Movies that reference or feature Prince?

What movies reference Prince; either through dialogue or visuals?

Also, what movies feature Prince music in which he did not contribute "new" music?

Off the top of my head for references to him:

"Shaun of the Dead"
"Fargo"
"Scary Movie"
"Pretty Woman"


More ?????



Movies featuring his music:

"Riskly Business"
"Last Boy Scout"
"Private School" (for "Nasty Girl")

More ???

Girl 6 had about 20 Prince songs

How Stella Got Her Groove Back featured Head

Rebecca DeMorena(or whatever her name is) sang Little Red Corvette in The Sluggers Wife

Striptease featured If I Was Your Girlfriend

Delerious (John Candy and Emma Samms) featured the song of the same title

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back featured Morris Day and the Time.Director Kevin Smith originally wanted to use TMBGITW but wasn't allowed to.

Has anyone ever seen or heard of a TV show called "Mystery Science Theater 3000"? 3 characters would watch shitty movies and rip on them and add dialogue. Many episodes are full of Prince references. The episode "Agent For H.A.R.M" has tons of them because the main character resembles Prince.
