Apparently, someone found a new place to advertise!</p> <p>If the pic is unclear, the sticker reads, "Now on 2-disc DVD Disney's Peter Pan". This was on my tomato. I'm not sure why Disney is interested in produce, but maybe it's an open ad space.</p> </blockquote> <p>We're not sure about the conceptual link between the ad unit and the product either. Maybe Disney expects viewers won't enjoy the film. <small>— BEN POPKEN</small></p> <p>Apply directly to the screen during "What Made The Red Man Red." That song sucks. <small>— MEGHANN MARCO</small></p>
