WHY deliberate product placement?
9 December 2006
Warning: Spoilers
I just watched this movie on TV, and while it was very, very funny, there was one aspect that riled me: product placement. The movie was completely ruined by flashes of logos, and advertising for the DVD right smack in the middle of it all. If there had been no big, deliberate ads in it, I would have been able to enjoy this movie more than I did.

Otherwise, this movie was great. I thought the characters and storyline were just wacky enough to pass muster (except for the meeting of the holiday character support group-that threw me off just a little bit) and the elves trying to fix the machine that made the naughty/nice list was hilarious (and when they called tech support they were put on hold...)

If they take out the logos and ads, I would definitely buy this movie. With 'em, not a chance.
