I was coming to this thread to rant about that ad. Man Arby's, not since the Ovenmitt has a worst ad campaign.

I've never heard a New Zealand accent before and I didn't read the description until after the video so I thought it was hilarious because they were dubbing the voices or something. Couldn't understand what they were saying at first but the "LEGEND" part at the end was pretty funny.

I never got the feeling that she was supposed to be talking to them in that commercial. Like, there's no back and forth between them. It's more like she's commenting on the comments they give the chicken.

That said, I do hate that series of commercial, though. They just seem so fake overall.

In addition to all that other fakeness, I'm convinced that whenever you see a hand come into the frame holding a little card (that says something like 'only ¢99') over a shot of a sandwich, that its been superimposed there in post production. I can't quite figure out why they would go through the trouble of doing that instead of just doing it for real in the shot, but something about the way the hand moves makes me think it's not really there.

Anyone seen that commercial for, um, tacos or something, with some doofus shouting that "I'm black ops". It has quickly become my most hated current commercial.

Those match.com commercials where they showcase peoples' awkward first date smalltalk are also pretty aggravating.

I think it's so that they can change the price, if need be. Like, suddenly it's not 99c for a chicken sandwich, but is 1.99 for a chicken sandwich and a coke. Go get that stock footage and put a new hand in there!

I think the last time Wendy's filmed entirely new commercials for different things was when Dave Thomas was still around.

Ugh. Brian Wilson is in commercials for like loving everything these days. It's extra annoying because they all revolve around his whole "I'm crazy in a way that's totally wild and hilarious! But maybe also dangerous? I'm the Zach Galifianakis of baseball! Look at my loving beard!" gimmick.

It was sort of interesting when the Giants' pitcher just showed up out of the blue to games with a dyed ZZ Top beard but watching 5-odd commercials try (and fail) to straddle the line between vaguely menacing and family-friendly accesible is grating as hell. And you know it's only a matter of months before everyone else is gonna jump on this "I'm so random" bandwagon too.

I miss the days when athletes pretended to be wholesome and whitebread.

The McRib is awesome that's why, it's just a gross sticky mess that tastes like bbq sauce and garbage disposal scraps, but there's just something about it that is just loving magical and no one knows what it is.

There was a long time where it went off the menu and would only pop up in certain places, so it had a dedicated fanbase that would track it down whenever it came on the menu somewhere because people will eat dogshit if it's made artificially scarce. It's like girl scout cookies for human garbage.
