of
revolution redemption romance and
convoluted family issues was chock-full
of battles between good and not-so-good
if this is a consular ship where is the
ambassador
we first meet Darth Vader in the
aftermath of a gun battle between rebels
and a band of stormtroopers with
horrendous aim with Darth Vader emerging
from the cloud of gunfire
never has a billowing cape inspired more
dread
without even uttering a word you know
that this dude is most likely evil and
he definitely means business
before we introduce our top pick here
are some honorable mentions
Oh
number one the chest bursting alien
alien terrific neck silly question
there’s making a grand entrance and then
there’s killing your host body during a
light-hearted meal among co-workers
remember some horrible dream about
smothering hidden in this sci-fi scare
fest Sigourney Weaver plays ripley one
of seven crew members trapped aboard a
spaceship with a vicious alien on a
murderous rampage she and the rest of
the crew respond to a distress call and
after one of them survives an attack in
a den of alien eggs they discovered that
one of the creatures has made it on
board not one for subtlety the alien
makes its presence known to the crew and
the audience alike in one of the most
iconic character entrances in movie
