In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', the [[Sergeant Guy Cannon]] is a Banzai Bill Cannon used in the battle against the [[Elite Trio]]. [[Sergeant Guy]] uses it in one of his attacks, taking two full turns to have it prepared. In the first turn, the Banzai Bill is manually loaded into the cannon by a few [[Shy Guy]]s. On the second turn, it gets launched.

While actual Banzai Bill Cannons do not really appear in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', it is revealed near the end, during [[Princess Peach]] and Bowser's wedding, that the volcano-like structure forming the centerpiece of Bowser's Castle also doubles as a missile silo used to launch the Bomber Bill that would destroy the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] after the wedding is thwarted.
