A Big Entrance is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. An entrance so over-the-top and so cool, ensuring that every character's eyes are on that entrance, that the entrance itself merits its own entry on the Moment of Awesome page.
The absolute most important things in the entrance are that the entrance itself has to be loud, it has to be overly dramatic, it has to catch the attention of all characters present, and it has to be cool. There are many other tropes that can help achieve this, including, but not limited to...
Big Damn Heroes: Because if someone is going to save everyone from the Monster of the Week, they're going to have a dramatic entrance.
Dynamic Entry: When the entering character has their foot buried in another character's temple, you can be damn sure you have everyone's attention.
Grand Staircase Entrance: Often understated, but no less awesome, when someone descends from a great staircase.
Hammy Herald: Why chew the scenery when you hire someone to do it for you?
Incoming Ham: Adding a hammy, memorable line helps a lot.
One-Liner: Occasionally, they help.
Team Power Walk: When done right.
Running Over the Plot: As character introductions go, either running someone over or being run over is extremely memorable.
Super Window Jump: With the loud crash and broken glass falling like rain, it's literally impossible to make this kind of entrance without being noticed.
Theme Music Power-Up: Often playing in conjunction with an Unflinching Walk, Three-Point Landing, There Was a Door, Team Power Walk, or Dynamic Entry.
There Was a Door: It's really hard for your entrance to go unnoticed when you make your entrance by smashing through the wall.
Three-Point Landing: With entrances involving a great height, this helps to say "nothing can hurt me."
Unflinching Walk: Only when walking into a situation.
The diametric opposite of the "Stealth Hi" in a Stealth Hi/Bye.
Although many Dynamic Entries are part of this trope, not all are. A dynamic entry is an entrance plus violence. This trope is an entrance plus drama/awesome (violence optional).
May become an Establishing Character Moment. Contrast Jobber Entrance. Not to be confused with Big Door.
One Sub-Trope of this is Crash in Through the Ceiling, which is for when there's a loud entrance through a ceiling.

The animated adaptation of Sengoku Basara is so rife with over-the-top introductions that you can instantly tell exactly what kind of approach the creators are going for.
Oda Nobunaga is introduced to Masamune and Yukimura by holding at gun point the cowardly Yoshimoto on top of a cliff, with dark clouds swirling in the sky and Hiroyuki Sawano's soundtrack blasting the scenery to bits with Gratuitous German. When you're looking for the advent of an Obviously Evil villain, look no further.
Hideyoshi Toyotomi first appears before the other lords by circling their already engaged armies with an even bigger army of his own and overlooking the scene from atop a hill. The Uesugi and Takeda factions, defiant as they are, order a volley of arrows on him. Hideyoshi's answer? One wave of his arm to deflect it all back, then a skyward punch that clears the clouds, all to the sound of his tailor-made leitmotif.

Terror of Mechagodzilla has Titanosaurus going on a rampage in one scene. The camera pans over to a separate set of buildings as a familiar, spiny silhouette appears. Titanosaurus is shown again as he is promptly blasted by a blue Breath Weapon. We then go back to that silhouette as the lighting increases to reveal Godzilla.

Wonder Woman (1987): Three of the Bana's chief deities — Neith, Bast, and Isis — make a grand entrance when they come to Olympus to join with the Themysciran's patrons to go give Hera a piece of their minds for destroying Themyscira. They do a Team Power Walk down the staircase to their allies with a wall of flame containing their steeds and carriage behind them and Neith gets off a one liner about kicking Hera's keister.

In the Heralds of Valdemar series, Princess Elspeth is gone on a mission for longer than expected, and rumors circulate that her stepfather has murdered her so his own children can take the throne. Fortunately, the new allies she's gathered include two mages (one of them flamboyant), a catlike girl, two gryphons, and their two gryphlets, meaning her entry into the capital city becomes an impromptu parade. By the time she's back home, there's no doubt that she's alive and well.

In Maiden Rose, Hasebe is about to kill Klaus when suddenly his sword is shattered. Following this is a two page spread of an ill Taki standing in the doorway, sporting a Death Glare, katana drawn, wearing a Badass Longcoat as a Coat Cape blowing in the Dramatic Wind against a stream of white light, with some flower petals floating around for good measure. The shocked looks from the others are pretty well warranted at that point.

