In any case, nuclear weapons in popular culture is a huge and fascinating sociological topic, for those of us old enough to remember the Cold War and to try to get across what it felt like to those who aren't. It still amazes me when I meet mature adults with kids who don't remember the Cold War and just don't understand WTF I'm talking about.
That's of course the hopeful point of the "In popular culture" section for that article. But does it currently accomplish that? I think not -- it is mostly a list of Hollywood movies. That's sort of my point: cultural impacts are important, but a list of movies or times something is used in video games is not a real metric of cultural impact and doesn't tell you anything new.
See [[philosopher's stone]] for another excellent example of something which COULD have an interesting section on how and why it is used in popular culture (notions of immortality, alchemy, mystery, secrecy!), but instead has a list of Japanese cartoons and video games which in some minor way feature something called a philosopher's stone.
