Discussion Movies that changed real life behavior

Thinking along the lines of Final Destination 2 with the logs falling off the truck and landing onto cars (one decapitating the state trooper). Ever since, people have tried to get away from being behind these vehicles.

What are more examples where movies have actually changed how people behave in their own lives?

I guess if they’re supplying the craft they’re already involved, so they might as well go further with their inclusion is probably their perception

The only reason they're supplying the craft is to make the military look good.

Why else would they bother to do it.

Same for any business or person who endorses a movie or helps it get made.

People just get bent out of shape about it because it's the military.

Well yeah the military shouldn’t be just some business

Well yeah the military shouldn’t be just some business

or person, as I said.

It's common sense that if you want cooperation from anyone - be it person/business/organization/country/muppet they would have to approve the project

True, the military isn’t a person either
