Is it just me...

I'm right there with you. The one where the guy opens the blinds to his window and sees the BK wooden smily face freaks me out. I'd pee myself if that happened to me. I don't know why they think these things are going to make me want to eat their 'food'.

I love The King! The best commercial was the one where the guy woke up to discover The King next to him in bed. Freakin' hilarious!

A close second is the one where they photoshop The King into NFL footage. The King gets a pick and runs it in for a TD! The fact that they used the traditional NFL films music slays me to no end.

Hail to The King, baby.

BK is my favorite among the fast food joints, (AKA, the only oneI'll willingly eat at) but those commercials and the earlier ones with the singing cowboy have almost driven me away....

speaking of creepy commercials -

Morgan Stanley. "when you invest with morgan stanley, you get a stalker."

That brawny commercial with the really weird semi pornographic vibe and the guy baking a cake. What on earth is that?

Good grief...I keep waiting for the "chicka-chicka-wah-wah" sound track to kick in.

Like my brother always says "I you got crunchitised by the captain, have a little captian in you and your waking up with the king, Something went horribly wrong last night."

Tongue-in-cheek. Let's not even talk about the part of that ad where the Brawny Guy uses a sheet of Brawny to clean up a blob of vanilla frosting that's sitting on the counter. No sexual references there, nosireee...

The irony of that ad is that they changed the look of the Brawny Guy last year...the marketing folks at Brawny felt that the old illustration (done in the '80s; the Brawny Guy had a mustache) looked too much like a porn actor.

I especially like the bug-eyed plastic king in their new Joe commercials for extra-strong coffee.

Talk about creepy.

 

[jaerdaph]

...or is that big, plastic-headed, Burger King guy (in the commercials) serial killer creepy?

That thing ain't right. *shudders*

I guess its better the psychopathic, cannibal animals selling meat products.

Like a Chiken: "C'mon man, this chicken tastes GREAT! And I eat DOZENS of EGGS everyday! Oh, YEAH, pass me some more Chicken Livers, with farva beans and a nice Chianti please."

Or a Steer: "These are the best Mountain oysters ever! Even if they're MY Mountain Oysters. You think that's bad, you should have seen Bill, you know what part of a bovine Flank Steak comes from?"

Or Charlie Tuna: "I've sold out. There. I admit it. In return for my own life, I'm selling out every 'Chicken of the Sea' out there. Kick me out of their school will they."

I mean, don't you find animals endorsing their own consumption to be slightly creepy?

That red X has got me all scared like!
