You need to offer some analysis of this, Esther. Foer example, is there any pattern with regard to who makes these films (major studios? Independents distributed by majors?). What have you learned from your analysis - what does it tell you about the genre? What sort of ideas have you taken from this? With regard to the credits, is there any pattern to them (for example, order they come up on the screen etc.)? What about typeface (font) - is there a typical one which is used? How do the titles generally work.
With regard to your opening sequence analysis, you need to go beyond individual shots. You should consider use of editing; how the titles link into these; the use of music; how the story is presented; the kind of characters etc. You should also be thinking about the kind of scenes which are used and how you might replicate this in your piece. You need to present a far clearer overview of your understanding.
I would suggest at least one blog entry where you review your findings based on my suggestions above in order to clarify your thinking.
