I agree it’s a cool idea and has a lot going for it. I watched the whole opening section that way to try it out and it felt rushed to me. I like the opening “going on a wordless journey” montage aspect of the opening and never had a problem with it. For a movie that often feels breakneck paced, having it open this way is at least something to offset that aspect.
I sincerely applaud this move in another fan edit, but I don’t think it should be this one!
