I was just watching Soul (2020) with my son. One of the many things I love about this film is the delayed title sequence, which doesn’t begin until around ten minutes into the movie.

I think what I love about this technique might be that I’m more aware of the sequence when it arrives unexpectedly late, interrupting the film. It also seems to signal that THIS is where the movie truly begins.

What are some other examples of delayed title sequences? And in general do you like the technique, as I do, or do you find it distracting?
