Herbie Product Placement 2

Published on November 26, 2006 by   ·   No Comments

How’s the press reacting to the loads of product placement in the Herbie remake?

  • Fully loaded with what? you may ask. Product placement, as far as I can tell. Boston Globe
  • But with Herbie, the marketing reasons grab you by the throat, shake you and scream buy a Volkswagon, watch NASCAR, buy Goodyear Tires, sign up for a Nextel Phone Plan, play the inevitable Herbie Video Game, there’s so much product placement in this thing that you want to puke. Eclipse Magazine
  • NASCAR is hot. Lindsay Lohan is hot. And a film like “Herbie: Fully Loaded” is just prime for massive product placement. Sioux City Journal
