    I love it when a film shows you everything you need to know about the character without telling you anything. The joker intro was just about perfect.

    <b>A bunch of crazy shit going on and then a freeze frame</b><br>&quot;That&apos;s me. Wondering how I got here?&quot;<br><br>That&apos;s obviously the best way to open a movie.

    I remember watching dark knight as a kid and being like, “where’s f**ken Batman!??”, for the first 15 minutes of the film

    <b>The opening of Logan is like the film maker grabbing a sledge hammer and smashing it in your face, saying “Get ready. You’re in for one hell of a ride.”</b><br>- The closer look 2018

    There is one occasion where a character can narrate at the start.<br><br><br><br><b>I am speed</b>

    LOTR opens with dialogue that basically explains the story. And it is easily one of the best openings.
