You're looking way too much into this!

[Termite_Commander]

I mean, like, if I woke up and saw this thing standing next to my bed, my only throught would be to get my .357 out as fast as I could and, like, blow this ugly mofo back to the Ring of Hell from which it emerged.

LOL

He is a messenger of Satan, no doubt.

He is a lot better than their last character.

[Horatio Gates]

It's disturbing. Not quite Steven King novel disturbing but close

[Mathews]

Okay. I get it. Just checked out your bio. Being funny, aye!

[andyk]

Wow, I think they're pretty hilarious, personally. The one with the iron worker cracks me up!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

There is a school of thought in the marketing industry that the only important thing about an ad is that you remember it.

By that standard, it is a good ad campaign.

Corollary: There is no such thing as bad publicity.

[Buck W.]

The commercials that bother me are the BP ads with the unstaged, impromptu (ha!) environmentally correct comments made by self-righteous supposedly everyday citizens.

[MaryFromMichigan]

Yeah, that was my reaction, too.
Why would the ad agency think that creepy king would make you want to go to BK and buy anything?
Are we supposed to think, "Yeah, he's creepy. MMMM, burgers!"?

[ecurbh]

I really really hate these commercials. A lot. Almost as much as Ditech, Geico, and Vehix!

I like Burger King, but I refuse to eat there till that seriously creepy ~thing~ goes away.

[Tribune7]

And how about the one where the guy opens the blinds & thereis the Buger King just standing there.

I vote creepy.

[TommyDale]

He is gay.

[Phantom Lord]

Better than having Scott Ritter in their ads.

[N. Theknow]

He fits right in.

They wanted a mascot that sucked as badly as their french fries.

[Lancey Howard]

Yep. I said to my son the first time I saw the ads that I found them disturbing.

[End Times Sentinel]

First to predict this thread hits 100 replies?  Nothing get's the FReepers to come runnin' like a fast food thread.

"....totally creeped-out by the recent Burger King ad series...."

I agree! These ads are disturbing (in a way that detracts from the message, which is to sell hamburgs).

[AirForceBrat23]

This one is creepy: it's a scene of a man just after he woke up, and he's standing near a window - he's either at the kitchen sink or the bathroom sink - and he sees the Burger King's head peeping over his neighbor's hedge. He looks away, and the next think he sees is the silent, freakishly cheerful Burger King right at his window.

I would totally flip out and kick him in the face.

[GraniteStateConservative]

All they cared about was being memorable. And they succeeded.

[T.Smith]

These ads sure beat the hell out of those obnoxious Coq Roq ads. Man I hated those.
