I actually didn't mind all the Apple shots.
If they had only used PCs I would have completely discredited the entire movie and it would have sent the public perception about Global Warming back to 1960 and people would have started to snort Freon again.

yeah, I don't even pay attention to that stuff anymore. My wife does that for a living, I know what is intentional and what is circumstance.

it's like people thinking that trump and rosie o donnell actually have beef with each other.

I used to notice it all the time on CSI morilla but I think I've just grown immune to it in the past few years. I don't even notice anymore.

Apple morilla. All the computers they used to use were Macs. That and notice any helicopter shot. 60% of the hotels have different names. Only a few are the real ones. Those hotels dish out the big bucks for placement.

Bush is on the Board of Directors of Slim Jim.

I am aware of that. My point is everytime somone does something in a shot with a product doesnt constitute product placement. It's just daily f-in life.

Ahhhh, I will have to look for that hotel name thing. Thats so f-ed how those things work.

Oh no I'm totally with ya on this morilla. Hope you didn't take what I said the wrong way.
Also if when in the holding cell being interrogated if they handed the guy a Fanta I'd be like "BULLSHIT!" cause that would be 100% product placement just for placement. haha.

na kona, I was talkin to Mimio on that one.
- k0na_an0k0
ah... sorry. Gotcha morilla.
- histwinsiste0
if it's not product placement, it's terrible film making. they showed him working on that mac program like five times.

*What do you think of it? -whether you like Al Gore or not...*isn't it much more interesting to hear what small things you can do about the problem in this business?
i'm working for a big international artist that sells a lot of cd's & dvd's and i want to try to convince him to print the new releases on digipack that are recyclable rather then plastic jewelcases.
but there must be much more small things we can do as designers... any ideas?
