Some company is also digitally replacing billboards/posters/television content with "newer ads" in reruns. I forget who but it was posted and discussed here within the last year.
- lethologica 6y agoThat seems less egregious, at least. The TV/billboard was already there in the first place and was already playing an ad in the original version of the film. While I don't like re-writing history like this at all, it's better than digitally adding in things that weren't there to begin with.
- pests 6y agoEh, I don't agree. The tv / ad might have not been advertising anything real, and even if it were my next point still stands. The tv/billboard was choosen for a reason and it might help set the stage for the tone or theme of the movie.
- carlosperate 6y agoI definitely saw this in How I Met Your Mother in Netflix, where a movie poster on a cinema wall was (badly) replaced by a newer movie that came out after the show aired. I wouldn't have minded if it was done better, as that specific example was quite noticable, but it is perfectly possible there was a few more of those that I didn't notice.
- pests 6y agoYes thank you. I think this was the example in the article I was mentioning.
