Re: [scifinoir2] Re: Crazy Burger King Ads offend Mental Health Group
I loved the commercials. I thought that they were going to make it into a short series and make it something like 24. I think the difference between Jack in the box and Burger king is that they use humor in their commercials. BK also makes them a little edgy to appeal to the younger males. Ever see the Chicken punk band or the chicken webcast?

Last year Jack in the box had to pull a series of ads that featured a group of angry mothers. (anyone remember this ad?) They were out to kill jack because he made the grilled cheese sandwich to well. On Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 5:30 PM, Martin Baxter martinbaxt...@gmail.comwrote: Scared BK enough to pull the ads, pal.

I'm old (53 and 11/12ths) so when I saw the first of the Burger King King commercials I was like WTF? Later, I discovered the commercials weren't aimed at me (go figure!), they were aimed at super users, those young, 18 to 30 year olds who frequent their local Burger King establishment 3 to 4 times a week (often late at night). These super-users are the backbone of the Burger King business and are the target of the current campaign. ~rave? --- In scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com, Aubrey Leatherwood aubrey.leatherw...@... wrote: I love the creepy king!
