So far, we've watched Outbreak, Contagion, Snowpiercer, and Deep Impact.

I haven't watched 12 Monkeys in a while, that's a good suggestion. At the beginning of that movie, Bruce Willis' character stumbles into the former Wanamaker store (now Macy's, I think) in Philadelphia; you can see the organ on the upper floors in a few shots. It still gets played daily when the store is open, and has quite a history. Marcel Dupre premiered Widor's arrangement of his 6th Symphony for organ as Op. 42, Symphony for Organ and Orchestra, there--imagine a department store with an organ in it, plus a full orchestra. That will probably never happen again in the history of humanity.
