The over all atmosphere of the opening of a film is crucial to any movie, so we need to know what works in a superhero movie.
Kick Ass's opening had a grandiose atmosphere with a large establishing shot with a man looking like he'l fly off a building, he drops and the crowd applauds before he face-lifts into a taxi below. The atmosphere then shifted to a kind of cringe/black comedy.
Deadpool opened with a slow motion pan around a flying taxi with Deadpool and some other men fighting, it was full of either crotch shots or people getting hurt by Deadpool. On top of that the credits were all like jabs towards the actual production team, like calling the camera man "some nerd with a camera".
