Reality is nibbling at the edges of this: you will only get the co-operation of the US military for your film if the US military looks good in the film; the character can use an Apple phone in a film, unless that character is the baddie, in which case they can't. |

Looking at this afresh, I think this actually could be very entertaining, make it a comedy. The inappropriate and awkward uses of product placement to save the day could be hilarious. "Hand me that roll of Scotch Brand tape (tm) now I'll attach this Bic razor, that guarantees a close shave to the ignitor wire... give me that refreshing Pepsi light!" "Why?" "It's low calorie refreshment that helps me relax through stressful times like trying to defuse a bomb." |

Here at Camp Teacup, we play a Bingo-card-type/drinking game while watching any ordinary show--comedy, drama, comedic cooking show, dramatic sports event, current and classic movies (NOT including the actual commercials, where's the fun in that?!)--we mark the square/take a drink anytime we catch product placement. |

When watching US sitcoms, we are drunk before the first commercial break. |