Monsters University: Hardscrabble loves these, the best being her introductory scene. She swoops in, quickly shuts of nearly all sources of light in a way that can only be described as "borderline telekinetic", and then slowly slithers up from the darkness. The best part is that her entire entrance leaves no room for discussion about her credentials as a Scarer.

This is part and parcel of the spectacle. All wrestlers would have music and theatrics, some would have pyros, fireworks, explosions. Some example would include Shawn Michaels and the zipline, Sting and the helicopter absail, Goldberg standing in the fireworks, Kane using fire and explosives, and Rey Mysterio using trapdoors or Sin Cara using a trampoline.

Arrow:
Oliver first meets the Black Canary when he's surrounded by a SWAT Team, only for the Canary to smash through an overhead skylight, then break every other sheet of glass in the room using her sonic device so she and Oliver can jump out the window while everyone else is clutching their ears in pain.
In Season 6, Oliver is on trial for being the Arrow, so an Identity Impersonator enters the courtroom by crashing through the overhead skylight to further sell the idea that he's the real Green Arrow.

RoboCop has a special version of this to answer concerns that a simple open entrance could make the title character look silly. Instead, Verhoeven has Murphy's entrance teased out with first his support crew coming and, as the Desk Sgt. protests, he is suddenly silenced by the sound of heavy mechanical footsteps of some figure entering the station, barely visible through frosted glass. That is followed by teasing looks that become more and more revealing until you are eagerly following the running cops through the halls trying to get a good look at this thing. At the end, you get to see RoboCop towering in his maintenance chair and looking completely kickass.

In Sleeping Beauty Mistress Flora, Mistress Fauna and Mistress Merryweather arrive in a heavenly light of sparkles when Lord Duke declares, “Their most honored and exalted Excellencies, the Three Good Fairies!

Later in the same sequence, Maleficent gets a really cool one, by blowing the doors open, filling the palace with Dramatic Wind and lightning, and slowly coalescing out of green flame. Seen here. It's subtle, understated, and threatening as all hell.

Escamillo, the toreador from Georges Bizet's opera Carmen, enters from a distance with a large chorus singing about how great he is. When he arrives onstage, he then proceeds to sing about how great he is in a song that is as flamboyant, pompous and likable as he is, complete with lots of percussion, dramatic descriptions of bullfighting and possibly the catchiest tune in this catchiest of operas.note Escamillo is a minor character in the original story without this much splash. Bizet wrote the "Toreador Song" as kind of a campy parody of this kind of character and music. He said "Well, they wanted some shit, so here it is."

In the penultimate episode of Justice League, Darkseid has been resurrected by Lex Luthor (it was an accident). Since his death, a civil war has been raging on Apokalips as to who would take his place. Just as the final battle is about to take place, Darkseid immediately puts a stop to the war by making a literal explosive entrance of epic proportions. Without him even saying a word, everyone from both sides immediately redeclares allegiance to him without a single protest. Darkseid Is indeed.

In Episode 11 of Cross Ange, Arzenal is under attack by a large swarm of DRAGONS. The Normas are initially successful at repelling the invasion, but then they hear a soothing song that conspicuously makes the DRAGONS back off and retreat around the dimension gap where they came from. From the same gap, three machines that conspicuously resemble Ragna-mails dramatically make their descent, the first of which is the red-colored Enryugo piloted (though not shown yet) by Salamandinay... who then proceeds to activate the mecha's Golden Super Mode via singing and wipe out an entire squadron of Norma Para-mails, as well as half of Arzenal's island, with a single Wave-Motion Gun.

In Assassination Classroom, when The Final Question arrives at the very end of the second term finals, it does not do so subtly. The manga merely has it flying in, smashing its way into the imaginary arena. But in the anime, it arrives through a giant black hole in the sky that spits out lightning everywhere, surrounded by a halo of flames. Everyone but Karma and Gakushuu can only look on in awe. this is an appropriate visual metaphor for reaching the very end of a test and suddenly coming upon a question miles above the level you've studied for, which is worth a fifth of your grade in that subject.

