I hate it when I’m ignorant. what’s a “Mary Sue”?
Ferry, you thought you were just signing on a message board, but you have inadvertently fallen into…
the Slashfic Zone! 
Oh, dear, soon Spock and Kirk are gonna be doin’ it in here. Don’t drop the soap.
Now, now, Ferry, don’t pretend to be so innocent. You knew what you were getting into when you picked that username. I mean, if I was able to refrain myself from picking “That Horse That Eowyn Rode”, you should have been able to show similar restraint.
Although, now that I think about it, I don’t think that horse survives very long, so that’s another good reason not to pick that name 
OK, OK. This is my darn thread. Take your smootchies elsewhere unless they have product placements.
-like this-
Spock: “Can I use that bar of Irish Spring ™ captain?”
Kirk: “Of course, Spock…oops, I dropped it over there.”
But, of course, you’d have to start your OWN thread about Star Trek product placements.
About Eowyn’s horse…from LotR (Houghton Mifflin all-in-one edition with the movie shot of a black rider on the cover, p. 822 ) Book Five, Chapter VI–The Battle of the Pelennor Fields: “and then Windfola had thrown them in his terror, and now ran wild upon the plain.” So that name is available if you want it.
Right after Aragon chops the head off the Uruk-Hai captain, he spins around and mugs for the camera.
‘‘Mentos, the freshmaker!’’
Frodo wakes up in bed in Rivendell. He smiles at the camera and says, “I can always be sure to wake up feeling refreshed from sleeping on a Beautyrest Mattress!”
As the camera zooms in on Saruman, we see the sticker on the top of his staff:
“Intel Inside”
When Gimli and the others see the dead dwarfs inside the Caves of Moria, we hear a voiceover commercial: “ADT Security Systems can help your business or home be secure from burglary or invasion by Orcs with around-the-clock monitoring! Sign up now!”
GOLLUM: No! It ruins it! It ruinssss it! Nasty, fat, wicked hobbit knows that rabbit ain’t rabbit without the rich, bold taste of Lea & Perrinses Worcestershire Saucesssss!
Easy one. They take Grumman or Mad River canoes down the Anduin and use Coleman or some other brand backpacks.
Coleman lanterns in the Mines or Moria. Or those big one million candlepower flashlight things. (For when you really need to light up the darkness)
Sorel boots for their march.
Or on the Orc legions! (to show how tough they are)
I love the Ben Stein idea.
The Rings of Power were made for Sauron by [insert Jeweler name here].
Marlboro brand Pipeweed.
[insert Fireworks brand name here] from the beginning of FotR.

Um…howso? Last I checked, I was female…and these would be male hobbits…I don’t think that equation equals slash. :dubious: 
Oh, and FairyDust, you are my new best friend.
Aw, shucks! I’m flattered.
And I was pretty sure of you being female when I wrote that little piece earlier in this thread.
I’m glad you like it.
Back to the OP:
After that exhausting and stressful escape from the Ringwraiths, Arwen daintily sniffs her underarm areas, turns to the camera, smiles, and says “Secret - strong enough for a man, but made for a woman!”
Looking back on this, it gives a couple of new meanings to the phrase “product placement” that I hadn’t really considered before.
When the ringwraiths bust into the Prancing Pony, the innkeeper (still hiding) grimaces and then gingerly opens a new box of Depends[sup]TM[/sup]
A friend of mine over at LJ has taken this idea and run with it.
I’ve got another one…during one of those inevitable “Frodo is falling over and weak, all is grim, all hope is lost” moments…
Dum…Dum…Dum…Dum…(pink rabbit enters playing a drum)…still going, even when Frodo can’t, the long-lasting Energizer battery…
