It's like in a music video when the artist suddenly pulls out the new Samsung explosive device, and your heart sinks a little.

Not only is it necessary for even decent movies to be packaged within some IP, they also seem to rely on selling ad space within the movie itself.

Very bleak.

Honestly this is every car chase in every high profile movie.

They somehow stay very clean and shiny the whole time.

Then there's Dr Strange, where no car company wanted to have him crash and severely injure himself in their car. But Lamborghini was like: Well....he lives right? Here take 3!

It was Strange's fault anyway

Until they roll, at which moment the engine, gearbox and driveshaft magically disappear.

That's an extra feature they try to up-sell you at the dealership.
