I think about this concept once in a while. Obvious brand placement all over the place. A character's name is a god damn car.
This movie I enjoyed the first time I watched. Second time I watched with a different group of friends and noticed the heavy brand force feeding much more.
>REDBULL, DUCATI, FUCKING COSTCO
Any other good examples? I'm not usually a /tv/ person, I've hardly watched any movies in the past couple years.

I liked it, too. I think I saw it after my experience with Yes Man, and that made me more observant to the ads. It's still a pretty good movie.

I think they hit the post apocalyptic feel very well.
Only wish there'd been some other media to establish the story, wonder what other shit Eli went through.

You must be really autistic if you think character's names are product placement. I hope you never visit a strip club, you'd kill yourself first time Mercedes flashes her tits in front of you.

Not OP but I think Denzel is wearing Beats headphones in the movie.

And uses an iPod.

so now anytime someone is shown using any product ever it's product placement and not just that character using that product?

I, Robot is probably the best sneaker commercial I have ever watched.
>>86756211
that is super rare and pretty much only in true kino like the Sopranos.
No movie out of modern hollywood with a brand name product in it has that particular brand name by accident.
>>86756211
The iPod is understandable since it's the most popular portable music player of all time but the Beats headphone thing is pretty egregious when you watch the movie.

>damn I'm in the future and sheeit but at least I still got my converses and sony stereo system
Everyone should just use fake made-up brands. Sure it will break immersion and won't look realistic, but at least people will stop bitching about product placement.

it was really weird to see what I think was an iPod in baby driver (I don't know what an iPod looks like) because no one has iPods anymore

Wow its as if lthose things exists in real if
>>86756299
they can use brands without it being product placement. They just don't

I was about to call you underage but you're probably like 19 and I just realized the iPhone came out 10 years ago. I actually still use an iPod Shuffle for running and working out.

>"Got tons of it at Costco. You see, I've got an exclusive membership card. And with that card, I get access to the whole place. I can buy large quantities of anything at discount prices."
Allison:
>"Can't anyone get one of those cards?"
Norman:
>"No, don't think so. But I can talk to someone, if you'd like."
Carl:
>"Yeah, put in a good word for us. That would be great."

He went though a lot of eerie techno music. Bought to you by the new Apple iPod.

Seriously, they had a fucking SAMSUNG research lab for genetics. One of the shittiest manufacturers with the worst software on android phones.
That's like nintendo going into cancer research using their name and mario logo.
