This time it was in the movie Napolean Dynamite. Appropriately enough, it
was when he's in the thrift store looking at crap just before finding the
D-Kwon dance tape. It's in the lower right-hand part of the screen (when
he finds the sai), with half of it being off-screen in the TV edited
version (if you have a cinema TV I'm sure you can see the whole thing)
but you can still tell it's a TRS-80 M4 if you know what you're looking
at.
This movie is a must see for anyone that loves off-the-wall comedies and
either was or had a friend growing up that was a complete dork. Ebert
gave it a thumbs down. Either he took the movie personally or he just
didn't get it. The movie is hilarious.
