Now that's a tad unfortunate.

In the new Bond movie "Skyfall" bond trades his shaken not stirred martini for a Heineken as part of £28million product placement deal.

Thats a pretty expensive beer

I'm with Moonie. Raiders may be perhaps my favorite movie of all time that I religiously buy in every format - but I will not be forced to purchase films I don't really like in order to get a slightly better-looking version of one I do. BS indeed.

Oh, and a beer-swilling Bond is sacrelige!

Eh, non-English-car-driving Bond was sacrilege too and it turned out we didn't care.

Indeed, I had to look it up. While non English vehicles have been featured since the start of the series, the first official bond car not to be a British make was a BMW featured in in 1994's Goldeneye. Coincidentally, one of my least favorite bond films.

If the film is otherwise enjoyable I'll quickly forget the issue and move on. If not the issue of what he's drinking will be just one more straw for the camels back.

It has to be good because the last one sucked.

We discovered this evening that even when a theatre sells no tickets to a particular showing of a movie, they still show the movie. For this, we are grateful as we got to see The Dark Knight Rises (after watching ParaNorman).

It's probably automated and more effort to go shut it off than to just let it run. Keeps everything else in line, next movie will know when to start and all that. If you go shut it off, you have to pay attention to the time and start the next one when it's supposed to go. Just let it run, and you don't have to pay attention.
