Title Sequence evalution Homework - Spiderman. (Corey Edwards)

Spider-man is one of the most famous comic characters of all time. The film was one of the most successful ever upon release. The title sequence in spider-man is very much related to the film in terms on font and backgrounds. The names are written in the same font as spider-man's name is on his suit. The background for the names is the shape of a web, the names appear to fall and stick to the web. The title sequence lasts around 4 minutes, the words spin around and seperate, this is supposed to look like the way spider-man spins from web to web in the film. Also in this title sequence there is a use of pop-art images, (much like the ones in original Marval comics) flicking in and out, this sets the scene and introduces the characters.
I like this title sequence because i feel it has a connection to the film more than most. This title sequence is also different to others in the way it is constructed, most films introduce the title of the film either at the beggining or the end, however the words spider-man are scene mid way through the sequemce.
I believe that this title sequence is successfull because it has a different approach and a nice way of linking titles to the movie.
