The most disgraceful product placement I have EVER seen...
Wow, seriously, I just saw this film and I am in total shock. This movie was bursting at the seems with absolutely shameful product placement throughout. Honestly, I really don't get how ANYONE could actually like this movie based on this fact.
*spoiler*
The part at the end with the whole "intel" chip inside Mimzy (an A.I. stuffed animal from eons ahead of our current time period, mind you) I just about threw up a little in my mouth when I saw that... I seriously just don't know what to say anymore about the current state Hollywood films are in... I never EVER could have imagined product placement becoming this f_cking prevalent in movies. We even have to sit through 15 mins of ads before a movie starts at the theater now (they are even starting to put the ads on DVDs for f__k sake!)
Why people, WHY do you all keep defending and supporting these travesties? Honestly, I really just don't get it. Are we really SO brainwashed that we now accept our movies as being 2 hour long commercials...? WTF! I mean what's next, mid movie "breaks" so they can show us full length ads? For god SAKE man!
