Product placement info?

Paul obviously knows a lot more than I but I believe that has to do with being in a public place and anything that can be seen from a public place is fair game.

I don't want to say what they do with a can of coke in "Deep Throat" but the song "the real thing, bubbles bubbles bubbles" playing the background kinda makes the scene funny.

That's because I'm a licensed attorney who practices intellectual property law.

Why is there a "but"? Law isn't a matter of belief. It is what is.

And you're belief is simply wrong.

Zac- I remember that scene! God that was ages ago!

Zac Stein · June 23rd, 2003, 09:27 AM

Keith,

Hehe, my friend got me the DVD he even provided the receipt that said on it "educational title", we laughed all the way through it. It was a classic to be sure.

I think I saw it in like 1980 at a drive in. It was a farce more than a porn. It was outright hilarious though.

Kieth that movie sent me on the hunt for more gems...

So far my friend and I have collected, behind the green door,
debbie does dallas, deep throat, sodomania, Johnny Wadd, my tongue is quick (don't ask) and quite a few others. My biggest gem was a bootleg tape of around 60 trailers to 1970's porn films, they were a huge inspiration to a design piece i did for my masters project, everyone loved it.

Paul,

There was a 'but' because I was deferring to you. BTW, you didn't answer his question.

K. Forman · June 23rd, 2003, 10:50 AM

Zac- I had rented behind the green door several years ago. Tell me... In your copy, is there a commercial for a giant invisible box about half way through?

Zac Stein · June 23rd, 2003, 10:18 PM

Keith, I think so,

I know in one of the movies, there is 2 giant somethings that run around and eat people. :)

K. Forman · June 24th, 2003, 05:42 AM

Thank you Zac... People never seem to believe me, and I even started to doubt myself! But, I know it was really there, cause I rewound the tape and watched it again and again! It really was a commercial for an invisible box!

Do you mean the original question about getting product placement for small productions? Well, I don't know the answer to that. I'm actually going to try something similar for some travel videos I want to sell over the internet. However, I'm just as much in the dark as everyone else about whether it will work. My only edge is I can write the contract if I get a deal. ;)

K. Forman · June 24th, 2003, 12:30 PM

Paul- Watch out for those legal fees! I've heard about those attorneys :)

Paul Tauger · June 24th, 2003, 01:04 PM

I give myself the "family discount." ;)
