I think it was showing how big the big companies get, but I found it funnier when the cop car ran into the trailer, and they were all pre-made with burger and buns in the boxes already. To think McDonald’s probably paid a lot of money for the product placement. The Fifth Element however is one of my favorite movies of all time. Well put together, great acting, with the exception of Chris tucker, the whole screaming like a girl thing, and wearing a dress through me off, but at least it wasn’t orange. I loved the way that they would be having two separate scenes where the dialogue matched up between both of them, and it always concerned the same topic, it is something you don’t see done well in movies to often. Working at DISH Network, I had just gotten set up with my Blockbuster movie Pass, and I figured what would be the best movie to rent first, and of course The Fifth Element won hands down, I spent a couple days streaming some of the 3000 movies to my television and 2 days later, I got to enjoy a classic all over again.

Does it count as product placement if the logo has not been deliberately ‘placed’ there? Those HSBC logos are all over the airport in reality

Just to say that IMHO, it’s the best placement EVER for Lagavulin ^^

[...] beyond obvious, and has been ever since Blade Runner pioneered the practice, decades ago (for TDK, Atari, Pan Am, The Bell System and other future fatalities). Second, advertising itself is now beyond ubiquitous. Today, for example, I opened an urgent [...]

i don’t actually see why that’s a bad product placement… but what ever the reason, FedEx didn’t pay a penny for it.