The Dresden Files:
Nicodemus does this in Death Masks. After hearing a minor character state "There's nothing that anyone can do to hurt me anymore," Nick blows down the wall, steps through with his two Mooks and shadow, and declares "No matter how many times I hear that, it's always a fresh challenge."
Harry himself gets in on this in White Night. Afer hearing the White Court convene, one vamp states "Who is going to call us to task [for our crimes]?" Harry takes this as his cue to blast the door, send in a rolling red carpet of flames, and challenge the vamp to a duel right then and there to the death. Quoth Harry, "Damn, there's nothing like a good entrance."
Speaking of the White Court, Lara's entrance with her sisters in Turn Coat qualify. They show up in a helicopter, which is no big deal. But they simply jump out without zip-lines, and casually walk up to the assembled White Council forces. In heels. Harry laments that if there were any justice in the world, it would have gone in slow-motion so he could have had a subjective eternity to watch.
Arguably, Harry's entrance to the climactic battle of Dead Beat, as seen by the Wardens and the Kemmlerites. It's not too much to brag about, it's just, you know... the dinosaur.
Harry does this in Storm Front to Marcone, blowing down the door. Marcone has remembered this and now puts flimsy doors at all dramatic entry points. All strategic entrance points have doors of solid steel.
Sigrun Gard and her habit of showing up in helicopters playing Ride of the Valkyries at top volume.
Again, in Cold Days, when Harry arrives at the Island with The Wild Hunt in tow. Anyone and anything on those barges had to be crapping their metaphorical pants.

Supernatural:
Castiel's first scene. All the lights start flickering and bursting, the roof starts rattling, and the barn door breaks open, and Castiel casually strolls in amidst the howling wind and sparks, paying no attention as he walks through every type of ward Dean and Bobby could think of while being shot with a range of weapons and showing no sign of being wounded.
Gabriel's opening move against Lucifer and his Pre-Asskicking One-Liner, seen here.
Death is an interesting case. On one hand, his entrance is nothing special in of itself, but manages to make a considerable impression with the incredibly appropriate music, the Cool Car, and the inadvertent Touch of Death (no pun intended). Subverted? Zigzagged?

An understated one in Cowboy Bebop — when one-off character Doohan first enters frame, you can instantly tell what kind of person he is by the fact that he's on fire and apparently doesn't even care enough to put it out.

Power Rangers:
Power Rangers Samurai: In "The Master Returns", Xandred arrives on Earth in style. Rocks pile together into his shape to create a gate for him. The sky darkens as he proclaims "Day shall become night as I escape from the Netherworld to face my enemies!". Everyone present from the Rangers to even Serrator goes Oh, Crap!. Xandred follows up on this by sending Serrator running and beating the living crap out of the Rangers while drying out.
Prior to this, Antonio deliberately tries to engineer a dramatic entrance in his debut episode. He even runs away from the other Rangers when they wind up tracking him down ahead of time, just so he can come back and show off at an opportune Big Dang Hero moment.
Some of the classic villains got some decent entrances too. Lord Zedd, Master Vile, and King Mondo come to mind. Mondo notably made his entrance with Quadrafighters attacking Rita and Zedd's palace, sending them running to another galaxy despite them having fought the Power Rangers for three years.

In Tosca, Baron Scarpia makes one of grand opera's baddest of bad-ass entrances. He and his secret police crash an enormous chorus number in mid-note, which swerves like a skipped record needle into the bad guy's signature theme. A chorus of happy children, to be precise. Really putting bad in bad-ass.note Singer/producer/director Tito Gobbi is so associated with Scarpia — he played him over 900 times — that he actually led off his autobiography with those signature chords, and says that entrance is one of the finest moments in all opera.

Inuyasha: Sesshoumaru is fond of these. If there's a sudden explosion slamming into the earth from the sky involving flashing lighting, shaking ground and an overload of raw power, it's usually Sesshoumaru landing in a manner that ensures everyone pays attention. He even brought a life-or-death battle between Inuyasha's group and Mouryoumaru to a stop when everyone on both sides turned to give his entrance their full attention.

The Adventures of Dr. McNinja:
Dr. McNinja makes a pretty good entrance here, mainly as a Shout-Out to Batman. Although, his entrance is rendered rather moot when you take into account that the gang he dropped in on had nothing at all to do with the plot.
Chris Hastings has claimed that he could do a whole book on the entrances and exits of King Radical.

Making Money lampshades and mocks this trope with Pucci Lavish and her attempt to steal Moist's thunder at the bank. Moist notes to himself that she intended to majestically "sweep" in, (and had the henchmen, dogs on leashes, dress and arrogance to make a good show of it,) but she misjudged how densely packed the crowd was, meaning her flunkies couldn't clear a path for her fast enough and so she just got stuck in the crowd along with everyone else.

