Subject: Disturbing Burger King commercial.....

Written By: GWBush2004 on 10/18/04 at 9:21 pm

I know I have already posted this is the ''commercials you can't stand'' thread but this crap of a commercial deserves a thread of it's own.  Maybe it is just me...

I would bet a lot of you have probably seen the Burger King commercial out now where a guy wakes up to 'the king' in bed with him.  He gives the guy a breakfast sandwhich then tries to cop a feel of the guys leg.  To me this is very disturbing.  My reaction may be a little different if the commercial ended with 'the king' dying from a .50 cailber bullet through his face.  Not to mention (again) the announcer's voice when he is saying ''meat and cheese, meat and cheese, and more baby, oh yeah, meat and cheese.''

Even though 'the king' does look like Janet Reno without makeup or a shave this commercial is so gross and wrong I turn the channel when it comes on.  No one should have to see 'the king' in bed with anyone!  Am I alone in this rant?

I didn't look at it as the king tried to cop a feel.  It was like a buddy thing...when the king put his hand on the guys leg he quickly moved it.  Not a big deal.  IMO, you are reading too much into this commercial.

That's what I thought.  I found it a little weird at first but then blew it off.

That big chicken thing bothers me a lot more than this.

I found it disturbing that those kind of ads are for a kid oriented product like Burger King. The most shocking part is not the homosexual overtones, but that the "King" is wearing a mask like they're ready to indulge in sex games after the commercial's over. (Remember Christina Ricci in "The Ice Storm" sequence.)

Fast Food commercials have become very cheesy lately. :P

Quizno's:"mmm...TOASTY"! :P
McDonalds:"I'm Lovin' It". ::)
Subway:Jared thinks his sandwich is "pure gold". ::)

But,I think Burger King is sending a message that people should get out of bed and have a nice warm meat and cheese breakfast sandwich in the morning.

Bingo.

Burger King. They had a really good alternative to the McBurger years ago but then they discovered the microwave oven and things just haven't been the same.

Now you are being silly.  A .50 caliber bullet would be overkill and possibly a stray bullet would off some guy sitting at a McDonald's two blocks away.  Especially if it's a .50 BMG.  Not only that, but the muzzle blast might set fire to the sheets.  :D

In the words of Jay Leno (who did a joke about this last night, guess I'm not alone in my rant):

Jay Leno: Have you seen that commercial with the guy and THE Burger King?  How creepy is that?  Let me tell you something, if you're a guy and you woke up with the Burger King in bed with you it is safe to say you had it HIS way. (JUST LOOK AT 'THE KING'S' FACE)

Dang I hope this commercial goes off the air soon.

The most shocking part is not the homosexual overtones, but that the "King" is wearing a mask like they're ready to indulge in sex games after the commercial's over. (Remember Christina Ricci in "The Ice Storm" sequence.)

Haw haw haw!  I lloved that scene.  The two kids start necking with the girl (Ricci) wearing a Nixon mask.  Then the girl's father walks in, "Don't you two have homework...and take that thing off!"  The Nixon mask is most apropos because the story takes place in the early '70s.  Great scene, great movie!
Hey, do you remember the costumed ghosts from the climactic portion of "The Shining"?  Wendy is running through a corridor and she sees the ghosts of two men, one in a lion costume and one in a bear costume.  They're obviously engaging in an act of homo-erotic debauchery, replayed from some decadent Jazz Age party.

Anyway, back to the King.  If the Burger King is gay and copping a feel, it's the coolest BK commercial ever, and I'll go out and get a Double Whopper!

Subject: Re: Disturbing Burger King commercial.....

Written By: onaree on 10/21/04 at 9:54 am

The reason this commercial is so disturbing to me is the fact that the guy wakes up and you know he's probably thinking, "Why does the bed feel strange?"  So, he rolls over only to be staring in the face of The King!  Only the King's face isn't real.  it's a mask.  An unchanging, always happy looking mask.  It's bad enough that the poor guy woke up with someone looking at him, but it had to be a guy in a huge mask!  This is what I find disturbing.  Sort of like clowns.

Aside from that disturbing one...how about the current one that features (Hootie) from the Blowfish as a cowboy with all the babes high kickin and working the train car?

As far as the product anyway...I won't ever eat there again as over all the years and times I have gotten their burgers, I always wind up pickick some bits out of my teeth...

When I first heard "Hootie and the Blowfish", I never thought that Darius Rucker was black, then I saw them perform on MTV and was in utter shock. The commercial isn't that disturbing, it's just filled with people who wanted some publicity, Rucker being one of those and in the extended version of the commercial, we even get to hear Brooke Burke say an actual line "come and get it". This commercial does serve a purpose though, it could be used as the casting tape for the next edition of Surreal Life, what are they up to now, season five? Joey Lawrence would be great in the show, a former teen heartthrob who has since appeared on a few quickly cancelled sitcoms since "Blossom" and don't even bring up "Brotherly Love", wow, all three of the Lawrence brothers at once and then that Disney movie...
