Title: McRolling - Worse than Rickrolling?
Post by: Compynerd255 on July 07, 2011, 12:03:42 am
I'd like to get your thoughts on this. I don't know if this should be in Humor and Jokes, but here goes:

Have you ever noticed that you cannot tell that a McDonald's commercial is a McDonald's commercial until the end? For example, I once saw this commercial where it had all of these people in colored shirts running around on a white background, and it looked cool until some people in yellow shirts got into the traditional Golden Arches and the "ba dap bap bap ba" jingle played. (Sorry that there isn't an example video - I don't have access to Youtube) And don't get me started on those intricate Line Rider maps that turned out to be McDonald's commercials...

It's worse than Rickrolling! It's McRolling!

EDIT: Darn ninja'd. And yes if that thread is getting spammed with McRoll'd videos better move it in Humor and Jokes.

It's not worse that RickRolling, because it doesn't stay in my mind for a long time like RickRolling does. But it's still a funny song :P

Ever notice how at the beginning, when Ronald falls backwards on the bench fast enough, it looks like the bench is spinning?

It would be still funny, though...

I think Rick Astley's song is actually pretty good.  This one was made to be annoying. 
Maybe Astley would have been more successful in the 21st century if he focused more on being annoying.  :P

Well, this video is one of the reasons why I began to play Touhou.

Clipped
And the actual game is why I stopped. (Dammit, ZUN, did you run out of alcohol again?)

And don't get me started on those intricate Line Rider maps that turned out to be McDonald's commercials...
Got me every time...it was like a punch to the face.

Well, funny videos aside, we just have to think about how McDonald's advertises themselves. If they have to go so far as to trick us at the end of the commercial with their title and/or jingle, then that says something about them: Their product isn't worth crap. And it isn't unique to McDonald's: I've also gotten TransformerRolled (Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon) and BudweiserRolled (the "Fetch" Super Bowl commercial) in the same fashion. What do you think of this advertising?

I have to admit, though, the McRoll video is really funny.
