Which reminds me, Hollywood must crap itself in delight every time another NASCAR movie comes along. How else could they have an excuse to fill up two-thirds of the screen with a car hood bearing the Wonder Bread logo and slap product endorsements all over their actors? Talladega Nights is incontrovertible proof that the studios have all the integrity of a Bangkok streetwalker while the 7th Fleet’s in town. This isn’t a movie, it’s an infomercial, and one with an honest-to-god Applebee’s commercial that airs during the movie itself. Looks like Sony has finally figured out how to circumvent all that criticism about ads playing before the movie; simply play them after it’s started

Have you ever seen Blade: Trinity?

The chick's Ipod got more screen time than Snipes. The car commercial that they gracelessly threw into the middle of the movie stood out more than any of the fight scenes.

Give me a break. It is a spoof and a comedy. Don't you have a sense of humor?
