Spider-man 3
In this opening title sequence as well as recapping the events of the previous film, the titles introduce the cast of the film. The titles also involves animation of the venom symbiote invading the screen, which fans of the spider-man comics would know, represents the fall of spider-man which is shown later in the film. The sequence also uses colour to its advantage, with the black symbiote, taking over the white webs, which represent evil taking over.

Catch me if you can
The sequence sums up the plot of the entire movie through its use of animation and credits. The animation of credits attract the viewers attention and keep them interested. The credits become part of the environment, with people walking into and hiding behind the credits, which shows the theme of the movie which is of escape and hiding. The opening credits tell the audience what to expect for the rest of the film through the animation of the text and the animation used.

Snatch
In the opening sequence of Snatch, rather than display the credits in conventional order and fashion, the credits tell the audience of the characters names. This suggests that the characters have a more personal role than most characters do in other films, or that all of the characters are important and deserve their own credit. As the text comes up, the screen changes colour for each character, showing their individuality. The font appears as if it has been stamped on the screen, which conveys the theme of their being an aggressive attitude, which will be shown throughout the rest of the film.
