I want to open a movie with a dude in a handcuffs with two goons above him- FREEZE FRAME: "This is me. You're probably wondering how I got into this situation?" Cut to two seconds earlier of him being pulled into room. HIM: "Yup, dragged in through that door and shoved down."

Can it work sometimes? Yeah sure, of course. It works in Iron Man because it's a way of emotionally telling the audience "don't worry, this cocksure jack ass is going to pay for his behavior soon" and it ONLY lasts like twenty minutes of screen time.

Again, everything has to be ingrained in dramatic story function. Don't hide under artifice. HULK OUT.

Oh because people already bringing up Breaking Bad. They were probably better at playing with it that anyone. Sometimes it was poetic, sometimes functional, sometimes total misdirect... but the thing to notice most of all is how they mostly phased it out as the series went on :)
