Today I spent my time in class researching 3 film openings for action films. I chose three film openings that sort of resonate with what my film opening's genre is aiming for.
1) John Wick 2

The film opening for John Wick is very simple but it still is a great introduction to the film. It contains a classic motorcycle and car chase scene. The motorcycle is trying to get away from this car and never does because the car catches up and stops him. A mysterious man comes out of the car and grabs something from the guy on the motorcycle. In this man's wrist we can see a watch worn inside the coat which indicates that this is John Wick, since that is his trademark. It keeps him mysterious and it does not show his face. We want to create that sort of mystery for one of our scenes so I believe this could bee good inspiration.
2) Avengers: Infinity War

I believe this is one of the most interesting and exciting film openings in superhero movies. I enjoy the tension that is created in the opening scene of this movie and the fear that this group of bad guys impose on audiences. My group and I aren't aiming for something this serious but the seriousness of the antagonists is something we want to implement into one of our characters. We also wan to do something that leaves a mark sort of like this film opening.
3) Oceans 12!!!

Yes Oceans 12! I Love this film and I believe is one of the most fun heist/spy movies of our generation. The film opening to this film, I believe is super funny. The description of the character and him getting away once he's gotten caught is hilarious. We want to add that sort of element to our film opening scene. We want our protagonist to be humorous and witty. A little smartass I would say. This is great inspiration for it....
