iPhones in Movies & TV
ok I just had to see how many other people noticed that most of the time whenever I see an iPhone being used in a TV Show they are always holding it upside down lol You can clearly see the Black bottom part (2G) being held to their ear lol The 2 shows I have seen this done in is
2 and a Half Men (episode with Jenny McCarthy)
Entourage (last episode of 3 or 4 not sure)
Anybody know of any others?

Barney has had one since fall 2007 on How I Met Your Mother, havent seen the show in a while but most of the time when he used it the screen would still be on (at the homescreen)
Samantha has ones on Sex and The City Movie (it was a 1.1.1).
Stephen Colbert randomly whips out his 3G.
Various characters on Nip/Tuck (season five on..) have then and correctly use the SMS, Camera, and Timer.
All the shows and Movies I remember having a 2G (I cannot remember any 3G's):
30 Rock, One Tree Hill, Never Back Down, Make It Happen.
There are many more, but I am having trouble remembering. But almost any movie/tv show made after Summer 2007 has one (unless the show/movie has an exclusive contract with another carrier which happens alot, like Coke vs Pepsi lol

I've only seen an iPhone on Two and a Half men unfortunately. But it was pretty funny seeing it upside down.

what i always find funny is that in allot of tv shows the computers are macs, entourage is like that and ive seen it in a couple of different movies as well. cant think of their names right now but i will. i wonder why that is? do you think that apple asks movie studios to put their computers in the movies to advertise?

Sort of related: Why does the main character on Sex In The City always rock the black MacBook with the upside down Apple? Like why is the Apple upside down?

I'm not sure exactly what episode but at start of Season 5 on One Tree Hill, there's a number of characters using 2G iPhones...
One of them even gets so angry she throws hers into a river!
THAT'S when i stopped watching itWhen I said that I was 'king of forwards', you got to understand that I don't come up with this stuff. I just forward it along. You wouldn't arrest a guy who was just passing drugs from one guy to another?

LOL.
But ive seen better stuff. A man in a bus, sitting just in front of me, and that chick in front of that man
. I think he was triena show off, so he took out his iPhone and picked up a "call" (nothing on the screen) and started talkin some bul***it like "sup babe, yh im in a bus right now and you know babe...".
The thing is, she had iPhone too. She took it out and kinda waved to that guy. You could read from her face something in areas of "you dumb loser youre holdin it upside down". I was pissin myself so much that i accidentally spit on the guys back

i have to agree. i dont think that the movie looks good. it is going to be the exact same thing as the last one. i liked the first one though. original idea for a movie. but not something that should have a sequel.
