1989

    * The Dream Team features Michael Keaton, playing a pathological liar, pointing out the Trade Center, saying, "You see those two towers? World Trade Center. I was an architect working on them. First they just wanted to build one but I said, 'Hey, fellas, we're here - What the hell, let's throw another one up'. Turned out pretty well, didn't it?"
    * The World Trade Center can be seen in the opening credits of the comedy film, See No Evil, Hear No Evil.
    * Back to the Future II features a view across New York harbour of the WTC towers in 2015 on the cable TV station "The Scenery Channel".
    * Ghostbusters II Around the time in the film they had the mechanical Statue of Liberty walking across the city you can see the towers, along with a shot of the city with the towers at the end of the film. They are also the buildings from which Janosz (as the ghost-nanny) flies to kidnap Oscar.
    * In the beginning of the film Weekend at Bernie's where Andrew McCarthy and Jonathan Silverman are walking to work on a hot summer day, the twin towers are seen briefly in the background when a guy opens a water hydrant and is thrown to the sidewalk by the thrust of the water.
    * New York Stories - during all three segments. The Towers can be seen through the window of Nick Nolte's apartment. Later, Woody Allen's mother talks over the skyline.
    * When Harry Met Sally - after their drive from Chicago to New York.
    * Friday the 13th Part VIII - It could be seen when the main characters head towards Manhattan on a canoe.
