'Short Film Opening' task - Introduction & Opening(s) Research

This year we will be taking on the task of creating a two minute film opening with the genre of a
Comic-Book Movie. At this time me and my group are researching into film openings (including titles/credits) and not deciding yet what will be happening in the film opening.

Opening 

I have been researching into openings from certain Comic-Book Movies such as 'The Incredible Hulk', 'Daredevil' and 'Batman Returns'. One opening that drew me in was the 2008 superhero movie

'The Incredible Hulk', because it had a mix of Live action and special effects, telling an orgin story of the main protaginist in the film and then cutting straight to the movie. So the opening gives you the begining of the film straight away, describing what has been happening to the main character of the film.

The opening of this film is very effective and I think personally draws the audience in as it tells the orgin story of the protaginist. What I love about this opening is the simple fact it is telling a short story and explains the characters, a part of the plot and also, the scale of this movie (special effects, etc).

Here are a few screenshots from the opening titles with a match of live-action and special effects which works really well for a film opening.
