I actually disliked the blatant product placement in the film. (Just recently got the DVD and saw it for the first time today, bloody great flick.)
Since Sony owns MGM, which in effect owns the Bond license, expect 007 to become 00Sony as he uses his Vaio for intel, gets messages on his Sony Ericsson mobile phone, takes pictures with his CyberShot, and probably even gets GPS navigations from a PlayStation Portable. No longer will we see other brands featured in Bond films, which is a shame.

I remember the good old days, when every movie just features high-end Dell computers.

Ditto; I asked for a Caterina Murino for Christmas, but no such luck.Yeah, I'd like one of those Eva Greens.
Is she the Chrismas you asked for after The World is not Enough.

Some things I saw I liked...like the Omega (for my dad and bro or for me to collect) I would like that Aston Martin. I drink Smirnoff Vodka from time to time. I will be buying a bottle of Bollinger soon and a Walther, probably a PPK.

I'm saving it for a particular occassion (which if all goes well, will be announced hereabouts in five weeks). If all goes well, then I'll find out in December how the Bollinger is.I picked up a bottle of Bollinger and I've definitely been meaning to pick up a Walther myself.Some things I saw I liked...like the Omega (for my dad and bro or for me to collect) I would like that Aston Martin.

I'm not a big enough Sony fan to buy their stuff. Not on the recommendation of a movie, even CR, anyway.
Someone recently asked David Lynch about product placement in movies. He said, "Bull![[censored]](https://debrief.commanderbond.net/topic/39822-product-placement-did-it-work-on-you/style_emoticons/default/censored.gif)
*ing ". Which is pretty amazing cuz how do you pronounce "*" anyhow? You tell 'em David!
I was already going to buy an Aston Martin, the PPK (special ed) and an Omega. Send off for the Omega catalog, it is very nice.

I've had two bottles of Bollinger Grand Annee 1990.
One of the best Champagnes I've ever had.
