Russ Darrow, an auto-dealer in Wisconsin, is giving away a free iPad with every Mazda purchase. The commercial in its entirety.

I recently pointed out the product placement mind-f#*k that is the upcoming film The Joneses. Upon closer look it’s clear that Audi’s R8 is a huge beneficiary of that product placement (below).

No surprise. Audi’s is using the R8 to create an entirely new image for its brand. While the conjoined rings have had no trouble appearing in films (The Transporter series is essentially a trilogy of Audi commercials), the R8 says something more about the the pedigree of the automakers entire line: Sexy.
And it’s starting to turn up everywhere. From it’s role as the ride of Iron Man Tony Stark a few years ago to 17 Again and Transformers: Rise of the Fallen last year, to its upcoming appearances in The Joneses and Date Night, it’s becoming the product placement hot rod of choice… the Macbook of cars. Below, a few of the auto’s latest roles:
Here’s Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl in the upcoming film Killers (June 2010). That sure looks like a Mac, no?

Oh, THERE YOU ARE SILLY!

In a look at 2010 Apple product placement, I noted that the first Toy Story 3 trailer passed on an Apple placement. But in the latest trailer it looks like Pixar has indeed placed a Mac. The logo is conveniently covered with stickies but one look at the upper left of the screen confirms it’s a Mac.

Who would have thought Law Abiding Citizen would torture us with gruesome murders and Apple product placement. From iPods to Macs, Apple was everywhere. And the nonsensical premise that city district attorneys use Macbook Pros was about par with the rest of the film’s plot

Chloe, a small thriller, is big on Apple. While the husband and wife clearly don’t see eye to eye on their marriage they do agree on computers.


Well, it was less of a question of “if” than one of “where.” The question now is how many Apple placements will the slick little number Valentine’s Day, due out tomorrow, boast?
