{{examples
== Films -- Animation ==
* ''[[Monsters, Inc. (Animation)|Monsters Inc.]]'' and ''[[Kung Fu Panda (Animation)|Kung Fu Panda]] '' have opening sequences that engage in [[Medium Blending]] to 2D animation.
* A recent trend is for CGI features to have 2-D animation for the closing credits: ''[[The Incredibles (Animation)|The Incredibles]]'', ''[[Ratatouille]]'', ''[[WALL-E]]'', ''[[Kung Fu Panda (Animation)|Kung Fu Panda]]'', ''[[Bolt (Disney)|Bolt]]'', ''[[Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs]]'', ''[[Tangled (Disney)|Tangled]]'', etc.
* ''.hack//Liminality'' features opening credits over the ''.hack'' game footage.
Line 37:
* ''[[Elf (Film)|Elf]]''
* ''[[Four Rooms (Film)|Four Rooms]]'' -- interesting for containing references to the cut fifth story.

Line 119:
* ''[[Wheel of Fortune (TV)|Wheel of Fortune]]'' used some in the 1990s, including anthropomorphic Wheel wedges dancing down a staircase, then one of Pat and Vanna parachuting, then a CGI shot of the Sony Pictures Studios. In 2010, the opening sequence featured Miis of Pat and Vanna to promote the then-upcoming [[Home Game]] for Nintendo's Wii and DS.
* ''[[Whew]]'', another game show by producer Jay Wolpert, who just loved these in general.
* The British version of ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway? (TV)|Whose Line Is It Anyway]]'' featured [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tisjk7CqNsQ&feature=related this title sequence] in its later seasons, which was evidently inspired by a series of Italian animated shorts, "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skb2gKR7rOk La Linea]".
* ''[[The Wild Wild West (TV)|The Wild Wild West]]''
