Reality Bites (1993) The gang is obsessed with pizza when they are stoned, and includes a montage of people saying that pizza is the answer to life
Feds (1988) Rebecca De Mornay wins a Pizza-Eating contest against some Fat guy.

Pizzmat:
Also include Spike Lee's controversial 1989 movie, "Do The Right Thing". The movie's story mostly centers around a pizza place, but in the end, is burned down.

Don't forget The 'Burbs! Corey Feldman: "You can't leave now! This is the best part! I just called the pizza dude!" and when said "pizza dude" arrives, his van crashes, and several pizza boxes fall out of the van.
and Home Alone when Buzz eats Kevin's cheese pizza...and later on in the movie when Kevin scares the pizza delivery guy with the "Angels With Filthy Souls" audio.
and Goonies! when Jake and Francis Fratelli fight over the pepperoni pizza...and at the end of the movie, Chunk's family give him a Domino's Pizza

It might be a tenuous link but what about ET? The guys all sent out for pizza and this ends up on the floor when Elliot gets scared by ET. ET then eats it - first extra terrestrial to eat a pizza??
