I think Minority Report was a big one for product placements
 
Die Another Day, I remember Jay Leno making fun of all the product placement in this movie.
 
Fantastic Four
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (though they were smart to write it into the script, and it play it in a comedic manner).

Maybe 'The Devil Wears Prada' [can't remember] but it would fit in with the movie as well.
 
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Biggest Pizza Ad EVER
 
All of Bay's movies. FF/FF2 was one hell of a product placement as well.
 
Transformers was awful with it...
 
Talladega Nights has done it the best to date. Fantastic Four 2 tried to be clever and do it in a similar manner, but it didn't really fit in with the rest of the movie so it came off as forced.
 
Fantastic Four II
Men In Black II
Ghostbusters II
Back To The Future Part II

See the pattern?

Some movies just ooze so much PP it's disgusting
 
Spider-Man. a full screen of a Dr. Pepper can for a whole second and half.
 
Talladega Nights was absurd, every poster or promotional image had the Wonder Bread logo in it.

But really, almost any given movie from the mid to late 80s has far too many shots of New Coke or the NES or M&Ms or Chevy Astrovans or whatever. My favorite is Back to the Future, where not only is a DMC-12 a main plot point, but the main character, a teenage boy, orders a Tab soda in a diner.
 
Blade Trinity was horrible with product placement.

"She likes to charge up her Ipod before she goes hunting" :cmad:
 
Transformers....you can play games naming all the shameful product placement in that movie.

In defense of Talladega Nights, it was easy to do product placement because race cars have endorsements plastered all over them.

but that was the ONLY product placement in it...hell, even the soda machines had generic "SODA!" logos
 
Every Bond since Goldeneye.
Transformers

Yeah, but it just stuck out like a huge mole on someone's nose.
I, for one, am not overtly bothered when I see company or product logos in movies, but when the product placement is so goddamn obvious it pisses me right off.
 
"The Goonies" had a lot of product placement. They had Baby Ruth, Pepsi, Domino's, Mad Magazine...

And I can't believe nobody has mentioned "E.T." The only reason Reese's Pieces are still around today are because of that movie.
 
Josie and the Pussycats did it best with their product placement. They did product placement while making fun of product placement. Lol.
 
Spider-Man. a full screen of a Dr. Pepper can for a whole second and half.


And the Green Goblin flies in right next to a big Cingular billboard.

Although there wasn't a lot of product placement that I can remember, the most shameless act of product placement I can think of was in Ghostbusters. The movie starts with the logo: Columbia Pictures - a division of the Coca Cola Company. But who cares, it's the opening company logo. When Venkman goes to Dana's apartment and opens the fridge there is a big Coca Cola bottle in the center of the top shelf. Venkman and Dana have a conversatrion, and you can tell they've turned the bottle so the label is always clear no matter who is talking. It's just so obvious it's pathetic.
