Title: NES in Movies.  Can you name a few?

Thought this would be a fun topic.  So besides the obvious movie "the Wizard"   What others movies did our beloved Nintendo have a role in?

I'll start.

Ghostbusters II   -   Rick Moranis  says  "So you wanna play Boggle or Super Mario Brothers?"
 
They also use a modified NES Advantage controller to control the Statue of Liberty.

Not a movie, but im pretty sure it was the TV show Fresh Price in Bel Air. They also had a Genesis later on afaik.

On Back to the Future 2 they also show Roger Rabbit vg at a antiques store.  Hehe.

I saw a NES controller in the new horror movie Stay Alive, the movie wasn't too bad for its topic.

One was in Bethovan, along with the missuse of a NES Power Glove and Mario 3.

Damn, there was this obscure movie I saw not too long ago that had something NES in it and I laughed but I can't remember for the life of me the movie.

crappity smack, I remember now, Little Marines.  I strongly recommend this, it's one of the funniest GD movies you're ever going to see.

I'm watching this movie right now!  They're in the year 2015, in an old "retro 80s" restaurant.  It's the arcade Wild Gunman, not the NES.  Marty shoots all 4 guys on screen, and the two kids nearby say "you have to use your hands? What is it a baby toy?" and then run off. ;D

Cops and Robbersons was on today I caught the scene with Chevy Chase talking to his son about being a vampire. When the shot is on Chevy Chase you can see an NES in the background on a shelf accompanied by three or four NES game boxes.

In one of the Jimmy Neutron episodes (yes, I have seen some of these), they go camping and Jimmy has a NES that Sheen plays on a big screen. I don't think it shows what game though.
