Cameron Barrett talks about The Great Unethical Advertising Beast, the encroachment of ads into what was formerly time for previews in videos and movies. Those don't bother me nearly as much as all of those ads in the movies, all the product placement that can get at least as annoying, and is much harder to fast forward over. I don't get to the movies much, but the Pepsi plugs in Antz were really jarring.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
