Can Someone please explain this Wendy's Commercial to me?

[t3a]

Where all the people are kicking trees in the woods and this pansy with a red Wendy's pigtail wig starts talking about a juicy burger.

If Dave Thomas was still around he wouldnt approve of this shit

Saw that this weekend. Weird shit. Almost like they were going for the gay crowd with it on the logo network.

Dave would definitely not approve of this shit.. but the commercial did its job, its got you thinking and wondering about its product/commercial which is what its trying to do!

 

[RobFunk]

OK. This is a good thread. I thought I was the only one.

I just thinking "Why the hell are they kicking trees, and what is that dork doing with the trademark long red braided hair on?!"

Maybe, it's just supposed to stand out and make you remember Wendy's?!

Ridiculous commercial

 

[5starbomb]

Exactly!

yeah i took marketing in college only a few years back and we watched a bunch of similar commercials that made just no sense at all, but you remembered the commercials for how stupid they were

Seems like every other commercial nowadays are the "Cingular Wireless" ones, where the call gets drops and the person doesn't realize it and starts thinking bad things..

Same here. (Well marketing wasnt my major, was just a related class) I remember after the superbowl we talked about all the commercials and then we would mostly agree which one was the coolest and then the professor asked what was the product ? And the whole room went dead silent.

So, it pays to be off the wall. I think it'd be fun to work for an advertising agency. Kind of pressure filled though.

When I first saw it I only saw the end. I thought they were trying to pull a William Wallace or something with the hair and mocking Braveheart.

But hey, we're talking about it so it worked. And, I'm kinda hungry.

 

[RobFunk]

I want to make a sexy time with Shana Hiatt.

Enjoy the next hour or so.

 

[RobFunk]

Oh yes. This is great.

First I'm watching a boring re-run of poker after dark and making corny jokes with fucnluc and now we have a half nude picture of Shana herself.

I love this place. MLFP you are a nominee for poster of the month (if there were such a thing)
