Atlanta had an episode that 'ironically' had dodge commercials in it. 3 of them. It didn't add anything to the episode, the social commentary of a black man who can't afford pants but can afford gas money was unnecessary, and glover probably got a ton of money for the ads in the episode.

The shows not terrible, but the format of that episode took away from the social commentary between the characters.

are you a legitimate retard? because its not product placement, its a bit, about product placement.

It's lampooning movies that do this. Basically pointing out product placement like we are in this thread. Love that scene though.

It was a clever way to use product placement so they don't feel like complete sell outs. No doubt they got paid to plug all those products.
>>
>>80396111
I don't mean to blow your tiny mind, but did it occur to you that it might be both?

They are still placing a product you nit wit it has nothing to do with being coy look up the definition

this wins, and cannot be defeated

Anyone else here not mind product placement? In several instances I think it makes the movie more realistic and believable.

Like when a character actually googles something instead of using genericsearchengine.com

or they drink from an actual bud light bottle or something.

Transformers Age of Extinction is the most blatant but the worst is Mac and Me

is this the best product placement?
>>
>>80397994
It's neat because it adds a feeling of reality to it. It doesn't feel like the movie stopping to go 'BUY COCA-COLA!', it feels like an ad that happened to be on at the time.
>>
What I've never understood is why they have to "clear" stuff to use them in films. It's like if a character is drinking a soda, they either have to make it a fake brand; they have to get Coca Cola's permission to use a Coke; or Coca Cola pays them a bunch of money to have them drink Coke.

Like, why would they need permission? Would Coca Cola really sue them for using a Coke? Could they even? It just makes no sense to me.
>>
>>80398598
I think its far more complex than that, I'm speaking knowing how ignorant I am about the matter, like copyright fair use and such, It's never that easy
>>
>>80398722

I don't know. I mean, it's not like McDonald's approved Supersize Me. It just seems bizarre that they can't / won't use products without getting either permission or payment.
>>
>>80398496
No it's fucking not, it's just brand recongnition on things that coke usually do.
If it where a Pepsi ad it wouldn't look the same and you know it.
>>
Fast and the furious with the constant Corona references.
>>
>>80400058
What part of what I said is incompatible with that? I'm not saying it's not product placement, just that it's being used in a way that lends a sense of realism rather than subtracting, like most placement. It helps that it's just there, rather than Harrison Ford going "Gee, I sure love Coca-Cola after a day of hunting replicants! Nothing beats it ice cold!".
>>80398598
>>80398864
Part of this is that a lot of companies have feelers in studios and pay to help subisdise things like prop rental. If you try to use a brand in a way they don't like, you might suddenly find yourself paying a hell of a lot more for the 30 rental cars you needed for a shoot, for instance.

Pic related happened in the last season of House MD. She actually utters these words, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with the plot.
