Line 56:
* The [[Film of the Book]] of ''[[Narnia|The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe]]'' starts in WWII London, where German fighter pilots are conducting an air raid.
** ''Prince Caspian'' similarly starts with Caspian escaping Miraz's assassination attempt, followed by the book's original opening of the Pevensie siblings at the train station.
* ''[[Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (film)|Harry Potter]] and the Half-Blood Prince]]'' opens with Voldemort's Death Eaters kidnapping the wandmaker Ollivander and destroying the Millennium Bridge in London.
* The 1985 IMAX film ''The Dream Is Alive'' looks like a subversion at first- it opens with about a minute of an alligator and some birds going about their business in a Florida swamp- THEN we hear sonic booms as the space shuttle flies overhead and it cuts to a dramatic touchdown, true to form.
* ''[[Diary of the Dead]]'' begins with internet footage of a zombie attack on some TV journalists, then cuts to the protagonists making a horror movie and slowly finding out about the [[Zombie Apocalypse]]. Justified as the whole movie is meant to have been edited by one of the protagonists after the event anyway.
