* In ''[http://fav.me/ddaajka After Case Report]'', details about how the [[Spice Girls]] and the [[WWE/Characters/Divas| The Bella Twins]] along with [[Daniel Bryan]] teamed up to set a trap to trick the kidnappers into handing over information about what happened to Melanie in ''[http://fav.me/dd7ow55 Case of the Missing Technology]'' hinted at.

* Po's origins in the first ''[[Kung Fu Panda]]''. It looks like we're going to find out toward the end of the movie, but then that turns into [[The Un-Reveal]].
== [[Film]] -- Live Action ==
* ''[[Batman Begins]]'' is an excellent example. When it ended, the plot was resolved, but there was unresolved romance between Bruce Wayne and Rachel Dawes to provide fodder for the next movie.
* This is attempted with Humma Kavula in the ''[[
* ''[[The Phantom Menace]]'' and ''[[Attack of the Clones]]'' ended with several plot points dangling to be picked up in the next installment. Technically, even the last movie of the prequel trilogy, ''[[Revenge of the Sith]]'', ended with dangling plotlines... which were already resolved in the original ''[[Star Wars]]'' trilogy.

* According to [[Word of God]], in the American [[In Name Only]] remake of ''[[Godzilla]]'' there were going to be other [[Kaiju]], but they got held back to appear in the sequel. Perhaps if they had put them in the movie there would actually have been a sequel.

There has been another game released in the series since then and all three members of Star Wolf did appear, confirming that they did survive, though there is ongoing debate among the fandom over whether that game is canon or not.

** Amusingly, this has ended up as an [[Aborted Arc]] - it's one of the few dangling threads that isn't addressed at all (not even in one of Shepard's emails).
* ''[[Pokémon Black and White]]'' left a number of loose ends that weren't wrapped up when the story was finished. Fans were expecting a [[Updated Rerelease|"Grey Version"]] following the pattern from past generations, but instead full sequels are coming out: ''[[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]]''.

* In the commentary track for volume 5 of ''[[RWBY]]'', the writers coyly mention an unspecified plot element which they tried to fit into that volume, but which simply could not be done without sacrificing other necessary plot elements, and which has been pushed back to a later volume. They note that once viewers know what it is, they'll be able to see the hooks and groundwork laid for it in early V5.
