Tropic Thunder tops Bunny and Death Race; Mustang GT product placement in the latter

Tropic Thunder held on to the No. 1 at the box office for a second week but barely. The film scored $16.1 million at the box office compared to The House Bunny’s $15.1 million take. Death Race snagged $12.3 million to finish third. Speaking of that Jason Statham action movie, did anyone notice the Mustang GT product placement in it? Statham’s character drives the Ford in the film and that’s not all. The car crashing prison film features everything from a Dodge Ram to a Pontiac Trans Am and no that wasn’t intended to rhyme.
