Starbucks Goes Hollywood

So Starbucks will hook up with Lions Gate Films and try to create some buzz about upcoming movies.

If I buy a grande cappucino, I hope no fresh-faced server tries to chat me up about the great new movie at the theatre. My level of cynicism is already pretty high, but stealth marketing from a barista may put me over the top.

I might take hostages, and force them to listen to pitches for hip, edgy products being imported by a friend of my cousin…

Thanks to Colin McKay  for the link.