An In-Universe employee training video has Flintheart Glomgold kicking down a wall and welcoming all concerned to Glomgold Industries where he barely even tries to hide what a scoundrel he is before concluding that employees are their greatest treasure. (Which he does not actually believe.)
The second season introduces Zan Owlson, the acting CEO of the company since he went missing during the "Shadow War" incident. She taps on the silhouette where Glomgold used to be and awkwardly works her way through the empty space before politely introducing herself.

The Order of the Stick:
Elan at various points. Two points that come to mind are when he bursts through the window to rescue Haley from Nale (which is slightly dampened by Thog following while dressed like a leprechaun), and doing the same when confronting Kubota over his plan to dethrone Hinjo and kill the Kato family. The latter is hilariously lampshaded, as Therkla has left the door open for Elan, so Elan has to go around and find a good window to jump through.
Also, Vaarsuvius, when they attacks Xykon. V just teleports in, which is normally no biggie. But since the whole area is covered in epic-level magic to prevent teleportation, it is somewhat of a big deal. Between that and the loud boom V makes when entering, the elf has everyone's immediate and rapt attention.

In Dark Souls II's Crown of the Ivory King Downloadable Content, your final battle in the Old Chaos sounds little more than clearing wave after wave of Elite Mooks, with up to four NPC allies and two phantom summons at your disposal. A few minutes into the fight, however, a thundering noise will be heard, and two massive pillars rise from nothingness to form a Hellgate larger than the ones spawning the mooks. From the flaming gate, you can make out a silhouette coming out of it with a Menacing Stroll: it's the titular Ivory King, and his hellish Leitmotif starts blaring once he starts coming out of the portal, initiating the true phase of his Optional Boss fight.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory features a double subversion at the end of Act 1 when it's time for the tour of Willy Wonka's factory to begin. The stage-spanning factory gates slowly open as the crowd sings his name, but the little door beyond opens to reveal an anxious Wonka dressed in a black overcoat pleading in an old, quavering voice for someone to help him walk down a flight of steps. Then he changes his mind and declares he'll do it himself, almost topples over with that first step — then strikes a pose that causes the coat to vanish, revealing his wildly colorful suit, able body, and Large Ham personality. Cue the Showstopper.

The Italian Disney Ducks Comic Universe story "Uncle Scrooge and the Last Adventure" has the grand visir of the Maharajah of Howduyustan enter Duckburg with an immense parade complete with elephants. Made even grander when you find out it was actually Scrooge McDuck and Jubal Pomp in disguise, making such an entrance as part of the plan to retake Killmotor Hill and Scrooge's industries from Glomgold and Rockerduck. It works like a charm.

But they simply jump out without zip-lines, and casually walk up to the assembled White Council forces. In heels. Harry laments that if there were any justice in the world, it would have gone in slow-motion so he could have had a subjective eternity to watch.

In Stargate SG-1, Thor is often fond of these. Even when doing something minor such as beaming down, he often makes a point to do so whilst sitting comfortably in his Cool Chair, simply because he can.

In Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, Eris shows up after Sinbad's execution and Heroic Sacrifice. Said entrance involved the clouds spiraling into a tornado, creating a water sprout, and Eris emerging from the mist in a 50-foot version of herself. And the spectators were scared shitless.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019): Ghidorah's awakening has him emerging from a pit filled with howling wind, fog and lightning-flashes surrounded by fiery-looking light, while thunder crashes and lightning flashes in the sky in Antarctica. There's also his arrival in Boston where he's heralded by his ominous unnatural storm billowing lightning-filled mist between the buildings, and him shaking Fenway Park when he himself physically appears.

Takarazuka Revue has him brandishing a sword, dressed in armor, with a wing as part of his costume. The 2019 concert in Vienna has him entering the frame with two of his angels on either side, making it look like he's dressed in white with huge black wings.

Red River (1995) has Ilbani invoke this at one point. After finding Yuri, who had been kidnapped by Urhi during the latest of Queen Nakia's plans, he tells Kail to go to the big spring outside the palace and pray for her return. Kail is sceptical, since he knows that Nakia is responsible, but does so on Ilbani's insistence. He and the citizens of Hattusa stare as the spring begins to bubble, and out bursts Yuri.

