sad....if this a try at being funny/clever..... this will surely work in reverse gear for the brand....it is a good idea to be funny not mean!
'It's good, so you don't have to be' is the most 'done' idea ever. The only difference is it's usually done well.
I'm not sure if it's the most done idea ever, but this concept feels prettttttieeee familiar by now.
they just invented bart simpson.
My god...the art needs so much work I don't even bother about the bad idea
I don't think this is responsible advertisement.
Danda
I don't think this is responsible advertisement
the souffle is great!
even this ad cant prevent me from buying!
Really? 'Cause it sure can prevent me.
Excuse me, I didn't finish my comment before I hit the button. I was going to say, this ad can prevent me from buying, because it prevents me from trying.
I had never heard of the product, and I don't go to Burger King regularly, so I never would have heard of it without an ad campaign.
I'm the kind of person these ads need to reach. Ads are not little TV shows to entertain the fans, who already like the product. They're meant to pull in people who would otherwise not even *consider* buying the product.
This ad fails, because while it *informs* me of the product, the nasty content turns me off so much that I decide I don't even want to try the product, so I return to my original state, my comfortable ignorance regarding Burger King.
