Film Openings

I have watched a number of opening sequences for films over the past weeks and the styles differ quite a lot.
In some openings it introduces characters and in others the director takes a more abstract view, for example in "Napoleon Dynamite" the opening is of different foods with peoples names written on them with mustard or ketchup.
Whereas in "17 Again" the opening is a scene between a basketball player in high school (Zac Efron) and his coach. This is a typical opening sequence as it sets the scene for the rest of the movie. Whereas in "Napoleon Dynamite" takes an alternative approach for the movie.
