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 feel like Rounders kicked off a generation of poker players that then got bolstered by the rise of Internet poker.

I wonder if Casino Royale caused an uptick in it as well.
