Butterfly effect in popular culture

The butterfly effect is the phenomenon in chaos theory whereby a minor change in circumstances can cause a large change in outcome. 
The butterfly metaphor was created by Ray Bradbury in influential 1952 story.
Apparently 10 years later meteorologist Edward Norton Lorenz chose this name to describe the meterological phenomena he discovered. Nowdays it describes the inherent unpredictable results of small changes in the initial conditions of certain physical systems. 
The concept was taken up by popular culture, and interpreted to mean that each event could be explained by some small cause, or that small events have a rippling effect that causes much larger events to take place.
Ray Bradbury's 1952 short story "A Sound of Thunder", which explores the concept of how the death of a butterfly in the past could have drastic changes in the future is a representation of the butterfly effect, and used as an example of how to consider chaos theory and the physics of time travel. The story was made into a film of the same name, an episode of the television series "Ray Bradbury Theater", and its influence can be seen in the film "The Terminator", the short story "Kamikaze Butterflies", and an episode of the television series "The Simpsons". "My Butterfly", an episode from the TV show "Scrubs", also features two separate timelines, each influenced by a butterfly. The Butterfly Effect was also mentioned in "The Amazing World Of Gumball" in which a butterfly is let out of a jar which causes a series of events leading to a tornado. 
In following years the story was translated into many languages and published around the world. Like some other good invented literary ideas, such as Sherlock Holmes or Catch-22 the idea has grown and nowdays is used as common well know expression.
Examples.
Also in 1952, John Steinbeck illustrates the butterfly effect in his best-selling novel "East of Eden": "The direction of a big act will warp history, but probably all acts do the same in their degree, down to a stone stepped over in the path or a breath caught at sight of a pretty girl or a fingernail nicked in the garden soil" (Chapter 4, paragraph 2).
The films "The Butterfly Effect" and "Havana" mischaracterize the butterfly effect in the typical fashion of its pop-culture understanding, according to writer Peter Dizikes, asserting that the butterfly effect can be calculated with certainty, which is the opposite of its meaning in chaos theory about the unpredictability of certain physical systems. Jeff Goldblum's character Dr. Ian Malcolm from the 1993 movie "Jurassic Park" attempts to explain chaos theory to Laura Dern's character, Dr. Ellie Sattler, specifically using the butterfly effect as an example. Terry Pratchett's novel "Interesting Times" tells of the magical "Quantum Weather Butterfly", who has the ability to manipulate weather patterns. The 2009 film "Mr. Nobody" also delves into the concept of smaller choices, that inevitably result in larger changes that alter a person's life.
In William Tenn's short story "Brooklyn Project", a tyrannical US Government brushes aside the warnings of scientists about the dangers of time travel and goes on with a planned experiment - with the result that minor changes to the prehistoric past cause Humanity to never have existed, its place taken by tentacled underwater intelligent creatures - who also have a tyrannical government which also insists on experimenting with time-travel.
The Indian films "Dasavathaaram, Super Deluxe and" Nannaku Prematho are mainly based on the concept of Butterfly effect.
In Nick Hancock and Chris England's 1997 book "What Didn't Happen Next: An Alternative History of Football" it is suggested that, had Gordon Banks been fit to play in the 1970 FIFA World Cup quarter-final, there would have been no Thatcherism and the post-war consensus would have continued indefinitely.
The 2015 video game "Until Dawn" features the butterfly effect as a central plot point, using the term to describe how the player's choices can drastically affect the outcome of the game's events.
The video game "Life Is Strange", also released in 2015, makes multiple references to the butterfly effect and also uses it to describe how the player's choices heavily affect the plot of the game.
Hip-hop artist Travis Scott mentions this phenomenon in his 2017 single "Butterfly Effect".
In "Captain Underpants and the Terrifying Return of Tippy Tinkletrousers", the Butterfly Effect is referred to as the Banana Cream Pie Paradox.
The 2020 - 2021 YouTube video miniseries "Explaining the Pandemic to my Past Self" by Julie Nolke incorporates the butterfly effect as a limitation on how much she can explain to her past self.
