Hammock Rider

The new movie, The Other Guys, with Will Ferrell and Marky Mark prominently features the iPhone as well as the Toyota Prius. It works them in well though, pretty seamless.

I have two movies:

The Pod People.  There is a barn with a Pepsi logo on it.

Abraxxas, Guardian of the Universe.  There is a lot of Pepsi being pimped out.  There is a garage with some bottles are being dropped by Sucundas (I think that is how the name is spelled) and there is slow motion on the bottles breaking.  There there is a convenience store scene, nothing but Pepsi signs and products.  WOW.

You know companies used to pay farmers to used their barns as billboards, could have a coincidence.

Doggett

Casino Royale as a scene where Bond and Lynd discuss what brand of watch he's got on.
Yeah, I'm sure that was important to the plot !


Vesper Lynd: Oh, you are? I like this poker thing. And that makes perfect sense! Since MI6 looks for maladjusted young men, who give little thought to sacrificing others in order to protect queen and country. You know... former SAS types with easy smiles and expensive watches.

Vesper Lynd: Rolex?
James Bond: Omega.
Vesper Lynd: Beautiful. Now, having just met you, I wouldn't go as far as calling you a cold-hearted bastard...
