Did you ever see the movie Fight Club? It is pretty good, if a bit disturbing, and is sometimes known in popular culture for the bars of Fight Club Soap that were given out to journalists and probably also movie theater owners as a promotional item when the film was first released.  While soap-making is a sub-plot thread within the film (don’t ask) these bars of soap do not actually appear in the movie.
