Sound
I think that the main idea about the story that is trying to
be introduced is that these gang youths believe that
theyre the most dominant people in the area of the
council estate that they live on.
I believe that this are is what theyre referring to as in the
sequence as The Block which comes from the block of
council flats that they live in.
However, the sequence ends by showing the audience
multiple shooting stars, which are probably carrying more
aliens, heading towards Earth.
This is probably supposed to tell us that this gang of
youths will probably be in more situations with more aliens
in the future.

Title Conventions
The few titles that appear in the title
sequence for Attack The Block are simple
types of titles.
They use titles on a blank black screen for
three of the titles. They feature centred
text with a simple, bold & sans serif font
with a white and orange colour scheme.
However, the main film title is the only title
that appears stylized over a moving
image.
The main title saying Attack The Block
expands over the moving CGI of the other
asteroids heading towards earth.
The titles appear in the order as presented
on the right. From top to bottom, where
top was the first and bottom was the last.