In Runescape, one quest has you rescue a gnome who has been a prisoner for about 200 years. After you rescue the guy, the gnome you've been escorting throughout the quest calls in air support for a quick ride out. Everyone present discusses landing in the Gnome Tree Village, even though the local king has declared that no gnome gliders may be used over the village. The pilot uses this trope as part of his rationale for going to the Gnome Tree Village on a glider anyway.

Rome. Invoked in the first episode when Atia intercepts a fine White Stallion meant for Pompeii and has her son Octavian take it all the way to Gaul to present to Julius Caesar so as to impress him. Octavian is kidnapped and the horse stolen by the same brigands who stole Caesar's eagle standard. Vorenus and Pullo then rescue Octavian and the three of them go riding into Caesar's camp, holding the standard aloft while being cheered by the legionnaires, so his entrance was even more impressive than expected.

Sailor Venus' debut in the main Sailor Moon manga consists of her saving Sailor Moon from Zoisite by cutting him into pieces with a Precision-Guided Boomerang, and then appearing on a rooftop smiling.
In the 90's series she may not have cut Zoicite to pieces, but it was still rather nice. Zoicite was giving the Senshi and Tuxedo Kamen a "The Reason You Suck" Speech as he had the girls trapped and Kamen was seriously wounded... but then Venus shut him up, told the heroes to not give up, undid the girls' trap with her Crescent Beam, and then jumped in to join the group.

Godzilla:
Terror of Mechagodzilla has Titanosaurus going on a rampage in one scene. The camera pans over to a separate set of buildings as a familiar, spiny silhouette appears. Titanosaurus is shown again as he is promptly blasted by a blue Breath Weapon. We then go back to that silhouette as the lighting increases to reveal Godzilla.
Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II has a scene where a team of scientists investigating an irradiated island are suddenly attacked by Rodan. Their retreat brings them to a cliff overlooking the coast, where they see the ocean violently bubbling up. As Rodan catches up, a blue beam shoots from the bubbling area and hits the giant pterosaur. Godzilla himself emerges from the ocean and goes into battle with Rodan.
In Godzilla (2014), a MUTO is introduced demolishing a Honolulu airport. At one point, it causes a long chain reaction of exploding aircraft. The last explosion dissipates, revealing a Giant Foot of Stomping that manages to dwarf the entire MUTO. We then get a sweeping shot of Godzilla's whole body as he roars. It's also done in San Francisco just when he's about to face off against the female MUTO.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019): Ghidorah's awakening has him emerging from a pit filled with howling wind, fog and lightning-flashes surrounded by fiery-looking light, while thunder crashes and lightning flashes in the sky in Antarctica. There's also his arrival in Boston where he's heralded by his ominous unnatural storm billowing lightning-filled mist between the buildings, and him shaking Fenway Park when he himself physically appears.

Cuda takes him out after the knights are alerted, and then Lycan suggests that they should have came up with a plan to beat Cuda rather than make an awesome introduction.

Referenced in Independence Day. "You know me." "Yeah, I know, you always like to make a big entrance." The first case was pretty mild; Steven Hiller just stole a helicopter to rescue his fiancee and the other survivors of the alien invasion. The second case, where Hiller and David Levinson crash-landed in the desert after blowing up the main alien ship causing streaks of burning rubble? That's a big entrance.

After making sure that he is the last of the guests to arrive, he delays until the choir starts singing "I Vow to Thee My Country" before striding into the abbey. Even though he's Leader of the Opposition at the time, everyone rises for Churchill despite not doing so earlier for the current Prime Minister Clement Attlee.

In Game of Thrones, practically every single entrance that involves Daenerys' three dragons is treated as this, largely because they are just so damned awe-inspiring and destructive every time they show up in battle or even just on-screen.
House of the Dragon: A dying King Viserys Targaryen's entrance into the throne room in the eigth episode of Season 1. Just as the matter seems hopeless for Rhaenyra and her children, the doors are unexpectedly thrown open, and the King is announced. The fact that he's scarred with a half-masked face, bent, and hobbling all the way to the throne only adds to the drama and anticipation. Triumphant and poignant music plays as he hobbles to the throne.

Wagner's Die Walküre features one of the most dramatic entrances ever seen on a stage: The Ride of the Valkyries. Maiden goddesses riding chargers and singing about battle practically barge onto the stage (in the best way possible) to the sound of Wagner's most universally recognizable and bombastic piece.

