    Ha ha, those two pieces of product placement are so heinous in an otherwise enjoyable film. This movie is responsible for the modern obesity epidemic and getting millions of kids hooked on that rich, bold flavor of a Marlboros. Other than that, its SUPER!

          While Marlboro should probably have been reconsidered given the nature of the product, I like that they used real products. It makes the feel movie feel more real. I like that Zod was thrown into a "Coca-Cola" sign instead of a "Buzz Cola" sign or something like that. Again, it just feels more real. I have no problem with KFC either.

            KFC is best washed down with Coca Cola - too bad the chain serves only Pepsi products.

              I love the giant Coca Cola sign. Talk about an unflinchingly blatant example of product placement in a movie!
              You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
