I wasn't taken out of the movie for the simple reason that I don't listen to fucking top 40 and haven't bought a current album in at least five years. I just don't care.
That said, I don't find pop music in movies that distracting anyway. Sometimes it can be if it's hideously inappropriate or the filmmakers don't understand the song. For example, I will NEVER understand why characters in movies will slow-dance to "Every Breath You Take." IT'S A SONG ABOUT STALKING!!!
Another victim is usually Green Day's "Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)" They played it over the documentary before the Seinfeld finale, and I laughed my ass off. People treat it as a sweet sentimental song, as opposed to the "my ex can fuck off and die" song it actually is.
