Hello I am new here. I have 1 question which some of you maybe can help me with. I am quit sure I have read somewhere that they really tried to have brands in the movie which should have a longterm possibility to still exsist in 2019, but it have turned out that many of those brands does not exist anymore. Can you help me. Is there a list somewhere.

Thanks alot

I know that. Just commenting, it's a real "brand" and who knows, maybe by 2019 they will have liquor right?
