The Blair Witch Project.
So what if you lost the map. Just whip out your phone with GPS.

plus the USSR doesn't exist anymore.
The real anwser to the original question is pretty much every movie, ever made that was set in its present day (or the past) has some plot element that was rendered obsolete by advancing technology.

Gone With the Wind
Rhet would have just called that bitch up or sent her a text to tell her he didn't give a damn.
ETA: Maybe Skype, so he could see the look on her face.

Any war movie ever made prior to the invention of modern weaponry.
I could whip William Wallace and all of his Scottish buddies' asses with one automatic weapon. As soon as they bent over to moon me, I would just plow them down.

Can we get back to Home Alone? Did someone here discover a plot hole? I know for a fact that the phones were down at the Mcallister home, it was reported to them as they left. Kevin did in fact order a pizza. There was no internet to order said pizza, a phone was the only way to do it. By that time had the phones come back with his mom already in the air to come home? Why didn't she call when she met up with Candy and the rest of his polka bums?

Die Hard. Many of the problems in the movie came as the result of having few ways to communicate with the police. Prop a cell phone in McClains hands earlier and the movie ends much quicker.

Lord of the Rings - Airplanes and Cars would have helped.
Maybe a facebook status update from Aargon to lure the Sauron's armies of Mordor out: "Hey Sauron, I just put your ring on Craig's list, meet me at Rivendale or I'm selling it to some token dwarf"

Not a movie, but Gilligan's Island would have been really short lived.
NOAA would have warned the boat not to go out. The Howell's or Ginger would have probably had a satellite phone. GPS tracking, etc...

As soon as I wrote that, I knew someone would have this response. I decided to leave it so you could have your fun.

Yeah, but Gilligan would have used the sat-phone to stir a pot of soup or some such crap.

So this can only work in movies that should or could have cellphones. i.e. futuristic tales. So couldn't Leia send Obi Wan a text: "Help me Obi Wan ur my holy hope"? This is better than a slow arse droid and his clutzy companion.
Everyone knows that Star Wars took place a long time ago in a galaxy far away.
Idiot.
