Anyone else tired of seeing only Macs in all movies, shows, and media? - General

Like I'm not hating on them, but it's sorta creating a social norm and a huge overrating of the Apple brand ya know? I mean seriously it seems almost tool worthy.

If it is made a new movie about people living in a ghetto it might contain a normal PC. Nowdays, a mac is a symbol of fashion. It is like Alienware, a computer that is expensive mostly because it looks nice. Nobody even cares about user friendlyness or computer specs in a movie, lots of action movies even contain weapons with an unrealistic amount of ammo in one magazine! I mean, when you see a computer screen in a film or a TV show, you just see some black screen with green text on it, a normal windows desktop is a complete taboo. Also, a lot of people in todays date either own or want a mac, most of these people are the people who regularly watch a movie or have a favorite TV show that contain some well designed artwork of a device, like an iPhone or a Rolex as a prop. This is because the producers show the movie as it is modern or is up to date accordingly to how our world is today. For example if you have watched a 50's movie, it usually has at least one scene showing a house wife in a kitchen with a dishwasher or any other kitchen device that was modern at that time. Imagine if movies and TV shows contain a fully modded rig or a well used outdated mobile phone, in that case, the character who owns that device is either called a geek or a poor person. Just because of movie physics; movies show you a different kind of reality, such as that everyone own a mac or an iPhone or any other device which is very popular today. Another part of movie reality is how people act, they just never act like a normal person would. For example: If a guy in a movie suddenly find out that there is a bounty on his head, he will not just hide or move to another country, he'll instead murder the people who are after him like if he did it every day. Or a person that witnesses his parents getting murdered never becomes depressed later in life, he will just become a badass like batman. Short said, nothing is accurate to the real world in a movie or TV show world.

ya retarded ass shows and movies that try to depict how "hip teenagers" are by making them use apple shit. cuz its hip and perfect and if you use it you're cool

Apple probably pays them for advertising. A movie featuring a certain product is not going to make me want to buy one. [sp]FYI, computer brands seem to be a heated topic here, usually turns into a pissing fight[/sp]

Apple pays the movies, shows, and media to use their products. It's annoying, but an effective marketing strategy.

Yes, for the sound effects and intro music.

I honestly don't care if I see a mac in a movie, show, etc. It's just a computer, nothing to get all worked up about.

I hate seeing miscellaneous fruits slapped on the back of laptops.

Because no one really turns them on in them.

Has the though ever occured to anyone that PC gaming will die because in the future the only computers people own are Macbook Pros or tablets? I mean people think any PC is objectively inferior.

Games on Mac? Lol.
