      “Product” movies are all the rage. I could totally see them doing an Aspirin movie.

    I was gonna post a rant railing against this obvious money-grab (shilling, product placement, half the budget is marketing/promotion blah blah blah) when, utilizing my encyclopedic memory of the moving image, I realized this type of “cinema” is nothing new. The only real difference is that now it is no longer an afterthought but an integral part of the plan, an efficient, organized, concerted cross-media marketing ploy. It’s not meta, it’s nostalgia rationalization; it’s not smart, it’s calculated.

    Brand immersion my ass.

    This is perhaps bad news for Lena Dunham, whom Mattel has lined up to helm “Polly Pocket.”
