Macbook Pro in Supernatural

Pickings are kinda slow for the iPhone in the show that I'm watching. The Macbook Pro is a mainstay though.

The Winchester brothers, Sam and Dean, played by Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, seem to be quite loyal to their Blackberry and Nokia phones.

They're pretty loyal too, to their notebook of choice.


It isn't just the Macbook that makes guest appearances. iPods are also used in the TV series.


And of course, Sam Winchester's phone of choice, although isn't an iPhone, is also a reliable.

Miley Cyrus and Demi Moore in LOL

So a couple of months back I posted a poster of LOL, with Miley Cyrus on an iPhone. So I endured watching the movie to get screen caps of the phone, and laptops that they were using.



Demi Moore played the role of Miley's mother, and throughout she used a black iPhone 4/4S and a Macbook Pro.






Miley plays Lola, the high school kid discovering love. She does this while keeping in constant communication with her friends via her iPhone and Macbook Pro.

Not everybody in the film uses an iPhone though, and that's about as realistic as it gets. I actually started this site as I used to be, or to some degree still am, a crackberry - and was looking for a site similar to Celebrity Blackberry Sightings. That site is long gone now, and as an ode to it, let me publish some screen caps of the Blackberries that were used in the film.

Here's one of Lola's friends on a purple Blackberry Curve 8520:


And Lola's boyfriend uses a Blackberry Bold 9000:


Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol

The iPhone isn't just used by celebrities. It is a celebrity in its own right. Was watching Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol the other day, and the first few scenes displayed the iPhone prominently. Here are some screen caps of the iPhone in action.



Here's a shot of Ethan Hunt using the iPhone to decrypt a password lock:


The iPad is also used in the film:


Ethan Hunt was also assisted in escaping his prison cell by a Macbook Air:


And here they are in Dubai with a Macbook Air and iPhone hacking into a hotel's server:
