Goddamn Conglomerates

Tuesday, after I came back from history club, I was watching TV in my living room. not too long after I sat down a commercial for the final installment of the hunger games flashes onto the screen. However, this one was different as it was simultaneously a Chrysler ad  that was telling me to go and buy a shitty domestic car with "0% APR financing for 75 months". Of course, this would've been ironic with any large corporation advertising a movie about a revolution but ,Chrysler, the company that only stayed in business because of $1.3 billion of tax-payer money and the peak of this Government's corruption, is just too much. This is of course to be expected with how corporations since the 80's have all but taken over from the independent studios and now tie in movies with merchandise and many more products, seeking to squeeze every dollar they can out of it. I just saw this as the most ironic ad ever and represents the slow erosion of the art of filmmaking.
