18 Genius Pieces Of Movie Exposition
Tell it like it is...

Puss In Boots (2011)
The Exposition: “Legend tells of an ancient treasure. Hidden for centuries and guarded by giants in a castle in the sky. Whoever finds this treasure will be given riches beyond imagination.”
The Short Version: Magic beans equals golden eggs.
Why It's Genius: The elements of the story - magic beans, beanstalk, goose - are shown in tattoos on a man's body as Puss enjoys a glass of milk at a bar.
But the best moment comes when the drinker's friend says, “Show him the golden eggs” and the man moves to drop his trousers, causing a wide-eyed Puss to shout, “No! Please, you have shown enough.”

Im shocked that the Harry Potter Deathly Hallows part 1 animation about the 3 brothers/ Deathly Hallows is not there! that is awsome and could be a short film in its own right!

I can not believe Back to the Future part 2 is't included. The Doc, a black board, a piece of chalk and an alternate 1985...classic!

No it hasn't. No Indianapolis speech from Jaws? One of the greatest of them all.

Ermmmmmmm freakshows - where on earth is the Prologue from the Lord of the Rings? The first 5 minutes of that is just stunning and sets up the trilogy perfectly! I also agree with Azazeal - The Tale of the Three Brothers is just a beautiful piece of cinema too!

i def agree about harry potter and lord of the rings, but i found Serenity to be a great one, finding out the history of the alliance and the war in an actual history class then Wham! straight into Rivers situation and her escape, which once again turns out to be exposition as well
