Line 41:
* Mentioned in [[Planet Terror]] as having been found and killed by [[Bruce Willis]]' character.
* ''[[James Bond (film)|James Bond]]'': A [[Captain Ersatz]] version of Bin Laden turns up in ''The Living Daylights'' as one of the good guys. This was before [[The Great Politics Mess-Up]] when Bin Laden was one of our stalwart allies whose band of brave freedom fighters were nobly trying to get the evil Soviet occupiers out of their countries.
** That's actually a Hamid Karzai expy. And at no point in his life was Osama bin Laden ever an ally of the United States, even back when him and the US had a common enemy. Look up his pre-Gulf-War history before he even got into terrorism in the first place and was a (somewhat) prominent and respected citizen of Saudi Arabia, and you'll find a guy angrily ranting that Saudi Arabia didn't need the Americans' help for anything and should instead mobilize a 'holy army' to go stop Saddam's invasion all by themselves.
* The movie ''[[Osama]]'' -- the first film to come out of Afghanistan since the Taliban banned films in 1996--is actually not about ''that'' Osama. Well, not ''explicitly'' about him.
* The 2008 Morgan Spurlock documentary ''[[Where In The World Is Osama Bin Laden]]''.
