Shameless Plugs In Music & Movies
« on: March 14, 2004, 11:13:09 PM »
what are some of the shameless plugs for a product you guys have heard out of music and movies?

LL Cool J from "Father":

"thats just the tip of the ice berg, look, its too long for a song, but perfect for a book, (book repeats fading out)"

kinda funny that his biggest single from the album happened to say that just before he released his autobiography

my favorite one of all time is this and it still makes me wanna shoot vin diesel for ever saying this (even though i like his movies)

from "The Fast & The Furious":

"You can have any brew you want...as long as its a corona"

Some of the worst plugs were in that movie "SWAT". First there was the close up on a can of Dr Pepper, which the guy picked up and then said something like "I know i'm not supposed to have it but that right there really hits the spot". Then about 20 minutes later the same thing happens with the same dude, this time with a bag of Mcdonalds. I think there was also another Dr Pepper close up later in the film as well.

Another HBO show that always uses product placement is "The Wire". I often that soda brand Slice, probably at least once in each episode. Although I don't think it does much for advertising, last time I can remember a big focus on the drink someone had left it near a murder scene where a cop was shot.
