movie intros

                                                       movie intros

movie intros are important as they have to captivate the person watching the film, and make them feel they want to watch more. if a film does not do this, then the person will feel less inclined to watch the film to the end, and will think the movie is bad. therefore, the film must be engaging, and fulfil the viewers expectations in the first few minutes.

 

in this opening scene from x-men, days of future past, the mutants are fighting the sentinels that are attempting to kill them, and as the battle goes on, more and more mutants die, and it ends with the place becoming deserted. I think the scene is very effective, as it is an engaging action scene which many viewers will find entertaining it also sets the tone of the film, with it being quite a ark film, as it involves robots attempting to kill all mutants, and you see some murdered. it is also surprising, as you would not expect to see the heroes die in the first scene of the film, so it is different from other openings, in which the hero saves the day. the opening is also effective because many people would be wondering what happened to all the people, and why they suddenly disappeared, and so will want to watch on.

 

this opening theme from the hobbit: an unexpected journey is effective, as it opens up with the backstory of one of the main characters, who we will meet later on in the film, and it shows us why how erebor is taken by smaug, and why he dwarves are so intent on taking it back. the scene is also effective sit includes action of the dragon fighting the dwarves, and it will entertain viewers. the film also makes you want to watch on, so you can see what happens to the dwarves, and if they will reclaim erebor.

this opening scene  from iron man 2 is effective as it starts off with tony stark in the iron man suit, jumping out of a plane, with rock music playing behind him, which makes it feel as though he is about to go into battle, but then fireworks set off in the sky, and this makes it feel more like a celebration. he then lands, and there is an audience cheering for him as his suit is taken off, which is good as it makes people wonder what's going on, and why he's worn his suit to a party.  then his suit is taken off to reveal he's wearing  tuxedo which  is funny, and then he waves to people while the song ends the music is also effective as it has an iron man feel to it.
