Um. Gross and unfunny.
I like the 70’s monochrome color palette though. Music good– words blow.

The 70s KungFu homage at the end was a cowardly consession to familiar (read safe) kitsch that betrayed whatever weirdness they had achieved before that. Still better than those smarmy Jack-in-the-Box ads of late.

How Jon? Well, that’s what creatives are paid to figure out, right? But I don’t thinkg the quality of a bad idea is improved by comparing it to a worse idea. Although– the clown did work well for 30 years, so what do I know?!
Perhaps its cultural– this is targeted for the Asia market-

love it. totally bizzare and compelling. a bit pun oriented one might say but heck, it’s advertising not art. remember that in the end sex sells hamburgers, remember the paris hilton burger bite? or was that jessica simpson (they all look alike by now). if it was jessica simpson (in a bikini ofcourse) slithering across the floor, then totally engulfing the hamburger i would be sold.
