You got that right. Start naming the products, Puma, Xbox, Aquafina, blah blah.

I still liked it but the ending was a tad long. Why does every director have to stick one action sequence too many into these things?

and I think it's

I usually wait for movies to come out on video. However, I was at the mall and figured...why not see a movie. I checked the marquee and notice "The Island" was starting in 20 minutes. Hmmmmm...why not???

After I purchased a ticket, I had to visit the "little boys room". Upon entering...I was amazed...ADVERTISING WAS EVERYWHERE!!! They had ads on the stalls, front of the toilets, on the toilet paper and towel dispenser...even the condom machine had an "car rental" ad on it

When I finally made my way into the theater and took a seat, I sat through 15 mins of commericals and another 10 mins of previews. Finally, the movie starts and it turns out I paid to sit through another 2 hours of a high tech commerical!

It's sad to realize that we can't enjoy a movie, wipe our ass, or buy a without being marketed to!

Where does it end???
