Re:Stupid Product Placements
[quote=”YOWAYYO”]SG Atlantis- the ep titled “Home”
While Sheppard was at his house with Teyla, they decided to crack open a coupla brews- Coors original (gold label.) Teyla even did the classic “bottoms up” as she stood chugging her beer with the label conveniently toward the camera.

The funny thing about that is that in SG1 Season Two, O’Neill at the start of one episode is seen taking a case of Heineken Beer (not Coors) into his house. The scene opens with a slow shot of the Heineken sitting on the seat of his vehicle.
Whatever, whether i drink or not I don’t like product placement.
It detracts from the film and is invasive and crazymaking for people.
…
I can see the future here for everyone in daily life and it is not pleasant… Product placement on every medium personlly tailored to each of us. Radios calling out our names, electronic billboards changing to our names coded by our identity cards and targeting our marketing profiles kept in corporate databases.
Edit: what was the movie that showed this at an airport with the protagaonist being deluged by holograms? Total Recall?
