My "Morons think movies are REAL!" sense is tingling.

A) Dentonite Toothpaste - License to Kill, 1989 - Q supplies James Bond with Deontonite in a traditional tube; Dentonite is actually a gel-like plastic explosive, which Bond uses to blow out a window in an assassination attempt on the films villain.


B) Mentadent Toothpaste - an actual toothpaste marketed in the United States. Sold in a binary form, in a dual-tube plastic pump container, it evokes both plastic explosive and the wonderful non-existent Binary Liquid Explosive from Die Hard With a Vengeance (which probably inspired the Liquid Bomber Plot of 2006).


And I just heard on the TV news that Russia is banning carrying on all liquids of any kind.

Hooray.
