It still references the movie, and a strict reading of the rules would 
put it there... is there any reason why it shouldn't be on the movie 
list? it's not "anything that references the books does not belong on 
the movie list" it's "anything that references the movies does belong 
on the movie list". I got the impression from the rules that this list 
is supposed to progress as nearly as possible to as if the movies had 
never been made.
