I'm with snowy and fresnelly on this. I remember watching movies as a child and thinking, "Why don't they just drink Coke? Why do they have those stupid made-up brands?" If it's done in a subtle, non-overt manner I don't mind it at all. When it's done in a blatant overbearing fashion, though, then I tend to find it laughable.

I also enjoy the previews before movies in the theatres. I don't like the advertisements since I'm already paying to watch the film.
