'''Basic Trope''': Foreshadowing out of chronological order, when the consequences of an act are introduced before the act itself occurs.
* '''Straight''': [[Creator/ChristopherNolan Nolan]] sees a mangled bike on the sidewalk before seeing his friend [[Creator/QuentinTarantino Quentin]] lying unconscious on the grass nearby.
* '''Exaggerated''': Nolan [[AnachronicOrder sees every event in his life happen backwards to forwards]] [[WeirdnessMagnet by somehow always being at the right vantage point to do so]].
* '''Downplayed''': Nolan [[FiveSecondForeshadowing hears Quentin crash]] before seeing his bike tumble onto the sidewalk.
* '''Justified''': [[NonLinearCharacter Nolan can see through time]].
* '''Inverted''': Nolan sees Quentin [[{{Foreshadowing}} biking recklessly before he crashes]].
* '''Subverted''': Nolan thinks Quentin has crashed, [[RedHerring but the bike isn't his]], and he's just resting his eyes.
* '''Double Subverted''': Quentin is resting from having just finished running from Paula, owner of the bike he "borrowed", [[ChekhovsGun who shows up shortly afterward to harangue him further about destroying it]].
* '''Parodied''': Nolan [[DitzyGenius briefly thinks he's traveled back in time]].
* '''Zig Zagged''': Paula borrowed the bike she loaned to Orson from someone else; after inspecting it, she realizes Orson didn't trash it at all, and that it looked just as beat-up as when she loaned it to him. Nolan [[GreatDetective suggests there's a mystery afoot]], [[HereWeGoAgain and the three set off to figure out just what happened to the bike]].
* '''Averted''': Nolan sees Quentin's crash from start to finish.
* '''Enforced''': Nolan [[MentalTimeTravel is traveling backward through time using his perspective]], meaning he can only see what he's seen in reverse.
* '''Lampshaded''': Nolan sees things happen backwards so much he has the nickname [[GeniusBonus "Epimetheus"]].
* '''Invoked''': Nolan [[ImagineSpot imagined Quentin's crash scenario]] as a way of [[MindScrew wrapping his head around nonlinearity]].
* '''Exploited''': Nolan uses his precognitive abilities to solve mysteries before they occur.
* '''Defied''': Neither Nolan, nor Quentin, nor Paula know where the bike came from or who it belongs to. [[RiddleForTheAges It's just there]].
* '''Discussed''': "I always wondered what [[Film/TheCuriousCaseofBenjaminButton that Button guy]] felt like."
* '''Conversed''': Nolan tries to work out in words just how a person live his life totally backwards, always seeing the future before the present.
* '''Implied''': Nolan reacts to Quentin's crash [[BehindTheBlack before the audience sees the mangled bike]].
* '''Deconstructed''': Nolan anticipates the future to the point where [[TheFatalist it puts a significant damper on his life in the now]].
* '''Reconstructed''': Constantly seeing causality in reverse has given Nolan a healthy knack for avoiding unintended consequences and maximizing returns on investment, both of which result in a prosperous, if unexciting, life.
* '''Played for Laughs''': Nolan is so focused on anticipating things that he [[FailedASpotCheck falls into a drainage ditch]].
* '''Played for Drama''': [[Film/MinorityReport Nolan has to stop a deadly crime using clues from events that haven't happened yet to find the soon-to-be guilty culprit]].
