Was that Hootie I just saw doing a Burger King ad while wearing a cowboy suit?

First, Vida Guerra is from FHM magazine. She’s on the cover this month.

Second, the twins with the buckets of cream –

Annie and Alicia Sorrell, the twin “kissing cousins” from the shower scene in “Cruel Intentions 2”.

I’m almost positive about it.

This commercial seems like some surreal fratboy dream come true

Brooke has the speaking part in both versions.

Err…umm…yes and no. She has a speaking part in two versions…there are three. There is a lnog one, which starts off in black and white, and has the full song, including the line “there’s a train of girls coming with a nice caboose.” The second version is I think a 30 second spot, and does not have the previous line, but ends with Brooke saying her line. Then there is a super-short version, only 15 seconds, which also ends with Brooke’s line.

I dislike this commerical for the mere fact that it runs rampant over “The Big Rock Candy Mountain” which is such a great song :(.

It just doesn’t make me think of ranch dressing. You know…because of the implied sexuality. Milk maids and all. Blech.

I love this ad. Forget ‘fallen on hard times’. I think musicians were fighting eachother for the role. “It’s an ad for a new Burger King sandwich. But, the important thing is that you’ll be stuck in people’s minds, and the set will be full of gorgeous women.” Darius really does a great job. His voice is surreally cheerfull and I don’t find the jingle annoying in the least.

(bump)

just because this thread, and the commercial, are so friggin cool

I was wondering whether or not to post the truth. Then, Oslo bumped the the thread. It’s a sign.

The truth about the new tendercrisp bacon cheddar ranch

Did anyone else think at first that they’d seen Christina Aguilera swinging on the swing? It freaked me out

Funny you ask–I thought it was Dee Snider. :confused:

It seems that we aren’t the only ones to have noticed this. Check out today’s Boondocks.

TV Guide gave the ad a “jeer.” I jeer at their jeer.

I’m with Nonsuch - this ad makes me want to break things, and it sort of bewilders me that it has such a huge following.

I dunno, there’s something about the feel of it that immediately makes me go “blah, this again” and change the channel whenever it comes on.

After seeing this commercial a few times I had to go watch O Brother Where Art Thou again. Anyone else?

Now I’m totally freaked out. I clicked to this page and saw the guy in the chicken suit come out. I thought it was just a weird movie, so I typed “die” into the command line. I thought I’d just get an error message. But the dude did a swoon and flopped to the floor! Weird, weird, superweird.

This is supposed to sell sandwich?

And I thought the TV commercial was freakish and disturbing!

Hootie and the Blowfish perform in Las Vegas…sadly at the Silverton Hotel which has a “theater” about the size (and quality) of a small high school gymnasium. Not even real seats…sort of fancy folding chairs. Tickets were $35 last time they were here.

Far cry from Madison Square Garden.

Hmmmm…

Tendercrisp bacon cheddar ranch…

The only thing in that the least bit appitizing is the cheddar.

I hope they don’t mind me watching the girls but not buying the sandwhich…

Excellent commercial. TV Guide gets a jeer from me also.

Pay close attention to the “french fries that grow like weeds” in the long version here, especially with respect to the guy on the right.
