::fibreculture:: napster making a comeback?

[Jason Wilson]

John, Terry, all

Hmmmm... it seems like it would be difficult to move for product placements
in the Italian job, what with the new mini airborne throughout most of the
film (judging by the trailers, that is). Still, I'm game (though I will
find it difficult to accept Marky Mark as a Michael Caine surrogate).

Unfortunate strip-tease metaphor given the final animation, jOhn.

cheers
Jason Wilson

nice product placement in 'The Italian Job', including a cameo role for
Shawn Fanning. Anyone know more about this?
