The once and future King

Filed under Ads: Funny

AGUGHBURGERKILL.JPG

The new Burger King commercials which purposely re-animate the once thankfully dead “Burger King” corporate spokesregent in a semi-ironic, semi-scary fashion. Burger King seems to be doing that thing where it’s trying to be too hip for its own marketing campaign. “Ha ha! Wasn’t that a shitty idea they had in the 70s!” these ads say, “The Burger King looked like a stalker! For Children!” As if the ad agency responsible are a gang of order-defying rouges mocking the hand that feeds. Maybe we reading too much into it. `Boards mag has two of the ads up now, so you may decide for yourself.

Breakfast With The King and Dog.
