I giggled a bit when he chucked the Surface on the floor. As a proud owner of a Pro 3, that's highly relatable... :D

I've never minded the on-screen product placement in movies. It just makes things more immersive, IMHO. Certainly better than the hamfisted style of advertising seen elsewhere. I'm not sure how effective it is at moving product, though.

Actually the Adidas logo was quite out of place in that movie for me - the color was really out of place in the scene (probably to draw attention), they usually try to balance the colors in the scene and this really broke my immersion. The Surface part on the other had was nice, it didn't sacrifice anything and it added an interesting detail.

To be honest I didn't even notice the Adidas logo. shrug Apparently that product isn't "for" me. Ha.

Which scene are you referring to? It looked like Strange was wearing Yeezys in the opening operating room scene, but I don't remember seeing anything else.

The one where he talks to the guy at the basketball court asking him how he's walking again - when the guy turns there's a huge (teal or blue or some such color) Adidas logo on his back that looks very out of place in that scene at least for me.
