Comments on: Jason Bateman, Will Arnett Don’t Inspire LOLs In DumbDumb’s Prom Date http://gigaom.com/2010/06/11/jason-bateman-will-arnett-dont-inspire-lols-in-dumbdumbs-prom-date/ Tue, 21 May 2013 04:08:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Liz Shannon Miller http://gigaom.com/2010/06/11/jason-bateman-will-arnett-dont-inspire-lols-in-dumbdumbs-prom-date/#comment-485652 Thu, 24 Jun 2010 23:33:42 +0000 http://newteevee.com/?p=50587#comment-485652 I disagree, unfortunately — I know the type of product placement parody you’re referring to (so fresh that they did it in Wayne’s World!) but that’s not how Prom Date came across.

You have missed the entire POINT. If you have a pulse, you should have picked up on the fact that spotlighting the product in an over-the-top, obvious way was exactly what they were going for. It’s an ongoing joke with people who have brains that “subtly hiding” products within any form of entertainment is ridiculously distracting and lame. That’s the joke. It’s called parody, you poor little things. This was f-ing HILARIOUS. Loved it.

That’s about it…
