Boyega in the desert - it's strange that people would say that this shot isn't Star War-sy, as it's a similar reveal to the trooper standing into frame in the desert of Tatooine (look sir, droids!)
Oh, how did I miss that? It looked more like shot from Indiana Jones to me (like all those shots when the camera is very close to Indy's nose when he's searching something he can't find. And no... not like the prairie dog!). But yeah, it's obviously an hommage to the shot you described.