Mary Poppins demonstrates a knack for this. To name but one example, her first-ever appearance involves the East Wind blowing her through the Banks family's gate and onto their doorstep.

Kelson and Dhugal in The Quest for Saint Camber were thought to be dead after a mountain trail washed out beneath them. When they return to Gwynedd's capital Rhemuth, they arrive with their entourage via Transfer Portal (which permits instantaneous travel) in the sacristy of the cathedral on Easter Sunday morning no less.

Blood and Thunder: Colonel Castillan tells an aide not to worry, as the commander of the awaited reinforcements likes to make an entrance. Unfortunately, while his armored convoy does show up dramatically cresting a ridge, the commander's head is seen on a spike of the leading tank, as it's been hijacked by the orks.

In Fate/Extella Link, Charlie actively tries to come up with these as part of his obsession with the Rule of Cool. In one conversation, Astolfo recommends Charlie drop from the sky and land on one knee and fist like a superhero. Charlie initially points out how dangerous that is, as he could easily hurt his hip or stab himself with his sword. Astolfo shoots back that coolness is more important than safety, which convinces Charlie to start jumping off buildings to practice, prompting Astolfo to mutter that he didn't think Charlie would actually do it.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice: Doomsday sends a massive energy blast at Batman, only for it to be stopped by something. The blast dies down, and we see what got in the way... a certain Amazonian princess, bracelets crossed in front of her, the glow of the heat from the blast beginning to fade as she lowers them, revealing a look of grim determination on her face, and that music strikes up. Wonder Woman couldn't have possibly had a cooler cinematic debut. She then clangs her bracelets together, making a shockwave that drives the previously unscratchable monster back!

House of the Dragon: A dying King Viserys Targaryen's entrance into the throne room in the eigth episode of Season 1. Just as the matter seems hopeless for Rhaenyra and her children, the doors are unexpectedly thrown open, and the King is announced. The fact that he's scarred with a half-masked face, bent, and hobbling all the way to the throne only adds to the drama and anticipation. Triumphant and poignant music plays as he hobbles to the throne.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
Princess Luna's entrance in "Luna Eclipsed". She comes in on a Batmobile-looking chariot drawn by pegasi with wing armor and helmet crests that look like bat wings, wearing a Black Cloak and accompanied by Dramatic Thunder. She does an awesome drop from the chariot and dramatically flips the hood off her head. Finally, her cloak dissolves into bats. Because of this, many Bronies now refer to her as "Princess Luna, Princess of F-ING METAL!!!"
In "The Mane Attraction", pony pop star Countess Coloratura shows up on a palanquin carried by four backup dancer stallions, on a throne adorned with her cutie mark inside a gem-shaped structure that opens like a flower, with appropriate light show and background music. Subtle.
"Between Dark and Dawn": During the Cold Open, Princess Celestia and Luna make their appearance by loudly announcing their presence, the sun right behind them. Later, they enter the Cake's bakery by smashing through the door.

Doctor Who:
One of the Fourth Doctor's particular quirks is that he would never enter a room the same way twice. Between this and how much of a Large Ham and Attention Whore this incarnation of him was, this makes practically every time his character went through a door an example of this trope. Sometimes he would actually leave and come in again if people didn't react sufficiently to his arrival. Tom Baker often explains about this that he is extremely bad at coming through doors convincingly in a way that isn't funny even in real life.
The Eleventh Doctor With some frequency, notably through a chimney in "The Christmas Carol":
The Tenth Doctor, in "The Girl in the Fireplace", enters by crashing through a mirror, on horseback, into a crowded ballroom. Just in time to save the day.
""Rise of the Cybermen": Lumic's Cybermen crash Alt-Jackie Tyler's birthday party by smashing their way in through the windows, prompting their creator to make an atrocious pun about it.
"The End of Time": Ten barges in on Rassilon and the Master by throwing himself out of a low-flying spaceship and falling hundreds of feet, smashing through a skylight, then falling another fifty feet to the (marble) floor. He spends most of the conflict on the floor, crippled with pain.
"The Day of the Doctor": The three Doctors (War, Ten, Eleven) enter the Black Archive by sonicking a Dalek through the glass of the Gallifrey Falls 3D painting.
In "The Magician's Apprentice", Twelve carries on this fine tradition, when he rolls into a medieval arena on a tank, playing the electric guitar.
Twelve does this again in "The Lie of the Land" when escaping from a prison ship. Bill comments that they could have gone for the stealthy approach, but "the Doctor being the Doctor", he decides to ram the entire ship into the dock while standing on the front and cackling like a maniac.

