I always laugh when a movie resorts to the obligatory “Crash into a sponsored truck” during a car chase scene. Seems to happen a lot with foods eaten and phones used too (TV and movies)…
My favorite corporate sponsorship moment was in the first Wayne’s World.
“Wayne! Listen, we need to have a talk about Vanderhoff. The fact is he’s the sponsor and you signed a contract guaranteeing him certain concessions, one of them being a spot on the show.”
[holding a Pizza Hut box] “Well that’s where I see things just a little differently. Contract or no, I will not bow to any sponsor.”
“I’m sorry you feel that way, but basically it’s the nature of the beast.”
[holding a bag of Doritos] “Maybe I’m wrong on this one, but for me, the beast doesn’t include selling out. Garth, you know what I’m talking about, right?”
[wearing Reebok wardrobe] “It’s like people only do these things because they can get paid. And that’s just really sad.”
“I can’t talk about it anymore; it’s giving me a headache.”
“Here, take two of these!” [Dumps two Nuprin pills into Wayne’s hand]
“Ah, Nuprin. Little. Yellow. Different.”
“Look, you can stay here in the big leagues and play by the rules, or you can go back to the farm club in Aurora. It’s your choice.”
[holding a can of Pepsi] “Yes, and it’s the choice of a new generation.”

I’m intrigued by this concept, though the poster is a bit off-putting. I’ve liked Spurlock’s other films, so I’ll check this one out, sooner or later…
I think he’s pretty damn tasty, I say More Naked Morgan Spurlock
