The Tetris movie is a banger. The Blackberry movie is a triumph. There are other movies about all of our favorite brands and I want to watch them so that I know which brands and brand identities connect with me on an interpersonal level.

Perhaps there is a movie about a type of car, or candy bar, that is full of intrigue and subtle but poignant advertisements that we can all enjoy?

the thing that saves them is that because the aliens are nitrogen based rather than carbon based, they are poisoned by selenium rather than arsenic - and the only place they can find selenium in such vast quantities is Head And Shoulders shampoo where the active ingredient is Selenium Sulfide

i remember watching it again a few years ago and being put off by how much of a sleeze orlando jones character is. always talking about taking showers with the girls volleyball team that he coached

also Julianne Moores character was a ditzy clutz that constantly fell into the arms of the more competent men that had to do the science stuff for her despite her being a lead scientist in her field

i dont think it was out of line for its time, but it was an unfortunate reminder of how openly lovely we were in the early 2000s, tho i guess much hasnt changed

excellent creature work tho, and some of the gags were still pretty funny, like the mosquito bit or the rich golf dude getting annihilated

I have to admire the chutzpah of Subway product placement bringing up Jared Fogel, but maybe it's just how much our sense of what qualifies as a scumbag has shifted.
