Seriously, you don't need this, if people really care why all these cool
things are happening they can buy the books, that or you fill them in as you
go along using dialogue.

Have the first scene be a pretty standard movie gunfight/breaking in style
device (as above) except one of the opposing guards calls in an elemental or
something, action with guns as we know it with a twist - Shadowrun. The
crowd just gets competely blown away because they don't really understand
what's going on but it is very violent and very sexy and they can associate
with that.