A Gem in the Rough: The Crystal Gems tend to do this quite a bit. Their most notable entrance would be at the end of "The Seastone Cage": Steven and the Straw Hats are captured by Crocodile and Sanji has just been knocked out by Mr. 3. Just when Crocodile is confident that nothing will stand in his way, Mr. 3 reveals that he understands the price of what failure in Baroque Works means and has brought partners who are most eager to talk to him. With that, the ceiling came crashing down and said partners adopted a battle stance, ready to take on the Shishibukai.

General Grievous from Star Wars: Clone Wars. His first appearance (which, incidentally, was his Real Life first appearance in any Star Wars media) involves his droid army ambushing and surrounding a group of Jedi. From off-screen, Grievous tells the droids to stop attacking, and then calls out to the Jedi, urging them to make peace with the Force and promising to personally grant them a warrior's death. One of the Jedi panics and charges out to attack, and Grievous finally shows himself by jumping on the Jedi's back, killing him instantly.

Aladdin gets an extended Big Entrance with the "Prince Ali" music number. Elephants, dancers, the Genie's magic, and practically kicking the 200-foot door down (and into Jafar's face).

In Godzilla (2014), a MUTO is introduced demolishing a Honolulu airport. At one point, it causes a long chain reaction of exploding aircraft. The last explosion dissipates, revealing a Giant Foot of Stomping that manages to dwarf the entire MUTO. We then get a sweeping shot of Godzilla's whole body as he roars. It's also done in San Francisco just when he's about to face off against the female MUTO.

The Mountain and the Wolf:
The Wolf's very first entrance has the approach of loud thudding sounds before he emerges to announce that he's going to fight the Mountain (an unhappy-looking Oberyn confirming this). Later chapters see his longship tear out of the Warp and plowing into the midst of an enemy army/along side an enemy ship, discharging screaming Norscan berserkers while he insults and fights the commander.
When Daenerys returns to King's Landing, she swoops around the citadel a few times before landing in the throne room, and announcing her position as Queen of the Seven Kingdoms before anyone can say a word.

In the second episode of G Gundam Domon Kasshu summons the Shining Gundam by calling out to it so loudly that Tomokazu Seki and/or Mark Gatha must have shattered some glass in the booth delivering the line, but that's not even the best of it oh no, the Shining Gundam then explodes on to the scene from within the Statue of Liberty, letting the viewer know that NOTHING is sacred.

The climax of the "This Is Halloween" number in The Nightmare Before Christmas sees a scarecrow set itself on fire and jump into a well. However, when the scarecrow rises, we see it wasn’t a scarecrow at all. It was actually Jack Skellington, whom the song had been hyping up for the past minute, making quite an entrance to the adoration of his people.

The Hobbit: The dragon Smaug's arrival at Dale and the Lonely Mountain was heralded by "a noise like a hurricane" and a hot gale which made pines creak and crack, before he started burning Dale.

Oda Nobunaga is introduced to Masamune and Yukimura by holding at gun point the cowardly Yoshimoto on top of a cliff, with dark clouds swirling in the sky and Hiroyuki Sawano's soundtrack blasting the scenery to bits with Gratuitous German. When you're looking for the advent of an Obviously Evil villain, look no further.

Miss Piggy in The Muppets is fond of these:
Her arrival at the farmhouse in A Muppet Family Christmas is on a dog sled driven by Doc dressed as a Mountie. Doc himself is at a loss to explain where any of this came from. (The last time we checked in on Piggy, she was trying to get her car out of a ditch.) Kermit just says that Piggy always knows how to make an entrance.
In Muppet Treasure Island, her appearance as "Benjamina Gunn" is heralded by native drums, dancers, chanting statues, and a real elephant, before she emerges in slow motion from a floral howdah. "BOOM-Shakalaka!"
Both of these are then immediately undercut by her falling over: in Family Christmas she slips on the Running Gag icy patch, and in Treasure Island she trips over her pet anteater, Flaubert.
