Commodore 64 in the movies
While watching Police 'Academy 3: Back in Training' spotted that the control room is run using Commodore 64s. At one point, a monitor goes haywire, and Paper Boy appears, although it appears to be Paper Boy the arcade game, opposed to Paper Boy the Commodore 64 conversion. |

@LHS - I think the other episode with the "6502" had something to do with an f-ray.. I think the episode is called "Fry and the slurm factory".
I do recall the episode with the werewolf, but can't place a name on it.
I'm a huge fan of Futurama. I've all the episodes and movies and always get a laugh when I watch any of them. |

someone mentioned this topic a few months back on world of spectrum
I was gonna post a site, but seen it's already been mentioned..
it was more funny when they did fake OS screens etc.
or in the UK anyway.. furniture shops had fake plastic cbm monitors and TV's and c64's to show how furniture would look.. texas had them if I recall.

Nightmares and Dreamscapes featured a story of a brilliant brother that tried to fix the world. When he was young he got a C64. I think it may have shown him using it. I can't remember back to last month though. |

Not actually a movie, but one of the classic Sesame Street episodes had Grover using a Commodore 64 (or it might have been a Vic 20), educating children about a computer. :) Can't remember what episode it was, but it would have been around 1982 or later. |

Nice to see the use of C64 in movies and series.
Norwegian television program Lydverket showed SDI, and some bands using the editor. Glenn also features in the documentary. I was blown away when I saw this on TV 2008. My editor! LOL.

In the german comedy "Die Einsteiger" they show one or two c64 in a private semi pro electronic lab. In the backround basic listings scroll down on the famous light n dark blue screen. |
