*** This was done to match up with the new BigBad, Xemnas, which makes it a bit of a WallBanger in that despite the two of them [[spoiler: being technically the same guy]] they are also, in fact, two different characters.

[[quoteright:325:Above, Claudia Wells. Below, Elisabeth Shue.]]

* The ending scene of ''BackToTheFuture'' is also the opening scene of ''Back To The Future Part II''. Since Elisabeth Shue had replaced Claudia Wells as Jennifer, the scene was refilmed for the sequel. The re-shot version is nearly identical, with the only difference being that Doc Brown now [[HesitationEqualsDishonesty hesitates momentarily]] before responding to Marty asking whether he and Jennifer end up as "assholes".

* ''MegaManBattleNetwork 5'' manages to do this in a visual manner with an entire town. Lan's hometown of ACDC had been identical in the first three games of the series (the only major differences being which rooms and buildings were accessible), but the map changed in the ''Battle Network 4''. Flashbacks in ''Battle Network 5'' from long before the events of the first game show the town exactly as it appears from Battle Network 4'' onwards.

* The first episode of [[TenchiMuyo Tenchi Muyo's 3rd OVA]] featured a flashback episode explaining events from the previous two OVAs. However, the voice actress for Ryoko had been replaced for the new series. So the flashback clips had been dubbed over with the new voice actress, Mona Marshall.

* The prologue to the second ''DarkMan'' movie. Technically it's the same footage as the first movie, but Liam Neeson has been replaced with the new actor via trick photography.
* [[{{Godzilla}} Godzilla x Megaguirus]] does an interesting take on this. The beginning uses footage from the first film, ''Gojira'', as part of the film's timeline history, but the original Godzilla is replaced with the modern suit. Justified in that Godzilla wasn't defeated by the Oxygen Destroyer in this timeline, so it is the same Godzilla in both 1954 and 2001.

* ''TheSarahConnorChronicles'' does this with pictures and the occasional flashback to the earlier films.

** Also averted with MS T3k itself in the Hellcats episode, with Tom Servo (played by Kevin Murphy) having a flashback to an episode from the previous season (played by J. Elvis Weinstein.) Even [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by Servo saying it was before his voiced changed.
* {{Seinfeld}} refilmed an entire episode after Frank Costanza was recast. The effect was quite disconcerting considering the fact that the version of the character played by John Randolph was very different to the version played by Jerry Stiller.

* When Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman's Colleen was recast in the 3rd season, they re-shot the opening titles (originally scenes from season 1) with a shot-by-shot redo using the new actress.

* ''MenInBlack: The Series'' has a flashback to the end of the first movie in the episode that features Edgar's brother Edwin. Of course, it'd be really awkward to flash back to a live action movie in an animated series, so it was an animated version of it, with the series' voice actors of course.

* Leon is (re)dubbed over in the flashbacks at the beginning of ''KingdomHeartsII''. The flashbacks in the game used the new ''FinalFantasy''-cameo voice cast, most egregiously Aeris's soft, cute voice turning into a hazy stoner voice.

* ''WeissKreuz Gluhen'' has a reverse of the ''[[AvatarTheLastAirbender Avatar]]'' example below. Legal issues prevented the original character designs from being used for the OddlyNamedSequel, so flashbacks to the previous series (and two photographs supposedly taken around that time) had to be redone with the new character designs.

* When Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman's Colleen was recast in the 3rd season, they re-shot the opening titles (originally scenes from the season 1) with a shot-by-shot redo using the new actress.

* [[{{Godzilla}} ''Godzilla x Megaguirus'']] does an interesting take on this. The beginning uses footage from the first film, ''Gojira'', as part of the film's timeline history, but the original Godzilla is replaced with the modern suit. Justified in that Godzilla wasn't defeated by the Oxygen Destroyer in this timeline, so it is the same Godzilla in both 1954 and 2001.

* The flashbacks in ''MetalGearSolid4'' were made up of about half-and-half dialogue from the {{PlayStation}} version of ''MetalGearSolid'', and the {{GameCube}} version ''The Twin Snakes''. The dialogue from the [=GameCube=] version was used for characters whose accents had changed (such as Naomi's Ivy League accent and Mei Ling's pseudo-Chinese accent being dropped for conventional American ones) and the recasting of RobPaulsen as Gray Fox instead of the original's Greg Eagles. This was a non-issue in the Japanese version due to [[AnimeAccentAbsence its lack of absences]] and the fact that ''The Twin Snakes'' never had a Japanese dub, meaning that all the voice clips from the original''Metal Gear Solid'' used in the Japanese version of ''Metal Gear Solid 4'' are purely from the original [=PlayStation=] release.

* The flashbacks in ''MetalGearSolid4'' were made up of about half-and-half dialogue from the {{PlayStation}} version of ''MetalGearSolid'', and the {{GameCube}}'s ''Twin Snakes'' version. The GCN version's dialogue was used for characters whose accents had changed (such as Naomi's Ivy League accent and Mei Ling's pseudo-Chinese accent being dropped for conventional American ones) and the recasting of RobPaulsen as Gray Fox instead of the original's Greg Eagles. This was a non-issue in the Japanese version due to [[AnimeAccentAbsence the lack of absences in the Japanese versions]] and the fact that [=GCN=] version of ''[=MGS1=]'' never had a Japanese dub, meaning that all the voice clips from ''[=MGS1=]'' used in the Japanese ''[=MGS4=]'' are purely from the original [=PS=] release.

The GC dialogue was used for characters whose accents had changed (such as Naomi's Ivy League accent and Mei Ling's pseudo-Chinese accent being dropped for conventional American ones) and the recasting of RobPaulsen as Gray Fox instead of the original Greg Eagles. And as a neat side-effect, this causes no end of confusion about which (slightly different) version of events is considered canonical, which is entirely HideoKojima's style. (The real life reason for this trope is because the GCN voice recordings are of higher quality than the original PS ones.)

** I hope your not referring to the trial scene? Because thats ot true... :/
