Answers to the product placement quiz!
1.) E.T. got drunk on Coors Beer.
2.) Tom Hanks character worked for FedEx, and of course, his best friend was a volleyball named: WILSON!!!!!!!
3.) "Dear Eight Pound, Six Ounce, Newborn Baby Jesus, don’t even know a word yet, just a little infant, so cuddly, but still omnipotent. We’d just like to thank you for all the races I’ve won and the $21.2 million, LOVE THAT MONEY! That I have accrued over this past season. Also due to a binding endorsement contract that stipulates I mention PowerAde at each grace, I just wanna say that PowerAde is delicious and it cools you off on a hot summer day and we look forward to PowerAde’s release of mystic mountain blueberry. Thank you, for all your power and your grace, Dear Baby God, Amen"
4.) Fred, Wilma and Barney all smoked Winston Cigarettes. I have found no proof that Betty ever indulged.
5.) Through some odd chess like metaphor, the scientists of Evolution discovered that since humans were killed by arsenic, the aliens could be killed with selenium, an ingredient in many dandruff shampoos, including Head and Shoulders.
6.) Ah the Back to the Future movies. How many of us have sat down and watched most, or even all of them when TBS or TNT or USA have shown them all in a marathon. We can mention the Tab/Pepsi Free joke in the diner during the first movie; or the self tying Nike's during the second. But my favorites/most notables are: In 1 calling him Calvin Klein because it's written "all over your underwear". In 2 (and 3) the many many shots of the Mattel brand hover board. And in 3 the Frisbie pie company.
7.) Taco Bell won the franchise wars. Which considering that Pepsi owns them, makes for good news for you fans of Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut when considering your future eating needs.
8.) Pepsi payed Madonna lots of money, and then pulled the video. Noticing a pattern here? Yes, that's right, Pepsi has money, lots of it.
9.) The 1932 Ford Model B was the topic of the Beach Boys 1963 hit.
10.) Guinness and American Express billboards both directly communicated with Tom Cruise's character. Other people were accosted by Coca-cola and Gap ads.
11.) "Converse Vintage 2004"
12.) Pontiac Trans Am is the only proper answer. The new KITT has yet to prove itself.
13.) Domino's is correct. The delivery man gets a lot of screen time.
14.) Apple computers. Is there anything they can't do?
15.) The Wizard. This movie was terrible. And I didn't own a Nintendo. And I didn't watch The Wonder Years. I have no idea why I've seen it.

I shouldn't get technical, but:
Are we defining John Anderton's person by the original ownership of his eyes? That seems silly. Whether Mr. Yakimoto used to view the world through them or not, they're Tom Cruise's now.
I know. I badly need to get over that movie.
Damn, I wish I'd known about this earlier. I'm too new to blogger to know about notifications (and have just been too damned busy to find out how), but this would have been a really fun one to guess on.
