* There's a lot of scenes in ''[[Unbreakable]]'' where characters are pictured in door frames and such, to mimic the frame effect of the comic books that form an integral part of the plot.
* The Laurence Olivier film of ''[[Henry V]]'' is purportedly actually a film of an Elizabethan-era performance of ''[[Henry V]]''; at the beginning, we get to see some glimpses of the backstage. As the film goes on, it gets less and less theatrical, presumably corresponding to the audience's increased immersion in the plot.
Line 37:
* The ''[[Doom]]'' movie kept whole scenes in first person POV, in tribute of the original game, that defined FPS.
* ''[[Scott Pilgrim vs. the World]]'' does this twofold: as a film adaptation of a comic book whose plot runs on video-game logic, it has quite a few video-game elements (scores, extra lives, enemies that turn into coins when defeated, and so on) as well as displaying most of its flashback scenes in the form of animated comic book panels and making extensive use of comic-book style onomatopoeia.

* The 1975 ''[[Wonder Woman]]'' series used comic book panels both over the titles and for some transitions within each episode.
* The onomatopoetic "Biff! Bam! Pow!"s in the ''[[Batman (TV series)|Batman]]'' '60s TV series.
* ''[[The Adventures of Brisco County Jr]]'' had each episode broken down so that each act was a chapter in a pulp western. One episode even had a father (in-universe, mind you) reading one of these books to his son, in a manner not unlike ''[[The Princess Bride (
* The credits of ''[[The Cape (TV series)|The Cape]]'' show comic book panels coming to life.
* [[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]] portrayed itself as a comic book in television form, calling its episodes "chapters" and its seasons "volumes."

== [[Video Games]] ==
* ''[[Odin Sphere]]'' is framed as a little girl reading a series of books about characters whose stories interconnect, so each character's tale starts with pages flipping and is separated into prologues, chapters, and epilogues. The 2d graphics are also a bit reminiscent of a picture book.
* ''[[Max Payne (
* ''[[XIII]]''. The whole game has [[Cel Shading]] to look like a 2D drawn comic book, onomatopoeic effects and speech bubbles appear during the gameplay,
* The sides of most of the stages in [[Jump Super Stars]] and [[Jump Ultimate Stars]] look like a stack of pulp paper, mimicking the pages of [[Weekly Shonen Jump]]. Because of this, you can [[Die, Chair, Die!|rip the sides away,]] allowing you to ring out your opponent. As your health goes down, you colors become more washed out as well, becoming greyscale when you only have a sliver of health. And, of course, the [[Inventory Management Puzzle]] that uses actual panels from the manga to determine your lineup.
* In ''[[Comix Zone]]'' an author get sucked into the comic he's drawing by his own villain, who then draws mooks for him to fight against throughout the game, with fights happening within panels and all kinds of wall breaking.
* ''[[Anachronox]]'' has [[Super Villain]] [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Rictus]] with a comic-book style intro and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVgUG3Jkdzc&t=2m49s narrator cameo].
