Yup. Fair enough. You are lucky that you don't notice these things. They bug the hell out of me and once you start identifying them, there is no turning back.

Anyway, so look at the long trailer. After the tag "Some Will Come To Defend Us", there is a shot of the vehicles tearing down a desert highway. Right then, they stick in a completely unrelated closeup of a gleaming Chevy logo, with the sun shinning off the grill just like any other commercial. It isn't a mistake, it isn't incidental, it is just a blatent advertising technique.

Now, to be sure, if you just don't see this for what it is, than that's cool and you will probably enjoy the movie more than me. But once this stuff starts to show up *as* advertising, it really starts to ruin the fun.
