Give BK credit for having some big balls to go along with their "super seven incher"...

SouthStndJunkie · 06-24-2009, 11:29 AM

Actually, it looks pretty damn good, but I don't know if I can ask for the 'Super 7 Incher' with a straight face.

"I want a Super 7 Incher....no mayo and a medium coke."

BigPlayShay · 06-24-2009, 11:36 AM

Crispin Porter + Bogusky is the ad agency behind this. They have offices in Boulder and Miami. I like what they have done with the BK brand up to this point, but this is kind of ridiculous.

Garcia Bronco · 06-24-2009, 11:37 AM

BK has the worst awkward and disgusting disturbing ads. Except for the King...those are funny.

I thought it was a fake ad....but it's real.....this is funny.....an article from Reuters, today.

Burger King Blows Its Marketing Wad

(NOTE: Like everyone else who has written about this, I initially blamed the ad campaign on Crispin Porter & Bogusky, the agency that handles Burger King's ads in the United States. Although this latest campaign, apparently limited to Singapore, seems to fit in, sort of, with Crispin Porter's other campaigns aimed at young men, a Crispin Porter spokeswoman has confirmed that another agency is responsible for it. I have updated the rest of this post to omit references to Crispin Porter. )

Burger King's (BKC) increasingly obnoxious attempts to lure young dopes to its horrible food may have gone too far this time. Some (likely slightly older) dopes have come up with a print ad shamelessly evoking oral sex to peddle the "BK Super Seven Incher" in Singapore.

I can't help but imagine a fellow in a backward ball cap and cargo shorts, his pockets full of roofies, writing this copy for the oblong sandwich:

IT'LL BLOW YOUR MIND AWAY. Fill your desire for something long, juicy and flame-grilled with the NEW BK SUPER SEVEN INCHER. Yearn for more after you taste the mind-blowing burger that comes with a single beef patty, topped with American cheese, crispy onions and the A1 Thick and Hearty Steak Sauce.

They got two "blows" in there. Nice. The sandwich (by itself an obscenity), slathered in unnaturally ultra-white mayonnaise, is floating in the air directly across from the disturbingly pale profile of a young, gape-mouthed woman who looks frightened to death of the manly meat. Sexy!

But, now, wait a minute. Let's look at that copy again. The ad is aimed at young men, right? Of course it is. So why does it tell them to "fill your desire for something long," etc.? Is that a purposeful bit of sublimation (know your audience!) or is our cargo-pantsed copy jockey himself like one of those guys from my high school's wrestling team—that is, even more of a stereotypical frat boy than I had at first imagined?

Hard to know.

As I noted the other day, Burger King's weird, often stupid/sometimes clever campaigns have helped to lift the chain from its depths of about a half-decade ago. But, in the United States, anyway, they haven't helped it close the widening gap between it and McDonald's (MCD), which has stuck with a more normal, value-oriented, and much more successful marketing approach.

Copyranter calls it the "most overtly blow-jobby ad I've ever seen." And copyranter has seen a lot of blow-jobby ads.

Gawker notes that the "only thing this ad is missing is the disclaimer that you'll actually get fewer blowjobs if you eat these sandwiches, but perhaps that's the 'genius' of advertising that we simpletons on the outside just don't get."

Well and I believe they had to pull those lovely Texican ads over here in the UK... though given some of the English ads over here, this new one about the 7 incher would fit um right in? damn, that's not how it sounded in my head..
